My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1308

Chapter 1308

Jared had taken a few steps before he noticed that Nicole's footfalls were not trailing behind him.

Then, he turned around to see that Nicole was standing on the flight of steps in a daze. "What are you thinking about?”

"It's nothing. I suddenly remembered that there's something I need to take care of."

As soon as she was done speaking, she hurried back down before he could even utter a word. Jared had wanted to tell her that she could use the study room, but she was long gone by then.

"Coward," he sneered.

Nicole plonked herself atop the couch with her heart pounding in her chest. She was afraid that Jared would come back around, and so, she whirled around to check if he was.

The instant she saw that he was nowhere near her, she issued a sigh of relief.

‘If I had not taken the initiative to escape earlier, he would have stopped me. The problem now is that there is no computer in the living room and mine is all the way up in my bedroom. What should I do so that Jared wouldn't suspect anything?”

‘I can't watch TV now, or else the excuse I've given him would not add up. He will definitely question me if he finds out.’

Nicole sat idle in the living room, in which time began to slowly pass, before she took her phone out and watched videos. She suddenly thought of Zeke, and that was when she searched for his contact and called him.

"Zeke. I haven't contacted you in ages. Are you busy?" Nicole asked.

"Nicole! Let me fill you in on what I've been working on lately. It's something major," Zeke said in a hushed tone of voice.

‘Something major? What are you working on? Tell me," Nicole asked, frowning.

Two days ago, I was on the dark web and I discovered a special mission to complete. All I need to do is to complete the mission and I will get a badge from the Reby family.”

"That faction has a badge?" Nicole asked, as she had never heard of them having a badge.
