My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1401

Chapter 1401

The sudden confession made Nicole choke, up and she fell silent thereafter. It was only after Jared had seen her lying down and doing what she was supposed to be doing that he went on to handle his work affairs remotely through his phone.

He was actually quite busy, but he was also worried about Nicole, and that was why he would rather stay here to accompany her.

Seeing this, Nicole had no other option but to turn her laptop on to do her work. After much thought, she sent a message to Harvey.

As of now, Harvey was the only person capable of getting through this curveball.

As expected, Max hurried into the room not long after. “Mr.

Johnston, about the company meeting in the afternoon, it would be best if you show up…”

Max closed in on Jared’s ears to whisper the rest of the sentence to him. Nicole could not hear it clearly but she had an inkling of what the tactic that Harvey had employed was. As both sides were collaborating, the employees at the company would definitely be overwhelmed if Harvey made a fuss.

Unexpectedly, Jared shot Nicole a glare after having heard everything that Max had said. His gaze went on to give her an inexplicable chill deep within.

‘Why is he looking at me like that? As if… He knew that she had done it! But wait, it would not be that strange now, would it?’ Nicole thought to herself.

In truth, Jared was not able to read her thoughts, and he could not even if he wanted to. Ultimately, he kept mum and decided not to utter a word about it. He had already stayed here for close to two hours, and as Nicole was adamant about wanting him to leave, he could only respect her wish and leave. In addition, he feared that something had and would go wrong if he did not.

“Get well soon. I’ll come back later.” Jared’s darted his eyes at her, after which he took his coat and left.

Nicole proceeded to look at Joyce. Although she was as skinny and idiotic as she used to be, there was something in her gaze that seemed different now; her eyes were filled with rage and twisted savagery.

“Tsk tsk. You are the young scion of the McCarthy family. What I don’t get is, why is it that you look more like one of those lunatics who’ve broken out of a mental asylum?” Nicole ridiculed in a cold voice.

Nicole then went on to study Joyce, her eyes brimming with condescension, “Even if I’m disfigured, Martin will still do everything he can to help me out. What about you? You’re just another scumbag who stabs others when their backs are turned.”

Nicole’s words pierced her like a hot knife through butter, shattering Joyce’s self-esteem at once.

“B****! what gives you the right to criticize me!?” Joyce rushed to the front of the window and grabbed a mirror, forcing Nicole to look at it. “Martin treated you just because he was kind! With that face of yours, what right do you have to ridicule me?”
