My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1811

"Of course...a little." Gary embarrassedly replied.

Nicole put on a wicked smile, remained silent, and continued sipping on her coffee.

At that point, Ryder was standing next to Nicole. Noticing that Nicole was taking sip after sip of her drink, Ryder thought that he had finally challenged her.

Thus, he purposely teased her, "Why? Is the question too difficult today?"

Hearing that Nicole was finding it difficult to solve the question made Regina smirk. Initially, she thought that Nicole would be leagues above her. Yet, it seemed that she was in the same position as Regina.

What Regina did not know was that Nicole's question was a lot more difficult than hers.

Nicole noticed how provocative Ryder was, and so, she playfully smiled. "It's not hard. I don't even have the urge to solve it."

Once those words exited her mouth, the whole room fell silent in shock.

Previously, everyone had witnessed Nicole's ability with their own eyes, so much so that even Ryder could not defeat her. However, Ryder was the teacher's assistant, as well as a senior. With his reputation at stake, he could only force himself to come up with more difficult questions for Nicole. What they did not see coming, however, was that Nicole would be so candid and tactless with Ryder.

This, in turn, made Ryder feel really embarrassed.

Seeing that his crush was being bullied, Regina became furious. 'Nicole is such a shameless person! It's obvious that she doesn't know how to solve it, and yet she's being all smug about it.'

With that in mind, Regina had to help herself to a sarcastic remark. "If you don't know how to do it, just admit it. Bragging will only lead one to embarrassment."

That comment proceeded to shock everyone even further.

'Who is she?'

'Is she out of her mind?'

'How dare she challenge a genius like Nicole?'

Nicole fixed her eyes on Regina with a smirk. She did not wish to start an argument with the latter, but as of now, she had to wonder if Regina was trying to play the role of the white knight.
