My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1878

Gary nodded and darted his eyes at Nicole's direction.

Then, something clicked in Ryder's mind. 'Is it possible that the owner of this cafe is Jared?! In which case, wouldn't Nicole be the proprietress of this place?!'

The thought that was racing across his mind almost made Ryder spit his mouthful of coffee out.

Still, he forced himself to swallow the coffee before coughing out loud. "Really?"

Gary nodded with a serious look on his face.

"So, that's why you know the store manager so well," Ryder said awkwardly.

'It would be weird if he didn't know the taste and preferences of his boss' wife well. It won't be wise for him to mix it all up,' he thought.

Nicole noticed the weird behavior among the two brothers, and that was when she guessed that Ryder knew about her relationship with Jared.

Therefore, she did not deny it. "Yeah."

Ryder looked at Nicole in embarrassment, not expecting her to answer it so plainly.

'If this were someone else, they would be over the moon to own such a huge cafe,' Ryder thought to himself.

Ryder then stopped talking, as he felt that Claus had been staring at him. He lowered his head and continued eating.

Nicole had her coffee and lunch in peace. Soon after, the three of them had finished their lunch, and were eating the dessert that Nicole had shared with them.
