My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1894

"Okay. Lawrence's men will come over to join us too. We'll leave after that."

"Sure." Janus nodded and left.

Nicole looked at Jared. "I didn't know you had troops. Who exactly is Janus?"

Nicole had never asked him about this before, but since she did, Jared decided not to hide it from her. "He's my mercenary."

Nicole frowned as she did not expect Jared to have a mercenary in his payroll.

Jared noticed her confusion, so he calmly explained, "It's difficult to work abroad. Before I had Janus, goods belonging to the Johnston Group and JJ Johnston were always getting stolen in shady areas. We had no other choice but to hire my distant cousin to be our mercenary..."

Hearing that, Nicole finally understood perfectly what was going on.

The JJ Johnston Group was involved in many industries, so it was not surprising that their goods had been illegally targeted by certain entities. To ensure the safety of the goods and staff in international waters, some countries would form their band of troops, business associations, and mercenaries.

"I see."

Johnston was a rare last name, so Janus definitely belonged to Jared's father's side of the family.

"Good." Jared smiled as he looked at her.

Soon after, Janus called. "Mr. Johnston, they're here. We can leave now."

"Sure." Jared ended the call and looked at Nicole, starting to get worried. "You should stay out of this."

There was a chance that a fierce war would be ignited in order for them to retrieve the Braves.

Nicole looked at him. "I won't stop worrying, not until I get to see the Braves being taken back with my own eyes. I must go."

Jared noted the persistence in her gaze and knew that she would follow him even if he did not bring her along.

"Okay, but you need to stick with me. Got it?" he asked.

He would do his utmost to Nicole, even if it meant losing his life.
