My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2071

Chapter 2071

“The Riddle family had never chosen their heir or heiress based on seniority, but ability. So, the most capable person will naturally be the heir of this family.” Mr. Riddle Sr. swept his gaze across everyone there sternly before he looked at Nicole.

Of course, deep down, he knew very well that Nicole was the most capable and qualified person to inherit the family’s wealth. However, he also knew that it was not the right time to say that out loud.

Nicole thought about it and realized that the Riddle family had a rule like that instead of always letting the eldest person be the heir. After a moment of thinking, Nicole’s face still looked very indifferent as if that had nothing to do with her at all.

She genuinely thought so because if the inheritance was based on capabilities, she felt like her eldest brother would be the most suitable candidate. After all, she was going to get married sooner or later and she would have more responsibilities and concerns in the future.

After looking at Nicole’s reaction, Mr. Riddle Sr. felt even more satisfied, and it strengthened his decision even more. The others’ eyes sparkled like a wolf eyeing its prey. Nicole was the only calm one, exuding an air of a leader and the attitude of the head of a family.

Nicole had no idea that her grandfather had already started to treat her as his heir. She simply felt like this matter had nothing to do with them and she did not want to look at those greedy faces anymore.

So, she looked at Daniel and Gloria. “Dad, Mom, we’re heading back now. What about you?” she asked.

“Oh, we’re going back now too,” the couple said, reading between the lines.

“Grandpa, we’ll leave now. It looks like today’s not a good day to visit you. Well come here again some other day.” Nicole stood up and said goodbye.

Daniel and Gloria followed suit. Then, Dexter and Emma did the same, having no interest to stay there any longer.

After they left, Mr. Riddle Sr. looked at his two sons that were still there, wearing an unpleasant expression.
