My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2314

Chapter 2314

"Since you care so much about Grandpa, I don't understand why you haven't visited him these days." Nicole furrowed her brows thoughtfully.

"Hmph, I don't need their fake concern," Mr. Riddle Sr. grumbled in dissatisfaction.

Raine's face turned pale, and she could only explain with a stiff smile, "Grandpa, it's just that I've been busy with work lately and didn't have time to come."

"You, a small branch, are busier than the headquarters?" Mr. Riddle Sr. said, expressing some disdain.

He really did not need these people to visit him, so as not to anger him. But he disliked this fake concern even more.

Under Mr. Riddle Sr.'s stern questioning, Raine's face turned pale and flushed alternately. She felt like she was being burned, as if Mr. Riddle Sr. was saying that she was not as good as Nicole.

"Grandpa, it's precisely because we're not as competent as Nicole that we have to work harder to gain more experience. I hope you won't be angry," James explained in a humble manner.

Mr. Riddle Sr. scoffed and refrained from saying anything further.

James secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that although Mr. Riddle Sr. did not say anything, he would not pursue the matter any further. As long as he praised Nicole, Mr. Riddle Sr. would be pleased.

"Why did you say that?" Raine asked James in a low voice. She could not help but feel unhappy.

Not only did Mr. Riddle Sr. embarrass her in front of Nicole, but now James also belittled her.
