My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2666

Chapter 2666

"Mrs. Wallace Sr. How have you been recently?" Tia asked. She looked embarrassed as she met Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s eyes.

"Don't worry about it, Tia. I'm fine. Luna's been here taking care of me. Please don't pretend you're fine when you're not in the future, okay? It's worrying," said Mrs. Wallace Sr. with some agony in her voice.

Mrs. Wallace Sr. had overheard that Tia had gotten pneumonia and was at the brink of death due to her delay in getting treatment.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry everyone, especially Mrs. Wallace Sr." Tia had guilt written all over her face.

Stanley spoke up and warned, "If you don't want anyone to worry about you, please tell us if there's anything troubling you."

"Well, enough about that. Everyone, let's dig in," he then said, clapping to get everyone's attention.

Everyone quickly changed the topic and started chatting amongst one another. Tia sneakily took a glance at Stanley, an unreadable look was on her face.

'Stanley had been taking care of me for the past two days. I must've been a hindrance to his work, but nobody ever brought it up,' Tia thought to herself. She suddenly felt pressure on her, though nobody asked her upfront about her relationship with Stanley.

"You've just been discharged from the hospital. You should be eating a healthy diet for the time being. No greasy or fried food either," said Stanley.

It was then that Tia realized that the dish laid out in front of her was specially prepared for her.

"Thank you, Mr. Riddle," said Tia in an awkward voice, her cheeks flushed red.

"Goodness! You guys have been friends for so many years. Why are you still addressing him like that?" Gloria asked with a raised eyebrow.

Flabbergasted, Tia dropped her fork onto the table. "Pardon? n

"Look at you, calling us so formally. We're out strangers, honey," said Gloria. She then turned to look at Nicole." Nicole, you ought to do a better job in persuading her to stop addressing us like that. It feels like there's a gap between us." She sighed.
