My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2838

Chapter 2838

If he had just a little more courage, perhaps things would not have turned out this way. Fortunately, fate had been kind to him, making it so that Tia was not the one who got away.

"Martin and I..." Tia gritted her teeth, beginning to understand what Stanley was talking about. "There's nothing going on between us. I think he probably treated me well only because of Nicole."

She had never thought that Martin would like her, let alone consider the idea that Stanley might have a crush on her. However, over the years, she came to learn that Stanley would always be there to help and support her whenever she found herself in a rough spot. Perhaps that was how she gradually fell for him.

But due to their obvious differences in status, she had never dared to reveal her true feelings to herself. She believed that keeping them to herself was the best thing to do. However, that had only resulted in the both of them just silently looking out for each other, with neither of them having the courage to confess.

"Having said all that, are you finally going to be my girlfriend? " Stanley asked again, finally knowing how Tia actually felt.

Tia bit her lip and lowered her head shyly, remaining silent and unresponsive. It was not that she did not want to say yes, but she just could not utter a single word.

Noticing that, Stanley came up with an idea, in which he deliberately sighed and explained, "I don't have much time left. If I don't get a girlfriend soon, my parents will set me up with someone else. By then, I won't have the right to resist, no matter who that woman is and how compatible she is with me."

"You're going to get married?! Why the rush?” Tia immediately looked up in shock, her eyes wide and her forehead creased in worry.

Why is Mrs. Riddle in such a rush to find him a partner and get him hitched? Does she not care about who the girl is or about Stanley's feelings for the matter?' Tia wondered.

"Perhaps they think I'll never be able to find a girlfriend on my own." Stanley shrugged, seemingly helpless and defeated.

"If you're not in a rush to get married now, I can be your girlfriend," Tia replied with a solemn look etched on her face. "That way, Mrs. Riddle won't get to force you to marry someone you don't like."
