My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2905

Chapter 2905

"Understood," his lackey replied.

"One more thing. Contact Scorpio and tell him to do as he had promised."

If Damien truly possessed crucial information pertaining to the Water Crest, it must not fall into the hands of anyone else. Everett was the only person who could have it.

Back at San Joto, the sun was in the midst of setting, bringing with it the golden hour.

After Nicole was done with her tasks for the day, she stepped out of Riddle Corporation, ready to go home for dinner.

Seeing that Jared's car was already parked by the roadside, she smiled. Then, she made a beeline for the car and got into it.

"Let's go," Jared said after she had sat down.

Once the engine had roared to life, Nicole turned to look at Jared and asked, "Where are we going?"

While Nicole was busy working a few hours ago, Jared had already messaged her. In that text, he told her that he had informed the Riddles that the both of them would not be going home for dinner. This piqued her curiosity, making her wonder if Jared was planning to bring her somewhere special.

Remaining ambiguous, Jared simply looked at her and smiled. "Dinner."

"Just dinner?" Nicole asked in shock. 'Is it really just a simple dinner? Nothing else?'

"Yes." Jared gave her hands a light squeeze. "Just dinner."

"In that case, we can just eat at home. Why must we come out?" she asked.

"I just feel like I want to have something different for a change," he calmly replied.

Hearing this, Nicole laughed. "Why does it seem like you're hiding something?"

Although Jared had revealed nothing to her, Nicole had an inkling that Jared was keeping a surprise of some sort from her.

Jared flashed her a mischievous smile without answering her question. Instead, he firmed his grip on her hand, his eyes glinting with affection.

After Jared had spoken, he removed his jacket, rolled his sleeves up, and made his way to the bar.

Then, he personally brewed Nicole a cup of coffee and served it to her. "I'm cooking dinner tonight."

Needless to say, Nicole was pleasantly surprised. "You're making dinner on your own?"

"Whenever you came here in the past, I was always here to serve you." Jared flashed her a smile and entered the kitchen.

Nicole trailed her fingers around the rim of the coffee cup, recalling the memories of her time at the coffeehouse back when she was still at school. Indeed, Jared was always here to make her fish and chips with a side of her favorite coffee. While she was reminiscing, a beaming smile crossed her face.

A sudden thought then occurred to Nicole, and that was when she realized that today was a special day.

"That's it!" Nicole's grin grew even wider as a surge of warmth emanated from within.

Today was the anniversary of their first time meeting each other, and Jared had actually remembered it. If Jared had neglected to plan for this very special day, Nicole would not even have remembered it.

After a while, the lights in the coffeehouse dimmed, leaving nothing but the flickering flames of the candle to illuminate the hall.
