My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2935

Chapter 2935

Lawrence was convinced that no matter who else he tried to find or what other plans he came up with, things wouldn't work out.

Scorpio's face had turned sour, his words sharpening. "So what you're saying is, you'd rather let that woman have it than us?" he asked, visibly upset.

"Let the best person win. After all, that's the rule with the Five Badges," Lawrence shrugged, a nonchalant air about him. 'As long as I have it, I'll do what I want with it.'

He knew he needed the Water Crest, and that Nicole was his only chance. 'Who else could pull it off?'

Besides, he thought, 'It's safer with me. How could I be at ease if it's in someone else's hands?'

"Fine, then guard your Water Crest well," Lawrence said, standing up with a hint of threat in his voice.

Not backing down, Lawrence gave Scorpio a cold, challenging look. "You can try," he said defiantly.

Their meeting ended without agreement. Scorpio glared at Lawrence before storming off.

Watching Scorpio leave, Lawrence's eyes narrowed, his gaze darkening. 'He came to test the waters, but he's clearly desperate. He might make a reckless move.'

Suddenly getting up, Lawrence headed upstairs. ’I can't wait any longer for the Water Crest. I need to get it now.'

After entering his study and turning on his computer, Lawrence, under a pseudonym, messaged Nolan, urging him to crack the game soon for an early release.

Still concerned, he sent another message to Nolan under his real identity, filled with friendly words but also subtly reminding him that he could help with any issues.

This way, Lawrence could stay updated on the game's progress through Nolan.

The next day dawned bright and sunny.

At breakfast, his family gathered in the dining room.
