My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 2963

Chapter 2963

Martin was speechless at Ellar’s calmness. Ellar understood the risks, but he was willing to take the same chance Martin did when he tested the medicine on himself.

Ellar reasoned, "You guys are here. Nicole told you about the antidote and what to do in an emergency, so you won't let anything bad happen to me, right?" He hesitated a bit.

"What do you mean?" Martin asked, confused.

"If things get really bad, you'd call Nicole to save me," Ellar said with a reluctant smile. "But I hope it won't come to that. If Nicole has to step in, we'll have to give up on this."

Martin realized Ellar wanted to keep this from Nicole.

"If we tell Nicole, she'll disagree," Ellar shrugged.

"But if we hide this from Nicole and she finds out, she'll be upset with us," Cindy said, worried about the responsibility.

Ellar explained, "There are two outcomes: if it works, she won't blame you, just me. She won't stay mad forever. If it fails, she'll scold me, but not forever. I don't want to do this, but I want to help Patricia."

He knew Nicole would be angry and hurt, but he saw no other way.

"This isn't about being angry. Do you understand the risk?" Martin said, refusing. He couldn't explain it to Nicole or the Riddle family if something went wrong.

Seeing Martin and Cindy's refusal, Ellar suddenly grabbed a shiny fruit knife from the coffee table and slashed a deep cut across his arm.

"What are you doing?!" Martin and Cindy exclaimed in horror.

Ellar, holding his wound, calmly asked, "Will you help me now?"
