My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 3289

Chapter 3289

Doretta and Charlie both hoped the situation would quickly come to an end to avoid any complications. Any unexpected turn of events could put Nicole at risk.

"That should be the case." Seeing Doretta's smile, Charlie also cracked a smile.

Suddenly, a fierce wind blew, carrying sand and howling as it passed.

"Be careful." Charlie instinctively pulled Doretta into his arms to shield her from the gust.

Leaning against Charlie's chest, Doretta felt her heartbeat uncontrollably quicken, a strange sensation for her.

After the wind passed, everything returned to calm.

Charlie released Doretta, looking down to ask, "Are you okay?"

Tm fine," Doretta replied, stepping back awkwardly to put some distance between them.

The sudden nervousness made her feel uneasy, even unable to look directly at Charlie.

Charlie paused, only then realizing what he had just done.

Rubbing his hands together awkwardly, Charlie also looked away.

In San Joto, Ellar came to pick up Patricia from work.

Seeing her lost in thought, Ellar let out a sigh and suggested, "If you're that worried, maybe you should go to them."

"What!" Patricia was surprised. She hadn't expected Ellar to say something like that.

"Being here and worrying won't help. You might feel better if you're part of their plan. I think that's the only way you'll stop worrying." Ellar held Patricia's hand, showing he understood her concern.
