My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Norah was really upset, her teeth almost sinking into her lip. But she had to put up a fake gentle smile as she followed behind the two. 

When they arrived home, the three of them noticed a luxury car that they had never seen before parked up in front of the door. 

Feeling curious, Gloria entered the house with her two daughters and saw a well-dressed man sitting across Daniel. 

Even if the man was not facing them directly, his extraordinary charm made it impossible for people to take their eyes off him. 

Norah had never seen such a good-looking man before. She rushed up to Gloria and said, “Mom, who is that person?” 

Gloria shook her head and walked in. “Hey, Daniel.” 

When Daniel saw Gloria and his daughters, he quickly got up and introduced them. “Jared, this is my wife, and this is my younger daughter.” 

As Daniel introduced Nicole to Jared Johnston, the affection on his face was plain to see. 

Norah was waiting for Daniel to introduce her, but Daniel did not even spare her a glance. 

Jared’s glacial eyes swept over the three of them, and then he stood up and nodded to Nicole. “Hello, I am Jared.” 

Jared’s words startled Gloria and Norah. 

The friendship between the Johnston and Riddle families spanned across generations. Mr. Johnston Sr. and Mr. Riddle Sr. had made a marriage arrangement for their grandchildren in the early years, and Jared was the fiancé whom Norah had been hearing about but had never met. Jared had been studying abroad before. 

She did not expect that when Jared finally returned to the country, she was no longer the daughter of the Riddle family. 

Noticing that Jared was staring at Nicole, jealousy turned into thorns pricking Norah in the heart. She felt hurt even when breathing. 

It was all Nicole’s fault for not coming back at the right time. Otherwise, she would be the only person Jared saw now. 

“Nicole.” 

The man in front of him was truly charming, but Nicole simply responded with her name and said nothing else. 

Gloria felt awkward but guessed that Nicole had just returned, not knowing who Jared was. So, she quickly explained, “Nicole’s is simple and forthright. Hope you don’t mind.” 

Jared could not help but take a second look at Nicole. “It is alright. I like such a forthright personality.” 

What he said elated Daniel and Gloria. 

Jared was the most outstanding grandchild of the Johnston family. It would be great if Nicole could get his likes.
