My Wife is a Hacker
MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2205-No matter how tough it got, she could rely on Sean, so there was absolutely no need for Samuel to sacrifice his dreams and passion for her sake.
âYou cheeky girl,â Mr. Riddle Sr. felt a little helpless, for there was nothing he could do but agree.
âDad, did you say that the situation is complicated?â Suddenly realizing that something seemed off, Daniel looked at Nicole with a worried expression.
Nicole flashed a faint smile and pursed her lips. âItâs nothing. The company has been quite busy recently.â
âIf the company is so busy, why do you still have the time to come here and chat with Grandpa?â a sarcastic voice echoed from the doorway.
A frown came over Nicoleâs face as she looked toward the door.
Raine and James were walking side by side, and after giving Nicole a smug, meaningful glance, Raine turned to Mr.
Riddle Sr. and greeted, âGrandpa.â
âWhy did you come back?â Mr. Riddle Sr.âs expression instantly turned cold.
Raineâs smile almost vanished, so she forced another and explained, âWe were discussing a contract and we just so happen to pass by the family manor, so we wanted to come in and see you, Grandpa.â
âHmph, I donât need your concern.â Mr. Riddle Sr. said in an unpleasant tone of voice, as he did not have a good impression of Damien and Dillonâs family.
âGrandpa, how can you say that? We really care about you.â Raine immediately defended herself.
Why does Nicole have the freedom to come whenever she likes, but I have to be on the receiving end of a scolding when I visit him? Weâre both his granddaughters!â she thought.
Thinking of Damien and Dillonâs family who were concerned about their share of the inheritance, Mr.
Riddle Sr.âs grimace became even more sour. âYou only care to know who will inherit my assets after I die!â
Raine wanted to argue, but James stopped her in the nick of time. He shook his head, indicating that he wanted her to hold it back.
Reluctant, she gritted her teeth and ultimately calmed down.
âGrandpa, we were passing by your house. Thatâs why we came to visit you. We didnât know Uncle Daniel and his family were here too. Perhaps, we came at the wrong time and disturbed you by accident,â James carefully explained with a feigned look of guilt on his face.
âYouâre alright, sit down.â Mr. Riddle Sr. said, remaining indifferent though he was no longer angered.
James and Raine sat down together, and James asked Daniel about Samuelâs condition, appearing to be concerned too.
Nicole squinted her eyes at that sight. James was truly skilled at pretending. If nothing happened after he and Raine had joined DillCorp, perhaps everyone would have been deceived by this unfavored outcast from a mediocre family.
âGrandpa, itâs about time for me to leave.â Nicole decided, as she was no longer interested in tolerating James and Raineâs pretenses.
After all, she had completed her objective of coming over today. It would make more sense for her to return to the company and do something productive.
Mr. Riddle Sr. glanced at the time. It was almost noon, and he did not want Nicole to leave yet, so he said, âIâve arranged for someone to prepare lunch. Letâs eat before you go.â
âNicole, thereâs no rush.â Daniel shook his head at Nicole.
Seeing the look of reluctance on her grandfatherâs face, Nicole smiled and agreed, âIf thereâs good food, of course, Iâll stay.â
âHo ho,â Mr. Riddle Sr. laughed, seeing how mischievous his granddaughter was.
âFather, let me give you a hand.â Daniel helped Mr. Riddle Sr. up-
âLetâs eat.â Mr. Riddle Sr. said and made his way toward the dining room with Gloria and Nicole in tow, while Raine and James exchanged glances before following suit.
They were not there to eat but to see Nicole. âThey visited Grandpa out of the blue. Whatâs their motive?â
At that moment, they were busy wondering about Nicoleâs motives for the visit, so they could not simply let their guard down.
