My Wife is a Hacker
MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2517-The car came to a stop, after which Jared and Nicole got out of the car and made their way into the living room of Riddle family manor.
Mr. Riddle Sr. was sitting alone in the living room when he heard Jared and Nicole opening the door and entering the manor.
âYouâre here! Come have a seat,â Mr. Riddle Sr. greeted.
âGrandpa, why are you alone?â Nicole asked with a hint of confusion in her voice as she ranged her gaze across the room for people.
âAlfred went out to run some errands. Iâm perfectly fine by myself. Please have a seat,â Mr. Riddle Sr.
informed.
âThere must be something of a matter, seeing that the two of you are here,â Mr. Riddle Sr. probed.
âWow, Grandpa. I must give it to you. How did you know?â Nicole playfully stated.
Mr. Riddle Sr looked at Nicole, and that was when he replied, âHow can I word this? Every time youâre here without Nolan and Lana, Iâll definitely suspect that something must have happened.â
âNicole would usually bring her kids over. Her not doing so meant trouble,â Mr. Riddle Sr. surmised.
Hearing that, a stern expression crossed Nicoleâs face.â
Grandpa? Youâre still as sharp as ever. Youâve heard about NandoCorp, havenât you?â
Mr. Riddle Sr. nodded. âAre you suggesting we participate in the auction?â
Nicole was pleased to know that Mr. Riddle Sr. had understood her intentions at once. âYes, thatâs the initial plan. If you agree, then I will do so but if you donât, then I wonât.â
âHow can I disagree? If I donât agree that would mean Iâm just holding you back from reaching your fullest potential,â Mr. Riddle Sr. replied with a sigh in the end.
âNandoCorp was initially a part of Riddle Corporation, but now, the situation requires that we use our resources to regain NandoCorp.â Nicole shook her head as she thought about it.
âThatâs a different story. NandoCorp belongs to Uncle Damien. However, once weâve acquired it from them, it will be our familyâs once more,â Nicole said.
She did not care much about anything, for she had only one mission, and that was to acquire the company back so that it would be hers to own.
âYou have quite an insight,â Mr. Riddle Sr. complimented, feeling relieved that Nicole had a complete grasp of whatever was going on.
âThanks Grandpa!â Nicole beamed, dead set on acquiring NandoCorp after getting Mr. Riddle Sr. âs support.
There was a long pause ensued, and after that, Mr. Riddle Sr. spoke up and asked, âNow that NandoCorp and DillCorp are going to be a part of our company once more, what are your plans for it?
Can I get to know what your views on this are?â
âIâm not quite sure what exactly my plan is for now, but what I can say is that Iâll do my best in whatever way I can.â Nicole smirked.
Hearing that made Mr. Riddle Sr. a little worried for Nicole, however. âThereâs a chance she might not be able to acquire NandoCorp with ease, knowing how she said she would try her bestâ¦â
âJust go and try your best. We can talk about the rest later,â Mr. Riddle Sr. encouraged.
He knew that Nicole was really antsy about acquiring NandoCorp, and at that moment, easing her anxiety was all he could do.
âI think what you said was right. Right now, weâll have to go and do some research. We can only stand to benefit by doing so,â El la r said, his voice echoing through the room as he walked in.
âWhat are you doing here?â Nicole asked, surprised by Ellarâs appearance.
She did not tell anyone that she was visiting Mr. Riddle Sr. and had made her way here on her own to seek his advice.
âI heard that you came to the family manor, so I came over, knowing what was going on. Itâs a good thing I arrived in time to catch you,â Ellar said as he took a seat.
âWhatâs the matter?â Nicole asked, puzzled as to why Ellar had to catch her in the middle of a chat.
âItâs regarding NandoCorp actually. I overheard what you guys were talking about earlier but thereâs something else and Grandpa happened to have brought it up earlier. You know, the whole deal with the Riddle family and Riddle Corporation,â Ellar shrugged.
Lost and unable to understand what Ellar was referring to, Nicole frowned, âWhat made you think so?â
He was afraid to witness NandoCorp and DillCorp falling back under Riddle Corporationâs management, and thus, he had reached out to BayCorp for assistance.
Ellar scratched his head, and with a tinge of embarrassment on his face, he continued, âNicole, I donât mean to go against you or anything. Itâs just an honest opinion.â
