Chapter 2580
My Wife is a Hacker
MY WIFE IS A HACKER CHAPTER 2580-âNolan!â Nicole screamed, frantic.
For the first time, she regretted getting injured earlier, which had taken a great toll on her agility and dexterity.
Time was running out, and Nicole was close to having a breakdown. However, she still did her best to get to Nolan and Raine before the former could be injured.
âBahaha!â Raine burst into maniacal laughter, raising the knife to strike Nolan.
âUgh⦠Ah!â
With a sharp scream, the air in the room froze. Everyoneâs minds went blank, as if time itself had stopped, and some even closed their eyes, afraid to witness what was happening in those final moments.
But then, there was nothing but silence, a deathly silence⦠and then a loud thud.
Following a muffled groan, the first floor erupted into chaos, and those on the second floor slowly pulled themselves back to reality.
âDaddy! Nolan!â Lana cried out before running toward Jared and Nolan, before burying herself in Jaredâs arms, sobbing,â
Daddy⦠Nolan! Youâre okay?â
Jared carried Lana up, his voice soft as he comforted her,â Itâs okay, Lana. Donât cry. Nolanâs fine.
Weâre all fine now.â
Nolan looked at Jared in a daze. He was actually frightened while he was being held hostage, but he did all he could to suppress his fear as he did not want Nicole to worry.
He really thought he was going to die, but at the very last second, a strong arm had wrestled him away and embraced him.
It was the first time he had experienced such an embrace, one that Nolan could not explain, though it felt peculiar.â Maybe this is what security feels like, the sense of security from a father.â
âNicole!â June and Lulu rushed over to support Nicole, preventing her from tipping over.
Barely holding on, Nicole looked at Jared with tears in her eyes. Jared had appeared, Nolan was safe, and as she realized this, she felt like she could finally breathe again.
âMommy! Are you okay?â Nolan and Lana asked in concern, looking at Nicoleâs weakened state.
Jared approached Nicole with Nolan and Lana, after which he gently placed Nolan in her arms. As she felt Nolan in her embrace, tears streamed down Nicoleâs face uncontrollably.
âNolan, Iâm so sorry. Itâs all Mommyâs fault. I couldnât protect you,â Nicole tightly held Nolan while she sobbed, as if this was the only thing she could do to make herself feel at ease.
Seeing this, Nolan wrapped his arms around Nicoleâs neck and comforted her, âDonât cry, Mummy. Iâm fine, and itâs not your fault. Itâs that bad womanâs fault.â
As Raine was mentioned, the Riddle family and the bridesmaids finally recalled that Raine had fallen from the balcony, and the chaos downstairs was likely caused by her plunge. However, they did not know what had happened to Raine after she had fallen from such a heightâ¦
Soon, the police and ambulance arrived, with the latter taking Raine away, while the police left after they had obtained the surveillance footage from the scene.
At that moment, no one knew how to proceed with the wedding anymore.
âWe are sorry for this sudden turn of events. We wonât keep you any longer, and the Riddle family will offer you each compensation as apology,â Mr. Riddle Sr. loudly announced.
âPlease donât apologize, Mr. Riddle Sr. We wonât be in your way now.â
After sending everyone off, Mr. Riddle Sr. turned to June and Lulu and said âThe Riddle family is truly sorry about this.
About your wedding, why donât weâ¦â
Immediately, June and Lulu exchanged glances and replied, âGrandfather, the wedding has already come to an end.
Weâre now a family, and nobody has wronged us.â
