Chapter 2620
My Wife is a Hacker
Nicole gave it some thought before she replied, âPlease arrange a visit. Iâll go once I get off work.â
âNoted.â Patricia turned around and left.
Nicole leaned back in the chair and her gaze darkened.â What does Chloe want to do with so much money?â
In the blink of an eye, it was time to get off work.
Nicole had sent a message to inform Jared that she would be going to the Riddle family manor. Then, she left the office as soon as she had finished her work. She also brought Patricia along with her.
As they arrived at the family manor, Mr. Riddle Sr. was already waiting for Nicole. âYouâre here!â
âGrandpa.â Nicole went to the sofa. As soon as she saw how haggard Mr. Riddle Sr. looked, Nicole felt sad.
âHave a seat.â Mr. Riddle Sr. gestured for Nicole to sit down.
Just as she was seated, Karen served a plate of fruits and said, âNicole, have some fruits while you chat.â
Nicole looked at Karen and nodded her head lightly.â Thanks, Aunt Karen.â
Mr. Riddle Sr. glanced at Dillon and Karen. âYou may go now. If âDad, why donât you let Dillon stay here? He might be able to come up with some ideas.â As Karen spoke, she pushed Dillon down to the sofa and left.
Mr. Riddle Sr. glanced at Dillon once but did not continue chasing him away.
Instead, he turned to Nicole and said,â You shouldâve heard whatâs going on.â
âYeah.â Nicole went over specifically for that matter, and she was not afraid to admit.
âWhat do you think?â Mr. Riddle Sr. frowned. All these years, there had not been any news about the Ghost Hand, and yet, he is suddenly found. He even agreed to perform a surgery for Chloe. Mr. Riddle Sr. found all these to be weird.
âChloe is lying,â Nicole spoke with a straight face.
âDad, see! Nicoleâs also saying the same thing. I find this incident very odd.â
Seeing that Nicole also had her doubts about the matter, Dillon immediately alerted Mr. Riddle Sr.,â Dad, you really have to think hard about this matter.â
Mr. Riddle Sr. glared at Dillon. Then, Dillon felt wronged.â Nicole is also saying the same thing.â
Tm not the only one who finds it odd. Itâs also not because Iâm a mean uncle. It was clear that Chloeâs behavior seems to be weird.â
The problem was that Dillon was staying under their roof, so he dared not comment further and remained silent.
âGrandpa, at the very least we know the person she found isnât the Ghost Hand,â Nicole spoke solemnly.
Since Chloe had arranged everything, she must have a doctor and act out the full thing. So, if they wanted to expose Chloe, they would have to start with the fake Ghost Hand.
âWhat youâre trying to say is that the Ghost Hand isnât real, or this whole thing was arranged by her?â Mr.
Riddle Sr. narrowed his eyes. These two things were completely different.
âGrandpa, actually Iâ¦â Nicole paused for a moment, but she did not speak the truth. Instead, she beat around the bush and said, âActually, I think weâll understand everything once weâre done looking into it.â
Of course, Nicole believed that Chloe was acting. But looking at how tired Mr. Riddle Sr. looked, Nicole did not have the heart to tell the weird truth. Dillon echoed, âDad, why not let Nicole look into it. Iâm sure sheâll be able to find out the truth.â
Regardless, Dillon could not bear to watch his dad give away such a huge amount of money to Damien and his family. Even though the money would not be Dillonâs, he could not let Damien have it all.
Mr. Riddle Sr. sighed and turned to Nicole. âAlright then. Iâll give you some time to look into it. As for the money, Iâll talk to Chloe about it.â
Previously, Mr. Riddle Sr. did agree to pay for Chloeâs treatments. If it were not for the treatment, he would not allow Chloe to act rashly.
âAlright. Donât worry about it. I know what to do,â Nicole promised, nodding.
âLetâs eat.â Mr. Riddle Sr. did not want to talk about depressing matters anymore. So, he wanted to change the conversation topic.
âGrandpa, I wonât have dinner here. Iâm going back now.â Nicole glanced at Dillon and said, âUncle Dillon shall accompany you.
