Chapter 1940
Niki was praying that the 'devil' would not come after her, but at that moment, as if he had heard her prayers, her
doorbell rang. This made her very nervous.
She calmly walked over and opened the door, unable to stop herself from giving Jared a gentle smile the second
they saw one another. "Mr. Johnston, what can I do for you?"
Jared stared at Nicole, and all of his concerns immediately went out of the window the instant he caught sight of
her face. 'How can I get mad at her after five years of not seeing her?'
Jared peeked at the laptop on the table behind Nicole, and pretended to be calm. "There was an attack on my
company’s system earlier. Do you... happen to know about this?"
Niki immediately shot her sleeping son a glance. 'That little b *stard has really caused a great deal of trouble. Look
at him, sleeping so peacefully after stuffing himself full and leaving me, his mother, to deal with the mess he has

Niki felt a sense of despair knowing that Jared had come all the way to find her. Even if she were to stall, Jared
could still get someone to track the IP address down.
Thus, Niki gritted her teeth and said, "It was me..."
'I can't say this was done by my son now, can I?' she thought.
Jared frowned. "So it really was you."
'Other than Nicole, there is nobody else capable of cracking her own system.'
Jared sighed, unable to stop himself from asking, "Why?"
Then, he unconsciously took a step forward, approaching Nicole with an intimidating presence.
The sudden move prompted Niki to instinctually back away until she was cornered. 'This dude is way
too...intimidating.1
"It's a misunderstanding...I...I will find a way to fix it. I'll make you a new system, if you don't mind...," Niki blurted
out.
'I guess I can only use this way to appease the devil himself.
I mustn't do anything to piss him off,' she strategized.
However, at this time, Jared was already so close to Nicole that he could catch the scent of her hair on his nose.
'She still uses the same shampoo as before. The fragrance on her entire body. Gosh, I've missed it so much for the
past five years,' Jared thought to himself, unable to restrain himself.
Then, he placed his hands on the wall behind her, locking her in position.
"So, is that it? How do you think you can make up for the losses I've suffered today?" Jared asked in a low voice.
Seeing this, Niki felt that she was damned. 'This b*stard is so damn charming! I must be going crazy. How can I find
my adversary so attractive!? Though I can't remember what
beef I had with him before...I can't allow him to harass me like this.'
With that thought in mind, she instinctively raised her knee, driving it up onto his crotch.

His face immediately turned red. "YOU!!"
'I can't believe this girl would hit me,' he fumed.
Niki quickly took the opportunity to duck away from him, before turning around and saying, "How much is your
loss?
I'll.J'll wire you the money."
'Though Niki loved her money very much, she would not easily give it away like that.'
Meanwhile, Jared was bright red, cowering in pain with both hands on his crotch. "Do you think I am strapped for
cash?!"
'Does she really think that I am asking her for money?' he thought.
"Well, then it's impossible that you don't have women fawning over you!" she argued.
'I mean he's a desirable bachelor anyway, so how can he not have women fawning over him?’ she asked herself.
"Who said I have women fawning over me!" Jared was angry as he glared at her/ 'After five long years, I've never
thought she would be able to say such things to me.'
Niki was taken aback. 'What is happening? Does that mean he doesn't have women pursuing him? No...it can't be...'
