Chapter 2086
Nicole always knew Nolan was born a clever cookie, and much more mature and wiser than the other children of
his age. Therefore, she had allowed him to pursue hacking, with her rarely denying his requests. However, she
could not allow him free rein this time; Nicole knew very well that if she did not control Nolan, things might get out
of hand. This situation was already something she did not want to see.
"Alright, I get it," Nolan said, as he was forced to agree.
"Remember, no sneaky moves," Nicole warned.
Looking at the stern expression on Nicole's face, Nolan could only nod sullenly. However, deep down, he knew there
was a loophole. Nicole had only warned him against sneaky moves, not his penchant for providing information to his
godfather.

different tune on purpose.
"Alright, Mommy. I got it," Lana softly answered.
As long as Nolan did not spout any sort of hogwash, she would be more than happy.
Gloria, on the other hand, had never seen Nicole being so stern to anyone else, so she advised with a hint of
concern," The kids are still young. You have to teach them slowly." "That's right. Well, look at the time. We should
bring the kids to sleep," Daniel chimed in.
Nicole looked at her parents and signaled Nolan and Lana off with a sharp gaze before agreeing, "Alright, I'll take
them to bed."
"Good night, Grandpa and Grandma," Nolan and Lana simultaneously said, and followed Nicole upstairs.
"Jared, the children are probably having a hard time adjusting. Don't worry too much," Gloria comforted.
Calmly, Jared replied, "Oh, it's nothing. They are still young, after all."
However, Jared had come upon the realization that Nolan was not an ordinary five-year-old child. In regard to the
hacker account, his mind jumped right into the idea that Nolan was the one using Nicole's account. This could only
mean that Nolan was a hacker. Then, he suddenly realized that on the day he took the two of them back home, the
company system had malfunctioned, necessitating someone to come over and fix it. At that time, Nicole had
admitted that it was her. But now that Jared came to think of it, Nolan might be the one who had done all the
damage.
A trace of amusement flickered in Jared's eyes for everything just seemed to fall into place all of a sudden. 'So that
is why Nolan has always behaved differently from the other kids. I've mistaken his antics for mischievousness, but it
seems to me that Nolan is more precocious than I've cared to give him credit for.'
Gloria and Daniel became relieved when they saw Jared's nonchalant reaction. After a moment, they went upstairs

"Are they asleep?" Jared asked.
"Lana is, while Nolan said he will sleep after a moment," Nicole vaguely said, not knowing how to tell Jared about
Nolan's hacking activities.
"Is he taking on tasks?" Jared candidly asked after observing Nicole's look of hesitancy.
Nicole looked up at Jared, her eyes brimming with surprise." When did you find out?"
"Just now. Downstairs," Jared replied.
Then, he grabbed Nicole's hand and took her back to their room.
Nicole soon realized that Jared had known because she said she was going to confiscate Nolan's account. And that
tiny bit of information was what led Jared to think of it. With that said, Nicole had to admit that Jared was very
astute in his observation. With just one keyword, he was able to deduce that Nolan was a hacker and was taking on
tasks.
