Chapter 761
Yet, Martin also inexplicably felt sad inside.
‘So dad would rather listen to this ambitious woman than to listen to his own son’s words?’
All these years, his father, Sebastian Wyance, was extremely strict with him, yet he was so kind to that woman and
her child and gave that child a lot of money for his expenses. Yet, Sebastian had never been so kind to him before!
Thinking of this, Martin felt even more distressed. He was already in a bad mood today and did not expect his
father to land another critical blow on him.
He had always disliked talking to his stepmother, so he just said, “Remember to tell dad to do what I told him.”
Since the McCarthy family wanted to work together with the Riddle family on that new project, he would help her
get that as long as it did not harm Nicole. Once done, Joyce would no longer keep bugging him about her family
members like a haunting ghost.
Martin’s stepmother was clearly not happy being treated so brusquely, so she quickly asked, “Martin, what’s the

After saying that, his stepmother realized that she was being quite barefaced about it, so she tried to cover things
up, “Martin, don’t go thinking wildly. I’m just afraid that I might not be able to send the complete message and
affect the affair that concerns the two of you.”
Martin, however, snorted and said sneeringly, “What do my affairs have anything to do with you? Let me
give you a word of advice. Pack up and leave my home!”
As he said that, he immediately hung up.
A peaceful night passed by. Nicole got up the next day to jog with Zeke and Austin. Sammey and the others came to
join in the fun.
Seeing the two were almost on par with each other, Nicole smiled softly.
The two had improved rapidly and should not have any problems protecting themselves now.
They were keen students and would ask Nicole about ways to disarm a technique from time to time.
Nicole patiently answered their questions, and Zeke immediately took out a pen and paper to write them down.
Austin also listened intently as he started to perform the technique. He very rarely noted things down and found
that remembering things on the spot was much more practical.
Under Nicole’s guidance, Austin felt that his thinking became much more agile. Back then, he had tried many
disarming techniques but found it difficult to break through Zeke’s evolving techniques, and after Nicole pointed it
out to him again, he suddenly felt enlightened.
Nicole’s thoughts were straight to the point. They cut out all other trivial matters like a blade and struck in the most
direct manner to catch her opponent.
She had a terrifying talent in martial arts but in Austin’s view, what was most valuable was her keen, almost
instinctual rational intuition. She could focus and gain insight into everything, and this was something others could
never achieve in a lifetime.
The more Austin and Zeke mingled with Nicole, the more they found her unfathomable.
They felt that they were like a sponge being left in the vast, endless ocean, but what they could absorb was only the
tip of the iceberg.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe distance between Nicole and them was like a chasm that could never be bridged.
Zeke had thought that he had seen through Nicole and now felt that she was even more unfathomable than he had
initially thought.
Nicole looked at the two as they were very quiet and taciturn today..
From the moment she started to talk about the techniques, Zeke started writing and did not even lift his head up
while Austin was practicing it for fear of forgetting the new technique she had just taught him.
Seeing the two being so hardworking, she sighed in delight, “It’s so rare to see the two of you being so serious
today.”
Zeke did not react as he quickly noted down the last of her lecture and did not even look up at all. “The two of you
have no problems protecting yourselves now, so just train between yourself from tomorrow onwards.”
As she said that, a glint appeared in her eyes as she looked glad.
Yet, Austin felt an inexplicable chill from the back of his neck as he looked at Nicole’s focused eyes and saw that she
really did not want to teach them anymore.
Austin immediately retorted. “No way! We’ve only learned the basics!”
