My Wife is a Hacker novel (Nicole)

Chapter 1978

Chapter 1978

For the past five years, Jared had been hating himself for not protecting Nicole well enough, and to the extent of

blaming himself for letting the jet crash. It was one of his deepest regrets that left him living in pain every day. Jared

had a clear conscience when it came to everyone else he had to deal with. However, when it came to Nicole, the

guilt ate him up entirely knowing that he owed her a lot.

Jared did not speak for a while, his eyes were filled with sadness. Nicole could not bear to look at him.

On the other hand, Lawrence continued to attack Jared with his words that were sharp as knives. "I gave her the

power to decide for herself when she woke up. I asked her if she wanted to come back here, but because of her

son, she had to survive. She hadn't come back here for the past five years and for all these years, I was the one

protecting her, not letting her get hurt even slightly."

The last sentence Lawrence uttered out seemed to be him showing off of how well of a job he had done compared

to the time Jared and Nicole had spent together which had brought Nicole to the brink of death.

The Riddle family fell silent. They realized that it was not just Jared who was incapable of keeping Nicole safe. The

entire Riddle family were to blame too.

After a long silence, Sean took a deep breath before walking out. "Anyway, thank you for taking care of my sister

for the

past five years, Lawrence."

Both the Riddle family and Jared had failed to do what Lawrence had accomplished. Lawrence smiled. "You're

utmost welcome."

The sudden confession from Lawrence had now made him the benefactor of the Riddle family. Sean could not help

narrowing his eyes at Lawrence. 'He speaks way too eloquently for me to find any flaws in him. He's one

mysteriously sketchy guy.'

Daniel had also restrained his anger. "Forget it. Lawrence, since you're considerate and you respect Nicole, and it's

indeed our fault that we were unable to protect Nicole properly. We must thank you for taking care of Nicole and

her child for the past five years. Why don't you stay and have lunch with us?"

Upon hearing his grandparent's extended invitation to Lawrence, Nolan was thrilled, rushing up to hug Lawrence's

legs. "Godfather! Please stay. I missed you so much!"

Lawrence looked at Nolan and smiled gently before speaking affectionately, "Okay, you're the man. You call the

shots.”

Jared stared at Nolan. 'How dare they be this intimate with each other! The way Nolan called to him, they almost

seem to be the actual father and son.'

Spencer and Samuel were giving each other looks with the feeling of something was wrong, yet did not know how

to put their finger on it. It was when they could not keep up

with the bullshit going on that spoke to the butler. "Alfred, prepare some dishes for lunch today. We've got guests."

"Godpa, let me show you around the house! Grandpa and grandma's house is huge!"

Nolan had wanted this to be an excuse, so he’d have some one-on-one time with Lawrence.

Lawrence understood immediately and agreed. "Sure, let's go.’
