My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1359

Chapter 1359

"I've just been busy with the project. What's up?” Nicole asked him back.

"My men saw you at the site of the McCarthy family ceremony today.

What's up with that?" Jared stopped and stared at Nicole as he asked the question.

Nicole's hands froze for a moment, after which she took a bite of her dessert. 'Why does he seem to know about everything?’

"You got someone to stalk me?" Nicole looked at him with her eyes widened and asked.

"It's not stalking when you were the one who appeared right where they were,” Jared calmly said.

‘What do you mean? You're keeping an eye on the McCarthy family?" Nicole asked, having caught a small detail.

"It's none of your business. Answer me. what were you doing there?" Jared questioned Nicole sternly.

Nicole lowered her head and continued eating her dessert. ‘Should I tell him or not? If I tell him, will he make a huge deal out of it? If Joyce gets away, it'll be hard for me to get to the bottom of this. What should I do?’

"Are you thinking of a way to brush it off?" Jared said, having foreseen what she was going to do.

Nicole lifted her head and uttered, "No."

‘I guess I have no other choice but to tell him,’ she thought.

"I'm investigating someone named Ms. Jo. I followed a lead and that was where I ended up yesterday,” Nicole said, revealing some information to him.

With Jared's intelligence, it was impossible for her to not reveal anything. She could only weasel her way out by telling him a half-truth.

"Ms. Jo?’ Jared murmured the name and began to think.

"This Ms. Jo you're looking for. Is it Joyce?" Jared suddenly looked at Nicole and revealed the other half of the truth which Nicole did not mention.

Nicole swallowed and stared at him. "How did you guess it?"

After all, he was already on the move. Once the time was right, he would immediately deal with Joyce on behalf of Nicole while destroying all of the former's support system as well.

"I'm afraid we aren't on the same page on this. I must destroy Joyce McCarthy with my own hands." Nicole said, not plan to let Joyce get away that easily.

"That's easy. After I've captured her, I'll pass her to you. Then, you can deal with her as you wish,” Jared said with an icy glint in his eyes.

"Alright then.”

Nicole knew there was no way she could talk Jared out of it. Hence, she could only acquiesce to it. After all, Jared had no say in what she was going to do.

"Is Mr. Johnston Sr. going straight home to the Johnston family manor after getting discharged?" Nicole asked.

"Yes," he said.

‘In that case, should we head back to the Johnston family manor and rearrange the house for him today?” Nicole asked.

"I've already made the necessary arrangements. All you have to do is follow me and fetch grandpa back from the hospital tomorrow. He will be happy to see you,” Jared replied.
