My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1801

'How am I supposed to stomach this?'

Then, he immediately rushed forward and gave Lloyd a kick.

'Thank goodness I came in time!' he thought.

The panic Nicole was feeling as she was held by Lloyd slowly dissipated the instant she allowed Jared to hug her.

After that, she whispered, "I'm fine. Your timing was perfect."

As of a minute ago, Lloyd was behaving as if he had lost his mind.

'He actually tried to take advantage of the scene to force a kiss upon me?!' Nicole thought in disbelief.

To make matters worse, Nachelle knew all about this, and yet, she had allowed her son to do as he pleased without calling for a cut to the scene at all.

Lloyd knew all too well how Nicole operated and how she would react. In fact, she nearly fell victim to his tricks. The humiliation she had been given made her furious.

It was then that Nachelle rushed over with her crew to help Lloyd up. "Lloyd, are you alright?"

She was appalled to see her son lying in a pile of broken glass with his back bleeding. "Are you hurt?! Oh god, you're bleeding!"

The crew member by the side immediately yelled as soon as he saw that. "I'll call the ambulance!"

When everyone else heard that Lloyd had been injured, they scrambled over to help him up.

Nachelle became livid at that instant as she glared at Jared. "Mr. Johnston! This is the Holder's film set! How can you just barge in like that!? Aside from interrupting our shoot, you've even struck an actor of ours!"

Lloyd was her darling baby, and ever since he returned home, she had given him everything he wanted while not allowing any harm or grievances to befall him. Yet, after his reunion with Nicole, he had been subjected to countless humiliations and rejections. To top it all off, Jared had now struck her son!

"Of course, we can also come to a peaceful dissolution of the contract, under the condition that Nicole gets to leave the production team from today onwards!" Jared stated, for he already had enough of this farce.

Nachelle was a fox, and so was Lloyd. Both of them had utilized favors to get Nicole to stay in the production team, and both had also schemed to take her away from him. The only reason he had allowed Nicole to become a part of it was because he trusted her. However, this did not mean that he would allow anyone to mistreat her the way they did.

"Don't... even think..." Lloyd, who had gotten up, hissed as he shot Jared a murderous glare.

He had finally gotten the chance to have more contact with Nicole, and even if he had to do so through the film, he wanted to make more good memories with her.

'And Jared wants to ruin all of that?!' Lloyd fumed.

At that moment, Nicole, who was totally disappointed with Lloyd, walked over and said, "This, I'm afraid, is not your call to make."

Dejection appeared in Nicole's eyes as Lloyd was at a loss for words. He had seen such a look in Nicole's eyes before, and he knew that the very moment she gave him that look, it meant that she would definitely not change her mind.
