My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 924

Chapter 924

Chloe turned to look at Mr. Riddle Sr. “Grandpa , how do you like the Dresden Green Diamond that I asked Nicole to pass to you the other day?”

Before Mr. Riddle Sr. could say anything, Snow chimed in. “There is no Dresden Green Diamond that you are talking about. It is only an ordinary diamond.”

Chloe immediately looked at Snow in surprise. “What did you say? An ordinary diamond?”

“Yes. Raine and I were both present that day. Inside the box was just an ordinary diamond,” Snow said with certainty. At first, Mr. Riddle Sr. wanted to play down the issue, but now it seemed that he could not.

“Impossible. I looked at it when Henry brought it to me; it was not an ordinary diamond. I even checked it again on purpose before I handed it to Nicole.” Chloe looked at Snow with a shocked face.

“Nicole, what was Snow just talking about?” Chloe looked at Nicole in disbelief.

The entire family understood what it was about at this point, and they all, including Jared, looked at Nicole. “When I brought the box to Grandpa and opened it, there was indeed an ordinary diamond inside,” Nicole said calmly.

“Nicole, what are you talking about? When I took it to you, it was no ordinary diamond. I told you to be careful; have you forgotten all that?” Chloe looked at her with a puzzled face and a questioning look in her eyes.

“Why would Chloe want to self–loot? Did you take it and didn‘t dare to admit it, Nicole?” Snow held a grudge against Nicole for stealing Harvey from her, so she stood on Chloe‘s side.

“Since immemorial , embezzlement has happened again and again. You all suspect me with no proof. Are you all doing it intentionally?” Nicole glanced at their faces, and none of them dared to meet her eyes. “I will find out the truth and clear my name, but I will also not let the bad guys get the punishment they deserve.”

“Grandpa , thank you for inviting us. We have things to do, so we will leave now,” Nicole said, standing up with Jared and leaving straight away. “You all have ruined the family gathering. Is a diamond that important?” Mr. Riddle Sr. was furious.

“Alfred , find out what has actually happened. I want to punish those who cause disharmony in the family severely,” he said coldly and went upstairs.

Silence fell in the living room. No one expected Mr. Riddle Sr. to lose his temper like this. Everyone at the table looked at each other, and no one knew what to do.

“We will leave first,” Daniel spoke after a long while as he left with his family. His three elder brothers were seeing Daniel‘s sour face for the first time.
