My Wife is a Hacker novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69 Nicole walked indifferently, not bothering to respond to him.

Gary followed behind her. He was questioning her initially, but he was tired of it afterward, so he just left Nicole his words, “You’re on your own,” and left.

After he left, Nicole turned and walked to Mr. Louis’s office.

When Gary walked back to class, he had a long face.

Jack and Wayne saw his expression and thought that something big had happened. So they immediately went to Gary and asked, “What’s wrong, Gary? Who made you angry?” Gary clenched the pen in his hand tightly and responded chillingly, “Nicole placed a bet with Mr. Kennedy, betting that we’ll get the first place in the Math Olympiad competition. She sure has the guts to say that, though I’m the one who’s going to clean up her mess!”

Jack and Wayne looked at each other, and Jack recalled the time when Gary was rejected by Nicole when he offered to tutor her. So he got angry and said, “Nicole doesn’t know what she’s missing!”

Wayne nodded in response.

Gary did not want to talk any further and went back to his usual lazy self as he furrowed his brows and started looking at the questions.

At that moment, in Ms. Emerson’s office. Mr. Louis was surprised as he looked at Nicole, who was standing before her. After Mr. Louis recollected himself, he smiled and said, “How can I help you, Nicole?”

Nicole looked at his kind expression as she gradually said, “Mr. Louis, I’m here to inform you that I will be attending other pieces of training, so I can’t attend your Math Olympiad training class anymore.”

Mr. Louis was stunned, but he agreed without saying anything.

After Nicole left, the staff in the office asked him, “Mr. Louis, isn’t that the student who scored a zero? Why are you so nice to her? You’re allowing her to skip classes just because she said she couldn’t attend?”

Mr. Louis shook his head. He had looked at Nicole’s assessment paper multiple times. Although her math workings were messy and slightly different than the workings in the model answers, he found it extremely special

Mr. Louis felt like he could not catch up with Nicole’s approach. A genius was called a genius because of their distinctive thought process, which was always ahead of the average joe. Perhaps, Nicole was the true genius in their school. Nicole did not care how others perceived her. She went over to the caféteria to grab a meal and gave Mr. Ellison a phone call after she was done.

Mr. Ellison was elated upon receiving Nicole’s call. “What brought you here, Nicole? Did something happen in school? Just let me know if anything happens. I’ll resolve it for you.”

At that moment, Mr. Ellison went back to the main topic. “How may I help you, Mr. Johnston?” Jared could tell that Mr. Ellison did not want to talk too long, so he did not bother asking

irrelevant things and cut to the chase, expressing the aim of his visit. “There are many skilled students in your school, so do you have any computer geniuses in mind?”

Jared tracked the information of that online account in his café, so he was even more certain that the person behind that account was a student from the Royal Creek Institute. A hacker like Lucifer was definitely a somebody in Royal Creek Institute.

That was why Jared went to see Mr. Ellison, to dig out more information about the hacker.

To a normal person, Jared’s question was nothing out of the ordinary. But Mr. Ellison’s face changed for a second before he put on his kind expression as he smiled and said, “Royal Creek Institute is just an educational institute. If you’re looking for a skilled person, you should get Mr. Graham to hire a professional. Why did you come to me?” Jared saw that Mr. Ellison was not only trying to avoid his question but also trying to fish something out from him, so Jared could not help but smile intriguingly.

“No reason. There are too many complicated people in society, so I just plan to personally train talent from Royal Creek Institute. You don’t have to be so nervous, Mr. Ellison.” Mr. Ellison seemed to notice that the way he acted was slightly overboard just now. Jared was extremely sharp, so Mr. Ellison was worried that Jared had noticed something…
