My Wife is a Hacker novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74

Jared did not respond and called the server in angrily, “Get me a steak.”

“Sure.” The server turned and left.

Nicole stared at him as if she wanted to ask him what was wrong. Jared frowned. “I’ll pay for it myself, okay?” Nicole finally gave in to eating with him at the same table, so she continued eating. Jared looked at her. It was his first time feeling defeated and resigned.

This fiancée of his was so unique that she was driving him nuts…

After Nicole bid Jared farewell, the sky was already dark when she left the café. Gloria gave Nicole a call to tell her that their driver was already at the school’s entrance to pick her up.

It turned out that everyone was going home this weekend as Mr. Riddle Sr. had arranged for a family dinner. Nicole was a little reluctant, but Mr. Riddle Sr. was rather nice to her. She had not seen her parents for a few days either, so she agreed to go home. When she walked out of school, the driver, who was sent by her family, was standing upright next to the car. When he saw Nicole walking out, he immediately opened the car door for her. “Miss Nicole, the misters have already gone home, and they ordered me to wait for you before they left.”

Nicole nodded as a response. She had seen the driver before, but he did not really talk much to her. However, he was really attentive toward Snow and Raine. After all, Dillion had a higher status in the Riddle Corporation.

At that moment, Nicole could not help but look at him twice as he was suddenly behaving extra hospitable toward her.

Karen said in sarcastic tone, “Nicole, though it’s normal for you to be unmannered since you are from the countryside, you already belong to the Riddle family in San Joto now. Don’t you think you should learn some manners? How could you let all of us sit here and wait for you?” Last time, Nicole’s family was the ones who made them wait. Now, it was Nicole alone, and she made them wait for a very long time.

The worst thing was Mr. Riddle Sr. insisted on waiting for Nicole before they started eating. Karen really did not know what was so special about Nicole. Gloria was embarrassed and was about to defend Nicole, but Daniel shook his head as he did not want her to go against Karen. As for Norah, she was gloating next to them. So what if Nicole got all the spotlight in school? She was nothing but a country bumpkin in her family’s eyes! Every one of them looked down on her! They all thought Nicole would apologize to Karen, but Nicole did not respond and looked at her watch instead. It had just hit 6:00 p.m., and the Riddle family had always eaten their dinner around 6:15 p.m. She passed her bag to the servant and said flatly, “I didn’t make you wait; the kitchen is the one that’s making you wait.”

Indeed, the kitchen only started to serve their food now. The dishes weren’t fully served yet, so how were they waiting for her? After Nicole said that, Karen could not find anything to refute. She got so angry she smacked the table and stood up as she pointed at Nicole. “Is this the way you talk to your elder?”
