My Wife is a Hacker

Nicole was aware that Lawrence believed having her would make Jared hesitant, giving him a chance.

Jared seemed about to say more, but Nicole silenced him with a kiss.

Startled for a moment, Jared quickly regained his composure, kissing her deeply.

"I should head back now. If I stay too long, there's a risk I'll get caught, and that could mess up your whole plan," Jared said reluctantly.

"Okay, see you soon," Nicole replied with a smile.

After smoothing her hair, Jared cautioned, "Take care of yourself. Your safety comes first. We can find other ways to handle everything else." "Don't worry," Nicole assured him.

Watching Jared leave, Nicole smiled. She hadn't expected Jared to risk visiting her, but thankfully, he hadn't been detected, allowing her plan to proceed.

The guards outside were still there, but at this hour, they had fallen asleep.

Restless, Nicole moved to the window, gazing into the night, her expression gradually darkening.

Meanwhile, Jared returned to the hotel.

"Mr. Johnston." Charlie hurried over, concern evident as he checked on Jared's condition.

Seeing Jared unharmed, Charlie felt somewhat relieved.

"Let's go back and talk," Jared suggested, leading the way to his room.

Once in the room, Jared instructed Charlie, "Arrange for someone to search for Nicole, but don't be overly cautious."

Understanding the urgency, Charlie nodded. "You must have seen Mrs.

Johnston." "She's safe for now, but we can't delay," Jared said, his determination clear. Committed to aligning with Nicole's plan, he was prepared to move quickly.

"I understand." Charlie grasped Jared's intention and agreed respectfully.

"Go arrange it," Jared said, giving Charlie a nod.

"Okay." Charlie turned and left to organize the task.

Jared stood by the window, gazing out into the night, his expression growing solemn.

The next day, at Riddle Corporation in San Joto, Lulu arrived at the office feeling dejected.

With no news from Nicole for two days and Jared having left San Joto, she knew something must have happened. 'But why did Nicole leave without saying anything? Could she be in danger? It's really worrying,' she thought.

"We succeeded," Patricia entered the office with some excitement.

Lost in her thoughts, Lulu startled at Patricia's sudden appearance, blurting out, "What did we do? Did you find Nicole?" "It's our plan that succeeded," Patricia explained. "Lawrence has declared bankruptcy. Also, the project you were handling, the Johnston Group's acquisition of MierMare Group, went through, and your proposal was approved."

Everything here was proceeding smoothly according to Jared and Nicole's plan.

Lulu blinked, slowly realizing, "So, we've successfully completed our mission."

She felt relieved that she had accomplished the task Nicole entrusted to her. While she couldn't help much with other matters, this was something she could do.
