My Wife is a Hacker novel (Nicole)

Chapter 2663
"Let's not talk about other people now," Jared said while carrying Nicole to the bed. His eyes were dark with lust. He gently set
Nicole down and leaned in to kiss her lips.
The next day, the sun rose and shined brightly.
When Nicole arrived at the company, Patricia hurried and followed her into the office.
"Ms. Riddle, it's about the Ellison Group,” Patricia whispered. "Harvey is making preparations for a new factory. He might be
thinking of expanding it to collaborate with us. This information is being kept very quiet within the Ellison Group, and the news
isn't made public yet."
"Why is he so sure that I'll agree?" Nicole was at a loss for words. 'So what if Harvey made preparations? He still had to discuss
it with me first.'
"Maybe he's up to something," Patricia speculated. She felt that Harvey must have thought of something Nicole could not reject.
Nicole's expression darkened, realizing that possibility too.' What did Harvey devise to make me not just interested but also
compelled to concede? Could it be Riddle Corporation? Or NandoCorp, DillCorp, or BayCorp?'
After running through all the possibilities in her mind, Nicole was suddenly stuck by an idea. She instructed Patricia, "You should
tell Thomas Ellison that I'll arrange his medical
treatment abroad, but he needs to leave immediately."
"Huh?" Patricia asked, shocked. "Would he agree?"

Patricia wondered why Nicole would arrange for Thomas to leave and wondered if the matter was related to Thomas.
"Harvey doesn't have anything on me, but he knows about my connection with Thomas So there's a possibility that Thomas is
the chip in his hand," Nicole guessed. If she was right, she might have to agree to Harvey's scheme. She could not just leave
Thomas hanging, so Harvey might use that against her.
"How do I explain it to him?" Patricia asked, feeling doubtful. She could not tell Thomas that his grandson was using him against
Nicole.
"Just tell him it's my decision. Even though his health is improving, he still has to convalesce," Nicole said. She believed Thomas
should understand her meaning without explaining much.
"I got it. I'll make the arrangements now," Patricia said and left.
Nicole leaned against her chair, her expression gloomy. 'We already have a factory in partnership, yet Harvey is preparing for
another collaboration. This step-by-step plan is definitely not Harvey acting on a whim. He must be scheming something.'
Meanwhile, Harvey's assistant was in his office, reporting," Mr. Ellison, everything is almost ready."
"Good. We can proceed then." Harvey smirked.
"Would your grandfather resist?" his assistant asked hesitantly.
Harvey's expression was cold. "Ignore him. He can't do much for me."
He thought, 'Let this be that old man's sacrifice for me. Or else he wouldn't be much use providing for his retirement.'

"Alright, I'll go now," his assistant answered, leaving the office.
Harvey looked out the window, contemplating. Once his plan was complete, not even Jared could help Nicole. He had been
waiting for this day for too long.
Time passed, and Harvey’s assistant hurriedly rushed back after two hours.
"Mr. Ellison, your grandfather is gone," his assistant said nervously.
"He's gone? Where did he go?" Harvey asked, his eyes menacing.
"1-1 inquired with the school, and they informed me that he had gone abroad to recuperate. He might be on board now," his
assistant said, his face pale.
