My Wife is a Hacker novel (Nicole)

Chapter 310
After Nicole had settled with Mr. Riddle Sr., she was going to see Gloria downstairs. Steve and Sean had also come to the
mansion, sitting in the living room talking with each other, frowning as if they were discussing something tricky. When they saw
Nicole come downstairs, they both tacitly stopped their discussion. “You’re here, too, Nicole!”
Nicole nodded in response, her eyes staying thoughtfully on her two brothers. Sean and Steve had quickly changed their topic of
conversation, but Nicole could hear them talking about how Sebastian Wyance changed his attitude all of a sudden. But Nicole
did not know who that person was, nor did she give it a second thought. Sean did not want Nicole to get involved in these things,
and Steve obviously thought the same thing. He smiled gently at Nicole and asked, “Where are you going?”
Nicole said nothing but looked over at the kitchen at the other end. Sean and Steve followed her gaze, and their expression
turned gentle when they saw Gloria was busy in the kitchen.
“Let’s go.”
Nicole looked at Sean and Steve impassively and asked casually, “Has something happened in the company?” Sean and Steve
were both slightly stunned by her question. But it was Sean who first reacted, looking at Nicole with a solemn face. “Nothing. You
don’t have to worry about it.” Her voice was imperceptibly gentle. They just wanted their sister to live her life happily.
Nicole could hear the undertone of what Sean said and looked at them with growing, gentle eyes.
Sean had a cold personality, but he still cared about Nicole very much. “Yeah, don’t worry about that. Let’s have dinner,” he said
with a smile.
“Yeah, don’t worry about it. Let’s have dinner,” Steve also said, smiling. Knowing that they were trying to keep her out of worries,
Nicole walked toward the kitchen, saying nothing more. When Gloria saw Nicole, she fetched Nicole a bowl of soup. Steve and
Sean saw that, and Steve sighed softly. “I hope this remains the same every day.” Sean said nothing, but his expression, which
was warmer than usual, said it all. They stood quietly for a while before walking toward Mr. Riddle Sr.’s room. They did not know
exactly what had changed Sebastian Wyance’s attitude, but they had to tell Mr. Riddle Sr. about it, which was the purpose of
them here tonight. After they turned around and left, Nicole gently raised her eyes and looked thoughtfully in the direction they
had gone. Gloria looked on affectionately as her beloved daughter drank the soup. “Slow down. The soup is hot,” she said gently.
Nicole looked at Gloria. “It’s okay. It’s not hot.” As she drank a spoonful, Gloria quickly took out a napkin and gently wiped the
corners of Nicole’s mouth. “What have Sean and Stave been busy with lately?” Nicole asked expressionlessly.
Gloria’s face changed. She and Daniel were not involved in any matter of Riddle Corporation, but the tender was very crucial,
and Mr. Riddle Sr. had still divulged some details to them. Knowing that Riddle Corporation had invested almost half of its fund
into the tender, Gloria stopped what she was doing and nervously clasped the napkin in her hand. Nicole watched her
expression and seemed to have understood something. “Are things not looking up now?” she asked softly. Gloria looked at
Nicole with surprise. “Who told you this?”

Nicole looked nonchalant, and she bluntly said, “Just now, I heard Sean and Steve discussing it.
“It’s about the tender. They have been well prepared for it, but there is news that McCarthy Corporation has moved into high gear
these few days.” Gloria sighed softly and worriedly.
