My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2465

Nicole remembered how things were easier for Stanley when Spencer and Samuel were still single.

Jared looked at Nicole, his eyes full of questions. "You feel a lot more stressed out now, don't you?"

"Shouldn't I be off the hook now? I have you, Nolan, and Lana," Nicole replied, her voice tinged with

uncertainty.

Jared smirked in reply. "Maybe, but it seems like your parents are even more anxious now, don't you

think?"

Nicole shot Jared an annoyed glance, unable to deny that he did have a point. "Let's head home."

Then, she sighed and thought, 'How did I even end up becoming the center of discussion?’

With a warm smile, Jared took Nicole's hand and led her to the car, and after a short drive, they pulled

up at the Riddle residence. Nolan and Lana, still awake, were watching TV with Gloria in the living

room.

"Mommy!" The kids exclaimed and rushed over as soon as they spotted Nicole and Jared.

Nicole gently tousled their hair. "Still up, huh?"

"We were waiting for you," Nolan said, tilting his head to look up at her. "There was something I didn't

understand, and I wanted to ask you about it."

Nicole’s eyes narrowed as she realized Nolan was probably referring to a task on The Hunters.

"Daddy, can you tuck me in?" Lana asked, reaching up for a hug.

"Of course," Jared replied and lifted Lana into his arms.

"They insisted on waiting up for you guys, so I allowed them to watch a bit more TV before going up,"

Gloria said with a warm smile. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"We've got it from here, Mom. You should head to bed too," Nicole said.

After sharing nods of understanding, everyone headed upstairs. Once Gloria had retired into her

bedroom, Nicole entered Nolan's room with him in tow.

"You want to go check on them, Daddy?" Lana asked Jared, clearly knowing what Nolan and Nicole

were up to.

"Let's get you tucked in first," Jared replied, giving Lana's nose a playful pinch.

"Okay," Lana replied.

She was worried for her brother and mother, but she also understood she could not do anything to

assist them in this matter.

In Nolan's room, both Nicole and Nolan had sat down, looking at his computer.

"Mom, I think a hacker's trying to break in," Nolan said in a serious tone of voice. "I shut it down right

after I caught what they were doing and haven't turned it on since."

"A hacker?" Nicole's face hardened as she powered up the rig.

"The firewall you installed detected and stopped it," Nolan explained. "I might've been hacked

otherwise. They seemed skilled. Without that layer of protection, my computer would've been

compromised."

"Let me see," Nicole said, her fingers quickly darting across the keyboard as she traced the hacker by

the trail they had left.

After a moment, she let out a sigh and stopped.
