My Wife is a Hacker

Chapter 275

His eyes then looked at Nicole. “Falling sick this time made me clearly decide that Nicole’s identity can no longer be so ambiguous. She is indeed a member of the Riddle family, and this will not be erased by any other unrelated reasons. I shall announce her identity to the outside world.”

Both Damien and Miley instantly frowned. “Dad, this is a little too sudden, isn’t it?” “Yeah, let’s wait until you recover, okay?” Miley, too, disagreed in her response. Nicole was just a country bumpkin they had found outside. If they were to announce her identity, wouldn’t that make his sons and daughters a laughingstock?

Mr. Riddle Sr. could not even be bothered with them. “I’ve already made up my mind on this matter. The two of you don’t have to say anything else.”

With that, everyone was stunned.

Both Damien, Dillon, and their wives looked at the old man in disbelief.

Both Daniel and Gloria were secretly excited as the day Mr. Riddle Sr. finally recognized Nicole had come!

Yet, Nicole’s expression did not change much as she looked at her watch and said faintly,” Grandpa, you should be resting now.”

When everyone was eating in the dining room, he too was fed a liquid diet, which meant that he had not rested until now, and she could not let him exert himself any longer.

Miley gave Nicole a disagreeing look. “Nicole, you are just a child. How can you use such an imperative tone toward your grandfather?”

She was trying to provoke Mr. Riddle Sr.’s dissatisfaction with Nicole and waiting to see her being scolded by the old man.

Yet, Mr. Riddle Sr. instead listened to Nicole. He was not only not angry, but he also nodded in agreement as well as he slowly laid down.

Nicole’s timing was impeccable. He had indeed felt a little tired and wanted to have a good rest. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Seeing him lying down, Daniel quickly covered him with a quilt.

“Dad, have a good rest. We’ll head back first.”

Seeing that, Damien, Miley, and the rest could only leave together. As the door closed, Damien looked at Daniel and his wife hogging the limelight today and felt a little irritable. Chloe did not rush back to see Mr. Riddle Sr. wake up. If she had been around, the limelight would not have been Nicole’s alone.

As he thought of this, he gave Miley a glare. This was the good daughter she raised! The daughter was only busy with work all day and not unlike a country girl who knew when to flatter someone. Everyone went downstairs. Nicole planned to go straight back to school and did not intend to stay the night at the Riddle family manor.

Seeing her in such a hurry, Daniel felt a little distress. “You really need to get a good rest once you get back tonight.”

Nicole looked at her father’s worried expression and replied softly. “I’m not tired. I still need to catch up on classes when I go back to school.” Gloria, too gave her a pained look. “You’re going back just to study?” Nicole said somewhat helplessly. “The monthly exam is soon.”

Although Mr. Riddle Sr. had agreed to declare her identity, that meant that she would become a member of the Riddle family, and she could not afford to neglect her exams.

“Then I’ll send a driver to send you back.” Seeing how serious she was, Daniel could only agree.

Nicole nodded. Seeing Gloria’s reluctant look, she pondered a little before saying. “I’ll come back often to watch Grandpa take his medicine.”

When Gloria heard her say that, she was a little more relieved. Yet, she was bound to feel a little sad seeing her daughter leaving. “Take care then.”

Soon, the chauffeurs drove the cars over. Nicole got onto one while Daniel and his wife got into another as they left.

Damien stood in Mr. Riddle Sr.’s room as he watched them leave. He then turned his eyes toward Mr. Riddle Sr., who had already fallen into a slight sleep, and his gaze became deep.
