He was facing the window, but his eyes were fixated on his own reflection...His charming face now had a bandage over it, and he looked utterly disheveled."Just wait and see. I will return these wounds to you."'Just you wait, Jared Johnston.'And thus, it was now a battle between Jared, the bold lion, and Everett, the cunning fox.Everything had come to light, and so, Nicole had been living happily for the past few days.She did not have any problems with her schoolwork and would show up to film after classes. The recent scenes Nicole had shot rarely involved Lloyd, and so, she was mainly working with the other actors. All of it ran smoothly and the production pace increased tremendously.It was said that Chloe still refused to back down, and wanted to file a lawsuit against the Holder family's crew. However, with the surveillance footage firmly in their hands, winning was an impossibility for her. Chloe had not been discharged from the hospital yet, but she was already going
Though Stanley did not hit Spencer, he was cheering Samuel on. "Nice! He deserved it!"The dining area was noisy, with Gloria and Daniel being able to hear them before they had even gotten downstairs."What are you talking about? You're all so cheery in the morning." Gloria walked over with a smile.The twins got their act together the instant they saw their mother.Samuel then rolled his eyes at Spencer. "This jerk was saying nasty things in front of Nicole."Gloria's expression changed immediately. "Spencer, how could you do that?"Hearing that, Spencer became dispirited and turned to glare at Samuel. "Snitch."Once Gloria and Daniel had sat down, the three brothers started to behave.Sean and Steve were the last to join them, but they had been working in their study room long before they made their way downstairs. They were very well-dressed too, looking as if they had plans for later."Sean and Steve, why are you dressed in such fancy clothing?""Are you going out?" Samue
Nicole nodded. "Yeah. When I'm not out on missions, I'll be in charge of protecting the system and software. The enemies are all professionals from different countries, so I had to be the best."To her, perfecting everything was nothing but normal.But Spencer and Samuel were even more excited. "Nicole... No wonder you don't even care about Ryder!""You're on the same level as the top professional hackers!"Sean and Steve exchanged looks. 'These fools still don't know that their sister is the greatest hacker in the world.'But Daniel had too many shocking things happen these days, so Sean and Steve decided not to announce this secret.They then talked about serious matters. "But after that, our company's system received a lot of attacks. I think the Howdy Corporation is desperately trying to counterattack."Nicole looked at Sean and responded, "Don't worry. I'll create a firewall after I'm done eating."Whoever wanted to mess with her family had to go through her first!Saen s
But their parents were there, and Nicole did not want to worry them.So, Sean nudged Steve, signaling him to stop asking questions.Steve immediately understood his message and changed the subject. "She's really unlucky, yeah? She shouldn't have joined the production. If she hadn't, she wouldn't end up like this... Being paralyzed can't be treated right?"Gloria sighed. "I'm not close with their family, so it's inappropriate for me to ask them. I heard about it from others and they said she can't be treated locally. Your uncle is now trying to contact specialists from other countries, and I think a doctor called James Dade might be able to treat her."Nicole's hands froze when she heard his name.Sean saw her reaction, but Nicole returned to normal the very next second and continued eating.Sean could not help but squint his eyes in suspicion...'Nicole reacted to his name. Does she know him?'"James Dade... I heard that it's really hard to get in touch with this doctor. He has
Sean noticed Nicole's silence.Gloria and Daniel went upstairs after breakfast, planning to call Damien.Samuel and Spencer went for their extra-curricular classes, and Stanley and Steve went upstairs as they wanted to take some rest over the weekend.Sean was the only one who stayed back and looked at Nicole. "Nicole, did Chloe do something to you?"Nicole could only look back at him.The smartest person in their family was probably Sean. He had always been sharp and would always catch Nicole's subtle reactions.So, Nicole admitted and said, "Yeah, she did something to my stunt cable. But I knew it would happen, so I switched our cables."She talked about it briefly as she did not want Sean to worry too much.But how could he not be worried?Though he guessed that Chloe had done something to Nicole, he did not expect her to do such a horrible thing!If Nicole had not known about it and acted upon it, the paralyzed person in the hospital would be Nicole!After all these year
Nicole paused and told him the truth.Though Sean had already guessed that Nicole knew the doctor, he did not expect that..."You're his apprentice?!"'No wonder Nicole's so skilled. She knows everything in the medical field! Turns out, she's the apprentice of that famous doctor!'"Does this mean that... only you and your mentor can treat Chloe?" Sean was carefully subtle.What did Chloe do in her past life to deserve this?She actually crossed the only person that could save her.How unlucky was she?"It's possible, but we can only decide after looking at her," Nicole responded flatly.Nicole was never a boastful person.But her skills were definitely above all of the local doctors...Since her mentor could treat paralyzed patients, it was very likely that she could do so as well."Whatever. Forget about them. She did this to herself." Sean shook his head, not wanting to think about Chloe anymore.At the same time, he felt relieved. "I'll keep this a secret from Dad and M
Sean was watching Nicole curiously. Though he did not really know what she was doing, he still loved watching his sister opening dialog boxes and keying in codes.Daniel was drawn to Nicole as well. He could not help but walk toward Nicole and stand behind her.Nicole did not mind them and continued strengthening the firewall and perfecting the company's software."What company developed our company's network security software?" Nicole asked without looking up.Sean replied calmly, "All of our software is from the Finley family. Their software's the best in San Joto. Is there a problem?"Nicole sighed. "This is definitely not their best. From what I know, Gary and Ryder can do a lot better than this."Samuel and Spencer said something about Nicole making Ryder suffer a few days ago. It was obvious that Nicole was better than the Finley brothers, so she was definitely not wrong."The developers of this software aren't the Finley brothers. It's a very experienced engineer from the
After what happened between him, Damien, and Dillion, he did not want to be involved in things like this anymore.Nicole swept her gaze across to Daniel. She thought to herself for a moment before she started tapping on the keyboard. Then, she gained access to Dillion's computer. After that, she pondered for a while again before she went to look into Damien's computer...Then, she retrieved two documents from their computers. "Dad, keep these in case of emergencies."Sean immediately noticed something after reminding himself of how Nicole helped them with their accounts."Nicole, what..."Nicole moved her gaze to Sean. "This is the information of every ongoing project that Damien and Dillion have now, but I haven't looked at them yet. However, I'm sure that these documents will come in handy if they come looking for trouble again. I don't really know anything about business, so you guys should look at it yourself."Nicole knew that Damien and Dillion were dishonest people.She f
