Semua Bab My Wife is a Hacker: Bab 2851 - Bab 2860

Soon, the waiter came back, bringing with him a piping hot bowl of chicken broth atop a tray.Ellar swallowed as stared at the basket of fish and chips, his cravings on full display."What's up? Are you not happy with the soup you've been given?" Patricia raised an eyebrow and asked in a semi-threatening tone of voice."No, I love it." Ellar immediately withdrew his gaze, about to consume a spoonful of the broth.The sight of Ellar's reluctant compliance left Patricia feeling both satisfied and relieved. 'This dude doesn't even pay attention to his own health.'"I know you care about me, so I won't deny that this soup actually tastes heavenly," Ellar proudly said, before grinning in satisfaction.Ellar's sudden remark took her aback, causing her to choke."Are you okay?" Ellar handed her a glass of water in concern. "Here, have some water."Patricia stifled her coughs and took a few sips of water to soothe her throat before glaring at Ellar. "Let's eat.""Sure," Ellar agreed,

After she had dished those words out to him, Patricia hurried off to her car parked at the lot.Ellar's eyes glinted with pain and anguish at Patricia's response, but he gritted his teeth and followed her anyway. He could feel that Patricia's resistance toward him was not as strong as he had expected, so he would do well not to give up now.Once they were in the car, Patricia, her tone cold and indifferent, said, "Sit tight, I'll take you home first."After that, she floored the gas pedal, bringing the car out of the parking lot in a jiffy. Having anticipated how fast she would be going, Ellar instinctively fastened his seatbelt and grabbed the handle.On the way, Patricia was going at 80 miles an hour, making the atmosphere in the car quiet yet tense, with a nervous Ellar tightening his grip on the handle, his face scrunched up in fear and concern. He knew that Patricia was in a bad mood, and could not help but wonder if it was because of the confession he had made earlier.After

Lulu grinned. "I know. But what if Patricia becomes the female CEO of BayCorp one day?"Nicole shot Lulu a frown and with a sneer, she replied, "Only you would think of that.""Hehe, preparations are still in order, right? We don't want to be caught off guard later on, do we?" Lulu laughed."Well, let's hope so. Alright, back to work," Nicole said, dismissing Lulu."Okay," Lulu turned around and exited the office.Nicole then glanced over at the stack of documents on the table, picked up one, and got busy with it.Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at Ellison Group, Harvey had been sitting at his desk, wide-eyed and motionless after he was done with his work, as if the thoughts darting across his mind had overwhelmed him."Are you okay, Mr. Ellison?" his assistant asked cautiously.He had not barked any orders or given any instructions in over thirty minutes now, so his assistant had been left to wonder what was going on.Today was his first day of recovery, and yet he had been le

If it was not something important, Jared would not have gone out of his way to work overtime."We need to modify a proposal," Jared explained. "Recently, we've been dealing with a project abroad and we've encountered some practical operational issues. That's why we're planning to make some alterations to the proposal.""I can help too." Nicole nodded in understanding, knowing everyone in Johnston Group was working overtime because they did not wish to put their progress on hold.Jared then glanced over at Nicole and passed her a tub of creamed spinach. "Just wait for me."Nicole had been working the entire day, so he did not want her taking on more than she needed to do for the day."You don't have to worry about me. Perhaps we can get it over with sooner than later with my help." Nicole smiled.Nodding, Jared brushed the stray strands of Nicole's hair aside. "Let's have dinner first."While having dinner, Nicole could not help but think about the project Jared was working to fi

Noticing that Jared had also gotten up, she asked, "Are you going out?""No, I'm not," he replied.Max should have left the country by now, with the people in San Joto and abroad believing that Jared was no longer in the country. Thus, he could not make an appearance in public for the time being."Why aren't you sleeping then?" Nicole asked, thinking he should get more sleep."It's okay now. There are a few things I need to take care of for now," he replied.Jared then made a beeline for the bathroom but was stopped midway by Nicole, who hugged him around the waist.Nicole smiled as she looked up at him. "I'm going to work. You will eat well and rest well, okay? I'll be back early after work."After giving her a tender smile, he lowered his head to kiss Nicole on the lips."Sure." Jared nodded following the lingering morning kiss.Nicole then rolled her eyes and walked out of the house, her cheeks as red as roses. As for Jared, his eyes were brimming with tenderness as he watc
