My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) -
Chapter 1989
"Yes," Nicole confirmed and took out a silver needle. "First, I'll acupuncture you to detoxify your body. I'll have the prepared medicine sent over. You just need to take it on time."
"How long would it take to recover?" Mr. Riddle Sr. was confident in Nicole, so he asked directly.
Nicole replied with confidence, "One week is sufficient."
After a moment of silence, Mr. Riddle Sr.'s eyes filled with determination. "Alright, one week would do. We'll host your welcoming banquet one week later. I'll show up and announce that you're taking over as the chairman of Riddle Corporation."
Nicole's hand paused for a moment while holding the needle. But she quickly regained her composure and nodded. "Alright."
She understood Mr. Riddle Sr.'s eagerness. It was hard for her to take over the company now, but settling everything as soon as possible might be the best solution. That way, people would stop targeting Mr. Riddle Sr., since everything would be in her hands.
Nicole finished the acupuncture for her grandfather and gave him some instructions before leaving the Riddle family manor.
The car gradually drove away from the manor, and Nicole's expression slowly turned grave. novelebook.comShe had to continue investigating who harmed Mr. Riddle Sr.
She agreed to take over the company, so all she had to do now was face it. Determination gleamed in Nicole's eyes as she looked at Jared. "Send me to Riddle Corporation."
To take over the company, Nicole must first learn about the company's situation. Her time was tight as the banquet was one week away. She could not waste time now.
Understanding her intentions, Jared sent her to the headquarters of Riddle Corporation.
Getting out of the car, Nicole told Jared, "I'll just go up myself."
Jared frowned, seemingly concerned.
Nicole stated frankly, "I'd have to face this alone eventually. Plus, my dad and brothers are there too."
Nicole knew Riddle Corporation had been divided, with only her father and brothers remaining. There should not be any issues for her.
Upon hearing her words, Jared hesitantly agreed. "Alright. I'll pick you up after work."
"It's alright. I'll go back with Dad," Nicole added, not wanting to burden Jared. She genuinely thought it was more convenient to leave work with her father.
Jared did not insist further and nodded. "I'll be waiting at home." Jared was comfortable with the idea of Nicole going back with Daniel.
"Okay," Nicole replied. She felt a weird sensation and even a hint of happiness upon hearing Jared said he would wait for her at home. Noticing her unusual thoughts, Nicole turned around and briskly headed into the building.
As Nicole's figure disappeared through the entrance, Jared withdrew his gaze. "Let's go."
The car left Riddle Corporation and went in the direction of Johnston Group.
Only the Riddle family members knew about Nicole's return, so the employees were all shocked to see her in the company. They even forgot to react, standing frozen as if they were immobilized. Nicole smoothly went to Daniel's office, where Sean was also present.
Daniel was surprised at Nicole's appearance. "Nicole, why are you here?"
After briefly explaining Mr. Riddle Sr.'s situation, Nicole continued to say, "I want to take over the affairs of the company as soon as possible. So I thought I'd check in first."
"I've got the documents prepared and was planning to give them to you after work at home. Since you're here, you should take a look at it first. I'll have someone send it to your office later," Sean said. His expression was gloomy as he was stunned about his grandfather's matter.
"Alright, thank you." Nicole nodded. Seeing that her brother had prepared an office, Nicole figured it was good to have her own office as she needed space.
"You haven't regained your memories yet. Take it slow. If you have any questions, you can always ask Sean and Steve," Daniel admonished Nicole with affection.
