My Wife is a Hacker novel (Nicole)

Chapter 1855

Ryder thought that Gary was talking about him, and so, he mustered an affectionate smile. "You jerk. You've finally come to your senses. Don't you worry, I'll do my best to bring you guys to the next round."

Gary was stunned as he realized that Ryder had misunderstood what he just said.

He was about to explain himself, but Ryder had already put on his pair of earphones, prompting Gary to shake his head and give up on the idea.

'I guess it's good for him to regain some of his confidence first,' he thought to himself.

Gary looked at Nicole awkwardly. 'It's sad that Ryder still doesn't know what's going on.'

However, he figured that it was not his place to tell Ryder about Nicole's real identity, and thus, he said, "Okay."
