Chapter 2465


    Nicole remembered how things were easier for Stanley when Spencer and Samuel were still single.


    Jared looked at Nicole, his eyes full of questions.


    "You feel a lot more stressed out now, don''t you?" “Shouldn''t I be off the hook now? I have you, Nn,


    and Lana," Nicole replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty.


    Jared smirked in reply.


    ''''Maybe, but it seems like your parents are even more anxious now, don''t you thinke" Nicole shot Jared


    an annoyed nce, unable to deny that he did have a point.


    "Let''s head home." Then, she sighed and thought, ''How did I even end up bing the center of


    discussion?'' With a warm smile, Jared took Nicole''s hand and led her to the car, and after a short drive,


    they pulled up at the Riddle residence.


    Nn and Lana, still awake, were watching TV with Gloria in the living room.


    "Mommy!" The kids eximed and rushed over as soon as they spotted Nicole and Jared.


    Nicole gently tousled their hair.


    "Still up, huh?" “We were waiting for you," Nn said, tilting his head to look up at her.


    There was something I didn''t understand, and I wanted to ask you about it." Nicole''s eyes narrowed as


    she realized Nn was probably referring to a task on The Hunters.


    “Daddy, can you tuck me in?" Lana asked, reaching up for a hug.


    “of course," Jared replied and lifted Lana into his arms.


    “They insisted on waiting up for you guys, so I allowed them to watch a bit more TV before going up,"


    Gloria said with a warm smile.


    "We''ve got it from here, Mom.


    You should head to bed too," Nicole said.


    After sharing nods of understanding, everyone headed upstairs.


    Once Gloria had retired into her bedroom, Nicole entered Nn''s room with him in tow.


    “You want to go check on them, Daddy?" Lana asked Jared, clearly knowing what Nn and Nicole


    were up to.


    "Let''s get you tucked in first," Jared replied, giving Lana''s nose a yful pinch.

    "Okay," Lana replied.


    She was worried for her brother and mother, but she also understood she could not do anything to


    assist them in this matter.


    In Nn''s room, both Nicole and Nn had sat down, looking at hisputer.


    "Mom, I think a hacker''s trying to break in," Nn said ina serious tone of voice.


    "I shut it down right after I caught what they were doing and haven''t turned it on since." “A hacker?"


    Nicole''s face hardened as she powered up the rig.


    "The firewall you installed detected and stopped it," Nn exined.


    "I might''ve been hacked otherwise.


    They seemed skilled.


    Without thatyer of protection, myputer would''ve beenpromised." "Let me see," Nicole said,


    her fingers quickly darting across the keyboard as she traced the hacker by the trail they had left.


    After a moment, she let out a sigh and stopped.
