My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 218

Zeke looked hesitantly at the expression of Jared, who was leaning against the wine cabinet, looking at him with stern eyes and a smirk, behind Nicole.

After seeing what Jared was playing with in his hands, Zeke immediately said, "No, no. It's okay. I can handle it."

Nicole was stupefied, not knowing what was wrong with Zeke, but she did not insist. "If you have a problem, find me." Before the two worked together, Specter had been mentoring him personally. Fiddling with a computer should not be a problem for him.

Zeke nodded and headed back next door absentmindedly. He shuddered involuntarily when he thought about the look in Jared's eyes. He also thought about the toy-like, sharp dagger that glinted in Jared's hand. The light reflected off the blade was hurting his eyes. He wondered who Nicole was messing with now.

Zeke turned on the JW3000. It was a little larger and thicker than those portable laptops. Probably because of its high-end processor, its chassis looked a little bulky. For some reason, he felt this machine, which was the most powerful computer in the world, looked somewhat familiar. It looked as if his father had shown him the picture before.

Shaking the thought from his mind, he started to run

a series of testing programs on the machine.

A flight attendant looked at Zeke's somewhat baby face with a look of disdain. 'Mr. Johnston is the only person who can handle this machine.

It's remotely connected to a local machine in the headquarters of JJ Johnston Group in Mecrounia. He often handles transactions directly using it.

'Now, this half-grown brat is blatantly fiddling it.

What’s even more ridiculous is that this brat is just an underling of the girl whom Mr. Johnston has brought with him,' the flight attendant thought as she rolled her eyes impatiently. She then went out to rant to her colleagues about Nicole. After all, this was the first time Jared had brought a girl onto his private plane.

Zeke did not know he had been despised, along with Nicole. He was looking at the computer in front of him with his brows gently knitted together. He was not sure if it was his delusion; it seemed that this computer was slower than he thought.

Zeke had complained about how slow his computer was, and it could not keep with the movements of his fingers. So Nicole had asked for his address and sent him a new one a year ago. And that was the only time they had a bit of interaction other than this time. The address he gave was the convenience store at the entrance of the Northon Institute.

When the parcel from Nicole arrived that day, it was a black bag with his address and code name hanging on it without the sender's name and address. Zeke complained of it upon receiving the parcel. But after taking the packaging apart, he was speechless. The computer's beautiful silver streamline chassis had conquered his heart, and its speed was so fast that his fingers could barely keep up. That made him fall in love with the machine. But that computer that Nicole gave him a year ago was obviously still much faster than the JW3000, which claimed to be the fastest in the world.

Zeke looked thoughtfully at the running scores shown on the screen.

Nicole looked on as Zeke went. She looked back at Jared helplessly. Jared was looking at her with a straight face. As Nicole came over, he let out a gentle, charming smile with two shallow dimples on his cheeks.

If Browning and Dino were here, their eyes would have widened in shock. Never Jared had ever smiled at anyone like that.
