Chapter 377 No Courage
With Nicole speaking so confidently, Whitney relaxed considerably as she lowered her gaze and nodded.
“Okay. In that case, you can leave first, Miss Nicole.”
Whitney waited until Nicole left before fishing out her phone and staring at it for a long while.
After some time, she shakily tapped out a string of numbers. Even though the number wasn’t saved on her phone,
she had memorized it skilfully.
Whitney stared intently at the string of numbers, lacking the courage to tap on the dial button.
She looked at it for a long while before giving up in the end. Nicole said she had a plan, so she must have meant it.
There was no need for Whitney to be worried.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe woman gripped her phone tightly. She was still cowardly as she retreated, for she couldn’t work up the courage
to talk to that person.
She had betrayed him, so how could she talk to him like nothing had ever happened?
Whitney felt that she was selfish as she stared at the string of numbers. It had been three years. Would he forgive
her?
After thinking for a while, Whitney finally gathered her thoughts. She shook her head and decided not to think about
those things anymore.
She would cross the bridge when she got there. If Nicole couldn’t handle it on her own, Whitney would go to him.
…
When Nicole arrived home, Hayden was still surfing the net. She was on the brink of suspecting that her own son
had gotten addicted to the internet, for she always came home to him at the computer.

Nicole silently walked closer and realized that there was a huge string of code on Hayden’s computer screen, and
she couldn’t understand them at all.
She frowned slightly and asked in a small voice, “Hayden, what are you working on?”
Hayden was so absorbed in his data that he didn’t notice Nicole coming up to him from the back. Startled, he
turned around to see that his mother was home. He quickly tapped twice on his keyboard, switching out the screen.
He switched back to his innocent face as he said to Nicole, “It’s nothing. Why are you home so early today, Mom?”
Seeing that Hayden was trying to change the subject, Nicole couldn’t help but smile. She sat on the couch and took
the laptop from his hands, then pulled him into her arms as she said smilingly, “I got fired, so I have all the time in
the world to accompany you at home.”
pursed his lips and asked in a puzzled tone, “Mom, you’re excellent at work. Have they gone blind? Is that why they
fired you?”
Seeing how defensive her child was of her, Nicole couldn’t help but feel happy as she reached out and caressed his
head. “It’s good timing. I’ve been busy ever since I came back, and I don’t even have time for you anymore. I’ll
treat it as a holiday. Are there any places you want to go, Hayden? I’ll take you there.”
When Hayden saw his mother’s smiling face, he stopped complaining as he leaned into Nicole’s embrace. His small
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhands held her waist as he said in an adorable tone, “We don’t have to go anywhere. I’m happy as long as you’re
with me, Mom.”
Nicole felt warmth in her heart upon hearing her son say such considerate words. She reached out and supported
her son’s hips, then she remembered the computer screen she saw when she came in. She couldn’t help but ask
curiously, “What were you doing just now, Hayden?”
Hayden’s body froze in an obvious manner. He thought for a long while before saying, “Miss Whitney taught me
that. I tried it a bit just now, but it’s not much fun.”
Nicole understood now; it turned out that Whitney had taught him that. She was quite skilled at hacking, and when
Nicole wasn’t around, she would let Whitney babysit Hayden.
Perhaps he picked it up after all the time he spent with Whitney.
Nicole didn’t doubt it at all. “Let’s not fiddle with such complex things next time, or you’ll get a headache in addition
to your confusion.”
Hayden didn’t protest, nor did he confess that these things were actually simple for him. He simply leaned quietly in
Nicole’s embrace and nodded.
