My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 1832

Alfred then led Jared and Mr. Johnston Sr. into the manor.

The moment he stepped through the door, Mr. Johnston Sr. exclaimed, "Mr. Riddle Sr., the day has finally come!"

Mr. Riddle Sr. quickly got up. "Indeed. The feeling is mutual!"

Mr. Johnston Sr. looked at Mr. Riddle Sr. and smiled happily. "We didn't arrange this marriage for nothing, so I came here bearing a grand gift."

Mr. Riddle Sr. did not expect Mr. Johnston Sr. to jump straight to gift giving the moment he stepped into the house. He found himself in an awkward situation. "Oh no, you didn't have to."

"Why not? It's an honor for my grandson to be able to marry a girl like Nicole! So, as his grandfather, I must of course have something to show for!"

As he said that, Mr. Johnston Sr. motioned to a follower behind him to bring something forward.

When the big object covered in red cloth was brought over, everyone could not help but turn to look at it.

Mr. Johnston Sr. smiled happily as he pulled the red cloth away.

A brilliant emerald stone soon appeared before everyone.

Nicole's gaze suddenly deepened.

She was a gemologist, and could tell the authenticity of such a brilliant emerald at a glance.

She did not expect that Mr. Johnston Sr. would have such a large emerald with him. Although the carving was simple, it was very lifelike which showed that it was the work of a grandmaster!

"The Verdant Brilliance by Graf Wittgenstein." There was no trace of doubt in Nicole's voice, only confidence.

Mr. Johnston Sr. did not expect that the person who would be able to tell the name of the piece would be Nicole!

"You could tell whose work this is with just a glance, lass?" Mr. Johnston Sr.'s gaze toward Nicole filled with even more admiration.

It was very rare for someone to have such keen eyes and knowledge at such a young age.

Everyone looked at Nicole one after another.

Nicole could not help but blush a little... but she could only sputter the word out in embarrassment. "Grandpa..."

"Good! Hahaha, this is so worth it. Mr. Riddle Sr. Please accept the gift!"

"Alright, alright!" Mr. Riddle Sr. did not dare refuse the gift and quickly asked the servant to receive the gift.

At this moment, Mr. Johnston Sr. went to Nicole. "You have a keen eye, lass. If you have time in the next two days, come to my place and help me identify some other precious gems I have."

He was a little frustrated that he could not find someone reliable to inspect his gems. He did not expect Nicole to be a gemologist and that was an unexpected pleasant surprise.

Nicole did not refuse. "Alright."

Seeing this, Jared could not help but raise his eyebrows.

'How many more things does this girl know?' 'I've really got myself a gem.'
