My Wife is a Hacker by Summer Chapter 1157

“You're right," Nicole said. “Usually, a new project has to be monitored for some time, but you've seen it
yourself yesterday. They're professionals who are good at what they do, so other than a few curveballs
every now and again, they'll be perfectly fine. Besides, I can't do much over here. As long as I can get
updates about the research progress anytime, I can always come back."

“Whoa, where did that humility come from?" Harvey asked as he arched his brow.

“I'm not being humble," she replied. "I'm just stating the facts.

“Okay, let's stop talking about that. Are we going to watch a movie after this?" Nicole looked at Harvey
curiously.

“Sure, we can do it anytime,” Harvey replied, when he suddenly noticed a familiar figure.

“Why is she here?"

"Who?" Nicole tracked his gaze and looked over.

"Chloe?”

Chloe was heading at their direction when her eyes met Harvey's, but she did not notice Nicole, whose
back was facing her.

"Harvey? What a coincidence. You're here too?” Chloe walked over and greeted him.

"What a coincidence, indeed. When did you get here?" Harvey greeted her in return.

"I just came here yesterday. I was just shopping around when I saw this barbeque restaurant, so I
came in to try it out. I didn't expect to see you here. Seems like it is meant to be.” Chloe looked at him



with a smile.

"Is this your friend?” Chloe then turned to look at the person who was sitting across from Harvey.

"Nicole?!" The second Chloe saw Nicole, she froze. The excitement that she had on her face was
immediately wiped off.

"Why are you here too?!" Chloe asked, confused.

"Why can't I be here? Are you the only one allowed to travel abroad?” Nicole took a glance at her and
continued eating.

“Why you...”

Harvey could tell that there was bad blood between Chloe and Nicole, so he quickly relieved the
tension. "Chloe, get a table as soon as you can. This barbeque here is as good as the one back home."

Chloe knew that he was trying to diffuse the tension, but she wanted to get the upper hand in this
confrontation. "Isn't the seat next to you empty, Harvey? Can I sit next to you?"

"Well..." Harvey saw that Nicole was still considering it, but Chloe had already sat down.

Seeing this, Harvey could not do anything, but get the waitress to bring them another set of cutleries.

Nicole and Chloe sat facing each other at the table, but neither of them spoke to one another. However,
everyone around them could feel the tension between the two.

The grill was still piping hot, but no one was eating. Kelly looked at both Nicole and Chloe before
turning her gaze to Harvey. She communicated to him with her eyes in a way that signaled, "What do
we do now?"



Harvey replied with his eyes as well, with its implication being, "I have no idea."

Suddenly, an idea dawned upon Harvey as he poured a glass of water for Chloe. "Have a cup of water,
Chloe."

Chloe could not ignore Harvey's gesture, so she rolled her eyes at Nicole and smiled at him.
"Thankyou, Harvey.”

“Don't worry about it." Harvey seemed to have resolved the tension at the table, giving both Kelly and
Harvey some measure of relief.

“Chloe, are you here for work?" Harvey asked, picking a random topic to prevent Chloe from breaking
out into a fight with Nicole.

“No, I'm here for vacation. What about you, Harvey?" Chloe asked as she looked at him.

"We're here for work.”

"We?" Chice immediately understood Harvey. 'Turns out, they came here together.’

“Yeah, the three of us are here for work," Harvey explained without hesitation.
