Chapter 2766

The living room was now empty, save for Stanley, who appeared to be somewhat depressed and lonely.

Leaning back against the couch, Stanley sat in silence, as if contemplating something. It was only after fifteen

minutes that he stood, as if he had made a decision, and returned to his room.

Meanwhile, Nicole and Jared were watching Nolan, who was playing his game. Jared was also holding Lana, who

was leaning against his shoulder, her eyes heavy with sleep.

"Daddy, I want to go to bed." Lana rested on Jared's shoulder with her eyes closed, unable to stay awake anymore.

After shooting Nicole a glance, Jared said, "I'll take Lana back to sleep."

"Okay." Nicole agreed, her attention returning to the computer screen.

Nolan's gameplay seemed ordinary, much like a typical levelbased game. However, Nicole could tell that something

was off about it.

"Yay!" Nolan cheered loudly, snapping Nicole out of it.

Seeing that Nolan had completed the level, she reminded him, "It's getting late, and your sister has already gone to

sleep. It's time for you to get ready for bed too."

"Okay, Mommy." Nolan obediently shut the computer down, and went off to the bathroom to take a shower.

After Nolan was done washing up, he changed into his pajamas, Nicole, who was sitting on the bedside, then tucked

him under the covers.

"Nolan, where did you find this game?" Nicole asked softly.

"It came up to me as a pop-up window while I was surfing the internet one day. I thought it carried no risks, so I

downloaded it. I found it to be quite fun." Nolan answered with his brows raised.

"Mommy, is there something wrong with the game?" he asked. 'Why is it that Mommy seems really concerned with

the game? Mommy rarely cares about these things.'

Not wanting to tell Nolan anything, Nicole simply smiled and said, "It's nothing. Go to sleep early."

"Oh, okay." Nolan went to sleep, brushing his earlier concerns off as overthinking.

After Nolan had fallen asleep, Nicole got up to leave the room. Just before leaving, her gaze fell on the computer

screen again, and she narrowed her eyes.

Back in her own room, Nicole saw that Jared had already returned. She sat down, unable to help but sigh.

"What are you suspecting?" Jared softly asked upon noticing how serious she looked.

Nicole shook her head. "I can't explain it clearly. I just feel that something is strange."

Seeing that Nicole was rather confused and stressed out, he began to take her concerns seriously as well. "Tell me

specifically. What kind of feeling is it? How strange is it?"

Perhaps Nicole had noticed something that everyone else had not, and sharing it might prove useful; it might

provide new insights into the matter.

Nicole pondered for a moment, after which she replied, "It looks like an ordinary game, and I just asked Nolan

about it. He said he stumbled upon it on the internet and downloaded it because it seemed risk free."

"None at all?" Jared inquired.

"Nolan said he checked it, and there was malware or viruses attached. He only downloaded it because he thought it

was safe to play."

She believed Nolan would not be wrong about such matters. In fact, he was quite capable of steering clear of

viruses on his own.

"If there are no risks and it's just an ordinary game, what makes you feel that something is off?" Jared asked Nicole

again.

Nicole frowned, and murmured as she contemplated it. "The game seems ordinary, with no special gameplay, but I

just feel like there's something..."

After a sudden pause, Nicole looked at Jared and said, "I know now."

And just like that, she had figured out what the reason was. She had thought about it and finally realized that this

game, while appearing ordinary and unsuspecting, actually concealed something within.

She remembered that Nolan would use a decryption code whenever he cleared a level. 'How could such a game be

ordinary?'
