"Alright, get to work," Nicole gently patted Lulu's shoulder.

"Okay." Nodding, Lulu headed to her own office.

After returning to her office, Nicole sat down at her desk. She flipped through the documents on her desk, her brow slightly furrowing.

Concerned about Ellar's situation, she felt somewhat relieved that Patricia had arranged for someone to follow Ellar, ensuring his personal safety. Meanwhile, Ellar was making his way toward BayCorp.

He had deliberately chosen the lunch hour for his visit, hoping to discuss some investigative matters and also hoping to catch a glimpse of Patricia.

Since the last incident with Patricia, when she came for the surveillance footage and encountered Emma and Doretta, he was aware that Patricia might misunderstand the situation. Patricia, being highly intelligent, would easily see through the intentions behind Emma bringing Doretta along.

After all, if he could understand the situation, Patricia surely would too.

But some things, once they had happened, were beyond one's control.

What he could do now was try to prevent the situation from worsening.

Recalling Lulu's words, Ellar frowned as he thought, 'If I were to say I had someone I liked, Mom might respect my wishes.

'However, she would also want to meet the person.

'Whom would I bring home then? Bringing a fake girlfriend could complicate things in the future, yet I don't have a real one either*

"Sigh," Ellar exhaled in resignation.

"Mr. Riddle, are you still worried about the phosphate rock powder incident?

" his assistant asked quietly. Although the incident had passed, the perpetrators had not been found, leaving open the possibility of their return and potential harm to BayCorp.

Ell ar looked up at his assistant and asked, "Do you think if I asked Patricia to come home with me, she would agree?"

"What?" The assistant was momentarily confused, not quite catching the meaning.

"Never mind," Ellar said, seeing the puzzled look on his assistant's face, and then snapped back to reality.

Cautiously, the assistant asked, Mr. Riddle, is something wrong?"

"Just drive," Ellar responded without elaborating further, turning his gaze to the window outside.

Sensing Ellar's mood wasn't the best, the assistant focused on driving.

Ellar watched the streetscape flash by. Patricia's image unwittingly crossed his mind, leaving him feeling somewhat bitter and frustrated.

As dusk approached, Nicole, looking at Lulu and Patricia, asked, "Where are you headed?"

"Spencer is coming to pick me up. He's made dinner reservations," Lulu said with a sweet smile.

"I'm going to Dr. Wyance's place," Patricia replied.

Nicole raised her eyebrows slightly. "Is something the matter?"

"Dr. Wyance called me over, but he didn't specify what for," Patricia said, also clearly puzzled.

"Go ahead," Nicole nodded, signaling her to proceed, then walked toward Jared's car.

Once in the car, Jared softly asked, "What's going on?"

"Martin wants Patricia to see him, not sure why," Nicole expressed her concern, replaceing it odd that Martin would request Patricia's presence. Jared, holding Nicole's hand gently, reassured, "Patricia can handle it."

Mm," Nicole agreed, deciding to ask Patricia about it tomorrow.
