"No, Patricia knows her boundaries," Nicole affirmed, her trust evident in her eyes. After all, Patricia was professionally trained and knew how to remain rational when needed.

"That's reassuring," Lulu relaxed a bit, understanding that Patricia was indeed the most suitable person for the job at the moment.

"And you?" Nicole looked up at Lulu. "How are things on your end? Going smoothly?"

Lulu nodded. "Everything's fine, don't worry."

"Good," Nicole nodded in satisfaction, confident that leaving company matters in Lulu's hands was the right choice.

"Nicole, I know you've been busy, and more challenges may arise. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on the company. If there's anything I can't handle, I'll consult with your brothers. Just focus on what you need to do," Lulu said seriously, her eyes earnest.

Nicole felt warmth in her heart and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll manage."

"I believe you can handle anything. Even if Everett is cunning, you'll replace a way to deal with him," Lulu said as she nodded vigorously.

Nicole smiled. "I'll do my best."

Patricia arrived at BayCorp.

Ellar, upon seeing Patricia, was overjoyed. "You're here!"

Patricia glanced at Ellar coolly and said seriously, "I'll be working here for a while."

"Really?!" Ellar blinked in disbelief, thrilled by the news to the point of doubting its reality.

Patricia rolled her eyes at Ellar and placed a document down. "This is about Everett's project. Arrange for someone to handle the negotiations, but remember to delay any agreements. Don't sign anything." "Got it," Ellar said quickly.

Patricia looked at Ellar and then started to leave.

"Wait." Ellar took a moment to respond, calling out to her just as she was about to leave the office.

Patricia stopped and turned back, looking slightly confused. "Is there something else?"

"Uh, I..." Ellar stammered but couldn't replace the words.

Seeing Ellar's struggle, Patricia rolled her eyes and said, "Let me know when you've figured it out."

Then, Patricia turned and walked out of the room.

"Patricia!" Ellar watched her leave, feeling resigned, and finally let out a sigh.

He was annoyed with himself for suddenly becoming tongue-tied. It felt very foolish.

The stress from home was increasing, and if he didn't replace a solution soon, he felt like he might not be able to handle it much longer.

Ellar sighed and shook his head sadly, silently deciding to invite Patricia to lunch to ask for her help.

In the office, Patricia sat at her desk, her gaze dark and thoughtful.

'We're still in the dark about Everett's plan, but we're sure it's going to hurt Ellar and, indirectly, Nicole. We can't afford to relax for even a moment.

'Then there's Doretta. She might've come to San Joto looking for work and to move up in her career.

But if she's been in contact with those people from the Eastern Falcon-or, worse, if they've bought her off-it could spell trouble for the Riddle family.' With her mind spinning with thoughts, Patricia's expression darkened.
