Lulu glanced at Nicole and lowered her voice, saying, "You look a bit off.

Are you worried about Everett?" "No." Nicole slightly curled her lips, choosing not to share the situation with Lawrence with Lulu, not wanting her to worry as well.

"Then, has there been any news from Everett?" Lulu frowned, noting how well Everett had hidden himself.

Nicole sighed. "Still no news. I wonder how Patricia is doing?"

"Yeah, it's really frustrating not knowing what Everett is up to," Lulu complained.

Nicole reassured her with a glance. "Patricia will inform US if there's any news."

"I'm just worried about Patricia and Ellar," Lulu sighed, knowing that only by resolving the Everett issue would things settle down.

"Let's wait a bit longer," Nicole said, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"That's all we can do," Lulu sighed. With Everett remaining hidden, they were indeed powerless.

At BayCorp, Patricia placed a document on Ellar's desk.

"Thank you." After expressing her gratitude, Ellar looked up at Patricia and commented, "Everett has been quiet until now. He really can keep his calm. N

"The quieter he is, the more dangerous it gets," Patricia warned Ellar.

Ellar nodded. "I understand, but I still hope he shows up soon."

Despite the danger, it was still preferable to the current situation of being on tenterhooks.

What they needed most now was to catch Everett, rather than letting him continue to hide endlessly.

"It's indeed strange when you think about it. This isn't like Everett's usual style. Could he be planning to sneak away again?" Patricia mused,

frowning. 'But according to Nicole, Everett is already cornered and unlikely to leave Hustuaburg again.'

"Anyway, just be cautious," Ellar reminded Patricia. He felt that the quieter Everett was, the more vigilant they needed to be.

"Yes, and with so many people watching, we'll be notified if there's any movement," Patricia whispered.

Ellar and Patricia exchanged a glance and shared a knowing smile. Although they needed to be on high alert, they understood there was no need to be overly anxious. Just then, Patricia's phone rang. She frowned slightly as she recognized the number.

After a brief hesitation, Patricia answered the call, "Hello?

"What? Really?

"Okay, I got it."

Patricia hung up the phone with a frosty expression.

"What's up?" Ellar immediately became alert, wondering if there was news about Everett.

After glancing at Ell ar, Patricia clenched her teeth, trying to calm herself." It's nothing, just some issues at headquarters. I need to go there."

"Is it about Charlie?" Ellar frowned. "Even so, hasn't Jared already approved your leave from the squad?"

He didn't see the need for Patricia to go there. He understood her concern for her brother Charlie, but now that she was off the squad, it didn't seem appropriate for her to just go there.

"It's fine, I'm just going to check," Patricia said, replaceing an excuse without giving further explanations to Ellar, then quickly left.

"Hey..." Unable to stop Patricia, Ellar could only watch as she departed.

Although Ellar was somewhat concerned, he reassured himself that Charlie wouldn't let anything happen to Patricia and let her go.

After leaving BayCorp building, Patricia wasn't actually going to see Charlie. The message she received had nothing to do with Charlie but was related to Doretta. She didn't want Ellar to worry, so she didn't tel him.

Even though Everett hadn't shown up, Doretta had, and she had even contacted Emma. Patricia felt compelled to check on the situation; if Doretta posed any threat to Emma, she would be there to help protec her in time.
