"Got it." After agreeing, Nicole and Jared, with Nolan and Lana, left the Riddle residence. After dropping off Nolan and Lana at kindergarten, they headed to the hospital.

Patricia was somewhat excited to see them. Nicole gave a slight smile." You heard about Charlie." "Yes," Patricia nodded, having heard rumors but now confirmed by Nicole. "Max took him to a nearby hospital, so he's not here," Nicole explained." His wounds are treated, and he's stable." "Thank you, Ms. Riddle," Patricia said, feeling relieved. "Nicole, did they catch Everett?" Ellar was now more concerned about Everett's capture.

Nicole shook her head. "Not yet." She felt puzzled. 'A whole night has passed, so why is there still no news?' "He didn't escape again, did he?" Eliar's face went pale at the thought.

Nicole frowned but didn't voice her uncertainties.

With no updates, she too was unsure if Everett had been caught or not.

As they talked, Nicole's phone rang. Seeing Zane's name, she narrowed her eyes slightly.

Answering the call, Nicole spoke softly, "What's the situation?

"Alright, I understand."

After Nicole hung up, her expression turned grim.

"Could Everett have escaped again?" Ellar was surprised, looking at

Nicole's expression. He couldn't think of anything else that would affect her mood this way. What shocked him more was how Everett could have managed it.

"Ms. Riddle?" Patricia called out again when Nicole remained silent.

"Everett hasn't been caught yet. Zane is waiting for more details," Nicole explained.

Patricia looked puzzled. "Waiting for news? Shouldn't he be investigating?" She wondered why they were waiting instead of actively searching.

After glancing at Ellar, Nicole looked back at Patricia and said, "You'll replace out in a few days."

Nicole wanted to keep Doretta's identity as a secret for now, thinking it was best to keep it under wraps for now to avoid endangering her.

"What's with all the secrecy?" Ellar whispered, intrigued. "She won't even tell us."

Patricia simply replied, "Mhm." She figured if Nicole chose not to share, there must be a good reason. They'd just have to wait.

"Forget about it, I'm off to the office now," Nicole said, leaving with Jared.

"Hey, Patricia, what do you think Nicole's keeping from US?" Ellar persisted.

"It's probably something to do with Zane, and we shouldn't pry," Patricia gently scolded. "You should rein in your curiosity. Nicole will tell US when she's ready. If not, it's best not to ask." "Got it," Ellar said, chuckling at the mild scolding.

Patricia shook her head, amused, and opened the thermos Nicole had brought, pouring a bowl of pumpkin cream soup for Ellar. "Have some, Nicole said it's nourishing." "You should have some too," Ellar said noticing Patricia hadn't served herself.

"Alright." Patricia poured herself a bowl as well.
