Chapter 2853
"Yeah. I got it." Lulu nodded, understanding June's implication.
Initially, she was just making a joke, but upon seeing Patricia's reaction to the innocent little remark she had made, she came to realize that the latter had taken it seriously.
Curious, Lulu furrowed her brows and whispered to Nicole," Is Patricia worried about something she can't divulge to us?"
She always felt that while Patricia did care about Eliar, she had never reciprocated Ellar's feelings for her, and there must be a solid reason for that.
After glancing over at Patricia and back to Lulu, Nicole simply responded, "Maybe."
Since it was a personal matter which Patricia did not seem too keen to talk about, Nicole did not want to probe too deeply. She believed in giving Patricia her personal space to figure things out on her own.
"Okay then," Lulu responded, sighing as she looked at Patricia and Ellar.
She thought it would be a pity if the two missed the chance to get together, but ultimately, the final decision was for the duo of Patricia and Ellar to make.
After dinner, the group of five walked out of the restaurant.
"I'll take you home," Ellar said to Patricia.
Raising her eyebrows in annoyance, Patricia coldly replied," You must understand that I need to drive Ms. Riddle home."
"Well, my brother-in-law is coming to pick her up. You shouldn't deprive him of what he is already planning on doing," Ellar insisted, holding onto Patricia.
As soon as he had spoken, Jared's car rounded the corner and pulled up before them.
"Hey, Jared!" Ellar waved at Jared happily.
Patricia narrowed her eyes as she scrutinized Ellar, suspecting that he had intentionally called Jared over.
Feeling a little guilty, Ellar avoided Patricia's gaze and turned to Nicole instead. "Nicole, your hubby is here to pick you up. You can go home first."
"Okay," Nicole agreed and made a beeline for Jared's car.
Nicole knew what Ellar was up to, but since Jared was already there, she got into the car anyway, not wanting to make a big deal out of it.
After Nicole and Jared had disappeared into the distance, June and Lulu announced, “We're leaving too."
