My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 3048

Chapter 3048

Ellar thought to himself, 'Patricia doesn't like it when I show too much concern, Maintaining some distance is wiser.'

He cast a final glance back, carrying the weight of his concern for Patricia. Despite his worries, Ellar recognized the importance of not overstaying his presence. He resolved to find excuses to visit her more frequently in the days ahead.

Later that day, following lunch, Nicole, Lulu, and Patricia had just made their way back to the office.

The sudden ring of Lulu's phone broke the silence. She recognized the caller ID immediately and picked up, asking, "What's the status?

"Really? Okay, got it."

After ending the call, Lulu turned to Nicole with a grave expression and confirmed, "Just as you suspected."

Nicole, with a somber look, suggested, "Let's discuss this in my office," and led the way.

Lulu and Patricia followed her in. Lulu reported immediately, "There's indeed something fishy about that project. The person behind it is Everett." "Everett again?" Patricia's face turned pale as she wondered, 'Why is he targeting Ellar again?' "What's he trying to do?" Nicole pressed Lulu for answers.

Lulu, visibly frustrated, revealed, "Our investigation shows that the company behind the proposal is just a shell company, with Everett orchestrating the whole scheme. He's likely aiming to take down BayCorp." "But what does he gain from BayCorp's downfall?" Patricia was confused.' Could Everett be planning to take over BayCorp himself? That seems farfetched.'

Nicole, with a hint of disdain, speculated, ’He's probably targeting the Riddle Corporation. BayCorp is just the first step."

She knew Everett had been out of the loop in San Joto for too long, underestimating Ellar's progress. 'Had it been Ellarfrom before, Everett might have stood a chance. Unfortunately for him, times have changed.' "So, you're suggesting that if Everett manages to succeed now, he might go after DillCorp, NandoCorp, and eventually target US?" Patricia's concern deepened.
