Chapter 3063
The next day, Patricia attended the bidding, and Riddle Corporation emerged as the successful bidder.
Handing over the documents to Nicole, Patricia reported, "Ms. Riddle, everything went smoothly.”
"Good job," Nicole acknowledged, taking the documents.
Lulu couldn't resist asking, "What was Everett's reaction?"
"He seemed shocked at first, then he left with a grim expression," Patricia replied, her voice tinged with coldness. "I'm sure he's figured it out by now."
"Probably," Nicole agreed, her eyes narrowing slightly, knowing Everett wasn't one to be underestimated.
"Dealing with him is only going to get tougher," Lulu murmured.
As they spoke, Patricia's phone rang suddenly.
Frowning, she answered the call, "What's up?"
"I'll be right there." After hanging up, Patricia looked at Nicole anxiously." Ms. Riddle, there's a sudden issue at the port. I need to go check it out."
"Be careful," Nicole advised, sensing the urgency of the situation. She knew it wasn't the time to ask for details; Patricia needed to handle it first.
"Absolutely," Patricia agreed hastily, knowing she could only explain upon her return.
As Lulu watched Patricia leave, her expression grew even more serious. "It wouldn't be Everett messing with our raw materials again, would it?"
Nicole's expression darkened slightly. "Could be," she replied, understanding the seriousness of the situation.
