Chapter 3074
Putting aside the documents, Nicole stood up and left her office.
"Let's hit up that spot across the street," Lulu suggested.
"Sounds good to me," Nicole agreed.
As they waited for Patricia to join them, they all rode the elevator down together.
"Nicole, isn't Everett unusually quiet?" Lulu frowned, noticing his uncharacteristic silence.
"The quieter he is, the more it means he's plotting something," Nicole remarked with a touch of coldness. Her expression turned serious as she silently mused, 'The calm before the storm often hides looming threats.'
"Ms. Riddle, has Preston not received any updates?" Patricia inquired, looking worried.
Nicole sighed and shook her head. "We did follow some leads, but unfortunately, they didn't lead anywhere."
"Did you get caught?" Lulu's face slightly paled.
"No," Nicole clarified. "They successfully infiltrated his assistant's computer without detection. However, Everett suspected his side was being monitored due to past incidents, so he instructed his men to stop using computers."
Everett was sharp enough to detect the problem based on these incidents and adapted accordingly. As a result, Preston and his team couldn't find any useful information.
Patricia looked puzzled. "If they're not using computers, how are they getting things done?" She felt it seemed extreme to completely abandon
computers.
"Now, whatever Preston's team manages to find has nothing to do with our company; anything related to me is untraceable," Nicole stated. It
appeared that Everett's plans involving her were no longer discussed or stored electronically.
