Chapter 3137
"Could it be that he's waiting for the outcome from Doretta’s side?" Lulu speculated.
At this time, Everett causing trouble to distract them might also be creating opportunities for Doretta.
"It's a possibility I won't rule out. I'll remind Patricia of this," Nicole said, then turned to the others. "As for these projects, we still need to maintain the facade."
Lulu nodded in understanding. "Right, making Everett believe he has succeeded might lead him to expose his flaws." "Well do as you suggest," Sean and Steve agreed.
"Good," Nicole replied with a slight smile.
Soon after, Sean and Steve left the office.
"Nicole, even though we need to maintain a facade, our work still needs to continue. About these projects... will those companies be willing to play along with US?” Lulu asked hesitantly.
"Those willing to continue will do so; if not, well terminate the contracts. As for the penalties, let's waive them. They can decide what they want to do." After all, it was because of Riddle Corporation that they were involved, so they shouldn't bear the losses.
Lulu bit her lip slightly and responded, "Okay, I understand."
After watching Lulu leave, Nicole called Patricia. She briefed Patricia on the situation at Riddle Corporation, and cautioned, "Doretta might be making a move soon, be careful." "No wonder, she is starting work at BayCorp tomorrow," Patricia's tone sounded serious.
Knowing Doretta's intentions, Ellar had taken all the necessary precautions at the company, leaving Doretta no chance to act at home.
Over the past few days, Doretta managed to persuade Emma, who then convinced Ellar to let Doretta into the company. Ell ar agreed, seizing the opportunity.
"Heh, you must be realizing how smart I am now," Ellar said with a hint of pride.
Patricia couldn't help but shake her head. "Yes, you're the smartest." Now, the pressure seemed a lot less, since even a loss wouldn't be scary.
"As long as you know," Ellar said with a triumphant smile.
Patricia couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, cautioning, "Be more discreet, and make sure you don't give anything away." "Got it," Ellar said, patting his chest. "I'll be careful." "Alright, go on then," Patricia signaled that Ellar could leave.
Ellar's expression stiffened slightly. "So, about what I just asked you, have you decided?"
Patricia hesitated for a moment. "Doretta is coming to the company tomorrow; I think it's better not to."
