My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 3162

Chapter 3162

Nicole thought Benjamin must have known something, which was why he asked Daniel.

"You can trust US to handle it, so you don't need to feel any pressure," Daniel reassured Nicole, indicating that Benjamin was asking out of concern and nothing more.

Nicole nodded. "Well take care of it as quickly as possible."

"Good." Daniel then changed the subject. "Let's have dinner then."

"Okay," everyone agreed, and they all headed toward the dining room.

Seeing Nolan not staying to watch TV but heading upstairs instead, Lana couldn't help asking, "Aren't you watching TV?"

"No, I've got things to do," Nolan said, already stepping up the stairs.

"Oh," Lana didn't think much of it and turned on the TV to watch.

Nicole glanced over upon hearing this, a thoughtful look crossing her eyes.

Meanwhile, Ellar and Patricia had just arrived at Ellar's home. They were late because Patricia had insisted on buying some gifts.

Carrying those gifts, Patricia politely greeted, "Hi, Mr. Riddle, Mrs. Riddle."

"Why bring gifts? We're already happy with your visit. You mustn't buy gifts next time," Emma told Patricia, pulling her aside.

"It's the least I could do, considering the trouble I've caused," Patricia said, a bit embarrassed.

"It's no trouble at all. Besides, we're practically family now, so don't be shy," Emma said, then turned to Ellar with a warning look. "You should bring Patricia here more often, but make sure she doesn't buy anything next time. "Oh," was all Ellar could respond, feeling resigned since that would require Patricia to listen to him.

Ellar watched Patricia head to the restroom, knowing she was likely sending a message. He then started chatting with Emma and Dexter." Mom, what do you know about Doretta?"

"Not much, really. After all, we haven't been in contact for many years." Emma was puzzled. "Why are you suddenly asking about Doretta?"

"Oh, just asking," Ellar replied.

Dexter, however, pressed, "Is she having trouble adapting at the company?" "No, it's really just a casual question. After all, she's my cousin, and I just wanted to know more about her." Ellar scratched his head, smiling goofily.

"Oh, I thought something might have happened to her at BayCorp," Dexter sighed in relief.

In truth, Dexter wasn't entirely supportive of Doretta joining the company. It was just that, since she was Emma's relative, he felt it wasn't his place to say much.

Dexter thought that since Doretta had just graduated without much work or management experience, he wouldn't have minded if she started from the bottom. However, she was placed in some important roles.
