My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 3167

Chapter 3167

"Mr. Royce, as expected, Nicole has leveraged the power of the Crests, enlisting the aid of several families to navigate through this crisis," Ian said softly.

"Mm," Lawrence responded nonchalantly, seemingly unsurprised.

"Everett has been very quiet. I wonder what he's planning. Should we make our move?" Ian inquired.

Leaning against the couch, Lawrence replied calmly, "No rush, the real show hasn't started yet."

"What do you mean, sir?" Ian was somewhat puzzled.

"Do you really think Nicole would ignore the matter with Ellar?" Lawrence countered.

Ian furrowed his brows. "Patricia has been at BayCorp, and if she hasn't found anything, it must be because Doretta has hidden it too well."

He felt that Nicole wasn't ignoring the issue; it was just that Doretta had hidden it too deeply.

"No, Patricia's capabilities aren't that weak. More importantly, they should know that the seal is missing, yet they've kept it quiet. That indicates there's a problem."

"Should we warn Everett?" Ian was somewhat concerned.

Lawrence waved his hand dismissively. "No need." He was merely speculating and couldn't be sure of anything. So, he just wanted to see what Nicole was really up to.

"But what if..." Ian was genuinely worried. If this was truly Nicole's maneuver, then Everett might be in for a disastrous defeat. If they didn’t warn Everett now and Everett ended up failing, they would be exposed.

"As long as Everett isn't beyond redemption, we shouldn't intervene." Lawrence had already helped Everett in the shadows last time, and Nicole must have noticed. He couldn't act rashly again.

Lawrence thought to himself, Everett still seemed capable, so he decided to let him face his challenges alone. If Everett truly started to fail, Lawrence might step in to help. As long as Everett was safe, that was sufficient.

For Lawrence, preserving Everett was crucial to continuing his schemes in the shadows without attracting attention.
