Chapter 3256
Doretta nodded, understanding that Patricia and Charlie had also been through tough times. Fortunately, through their own efforts, they had supported each other and made it to this point.
Emma glanced at the time and suggested, "It's about time; let's talk over dinner." "Sure,” everyone agreed, standing up and heading to the dining room.
After a lively dinner, Patricia and Doretta said their goodbyes and left.
Ellar was a bit sad as he watched Patricia and Doretta walk away together, refusing his offer to escort them. He had been happy when Patricia agreed to come with him, but now he wondered if she only came because of Doretta, which made him feel more alone.
After they left, Patricia and Doretta didn't go their separate ways. They found a quiet spot.
"Is there something else?" Doretta checked their surroundings before she spoke.
"It's about Ms. Riddle..." Patricia then briefly explained the situation that had unfolded earlier in the day and cautioned, "I know you're investigating Lawrence, but please hurry. I have a feeling he might harm Nicole."
Doretta's expression turned grave. "Okay, I understand."
It seemed Lawrence was indeed becoming impatient, and they should indeed be more vigilant.
"The safety of Nicole is in my hands; I will do everything I can. The rest is up to you and Charlie," Patricia said with a serious tone.
Doretta nodded. "Don't worry, we will do our best too."
