My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 3207

Chapter 3207

Ellar felt that if Everett was going to arrest someone, it couldn't possibly be that many people, right?

"There's no one." Nicole shook her head, finding the situation truly bizarre.

"Could it be that Emery is right?" Ellar felt there was still hope. In truth, he also didn't want anything bad to happen to Charlie; after all, Patricia would be devastated. So, he preferred to think positively, not daring to contemplate the worst.

Nicole frowned slightly. Emery's speculation made some sense, but since it couldn't be confirmed, they remained somewhat anxious.

"Should we wait a bit longer?" Ellar suggested tentatively.

Nicole glanced at Ellar and instructed, "You should rest well; we'll handle the rest." "Okay." Ell ar nodded, understanding he couldn't be of much help now, his priority was to recover as soon as possible.

"Mr. Johnston, Ms. Riddle, my brother..." Patricia looked at Nicole and Jared, her words trailing off with hesitation.

Nicole patted Patricia's shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, it'll be alright.”

She believed that everyone's analysis was somewhat valid, and Jared had also mentioned that no news might indeed be good news. Moreover, it wasn't just Charlie who was missing, but his team members and even Everett, so perhaps there was a chance for a turnaround.

While they were discussing, Nicole's phone rang. She answered, spoke a few words, and then hung up.

"I need to go to the office; there might be some news." Nicole said, then, taking Jared with her, added, "It's Zane; let's check it out."

With the situation here stable, she felt relieved, just waiting for Ellar and Patricia to recover fully so they could be discharged.

But they had more pressing matters to attend to, namely the situation with

Charlie and Everett.

"After she's gone, I'll take care of him; you should head back too," Patricia said to Emery after Nicole left.

Instinctively, she withdrew her hand, murmuring softly, "I'm fine, you should rest."

The moment her hand slipped away, Ell ar looked momentarily startled, a sense of emptiness crossing his heart.

"I'm sorry, I was just concerned about you," he said, his voice tinged with a trace of melancholy.

"I didn't mean..." Patricia started to clarify, noticing the misunderstanding, but stopped midway, finding it awkward to explain.

Feeling unsettled, she quickly excused herself, "I'm going to check on your test results."

She then quickly left the room, leaving Ellar with a complex look in his eyes. He pondered her evident concern for him the night before and her protective instincts, yet he was confused about her sudden withdrawal.

Once outside the room, Patricia leaned against the corridor wall, trying to calm her racing heart, her mind drifting into a whirl of thoughts.
