Chapter 3046


    Everett looked really frustrated, his eyes showing he didn''t like what was happening.


    Staring meanly at his assistant, Everett said in a cold, loud voice, "Stop all of Nicole''s supply lines." He

    thought if they couldn''t stop her from getting her stuff, at least they could stop her from getting more.


    "But, urn, it might be toote," the assistant said hesitantly. They didn''t expect Nicole''s moves, and now


    it seemed toote to do anything.


    "Try anyway," Everett''s face got darker as he looked at the assistant.


    To him, things weren''t decided yet; there was still a chance. He really couldn''t let Nicole get ahead.


    "Okay," the assistant didn''t say more and left quickly.


    Everett got up and walked slowly to the window, staring at the horizon.'' Nicole Riddle, what I lost, I''ll get


    back step by step. Let''s see.''


    Nicole and Patricia returned to the office.


    While Patricia took care of her wounds, Lulu stayed close to Nicole, asking with concern, "What


    happened? How did she get hurt?" "There was a problem with the cargo ship; Patricia took care of it,"


    Nicole exined shortly.


    Lulu sighed, feeling sorry.


    After a bit, Patricia came back with her wounds fixed, only to see Er had arrived.


    "What happened to your arm?" he asked, quickly taking hold of Patricia''s arm when he saw her injury.


    Patricia calmly pulled her arm away, saying, "It''s nothing." "Ms. Riddle, if there''s nothing else, I''ll get


    back to work,” Patricia said and walked away.


    "Hey," Er tried to follow Patricia but was halted by Nicole.


    "Er, what brings you here?" Nicole could tell that Patricia was deliberately avoiding him.


    Stopped by Nicole, Er gritted his teeth,posed himself, and turned to her, saying, "Nicole, it''s


    about some work stuff." "Let''s talk inside," Nicole said, heading into her office.


    Er followed her in, and Lulu, not wanting to miss anything, entered too.


    "What''s the matter?" Nicole asked after sitting down.


    "I got a project proposal, but something seems off. I thought you could check it out," Er handed a


    document to Nicole.


    He really came for work and didn''t expect to find Patricia hurt.


    "Sure, I''ll check it out. I''ll let you know if there''s anything,” Nicole said, signaling for Er to go.


    Lulu rolled her eyes, saying, "Did he actuallye just for work?" "At first, yes. But things changed,"


    Nicole replied, finding it somewhat amusing.


    Lulu nced at the document Nicole was holding, asking, "So, what did Er mean exactly?" "Let me


    check first," Nicole said, opening the document.


    After looking through it, she handed the document to Lulu, saying, "There''s something strange here.


    Get someone to quietly investigate this." "Okay," Lulu said, her expression turning more serious as she


    took the document.


    "Don''t make it a big deal until we have more information," Nicole advised Lulu.


    "I won''t," Lulu assured, holding the document as she left.


    Nicole''s expression darkened a bit, thinking about how much Er had grown through everything he''d


    been through.
