Chapter 3100


    Biting her lip, Patricia left with a slightly awkward demeanor, muttering, ''■ I’m off to work."


    Watching Patricia’s hurried departure, Lulu couldn''t help butugh. She could see that Patricia clearly


    cared a lot, yet Patricia pretended to be indifferent.


    Back in her office, Patricia leaned against the door, biting her lip in embarrassment. It seemed her


    feelings had been inadvertently revealed; she did care about Er and wanted to know about him,


    concerned for his well-being.

    Meanwhile, at BayCorp, "Achoo!" Er sneezed loudly and rubbed his nose. "Did I catch a cold?"


    He nced at the air conditioning; the temperature was fine.


    Knock, knock, knock.


    Someone knocked on the door, and Er responded, "Come in."


    His assistant entered with a serious expression. "Mr. Riddle, that car is back at the front of our office


    building again."


    "Again?!" Er clenched his teeth, his expression darkening.


    The car had been showing up for three days straight now. There was always someone inside, but they


    just parked there without doing anything specific.


    At first, Er thought it might be surveince, but the more he watched, the less it made sense. He


    wondered if someone was waiting for an opportunity to strike at BayCorp again.


    "Mr. Riddle, what should we do? Should we ask Ms. Riddle for help?" the assistant inquired.


    Er shook his head. "Not yet. We can''t bother Nicole with every little thing. " Especially since the


    situation was still unclear, and everything was based on his spection. Plus, he should try to handle it


    himself before relying on others, if possible.


    "What should we do, then?" the assistant asked again.


    After a moment''s thought, Er decided, "Have someone watch them discreetly. Let''s give them a


    chance and see what they''re really up to."


    "Understood," the assistant agreed before leaving the room.


    Leaning back in his chair, Er clenched his teeth, his eyes filled with determination. He was resolved


    to find out who was behind this and what their intentions were.


    After a busy day, Er left BayCorp.


    The car that had been parked in front of thepany remained unmoved. Er''s assistant whispered,


    "Don''t worry, everything''s arranged."


    "Let''s go home," Er said, choosing not to dwell on it any further as he departed.


    Upon arriving home, Er called out, "Mom, Dad, I''m back," as he entered.


    He noticed a girl he hadn''t seen before in the living room, alongside his parents.

    Smiling awkwardly and lowering his voice, he remarked, "Oh, we have a guest here."


    "Yes,e here," Emma beckoned him over.


    Approaching the couch, Er nced at the girl and said, "You guys


    continue your chat, I''ll head to my room."


    Emma, displeased, grabbed him, insisting, "Sit down."


    "Is there something?" Er asked, puzzled. Even though there was a guest, he didn''t know her, so he


    didn''t see the need to stay.


    With an inward roll of her eyes, Emma forcefully seated Er and said," This is Doretta, your distant


    cousin."


    "My cousin? From your side of the family?" Er looked puzzled. "Why didn''t Grandma ever mention


    her?"


    "Oh, she is indeed from my side of the family, but you two aren''t rted by blood," Emma rified.


    "So, why is she here?" Er asked, despite not wanting to delve too deeply.


    "Doretta will be staying with US for a while until she finds a job and a ce of her own," Emma


    exined.
