    "No, Patricia knows her boundaries," Nicole affirmed, her trust evident in her eyes. After all, Patricia


    was professionally trained and knew how to remain rational when needed.

    "That''s reassuring," Lulu rxed a bit, understanding that Patricia was indeed the most suitable person


    for the job at the moment.


    "And you?" Nicole looked up at Lulu. "How are things on your end? Going smoothly?"


    Lulu nodded. "Everything''s fine, don''t worry."


    "Good," Nicole nodded in satisfaction, confident that leavingpany matters in Lulu''s hands was the


    right choice.


    "Nicole, I know you''ve been busy, and more challenges may arise. Don''t worry, I''ll keep an eye on the


    to do," Lulu said seriously, her eyes earnest.


    Nicole felt warmth in her heart and smiled. "Don''t worry, I''ll manage."


    "I believe you can handle anything. Even if Everett is cunning, you''ll find a way to deal with him," Lulu


    said as she nodded vigorously.


    Nicole smiled. "I’ll do my best."

    Patricia arrived at BayCorp.


    Er, upon seeing Patricia, was overjoyed. "You''re here!"


    Patricia nced at Er coolly and said seriously, "I''ll be working here for a while."


    "Really?!" Er blinked in disbelief, thrilled by the news to the point of doubting its reality.


    Patricia rolled her eyes at Er and ced a document down. "This is about Everett''s project. Arrange


    for someone to handle the negotiations, but remember to dy any agreements. Don''t sign anything."


    "Got it," Er said quickly.


    Patricia looked at Er and then started to leave.


    "Wait." Er took a moment to respond, calling out to her just as she was about to leave the office.


    Patricia stopped and turned back, looking slightly confused. "Is there something else?"


    "Uh, I..." Er stammered but couldn''t find the words.


    Seeing Er''s struggle, Patricia rolled her eyes and said, "Let me know when you''ve figured it out."


    Then, Patricia turned and walked out of the room.


    "Patricia!" Er watched her leave, feeling resigned, and finally let out a sigh.


    He was annoyed with himself for suddenly bing tongue-tied. It felt very foolish.


    The stress from home was increasing, and if he didn''t find a solution soon, he felt like he might not be


    able to handle it much longer.


    Er sighed and shook his head sadly, silently deciding to invite Patricia to lunch to ask for her help.


    In the office, Patricia sat at her desk, her gaze dark and thoughtful.


    ''We''re still in the dark about Everett''s n, but we''re sure it''s going to hurt Er and, indirectly, Nicole.


    We can''t afford to rx for even a moment.


    ''Then there''s Doretta. She might''vee to San Joto looking for work and to move up in her career.


    But if she''s been in contact with those people from the Eastern Falcon-or, worse, if they''ve bought her


    off—it could spell trouble for the Riddle family.''


    With her mind spinning with thoughts, Patricia''s expression darkened.
