Er was momentarily stunned, listening to the dial tone from the phone.


    "What did he say?" everyone asked at once.


    "He wants me to go to BayCorp''s parking basement," Er replied, somewhat hesitantly.


    "Then what are we waiting for? Let''s go," Emery said, already moving to take Er with him. Dexter


    seemed eager to leave the hospital bed to join them.


    "He asked me toe alone," Er said, torn.


    The room fell into a tense silence, the air thick with anxiety.


    "You can''t go alone," Patricia was the first to break the silence.


    Regardless, she decided to follow Er. She felt that him going alone wouldn''t save Emma and could


    even put himself in danger.


    "But if I take someone with me, Everett might not show up, or he might harm Mom," Er said


    anxiously. He was willing to risk his own safety if it could ensure Emma''s.


    "What do we do then? It''s too dangerous for you to go alone," Lulu expressed her concern, highlighting


    the dilemma they faced.


    "Let Er go alone. Give him whatever he wants," Dexter said, his priority clear. Nothing else mattered


    as long as his wife was safe.


    "But what if Everett still refuses to release her or even captures Er after getting what he wants?


    Won''t we be even more at a disadvantage?" the concern was evident, pointing out the potential risk in


    their decision.


    "We..." Dexter’s face paled, his eagerness to save Emma was strong, but he also didn''t want Erto be


    in danger.


    ''Til go with Er," Patricia paused before continuing, "You should stay at the hospital and wait for our


    news."


    After speaking, Patricia looked toward Nicole and said, "Ms. Riddle, Everett must have arranged for


    people to watch US, so we mustn''t make any rash moves."


    She understood that if they arranged for many people to apany Er, there was no telling what


    Everett might do. Moreover, with Emma in Everett''s hands, arranging for arge group would only lead


    to them being threatened by Everett, forcing them to restrain themselves.


    Nicole thought for a moment and then agreed, "Alright, but be careful."


    "Understood." Patricia nodded. "Let Er leave first. I''ll figure out a way to leave through the back door


    and then meet up with him." This way, it wouldn''t be obvious that Er had someone with him.


    Everyone was silent, seemingly caught in hesitation and conflict.


    Patricia had already turned to Er, saying, "Let''s go. Don''t worry, I''ll bring Mrs. Riddle back."


    Er looked at Patricia and nodded. "Okay." He knew there was no other option now, and if Patricia


    could help him, there might indeed be hope to save Emma.


    As the two resolutely departed, Dexter finally snapped out of his daze, muttering, "Could there be


    danger?"


    "Uncle Dexter, let''s leave it to them. We are being watched here, so we can''t make any careless


    moves, or it could put Emma at risk," Nicole consoled.


    This was the best course of action they had, and all they could do was wait and trust Patricia and Er.


    "Dad, you should rest. They can handle this," Emery also urged, understanding that there really was no


    better option.


    Dexter sighed, nodding his head with a worried expression. Despite his concerns, there was nothing he


    could do but wait.


    "Nicole, should we secretly arrange for someone to assist them?" Lulu asked, also feeling somewhat
