Patricia, her cheeks slightly red, didn't say more but changed the subject." Ms. Riddle, that's all I know for now. I saw Doretta yesterday, and everything seemed normal, but I'll watch her more closely." "Okay, I believe you," Nicole smiled, not asking more about Doretta or bringing up Patricia and Ellar again.
"I'll go to BayCorp now," Patricia nodded and left.
After Patricia left, Lulu also said, "I'll get back to work."
Watching Lulu leave, Nicole bit her lip, looking thoughtful. 'Patricia's investigation into Doretta is going well, but how about Zane's progress?'
As Nicole thought, her phone rang. Seeing Zane's call, she frowned slightly before answering, "Zane."
"Nicole, we've found something," Zane said quickly.
"Tell me," Nicole's tone became serious.
"It looks like Everett is planning to destroy BayCorp,' Zane explained.
Nicole's expression hardened. Her voice was cold as she asked, "What have you found?"
"He's set a trap with the project he offered Ellar. It seems perfect on the surface, but once Ell ar falls for it, he'll be powerless to recover. He'll either be manipulated by Everett or forced to watch BayCorp crumble," Zane's tone was grave.
Fortunately, they had discovered this early, otherwise, once everything was set in motion, it would have been difficult to reverse.
"Alright, I understand," Nicole responded solemnly.
Nicole felt that Everett had likely contacted Doretta through someone, aiming to exploit her relationship with Emma's family. He probably wanted to create an opportunity for El la r to sign the contract, achieving his goal.
"But don't worry too much. I've already arranged for someone to intervene. Everett won't succeed," Zane added.
"Alright." Nicole didn't dwell on it, discussing a few countermeasures with Zane before ending the call.
Nicole was in deep in thought, her expression darkening further. Maybe Everett, worried about Ellar's uncertain position affecting his plans, sent someone to approach Doretta.
'And if Doretta agrees to help Everett, what's in it for her? Has she ever considered that if Eliar gets into trouble, she might not be safe in San Joto anymore?
'Or maybe Doretta has other intentions regarding Ellar and decides to side with Everett when she realizes her hopes won't materialize?'
The more Nicole thought, the more she realized she couldn't quite understand Doretta. 'Maybe we'll have to wait for Patricia's investigation to reveal the real Doretta. 'But that's okay. We still have everything under control.
'I won't let anything happen to Ell ar, and I won't let anything harm Dexter's family either.'

Meanwhile, Everett lounged in his office chair, his gaze dark and brooding.
"She actually agreed?" his voice was deep.
"Yes, she's agreed to cooperate with US, but she has one condition," Jerry replied, his tone slightly disdainful.
Everett raised an eyebrow. "A condition?"
"Yes, she wants to manage BayCorp herself once everything is settled," Jerry shared with a hint of scorn.
"Heh," Everett chuckled. "She is quite ambitious."
