My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 3134



Arriving at her office, Nicole had just started working on a couple of documents when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Nicole called.

The door opened, and seeing Ellar, Nicole was somewhat surprised.

"You got here pretty fast." "T hadn't reached the office when you messaged me, so I came straight here," Ellar explained, taking a seat near the couch.

"You said you needed to see me about something important.

What's up?" Ellar knew that if Nicole asked him to come, it must be something significant.

After sharing the information Preston had uncovered, Nicole cautioned him, "Be extremely careful from now on." "So, Patricia agreed to come home with me just to investigate Doretta," Ellar said, looking hurt. Nicole gave Ellar a disdainful look and asked, "Do you think that is important?"

"It's important," Ellar began to defend himself but then hesitated, finally conceding.

"Not important." It was important to him personally but irrelevant to the bigger picture.

"Be very careful not to let Emma find out.

She would be heartbroken," Nicole reminded him again.

"She'll find out eventually," Ellar said, sounding deflated.

Whether sooner or later, the truth would hurt.

"If we catch Doretta red-handed, we can find a way to make her disappear and simply tell Emma she left San Joto," Nicole suggested.

As long as Emma didn't find out she was deceived by Doretta, everything else should be manageable.

Ellar considered Nicole's suggestion and replied, "Alright, I understand." "Cheer up.

Don't mess up Patricia's plan," Nicole said, noticing Ellar's sad face and feeling resigned. "Nicole, I understand," Ellar responded.

He realized that despite his own feelings, they were not the most important thing right now.

He had always known that Patricia coming home with him was just for appearances, but he hadn't expected her to have her own agenda as well, not just the willingness to help him he had assumed. Leaving Riddle Corporation with mixed feelings, Ellar got into his car, looking completely dejected.

"Mr.

Riddle, are you okay?" his assistant asked with concern.

"Let's go, back to the office." Ellar didn't want to talk; he just leaned back in his seat, lost in thought.

When Ellar returned to BayCorp, his attention involuntarily drifted toward Patricia's office before he entered his own.

Unexpectedly, Patricia came out just then.

Ellar quickly averted his eyes and hurried into his office.

Patricia, noticing Ellar's strange behavior, frowned slightly but didn't dwell on it, following him into his office.

"You said Nicole wanted to see you.

What was it about?" Patricia inquired, suspecting it had something to do with BayCorp or Doretta.

Taking a deep breath, Ellar attempted to regain his composure.

"Nicole warned me that Doretta's task might involve obtaining BayCorp's official seal." Patricia paused.

Upon realizing what he was implying, she responded, "So, you know everything now." "Yes, Nicole told me everything.

Doretta might have been bought by Everett's people, so you..." Ellar trailed off, suddenly unsure how to continue, perhaps fearing Patricia's response.

Understanding Ellar's unspoken words, Patricia furrowed her brows slightly.

But in the end, she offered no explanation.

"As long as you're aware, just be careful," Patricia said before turning to leave.

She understood Ellar's concerns; now that he was informed, he would also understand that her visit to his home was solely to investigate Doretta.
