Chapter 3147
Watching Doretta's departing figure, the man's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was pondering something. It wasn't until Doretta had walked away that he started the car and drove off.
At Riddle Corporation, Nicole and Lulu, having just finished their lunch and taking a break, were surprised to see Patricia walk in. "Patricia, what brings you here?" "Ms. Riddle..." Patricia approached the couch, her tone slightly grave as she said, "Today, Ellar and I deliberately gave Doretta an opportunity, but her reaction was quite abnormal."
After explaining the events of the lunch to Nicole, Patricia frowned. "Did she sense something, or is she trying to deceive US?" "It's unlikely she's noticed anything," Nicole pondered for a moment before responding.
"Then what's going on?" Lulu asked, puzzled about how such a perfect opportunity could be missed.
Patricia hesitated before adding, "After Ellar and I left, Doretta met with that man again."
She had arranged for someone to keep an eye on Doretta, which led to the discovery. She wondered, Meeting with that man at such a time was too risky for Doretta. Was it desperation, or did they have another task?'
Nicole's eyes narrowed in thought. After a moment, she speculated, "Are they still not confident in Doretta?" "I'm not sure, but she seemed quite angry when she left," Patricia reported.
"Could it be that they have some unresolved issues?" Lulu guessed.
"Perhaps," Nicole looked at Patricia, "Doretta might act within the next few days. Be careful." "Yes," Patricia acknowledged respectfully.
"Also, keep a close eye on Doretta. If they haven't come to an agreement, Doretta might continue to deal with that man, giving US another chance to reclaim the seal," Nicole reminded Patricia.
After a slight hesitation, Patricia lowered her voice. "Ms. Riddle, we use a fake seal." "What?!" Lulu exclaimed, somewhat shocked, "You guys..." "It was Ellar's idea. Doretta is no simple character; if we fail and she steals the fake seal, it would be of no use to her," Patricia explained.
Nicole nodded in agreement. "Hmm, it's a good strategy." "Then you don't have to worry so much. If it's lost, it's lost," Lulu laughed.
Patricia shook her head. "The more it seems like that, the more we have to act like it's important. Otherwise, Doretta might become suspicious." "Right, we definitely can't afford to show any weaknesses now," Nicole concurred.
"However..." Nicole looked at Patricia with a meaningful expression. "I think we can use your and Ellar's method to our advantage." "Use it?" Patricia was somewhat puzzled.
Nicole smiled slightly. "Are you planning to wait for Doretta to steal the fake seal and then use that as evidence to expose her?" "Yes," Patricia confirmed.
"Then why not use this opportunity to implicate Everett?" Nicole suggested. After all, Doretta was just a small figure being manipulated; catching her wouldn't mean much. But if they could link it back to Everett, that would be a different story.
"You mean..." Patricia's eyes widened in realization the moment she grasped Nicole's intention.
"Indeed, this strategy is much better," Lulu understood as well, expressing her agreement.
"Tell Ellar to keep a close eye on Doretta in the coming days," Nicole instructed with a serious expression.
Patricia nodded. "Yes, I'll also arrange for someone to watch her." "Good. You can go back now," Nicole concluded.
"Yes," Patricia responded, turning to leave.
