Chapter 3042
In Nicole's quiet office, she was sorting through many papers during a busy time.
Over at SeaQuartet Holdings, an assistant rushed into Mr. Wright's office, blurting, "Mr. Wright, about
the port..." "Calm down. Just tell me clearly," Everett said, a bit annoyed.
After a moment to collect himself, the assistant shared, looking serious," We just found out Riddle
Corporation's materials from abroad are stored in Johnston Group's special warehouse."
Everett went pale.
Before this, he was struggling to understand why he couldn't get updates on the material stuff. He
thought Jared was helping Nicole, and he was sure she was depending on Jared for more help. So,
Everett had a plan to mess up Jared's support later.
But, surprise! Nicole had it covered. She and Jared were working together smoothly.
"Mr. Wright, what should we do next?" the assistant asked seriously.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Check all the port records. Figure out when Nicole's other shipments are coming," Everett said. He
was sure moving such a big load couldn't happen all at once.
"Got it," the assistant agreed.
Everett looked kinda mean when he asked in a deep voice, "Have our people shown up?" "They're
here and sorted," the assistant said.
"Good. Once they're settled, let them start working," Everett said, sounding cold but satisfied.
The assistant agreed and then left.
Everett's expression darkened. He seemed lost in thought, like his mind was going somewhere deep.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a beautiful array of colors across the sky, Nicole and Lulu
made their way to the elevator, signaling the end of another day.
"Why did Patricia head out early? It doesn't seem like her to have other plans," Lulu inquired, her voice
tinged with confusion.
"She mentioned feeling a bit restless, so she decided to head to the port earlier than planned," Nicole
shared.
Lulu raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Why, though? The ship isn't here until tomorrow morning, right?"
"Guess she thinks she'll rest easier knowing everything's in place," Nicole reasoned.
Lulu sighed, a hint of resignation in her voice. "She's really pushing herself, even more than usual."
Nicole offered a reassuring smile. "Let's just give her some space. It might just be a phase that'll pass
soon enough."
Emotions always seek a way out.
"Alright, I'm off," Lulu announced as they stepped outside the company premises, spotting Spencer's
car. She waved to Nicole, "See you tomorrow." "Take care," Nicole smiled, returning the wave before
she made her way toward Jared's car.
Over at the port, Patricia had wrapped up all the necessary preparations and entrusted two individuals
with the oversight duties. "Stay alert tonight. Should anything out of the ordinary happen, I need to be
informed without delay." "Yes, captain," they answered in perfect harmony.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPatricia halted for a moment, "Remember, I'm no longer your captain."
The two exchanged puzzled looks, then shrugged. "Old habits die hard, so well just keep calling you
captain, if that's alright with you." "Yeah, captain," they echoed, a hint of camaraderie in their voices.
Patricia offered them a brief nod, accepting their gesture.
"Everyone else is dismissed for the day. Make sure to be back here bright and early tomorrow," Patricia
directed.
"Understood." The group quickly gathered their belongings, readying themselves to head out.
Patricia took a moment to look around, issuing a few last-minute instructions to the duo who would stay
through the night, preparing to leave herself. But just as she turned to go, a glimpse of movement
caught her eye-two figures swiftly moving in the shadows.
With her expression hardening, Patricia calmly instructed those nearby," Act naturally and disperse as if
everything is normal." "Got it." With a sense of urgency yet maintaining a facade of calm, they followed
Patricia's lead, feigning departure while on high alert.
