Chapter 3222 "Alright, but I think Grandpa just wants to ask around; you and Uncle Dexter shouldn't worry too much," Nicole reassured.
"Still, over the phone, Dexter sounded a bit evasive. I'd better go over and see for myself," Daniel sighed.
"Then tell Grandpa that we can't move against Everett just yet; we need him. Ask Grandpa to be a bit more patient," Nicole advised.
Daniel nodded. "Alright, I'll relay that to him." He thought, 'That might help calm Dad down, especially if he hears Nicole's reasoning." After breakfast, everyone departed from the Riddle residence.

After dropping off the kids, Nicole arrived at the Riddle Corporation.
"Nicole, is there any new news?" Lulu immediately approached Nicole in her office, asking in a low voice.
W'Not yet, we still have to wait a bit longer," Nicole replied.
"Oh," Lulu sighed, "This Everett really keeps US on our toes. | just hope he gets caught soon." Nicole offered a reassuring smile, "Don’t worry, he won't get far." "By the way, are Patricia and Ellar ready to be discharged?" Lulu shifted the topic.
"Patricia should be, but Ellar might need a couple more days," Nicole responded, looking at Lulu, "Why do you ask all of a sudden?" Lulu frowned slightly, pondering aloud, "Well, when | delivered breakfast today, Patricia said they wouldn't need it starting tomorrow. | thought they were getting dischar@g." "They wont need it anymore?" Nicole also appeared puzzled.
"Yeah, if they're not being discharged, then what's the reason?’ Lulu was curious, wondering, 'Could it be that someone else will be bringing them meals?’ Nicole thought for a moment and said, "Let's visit them after work." She felt uneasy not knowing the exact situation and thought it best to see for herself.
"That sounds good. Let's go together after work," Lulu agreed.
"Alright," Nicole nodded.
Lulu gave a small smile. "Okay, I'll get back to work then." After a busy day, it was finally tto leave the office.

"Nicole, Lulu, you're here,” El | ar greeted them, sitting up as they entered.
"Don't move around too much; stay in bed," Lulu cautioned, worried Ellar might aggravate his wounds.
"I'm fine; I've gotten much better," Ellar reassured, settling back. He gestured for Nicole and Lulu to take a seat, ‘Sit, Patricia went to prepare dinner; she should be back soon." "Patricia is preparing it?" Lulu asked, puzzled.
Just then, Patricia entered with a thermal container in hand, pausing in surprise upon seeing Nicole and Lulu.
Recognizing the container as the one they previously used, Lulu eyed Patricia. "Are you making it yourself?" Patricia appeared slightly flustered. "Oh, | just thought it would be easier than troubling everyone to bring meals, so | decided to prepare something myself." "That's impressive, knowing you for so long, | didn't realize you could cook, " Lulu remarked, her tone teasing but with a hint of meaningful curiosity.
Feeling somewhat defensive, Patricia could only insist, "It's just ssimple dishes, and we're about to be discharged anyway, so it's just to make do." "But that won't do; you're both patients right now, you can't just make do. | think we should continue bringing nutritious meals for you," Lulu playfully suggested, clearly catching on to Patricia's intent.
