Chapter 2768

“Nicole, I’ve come to deliver good news,” Ellar said with a cheerful smile.

“Wow, that’s quick!” Nicole was surprised.

They had discussed the matter in passing last night, and yet, the results were already in.

“Yes, I got the news, so I came over to tell you right away.” Ellar proudly handed the documents to Nicole. “Please, take a look!”

Nicole rolled her eyes and grabbed the documents.

After flipping through them, she nodded in approval.” Excellent. Keep up the good work. I believe you’ll be able to secure the project.”

“Although we’ve only passed the bidding phase this time, I will work hard for the project,” Ellar said.

He had invested a great deal of effort into this project, so it was natural for him to hope for a positive outcome.

“You know, for something like this, you could have just faxed it to me. Why bother coming over in person?” Nicole asked after placing the documents down.

“Well, it’s quite a big deal for me, so I had to come and inform you in person. Besides, I’ve already planned to treat everyone to a meal after I won the bidding. I hope you’ll all come,” Ellar said while giving Patricia an involuntary glance.

Though Ellar had come to deliver documents to Nicole, he was actually here to check on Patricia.

Nicole had assured him yesterday that Patricia was fine, but as he had not seen her, he was not too convinced. It was a concern he had very little control over, so when he received the news this morning, he was ecstatic, and took the opportunity to rush over.

Nicole, who knew what he was up to, was amused by Ellar’s actions. His intentions were too obvious.

In addition, Patricia had also noticed what Ellar was up to.

After giving him a resentful glare, she coldly said, “Mr. Riddle? If you’re done reporting, you may go back now. I still have work to do.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

It was her subtle way of saying, ‘You’re disturbing me, so I’ll appreciate it if you’d just leave.1 Hearing that, Ellar immediately agreed and turned to Nicole. “Hey, urn, I think I’ll get going now.”

“Okay.” Nicole furrowed her brows. ‘Is he really going to leave just like that?’

Her lips were pursed as she watched him disappear through the door. ‘What is he even doing?’

Meanwhile, Patricia was glad. With Ellar gone, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued to report on the situation regarding Damien.

Nicole also withdrew her gaze, not bothering to ask Patricia about her situation with Ellar, and listened attentively to her findings.

“So, are you saying that Damien is conveying messages to someone?” Nicole frowned, puzzled by Damien’s enigmatic behavior.

“Yes, and it’s confirmed that it’s definitely not Everett. Moreover, Everett is still holed up abroad and hasn’t returned,” Patricia said solemnly.

“Do you think it’s possible that Damien is contacting the Eastern Falcon organization?” Patricia queried.

Considering Damien’s peculiar actions, Nicole noticed that all of his strange habits seemed to have started after their encounter with the Eastern Falcon.

“It’s possible.” Nicole nodded in agreement, after which she pondered for a moment. “But how did he manage to contact these people?”

Although Damien has been managing business in San Joto for many years, earning him connections with the powerful and influential, it still made no sense that he could contact a mercenary organization such as the Eastern Falcon all on his own.

All in all, it seemed they did not understand Damien well enough. The fact that he could secretly contact such an organization was a testament that they had underestimated him.

“Ms. Riddle, how should we proceed?” Patricia asked Nicole softly.

Nicole stopped and pondered for a moment, whereupon she looked at Patricia. “Have someone follow him and find a way to discover who he’s in contact with.”

They needed direct evidence as all they had to work with were speculations and assumptions.

“Understood,” Patricia responded.

“Okay. You may leave now,” Nicole told Patricia.

Patrician then excused herself, turned around, and walked out of Nicole’s office.

After that, Nicole leaned back against her chair and narrowed her eyes. Then, she uploaded a copy of Nolan’s game on her computer and examined it.
