Chapter 2964

Nicole, deep in thought, wondered, “Is there really no better way to help Patricia?” She was determined, though. “I won’t give up. There has to be a way.”

She was set on finding a solution for Patricia’s recovery.

Lulu, tilting her head, suggested, “Why not ask your mentor for help?”

Nicole sighed, “I’ve tried reaching him, but he might be in seclusion again.” She had already informed her mentor about Patricia’s situation but got no response.

Lulu, feeling sorry, said, “Why is Patricia so unlucky? Who can help her?”

It seemed they had to stick to the slower approach Nicole and Martin were taking, hoping for the best solution eventually.

Arriving at Riddle Corporation, Nicole and Lulu got out of the car.

Nicole noticed a car that had been following them. It stopped by the roadside.

The driver and passengers didn’t seem suspicious, so Nicole guessed Jared had sent them. This thought brought a small smile to her face.

“What are you looking at?” Lulu asked, seeing Nicole pause.

“It’s nothing, let’s go,” Nicole replied, leading Lulu inside Riddle Corporation.

After a busy day, it was time to leave the office.

Lulu arrived at Nicole’s office, “They should be here by now, let’s go.”

“Okay,” Nicole said, and they left together.

“Nolan and Lana spent the day with Great-grandpa, and he was thrilled,” Lulu shared happily.

Nicole nodded, “Dad said Grandpa didn’t want them to leave. He invited us all for dinner.”

“Yes, June and Samuel are on their way too,” Lulu added.” We should hurry.”

Outside the company, Jared and Spencer were waiting for them.

They got into their cars and headed to the Riddle family manor.

When they arrived, Stanley and Tia had just gotten there too.

“Nicole,” Tia called out, waving to Nicole.

The group entered the Riddle family manor one after the other.

As expected, Samuel and June had already arrived, but Steve and Sean were yet to come.

“Where are Sean and Steve?” Samuel inquired, noticing their absence.

Nicole shook her head, and then Gloria explained, “Steve went to accompany Sally to the hospital, and Sean had an engagement, so neither of them could come.”

Everyone understood and didn’t press further.

They greeted Benjamin as they gathered around the couch.

“Please, take a seat,” Benjamin said, looking quite well.

Nolan and Lana sat in front of Benjamin. Benjamin looked happy and healthy.

“We haven’t arrived too late, have we?” Dexter and Emma entered with a smile.

“No, not at all,” Gloria responded warmly.

As it got late and everyone had sat down, they noticed Ellar hadn’t arrived yet.

“Where’s Ellar?” someone asked.

“Who knows,” Emma said, slightly annoyed. “He just said he was busy and might come if he had time, and if not, he wouldn’t. I don’t even know what he’s up to.”

Even Emma seemed unable to ascertain Ellar’s whereabouts.
