Chapter 3182 "It's just dinnertime; let's have dinner together," Everett suggested, eyeing Doretta closely. He was quietly impressed. 'She's so composed, exactly the type who could turn on Emma and Ellar.' "Mr. Wright, based on what I've seen, Ellar is in a tight spot but is trying to hide it," Doretta got straight to the point. "He's spent the afternoon scheming to lessen BayCorp's losses." "What do you mean?" Everett's curiosity piqued, his eyebrows arching.
Doretta let out a sigh. "It's unfortunate he believes he’s outsmarting everyone, thinking he can offload BayCorp's assets now. You wouldn't let that happen, would you, Mr. Wright?" Everett's smirk was telling. "You're spot-on.” Allowing Ell ar any leeway was out of the question. His plan was to take everything BayCorp had.
"That's reassuring," Doretta remarked, getting up. "I'll leave you to your dinner then." "You're not joining?" Everett inquired.
Doretta shook her head and said, "No, thank you. | just cto tell you about my work. Also, it's best not to hang out with you too long. Someone might be watching." Everett watched her leave, his gaze laden with thought.

Everett's response was icy. "She has nothing to gain by lying." It would be pointless for her to deceive him.
Jerry looked concerned. "So, Ellar is merely stalling?" "We act tomorrow," declared Everett, his determination evident.
"Understood," Jerry agreed. a They had to move quickly if Doretta’s information was accurate. Any delay might allow Ellar to complete his asset shuffle, rendering their efforts futile.
The next day was sunny and bright.
Early in the morning, Patricia told Nicole about what happened last night.
"Be careful," Nicole told her.
"I will," Patricia replied.
After the call, Nicole looked worried. "Everett might act today." "You think Everett believed Doretta?" Lulu asked, looking concerned.
They knew Doretta had met Everett yesterday. They didn't know what they had talked about, but it probably involved Ellar's actions.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEverett wouldn't sit idly by after hearing what Doretta had said; he would definitely take action.
"The next steps depend on Patricia and Ellar," Nicole said seriously.
"And... after today's events, what will becof Doretta?" Lulu asked tentatively. If their plan worked, and Everett was fooled, Doretta's cover would be blown. Ellar wouldn't forgive her, and Everett would no longer trust her, leaving her with nowhere to go.
"Let her leave San Joto. Emma doesn’t know what's happening. Charging Doretta would reveal everything, hurting Emma," Nicole explained.
Lulu agreed, "It's probably the best choice, even if Doretta seems to get away with it." Nicole smiled slightly. "She did help US, and we didn't lose anything." They used Doretta's betrayal to their advantage. They decided not to punish her, thinking of Emma.
"She must be upset," Lulu said, a bit gleefully.
"Let's wait and see. Our next steps depend on Ellar and Patricia. We'll decide after that," Nicole said, focusing on the current situation.
"I'll head out then," Lulu said, leaving Nicole's office.
