NovelEnglishChapter 3197 Soon, Patricia arrived at the location she had been forewarned about, yet Emma was nowhere to be seen.
"Hasn't she arrived yet?" Patricia frowned and inquired.
"This... we find it strange too. We've already sent someone to check.” Just as Seth finished speaking, his phone rang.
After he answered the call, his expression turned grave. "What?!" Patricia immediately took the phone away from him and pressed for details. "What happened?" "We've been deceived. Doretta changed the meeting location at the last minute, and now both Emma and Doretta have vanished," the person on the line lamented.
"Go check." Patricia uttered two words coldly and then hung up the phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What should we do now?" Seth was distressed that they had just lost track of them.
Patricia felt a pang of panic but forced herself to remain calm; this was not the tto lose her composure.
Fifteen minutes later, Patricia returned to Riddle Corporation.
After hurrying into Nicole's office, she quickly relayed the situation.
Nicole's expression shifted slightly, but she soon regained her composure, saying, "They're probably trying to use Emma to threaten Ellar. Emma won't be in danger for now." "Why would Mrs. Riddle be so careless? Why did she avoid our security personnel?" Patricia lamented. She couldn't understand why Emma had gone to meet Doretta alone despite knowing the risks. x] "It's likely that Doretta said something, and Emma, worried about Doretta, dared not bring anyone with her," Nicole speculated.
Patricia was somewhat anxious. "I wonder when there will be news on Everett." "Go and check on Ellar. You'll definitely get snews when you stay with him," Nicole instructed Patricia.
"Yes, Ms. Riddle." Patricia acknowledged and left.
Nicole bit her lip slightly, worried about Emma, but knowing that calmness was essential at this moment.
She believed that since Everett had captured Emma, he wouldn't harm her before achieving his goal, and that was their window of opportunity. They needed to buy time, hoping to rescue Emma safely. To accomplish this, Ellar's cooperation might be crucial.
After quickly organizing her thoughts, Nicole called Ellar and explained the situation clearly, instructing him on the next steps.
"Alright, got it, Nicole," Ellar replied, his voice sounding serious.
"You need to stay calm now. We'll work together to rescue Emma," Nicole advised gently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Okay." Ellar paused, then asked, "Patricia went out earlier because of this, didn't she?" He could easily deduce that the call Patricia received must have been about this situation; she went alone not wanting him to worry, but unfortunately, her attempt was still unsuccessful.
"I've asked Patricia to return. Coordinate well with her," Nicole responded.
"Okay." After affirming, Ellar ended the call.
Hearing that Eliar was relatively composed, Nicole felt somewhat relieved, thinking that as long as Ellar remained calm, they could temporarily proceed with the planned actions, feeling there was still shope.
After a while, Patricia returned to BayCorp.
Seeing Ellar's expression, Patricia understood immediately and said softly," You already know." "Nicole called me," Ellar replied.
"I'm sorry, | didn't expect Doretta to change the meeting place at the last minute, and | didn’t get to see your mother." And now, they didn't even know Emma's whereabouts.
