Chapter 2911

Author: Summer
Ellar was caught off guard, quickly composing himself as he rolled down his car window. Spotting Samuel, he couldn't resist an eye roll and asked, "Why does it have to be you?"

Samuel, with a curious tone, responded, "Funny, I was about to ask you the same thing. What brings you here? Why parked your car here?"

"Just gearing up for work," Ellar responded, attempting to sound casual.

"I might as well join you then," Samuel declared, opening the car door and hopping in.

Ellar shot him a look. "You're surprisingly free today, aren't you?"

Samuel shrugged. "Sort of. Had an event, but it was a no-go. Now I'm here, ran into you by chance."

With no real alternative, Ellar started the car, muttering, "Lucky me."

'Can't a guy even wallow in self-pity in peace?' he thought, a twinge of irritation surfacing. 'Is it too much to ask for a moment alone with my thoughts about a love that never started?'

Samuel, picking up on the mood, tilted his head. "Something up? You seem a bit out of sort

    "To keep them from suspecting anything, our legal team is still on it, but Max has taken over the next steps," Sean explained."Good," Nicole nodded. The subsequent arrangements indeed needed Max's involvement.Steve, looking a bit worried, asked, "Could they have already gotten a lead?"Nicole looked up at Sean and directed, "Have the legal department keep an eye on their movements."If they didn't show up, it might mean they already had a lead. But if they continued as usual, then Damien was likely testing them. This meant there was still a chance."Okay, I'll take care of it," said Sean."Hey, remember, they might try to deceive you," Steve reminded.Nicole nodded in agreement. "Got it, I'm aware."Soon after, Nicole left Sean's office and returned to her own. She pondered for a moment and sent the information to Max, instructing him to have someone keep watch.After Nicole put away her phone, her eyes narrowed slightly.

    "Okay," Nicole agreed, hanging up the phone.Nicole had Lulu arranging for someone to pick up Samuel and Ellar. After Lulu did so, she returned to Nicole's office."What's going on with him?" Lulu asked, clearly puzzled.Nicole shrugged helplessly, "Guess he was just feeling down." She briefly explained to Lulu what Samuel had told her.Lulu nodded in understanding. "Ah, so he was just putting on a brave front. Warned Charlie to treat Patricia well, then turned around and ended up crying himself.""What else could it be?" Nicole sighed, seeing that Ellar genuinely liked Patricia."But I'm curious," Lulu said, frowning slightly. "Patricia and Charlie don't really seem like a couple, do they? I mean, they care about each other, but it doesn't feel like a romantic thing."Nicole raised an eyebrow slightly. Lulu was quite perceptive.She hesitated to discuss Patricia and Charlie's relationship, considering their identities. Revealing too much could endanger their safety."Lulu, wh

    Sean and Steve also arrived at Nicole's office after hearing the news.Glancing at Ellar, Sean suggested with a frown, "Maybe we should just take him home.""That won't work, he refuses to go," Samuel explained. "I tried convincing him earlier, but he's adamant. He says he can't go home like this, it would worry his family.""Are you sure he's worried about his family, and not just embarrassed?" Steve asked skeptically."Even if that's true," Samuel shrugged, "sending him home in this state would definitely worry Uncle Dexter and Aunt Emma."Nicole agreed, "Sean, let's just keep him here. It's better not to worry them.""Alright, we'll leave him here. But is it okay for you?" Sean asked, still hesitant."It's fine. This way, I can keep an eye on him," Nicole nodded. Seeing Ellar out-of-it, she felt more at ease monitoring him herself."I'm here too, don't worry," Samuel volunteered.Steve glanced at Samuel with slight annoyance. "This mess is your doing, after all.""I didn't

    Patricia quickly regained her composure and said, "There's been movement from the Eastern Falcon at the hospital. Some of our guys got hurt, so I think we should discharge Charlie.""Recovering in the hospital is faster, but it's too dangerous now," she added with concern.Nicole raised an eyebrow slightly and replied, "That's up to you guys to decide."Patricia bit her lip, then spoke seriously, "I suggest we keep Charlie's discharge secret and then arrange for..."Understanding Patricia's intention, Nicole pondered for a moment before responding, "That could work. Let's try it.""Can I manage the personnel for this? I'll take responsibility for the whole thing," Patricia asked, eager to take the initiative, especially since Max was busy and Charlie, being injured, couldn't be involved in the mission."Sure, I'll leave it to you," Nicole agreed, realizing it was probably the best course of action. Max was occupied with more critical tasks, and Patricia, who proposed the plan and

    Patricia bit her lip, looking at Ellar's sad expression. She couldn't help but feel a tug at her heart."You should forget about me. It's impossible for us," she said, her voice filled with a mix of struggle and restraint.Deep down, Patricia knew their relationship couldn't be, constantly reminding herself to keep her distance. Yet, somehow, Ellar had managed to creep into her heart.She cared about him, wanted to know his feelings, worried, and thought about him often.But all these feelings could only lead to the painful truth that it was impossible. She couldn't afford to give him or herself any hope."Patricia, does he treat you well? Better than me, I bet," Ellar murmured, his voice filled with a mix of hope and sadness."I..." Patricia started to say but was cut off.Thud!Ellar fell off the couch."Hey, be careful," Patricia quickly helped him up, her voice laced with concern.Ellar, feeling a bit hurt from the fall, opened his eyes groggily. He saw a blurry figure th

    "She's at the hospital," Lulu said, waving her hand in front of Ellar's eyes. "You're not still hungover, are you?"As Ellar looked at Lulu, the hope in his eyes faded.'Right, why would Patricia be here? She's probably at the hospital, taking care of her boyfriend,' Ellar thought, feeling a sense of loss.Struggling to stand up, he suddenly felt dizzy and staggered."Take it easy," Lulu said, catching him instinctively. "Maybe you should rest a bit more.""I should head back," Ellar insisted, steadying himself and shrugging off Lulu's hand. His steps were heavy as he forced himself to leave."Can he make it on his own?" Lulu asked, worried.Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly. 'Why was he so sure Patricia would be here? Did Patricia really come last night?'Her gaze drifted to the coffee table, where a cup caught her attention.'That's a cup from the break room. It's unlikely Ellar went there himself, and it's Patricia's cup,' Nicole thought, realizing that Patricia must have ind

    Thinking about Ellar's drunken state, Patricia couldn't shake off a feeling of sadness. Yet, she knew there was nothing she could do but endure."Captain, there's some movement," Glenn alerted her. Patricia, lost in thought, didn't respond at first."Captain?" Glenn raised his voice."What is it?" Patricia snapped back to reality."There's some activity outside," he pointed out.Patricia stood up, her demeanor turning cooler. "I'll check it out."She opened the hospital room door and saw only a nurse passing by with a cart. Relieved, she closed the door and returned, muttering, "False alarm."Sitting back down, Patricia bit her lip, annoyed at herself for getting distracted. She tried to force herself to stop thinking about Ellar, but the more she tried, the clearer his image became in her mind."I need a break," Patricia said, feeling increasingly restless. She got up and left the room.Walking down the corridor, seeing other team members hidden around, helped Patricia regain

    The dagger came down hard, but instead of hitting its target, it stabbed into the bedding."Something's off!" shouted one of the intruders, realizing they must have fallen on to a trap.Lights in the room snapped on in an instant, and both groups were instantly locked in a wild scuffle. Patricia understood they'd taken the bait, and her main aim now was to nab these two intruders.Patricia hadn't forgotten the last ambush. This time, she made sure the area outside was empty, with only her and Glenn in the room, to avoid alerting the intruders."Glenn, let's make this quick!" Patricia shouted, knowing they had to act fast. She was aware that there were likely more people outside waiting to back up the intruders."Got it," Glenn replied, intensifying his movements.Patricia didn't waste any time either, launching a rapid attack. Soon, she gained the upper hand.With a powerful kick, Patricia knocked one of the assailants to the ground. The person clutched their chest, struggling t

    "Let's go, it's time to head down. The ceremony will start soon."The group laughed and talked as they left the bridal suite. Jared and his friends, Spencer and Preston, were also guided out by everyone.Now, only the family of four remained in the bridal suite, getting ready for their big entrance."Mommy, it's almost time. Let's get ready," Nolan said, pulling on Nicole's hand.Nicole gently patted Nolan and Lana's cheeks, whispering, "Okay."As she made to stand, Jared extended his hand toward her. Lifting her gaze, she caught Jared in a moment of elegance, his charm unmistakable. A smile bloomed on her face as she placed her hand in his.With a gentle tug, Jared drew her up, his touch tender against her palm.In a swift move, he pulled Nicole into his arms, his other hand circling her waist to pull her close.As Jared looked at Nicole, admiration shimmered in his eyes.

    Nicole laughed off the debate between Lulu and June, saying, "Both are lovely. I'm happy with either."Both sets of jewelry were beautiful, and she felt that either would do."Exactly. Nicole will shine in anything," Cindy said, picking a set. "Let's go with this one."Lulu gave June a victorious look. "Told you this was the one."Cindy then suggested, "Why not wear this for the ceremony and switch for the reception? That way, we use both.""Great idea," June agreed, smiling at Cindy's suggestion.Nicole smiled. "Sounds perfect."With everyone agreeing, the stylist went ahead with preparing Nicole.Lulu watched Nicole, amazed by how calm she seemed. "Aren't you a bit nervous?" she asked. Lulu remembered her own wedding jitters.Nicole bit her lip, a hint of nerves showing. "I'm more excited than anything," she admitted.She had been looking forward to this day, ready to face the future with Jared with hope and joy."Just finished," the stylist announced, stepping back to adm

    "Do you think I don't want to meet someone? I just haven't found the right person," Gary said somewhat resignedly. He had long regarded Nicole as just a friend."Why don't we just try the dates our families set up?" Ryder suggested, calm and collected. He figured since finding someone on his own wasn't working, maybe arranged dates could help. In their circles, it seemed like good matches were meant to be."Arranged dates don't sound great. You hardly know the person. Are we really okay with deciding to spend our lives together like that?" Preston wasn't too keen on the idea."Emery's doing pretty well with it, you know," Ryder said confidently. "I trust our families. They wouldn't set us up with someone terrible. They've probably made sure we'd be a good match."Gary thought it over. "You might be right. Our families aren't just trying to make deals; they want us to be happy."As Gary and Ryder seemed more into the idea, Preston was still unsure. "You guys are serious?""Why not

    Jared held Nicole close and looked at her. "After we get married, we'll move to the estate," he said.Their future home would be just theirs.He thought it was good for Nicole to spend more time with her family since she hadn't been with them for five years. But they knew they would move to the estate later."Okay," Nicole said, nodding. She was happy Jared made the estate close to her family, so she was okay with moving.Jared gently touched her hair and kissed her...****Time flew, and soon it was Nicole and Jared's wedding day.From the morning, San Joto was alive with excitement. Everyone was talking about Jared and Nicole's wedding.Politicians, business leaders, close friends, and business partners all came to wish the couple well.The Riddles were busy welcoming the guests, making everything look amazing."Patricia, hurry up, Charlie's here," Ellar called out as he spotted Charlie. He quickly got Patricia to come and greet him. Max, hearing the fuss, came over too.C

    "You really need to rest. You shouldn't work for the next few days. Stay home and rest. A bride has to look her best," Gloria said, looking at Nicole and making the decision for her."Bride!" Nicole was surprised because she hadn't talked about any wedding yet."Yes, now that everything is settled, it's time for your wedding with Jared," Gloria said, deciding firmly. She used to think it was best for the kids to decide for themselves, but after several delays, she felt waiting longer made no sense. The wedding should happen soon."I was thinking that too," Jared said. They had planned the wedding after solving the Everett problem, but then they found out Lawrence had hurt Nicole in the past, causing more delays. Now, with everything sorted out, they saw no reason to wait. The wedding was the next big step.Nicole looked at Jared and, with a smile, agreed, "Okay." Their wedding had been waiting for five years; it was time, with no need to wait any longer."That's so cool, I'm the f

    Patricia felt a mix of reluctance and happiness as she prepared to part ways with Charlie.Jared glanced at Charlie and said, "It's about time for us to board." He tenderly held Nicole's hand and led her toward the boarding gate."I need to go through the boarding procedures too," Patricia said, biting her lip. "You must find happiness as well.""I will," Charlie assured her with a gentle smile, giving her a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "You've grown up, too. You don't need to cling to me anymore. I believe Ellar will take great care of you."Patricia nodded, then, leaning closer to Charlie, she whispered, 'When Mr. Johnston and Ms. Riddle get married, make sure you bring my future sister-in-law back with you.' Caught off guard, Charlie playfully scolded her, "You little rascal."Doretta, standing not too far away, overheard Patricia's whispered words. Her cheeks turned even redder."Let's go," Patricia announced, then turned to Doretta, adding, "We'll meet again.""Goodbye,

    Lying in bed with Nicole cradled in his arms, Jared whispered gently, "Sleep for a bit.""Mhm." Finally feeling at peace, Nicole smiled slightly, and she quickly fell asleep.As Jared listened to her soft breathing, his eyes softened with affection, and he too closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.The next morning, as the group got ready to head back to San Joto, Zane and Doretta came to say goodbye."I still have things to finish here, but I promise to be at your wedding," Zane said with a big smile."And I'll be there to wish you well, Nicole," Doretta added.Saying goodbye is always hard, but everyone knew they had their own journeys to continue."Great, we'll see you in San Joto," Nicole said with a bright smile."It's time to go," Zane said, knowing they couldn't wait any longer without risking missing their plane."I've got the paperwork," Patricia said, ready to help with the travel documents for Jared and Nicole. Then, looking at Charlie, she asked, "Need help with

    Nicole was quiet, thinking about everything. 'If I hadn't remembered everything, maybe Lawrence and I could have stayed friends. But after finding out about the airport, it's impossible...'Not only had she regained her memory, but she had also learned about the airport incident. Lawrence had gone to great lengths to prevent her from returning to San Joto."Thanks for saving me before, but you also hurt me. We're even now," Nicole said calmly, looking at Lawrence like he was someone she didn't know anymore.Jared squeezed Nicole's hand gently. "Let's go."They decided to leave the rest to Zane and head back."Wait." Lawrence's voice stopped Nicole. He sounded almost like he was begging. "Please, don't tell Nolan about this."Nicole paused, then said, "I won't tell him. Not for you, but because I don't want Nolan to see how bad people can be."With that, Nicole walked away with Jared.Lawrence sat down, watching her leave, with mixed feelings."Let's go too," Patricia said to C

    "Your robots don't work anymore," a voice said, sounding very pleased. Then, a person came out from behind the crowd, looking pretty proud of himself."Carl!" Nicole was shocked to see him. 'It's Carl!'"It's been a while." Carl smiled and waved at Nicole.Carl had come as soon as Zane told him about the problem. He couldn't just do nothing when Nicole needed help.He didn't expect them to act so soon, which is why he was a little late. But he was still in time to help. Carl was surprised by Lawrence's robots at first, but luckily, the weapons he brought, which he had been working on for years, stopped the robots. This was a big help to everyone."We really need to thank Carl; we would have been in big trouble without him," Zane said, feeling relieved.Zane had asked Carl for help, hoping it would make them more likely to win, but Carl ended up being very important."Thank you," Nicole said with a warm smile. It was nice to see an old friend again."No need to thank me. I'm jus
