My Wife is a Hacker

Chapter 3063

The next day, Patricia attended the bidding, and Riddle Corporation emerged as the successful bidder.

Handing over the documents to Nicole, Patricia reported, "Ms. Riddle, everything went smoothly.”

"Good job," Nicole acknowledged, taking the documents.

Lulu couldn't resist asking, "What was Everett's reaction?"

"He seemed shocked at first, then he left with a grim expression," Patricia replied, her voice tinged with

coldness. "I'm sure he's figured it out by now."

"Probably," Nicole agreed, her eyes narrowing slightly, knowing Everett wasn't one to be

underestimated.

"Dealing with him is only going to get tougher," Lulu murmured.

As they spoke, Patricia's phone rang suddenly.

Frowning, she answered the call, "What's up?"

"I'll be right there." After hanging up, Patricia looked at Nicole anxiously." Ms. Riddle, there's a sudden

issue at the port. I need to go check it out."

"Be careful," Nicole advised, sensing the urgency of the situation. She knew it wasn't the time to ask for

details; Patricia needed to handle it first.

"Absolutely," Patricia agreed hastily, knowing she could only explain upon her return.

As Lulu watched Patricia leave, her expression grew even more serious. "It wouldn't be Everett

messing with our raw materials again, would it?"

Nicole's expression darkened slightly. "Could be," she replied, understanding the seriousness of the

situation.

Lulu sighed, wishing Patricia could sort things out easily.

At the SeaQuartet Holdings office, Everett returned with Jerry by his side.

"They set a trap for US, sir. Did they know about our plan from the start?" Jerry asked, his brow

furrowed in confusion. 'Nicole seems to have figured out our plan, but how? It's supposed to be a

secret.'

"Patricia's arrival was just a trick to catch US off guard," Everett grumbled, annoyed with himself for not

anticipating surprises.

"But how did she find out about our plan?" Jerry wondered.

"It doesn't matter. What matters is that I failed," Everett said coldly.

Everett didn't dwell on how or why Nicole had discovered their plans. He knew her talent for secrecy

was formidable, and he realized it was arrogant to assume his plan was foolproof. Clearly, Nicole had

hidden her cards well.

"So, what's our next move?" Jerry asked.

"Forget about it," Everett replied, his eyes reflecting indifference as he glanced at Jerry. "What's the All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

situation at the port? There should be updates by now, right?"

"Yeah, the shipment that arrived today isn't the raw materials we were expecting."

"Good," Everett's mood lifted a bit. "At least we're not entirely defeated yet. It's too soon to jump to

conclusions. I'm prepared to play the long game."

At noon, right after lunch, the meal Lulu had ordered arrived, but Patricia hadn't come back yet.

"Why's it taking so long? I hope everything's okay," Lulu said, feeling anxious.

"Let's give it a little more time," Nicole suggested, her expression turning serious.

Suddenly, a knock sounded on the office door.
