Chapter 2587
Everything seemed to have returned to normal, and everyone had gone back to their respective lives, becoming
busy once again.
The two newlywed couples were still on their honeymoons, and everyone else had reached a unanimous, unspoken
agreement to not disturb them. Life appeared to have returned to its usual course.
Upon hearing a knock on the door, Nicole placed the documents in her hand down and looked up at the door."
Come in."
Patricia entered, wearing a somewhat solemn look on her face. "Miss Nicole, an urgent fax from Ellar."
"What happened to him?" Nicole furrowed her brow as she reached out to grab the fax.
After reading the contents, a grimace crossed her face." How could this happen?"

Nicole squinted as a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, and that was when she ordered, "Investigate this."
"Yes," Patricia responded before leaving the room.
Nicole's gaze was dark as she perused the details. Ellar did not fax over a mere document; it was an investigation
report. It was about a project that BayCorp was currently handling, which had reached the inspection phase, but
were marred with issues now.
Though BayCorp was the most challenging company under the Riddle Corporation to manage, Ellar had been
gradually bringing it back on track. Besides, Nicole knew fairly well about these projects, and Ellar would never
allow any major problems to occur during the inspection phase, as BayCorp could not afford the consequences.
Now that such an issue had arisen, Nicole began to suspect that someone was overtly targeting BayCorp.
She tightened her grip around the document as she bit her lip slightly. 'Who could it be, and what had actually
happened?'
Just as she was lost in thought, her phone rang.
Glancing at it, she saw that it was Ellar and proceeded to answer the call.
"Nicole, have you read my fax? Can you figure out what went wrong?" Ellar asked, his voice carrying a hint of
urgency and anxiety.
He had busted his ass to bring BayCorp to its current state of recovery and improvement. If something went wrong
now, all of his efforts would be in vain, and the company might suffer severe consequences on top of that.
"I've already gotten Patricia to investigate this. Don't worry. She'll come back with updates for us soon," Nicole
reassured Ellar.
"Why is this happening? I've been extremely cautious." Ellar said, feeling somewhat remorseful and even a little
disheartened. ’Or am I just not capable enough?'

wait for Patricia's findings."
"Someone..." Ellar paused after uttering the first word, shocked. "Who would target us?! We're not some massive,
multi-billion dollar corporation. The projects we take on are the ones that larger companies don't even consider!"
'Seriously? BayCorp? Out of all the other companies?' Ellar wondered.
"Perhaps they think you're growing stronger, so they're trying to eliminate a potential competitor before you
become a force to be reckoned with," Nicole teased.
"In that case, I'll take it as a good sign," Ellar responded in a more lighthearted tone.
"You should take care of other matters for now. I'll inform you when Patricia returns," Nicole said, relieved.
With that, Ellar agreed, "Okay. Thank you, Nicole."
After hanging up, Nicole's gaze returned to the fax. She could not help but recall Ellar's words. Their company was
relatively small, and it did seem very strange that someone would target them.
For some reason, her mind suspicions settled on this particular individual at once - Harvey. It seemed that
Harvey had always harbored devious intent for several of the branches of Riddle Corporation. Now that DillCorp and
NandoCorp had returned to Riddle Corporation, BayCorp was the only one that had been left undisturbed.
