"But my mom said she wants to invite you over for dinner. You haven't been there in
several days, and she even asked me if I did something to upset you. If you don't go, she'll
definitely think I made you angry, and I'll get an earful," Ellar pleaded with Patricia, looking
pitiful.
"You could explain it to her," Patricia said, somewhat helplessly.
"I could explain a thousand times, but it won't be as effective as you showing up," Ellar
sighed. "I feel like I must have been adopted and not actually born to my mom."
Patricia couldn't help but laugh. "I have plans tonight. How about this: I'll go back with you
to chat a little with your mom, but then I have to leave."
She had already made plans with Charlie to investigate the person connected to Doretta

"As long as you agree," Ellar instantly brightened up, his eyes shining.
"Remember, I really have something to do and can't stay long,” Patricia reminded him
again.
"I know, just your presence is enough," Ellar sighed in relief, genuinely afraid of going
back home only to be scolded by his mom.
Watching Ellar happily leave, Patricia chuckled and shook her head.

In the late afternoon, the sun was strong.
Nicole and Lulu were on their way back after having dinner.
"Patricia is going over to Emma's place tonight. Maybe we could join?" Lulu said, grinning.
"Your undying spirit for gossip really is something," Nicole couldn't help but laugh.
"Let's just join in the fun. Plus, I really want to see what Doretta is like, to be so clever and
cunning." Lulu was genuinely curious. After all, Doretta was
just a distant relative; why would Emma care so much?
Nicole hesitated for a moment before agreeing. "Alright." With Doretta starting at the
company tomorrow, it would be good for them to get a sense of who she was beforehand.
"Then let's head out together after work." Lulu said.
She then pulled out her phone to call spencer. "I have plans tonight, so you don't need to
pick me up. I’ll make my own way home." "Where are you going?" Spencer asked.
"I'm going to Dexter’s house with Nicole," Lulu explained.
Hearing that she would be with Nicole, Spencer wasn't as worried. "Okay."
After hanging up, Lulu looked at Nicole. “Is Jared coming to pick you up?” "I'll let him
know,” Nicole said, sending a message to Jared.

"Mr. Johnston, is there something wrong?" Max asked quietly.
"It's nothing," Jared replied, then instructed Max, "Tell Mr. Lampman that I will be attending
the dinner." "Yes," Max responded, understanding that Nicole must have something to do,
so Jared wouldn't be picking her up.
Jared's eyes slightly narrowed as he asked, "The information you gathered about the
leader of the Eastern Falcon, have you passed it to Zane?" "It's already been sent. Rest
assured," Max nodded.
"From now on, you don't need to look into this matter. Zane will handle it," Jared paused
before adding, "As for the forces Everett brought to San Joto from the Eastern Falcon,
make sure your people thoroughly investigate and leave no stone unturned." "Yes," Max
replied seriously. If they could find all these people, it indeed had the potential to
dismantle Everett's strength.
