My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2729

After thinking about it for a moment, Nicole smiled. "He has grown up."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Lulu asked in confusion.

"He's taking on the project. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he's also planning to take charge of

everything on his own." Nicole explained.

Ellar's intentions were probably aligned with Nicole's expectations for him; he wanted to succeed

through his own efforts.

"Oh, so that is what has been going on. And there I was, wondering why he had been so quiet." Lulu

finally understood the situation.

"If that's the case, we should just leave him to do what he needs to do. If he stumbles on a roadblock,

he will contact us." Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

And if Ellar did not contact them, it would be safe to assume that everything was smooth sailing.

"What about the threat? Are we just going to act as if nothing has happened?" Lulu asked.

Though she felt that there were no issues concerning Ellar, she was still worried about Nicole.

"Patricia and Charlie will take care of it. Patricia has also informed Ellar about it. So, there's no need to

stress over it,"

Nicole replied.

Since they had taken the necessary precautions, Nicole was not worried about anything at all.

"Alright. I'll get back to work if there isn't anything else." Lulu nodded and left.

Now alone, Nicole narrowed her eyes and recalled the words on the letter. |Go to the abandoned

factory in the village on your own. Otherwise, BayCorp will get into hot soup within three days.]

She did not go over. Ellar’s side was also quiet and calm in the meantime. Then, what was the person's

actual motive for sending such a threat?

While Nicole was dwelling in her thoughts, the secretary knocked on the door and entered.

"Ma'am, there's an anonymous delivery again," the secretary spluttered, her face pale, and her tone

panicky.

"Give it to me." Nicole grabbed the envelope, looked at it for a moment, and opened it.

As expected, it was a letter made out of newspaper cutouts again. However, the message this time was

different from the previous one. This time around, it was an ultimatum.

[Since you've gone against the instructions, you'll have to bear the consequences.]

"Just like that?" Nicole frowned.

If the sender was really intent on intimidating her, it would make even more sense for them to attack

BayCorp immediately instead of sending her a letter warning her about what they were about to do.

"Ma'am, are you fine?" the secretary asked Nicole, as she did not understand what Nicole just meant.

Instead of answering, Nicole turned around and ordered," Ask Patricia to come over."

"Understood," the secretary replied and spun around before exiting the office.

After a minute, Patricia strode into the office.

Upon arrival, she paused upon noticing the letter and frowned. "He sent another letter?"

"Yeah." Nicole passed it to Patricia.

After Patricia had read its contents, her eyes widened in shock. "Just like that?"

She did not understand what the sender was trying to do.' Are they trying to be more mysterious than

they actually are?'

"I find it odd too. What are they actually trying to do?" Nicole asked as her eyes glinted with cold fury.

The previous letter was clearly a trap, goading her to go to the abandoned factory alone. Although she

had not taken the bait, she had made the necessary preparations.

However, nothing had happened to Ellar. Instead, Nicole had received another threat. One after

another, threat after threat, and yet, they had not done anything to warrant a response. This had led

Nicole to wonder if they were just waiting for the right time to pounce.

But if the time isn’t right, won't it be easier for them to just shut up and bide their time? Why would they

send me an anonymous letter and put me on guard?' Nicole thought.

'Ma'am, they're not trying to test your patience, are they?" Patricia frowned as she speculated.

After all, they could do this long and often enough to trick Nicole into thinking those were just empty

threats. Then, once Nicole was desensitized, they would strike.

"No, that doesn't seem to be the case." Nicole shook her head.

If that was indeed their intention, Nicole would just put more countermeasures in place.

"What do they actually want, then?" Patricia asked, confused.

After biting her lip, Nicole answered, "Let's just wait and see."

"Okay." Patricia agreed, for it was the only thing they could do at the moment.
