"None of you should let your guard down as far as Eliar is concerned."
Even if her adversaries stayed their hands for extended periods of time, there was no guarantee that
they would not do anything at all.
"Understood." Patricia replied, her eyes brimming with determination.
If they were to make a move, she would bag them with no hope of escaping.
Seeing that they were intentionally being secretive, Patricia wanted to dig even deeper and discover
what kind of person they were.
"That's all. You may leave now." Nicole sighed and placed the letter aside.
Then, she grabbed one of her documents and got to work.
There were plenty of tasks left for Nicole to sort out, so she did not have the time to waste on threats or Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
gusts of hot air.
Patricia turned around and left. Then, she called Charlie up on the phone to liaise with him on the
issue.
"I got it. Just be careful with everything," Charlie advised Patricia.
"Yeah, you too," Patricia replied before ending the call.
Patricia frowned a little and thought through the situation. After a moment of consideration, she decided
to visit BayCorp.
Both Ell ar and Patricia had decided on what they would do in the event the threats in the previous
letter were actualized. But now that the situation had changed, she had to inform Ell ar and implement
the necessary precautions.
Soon after, Patricia arrived at BayCorp.
"What are you doing here? Did something happen to Nicole? " Ellar asked in a panic.
In turn, Patricia calmly explained, "She is fine. If anything had happened to her, I would not have been
here right now."
"Oh, you're right." Ellar scratched his head.
Indeed, if something had happened to Nicole, Patricia would have been by her side, aiding her against
her enemies.
"I'm here to tell you that Nicole has received another anonymous letter, so you're not exactly safe here.
It's better for you to be more cautious from now on. I must also tell you not to go anywhere without the
security detail I've assigned you." Patricia advised.
Those two individuals had been tasked to protect Ellar, so there was absolutely no room for
carelessness.
"I got it. Don't worry," he replied.
Ellar had been very cautious ever since he was informed of the letter. In addition, Nicole was the prime
target of their enemies too, so he would do well not to allow anyone to capitalize on him being the weak
link among the Riddles.
"That's good." Patricia nodded in satisfaction.
However, she was rather sure that Ellar was a ticking time bomb which would deal everyone a severe
blow if he were to go off. There was no telling what would happen if Patricia did not do something to
ensure he did not.
"So, you mentioned that there's a new letter. What does it say?" Ellar asked, trembling and worried.
'Is it another challenge for Nicole? Why are they pestering her?' Ellar wondered.
"It's nothing. Just remember what I've told you," Patricia finished, and was about to leave when Ellar
called out to her.
"You're leaving?" Ellar asked out of the blue.
"Is there anything else?" Patricia stopped in her steps and turned to look at Ellar.
Naturally, Ellar seemed to be a little nervous. "It's almost noon. I'm heading out for lunch soon. Why
don't you join me? If
"I'll pass," Patricia declined.
"You'll still have to go out for lunch, right?" Ellar persisted. "I have a few things to discuss with you as
well."
Patricia frowned, and after a second or two, she relented." Alright then."
"Let's go now." Ellar smiled.
They found a restaurant, sat down and began to order their food.
"What is it?" Patricia asked, her tone cold and crass.
"Oh, it's nothing too serious. I just want to ask about the anonymous letter. Is Nicole in danger? Who is
eyeing her?
Why are they so secretive?" Ellar asked in rapid succession while Patricia's frown deepened.
