My Wife is a Hacker

After finishing the cream soup, Ellar turned to Patricia and said, "I know you're worried about Charlie. You don't need to stay here with me; go and check on him." "Are you sure you'll be okay?" Patricia asked, concerned.

She wanted to visit Charlie, but she also wanted to make sure Ellar was taken care of.

"I'll be fine. There are caregivers and nurses here if I need anything," Eliar reassured her. "Besides, Charlie’s injuries might be serious even though he's not in critical condition. You'll feel better once you see him for yourself.

Feeling touched by his concern, Patricia agreed, "Okay, I'll go see him and be back soon." "Be careful on your way there, and let the caregiver go with you. You're not fully recovered yet," Ellar reminded her.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine,” Patricia assured him with a smile and left the hospital room.

Ell ar smiled faintly, watching Patricia's cheerful demeanor. Her happiness meant a lot to him.

After leaving the hospital, Patricia went to visit Charlie, while Nicole and Jared headed to the Riddle Corporation.

"Zane said they searched all night and combed the entire mountain but didn't find Everett. They only discovered a hidden path after dawn, likely used by Everett and his group to escape," Nicole explained.

"Could Aquila be involved?" Jared's voice was cool.

"It doesn't seem like it. Zane also finds it strange but hasn't found any evidence yet. All we can do now is wait and see if Doretta can contact him. That might reveal the truth," Nicole said.

"Hmm," Jared hummed. Since Doretta hadn't been exposed, they could expect to hear from her soon.

"Mrs. Johnston, do you think someone else is assisting from behind the scenes? If Aquila really had such an escape route, he would have used it much earlier with his people, not wait until now," Max speculated.

Nicole's expression grew somber, and she sighed and said, "That's what Zane is worried about too.”

She understood that if a new, hidden force was aiding Everett, the situation would only become more complicated.

"Are there any suspects?" Max inquired further.

"We don't have any leads at the moment, but..." Nicole's eyes flashed with a deep intensity, adding meaningfully, "there aren't many in San Joto who could assist Everett." "Should we start investigating then?" Max pressed.

Jared's calm voice interjected, "No rush. Let's wait for news. Doretta is likely to send a message to Zane soon." "But what if she doesn't?" Max sounded concerned.

"Then she's in danger," Jared's eyes narrowed slightly.

The sudden change of plans was unexpected, and Doretta would be aware of the urgent need for reliable information here. She would find a way to send a message. If she couldn't, it would mean that even if her cover wasn't blown, she was probably under suspicion and being monitored.

"Alright, I understand," Max acknowledged.

He found Jared's analysis sensible. Acting hastily might backfire, so waiting seemed the best approach for now.

Upon reaching the Riddle Corporation, the car came to a stop.

"I'm going up," Nicole said as she opened the door and stepped out.

After watching her enter the building, Jared turned to Max and instructed," Drive."

Max started the car and then asked softly, "Mr. Johnston, Zane took over the task of locating the leader of the Eastern Falcon. Is there still no clue?" "Zane mentioned it when he came over; they are initiating a rescue operation, but it's still unclear whether the rescue has been successful," Jared replied. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

He hadn't told Nicole about this yet, preferring to wait for concrete information before sharing it with her.

"If we can manage to rescue him, it would be a significant boost for US," Max said with a hint of excitement.
