"What?" Patricia turned back, puzzled by his sudden call.
"If you feel not okay and hesitant to call me, just ring up Charlie instead," Ellar suggested, then hit the
gas and drove away.
Patricia stood there for a moment, mulling over his words. Without having promised to contact Ellar, he
seemed to assume it could be inconvenient for her and recommended reaching out to Charlie instead.
As Ellar’s car disappeared into the distance, a hint of sadness flickered in Patricia's eyes. She thought,
'I can imagine how difficult it must have been for him to say that.' "He's gone. Come on, let's head
back," Charlie's voice came from behind, making Patricia jump. She turned to him, asking, "When did
you come down?" "Just now," Charlie sighed, "Maybe you should think about leaving this job." "I don't
want to retire," Patricia said, biting her lip.
Charlie patted her shoulder, "Mr. Johnston has already agreed; this decision won't change." "But-"
Patricia started to argue, only to be interrupted by Charlie, "I understand your thoughts, but I also feel
that your happiness is my happiness."
They had been there for each other since childhood. Patricia had once promised to stick with him for
life, but Charlie knew those were just innocent pledges. If she could go back to a regular life, that was
what he hoped for her.
"Some things are just the way they are, and we have to accept that. But if there's a chance to make a
change, I hope you make the right choice," Charlie added.
He used to believe that having Patricia by his side was safer and comforting, but now things had
changed. She had the opportunity to begin anew."Charlie, I'm scared," Patricia's eyes welled up with tears.
Fear of losing Charlie, akin to losing her parents, gripped her.
"Silly girl," Charlie said affectionately, ruffling Patricia's hair, "I'll make sure to take care of myself too."
Patricia smiled and headed upstairs with Charlie, oblivious to the fact that Ellar hadn't departed.
Instead, he had parked his car around the corner of the street.
Observing Charlie and Patricia, Ellar sensed a twinge of bitterness in his heart.
After a deep breath, Ellar started the car and drove away, reassuring himself that as long as Patricia
was happy, it was fine for her to be with Charlie.
Three days later, everything appeared to have settled back into routine.
Nicole, as usual, came to the company.
As Nicole settled into her office, Lulu entered with some documents, her expression somewhat grave.
"Just as you expected," she said.
"What happened?" Nicole asked, frowning.
"Check this out," Lulu handed the papers to Nicole. "The deal we've been slaving over just imploded."
"Is Everett behind this?" Nicole asked, grasping the situation as she accepted the papers.
"Yeah, it was him," Lulu exhaled heavily.
Nicole perused the documents before looking up at Lulu. "Got it," she remarked.novelbin"That's all? Seriously?" Lulu's brow furrowed in confusion at Nicole's response. " Aren't we going to
take action?"
Nicole remained calm. "With the opportunity gone, there's no point in fretting over what's pointless,"
she commented, setting aside the papers." Time to scout for new avenues." "New avenues?" Lulu
echoed, a trace of bewilderment in her voice.
Nicole clarified, "I'm committed to seeing this project through. If this partnership has hit a dead end,
we'll simply find another collaborator."
Lulu nodded, the realization dawning on her. They had been mapping out this project for ages, and
though their initial choice of a partner had just crumbled, as Nicole pointed out, they still had the option
to seek alternative alliances.
"Got it," Lulu affirmed, geared up to initiate the hunt for a fresh collaboration.
