Chapter 3183

After settling in, Nicole turned her attention to the document beside her, signaling that pivotal moments were on the horizon.

In BayCorp's office, Patricia hung up the phone and exchanged a knowing look with Ellar.

"I expect the results by this morning, as I requested yesterday," Ellar instructed his secretary, firm and expectant.

No sooner had Ellar spoken than Everett's voice filled the room, "You might as well give up now; the struggle is pointless."

Ellar's annoyance was palpable upon seeing Everett. "What are you doing back here? You're not welcome. We'll resolve this legally."

"You might want to see this first." Everett sauntered into Ellar's office and casually threw a pouch onto his desk.

Ellar, recognizing the seal Doretta had absconded with, pretended ignorance. "What is this?"

Everett looked down at him, his voice tinged with a slight pity, "Seems like you hurried to shift BayCorp's assets. Wouldn't you need this?"

"How... did you find out?" Ellar acted astonished.

"The how isn't what's important. What is, is what you decide to do now. Keep the company, or lose everything?" Everett's words carried a calm certainty, as if the outcome was already clear to him. Ellar's steadfastness seemed unlikely to Everett, especially now.

"Mr. Wright, you might want to reconsider your position," Patricia chimed in, her tone laced with caution.

"My position?" Everett let out a mocking chuckle, eyeing Patricia skeptically. Do you really think your plots can intimidate me anymore?"

"We'll see if it's a plot or not when you take the bait," Ell ar retorted, drawing Patricia closer to him defensively.

Everett gave Ellar an unimpressed look and said, "Fine."

Then, he picked up the bag, turned it upside down, and a bunch of seals fell onto the desk, making a loud noise. He thought Ellar would be shocked or angry, but Ellar looked surprisingly calm.

Everett was puzzled and thought, 'Is Ellar really this calm?'

"Everett Riddle, I knew what you were up to. You didn't think I'd be ready for you?" Ellar spoke up, being honest. "What do you mean?" Everett felt worried.

Ellar was really calm because he was ready for this moment.

"It means, don't bother with fake seals. They won't work," Ellar said casually.

"You think these are fake?" Everett felt hopeful, thinking Ellar was calm because he thought the seals were just fake.

"It's not a guess. I know they're fake because..." Ellar paused, then added, "I arranged for fakes to be made." Everett was shocked and asked, "What did you say?"

"I mean, the seals Doretta took were fakes I had made on purpose," Ellar explained, making it clear to Everett. "Sir!" Jerry couldn't help but react, thinking, 'Could they really be fake? Did

Ellar plan all this?'

Everett then understood he was outsmarted, especially since Ellar even mentioned his full name directly. Everett laughed, but his laugh sounded a bit sad.
