Chapter 2791

While they were in the hospital room, Ellar helplessly muttered, "Actually, you don't need to stay. You should go

home and get some rest."

"Just go to sleep if you've got nothing else on your mind. I can get my rest anywhere and anytime." Patricia up to

the couch, pulled a blanket over herself, and laid down.

"Let me know if you need anything," she said as she looked at him.

"Okay." Ellar sighed in defeat after returning Patricia's gaze.

He was looking at the couch where Patricia was, shaking his head before laying down as well.

Though Patricia had stayed to take care of him on her own volition, he truly hoped that she would just leave and get

some sleep back in the comforts of her own home.

However, it was evident at this point that Patricia would not listen to him; she would stay and accompany him

through the night.

'Forget it. I'm just going to keep quiet so that she can get some shuteye,' he thought.

What he did not know was that Patricia was not able to sleep. Though she looked like she was already fast asleep on

the couch, her mind was in a swirling vortex. All she could think of was the moment when she turned around to see

Ellar shielding her from the blow she had failed to anticipate, followed by the image of blood gushing out of his arm

after the slash had connected.

That was the moment that had shocked her to the very core. To her, Ellar had always been a vulnerable target in

need of protection, much like a helpless, younger brother to Nicole. That was why she had never thought that he

would step forward to shield her.

There was also a strange and indescribable feeling stirring within her, but no matter what she did to process her

emotions, the confusion only seemed to be mounting.

Meanwhile, Nicole and Jared were already on their way home.

"Mr. Johnston. The incident was likely perpetrated by the Eastern Falcon organization," Max said.

"But have we caught anyone yet?" Jared asked coldly.

"Not yet, but Charlie is already on it." Max hesitated for a moment. "Perhaps the guy we've previously apprehended

was just a foot soldier. The other possibility is that they have deployed new members for their latest assault."

If neither was the case, capturing one of their men should have dealt a massive blow to them. Realistically, it would

be impossible for them to switch tactics and targets in such a short span of time just because Ellar was found to be

well guarded. It would have taken them a fair bit of prep time to have done so.

"That's possible." Nicole's eyes darkened. 'Their analysis makes sense when you put it that way.'

After a brief moment of hesitation, Nicole softly said, "It seems that we'll have to expedite our operations with

Zane."

"Has there been no news from Zane recently?" Max asked.

With a frown, Nicole softly muttered, "Nope. Everything seems a little too quiet on his end as well."

And after careful consideration, Nicole took her phone out and called Zane.

'Hey. I'm sorry to bother you at this hour, but something happened on my end," Nicole said, going straight to the

point.

"It's okay. I'm not hitting the sack yet. Go ahead and tell me about it," Zane replied.

He knew that Nicole would not be calling at this time of the night if she did not have anything important to tell him.

Then, Nicole went on to describe the assault on them that had occurred today.

After hearing her account of the events that had transpired, Zane remained silent for a moment.

"We've not noticed any movements from Everett recently. It's as if he has disappeared. I wonder what he's up to,”

Zane said once the delay was over.

"So, you suspect that this incident might be connected to Everett?" Nicole’s eyes narrowed.

About a week ago, Patricia had tasked someone to tail Damien, and there, they discovered that he had been

getting himself involved in mysterious dealings with someone on a daily basis, someone seemingly related to the

organization, Eastern Falcon.

However, Damien himself did not have any means of contacting them, so there was only one possibility-Everett had

entered the picture.

And now, Everett seemed to have disappeared again, an act which further supported their theory of what was

going on.

"We can't be sure now. It just seems too coincidental," Zane added.

"Yeah, it does seem suspicious." Nicole said, feeling that Zane's speculation made sense as well.

"In that case, we'll continue to track Everett. You need to be more vigilant in San Joto. If you're short on manpower,

I can send more of our members over," Zane stated, showing his concern for Nicole's situation.
