My Wife is a Hacker

Chapter 3043

Following Patricia's lead, the group dispersed, with a few genuinely departing while two covertly

shadowed Patricia, tracking the elusive figures.

"Captain, do you think those could be Everett's men?" one of them quietly conjectured.

Patricia let out a derisive snort. "Only one way to find out-follow them."

At this juncture, Everett was the prime suspect in their minds.

Mid-conversation, Patricia's phone buzzed. Casting a quick glance at the screen, she promptly ended

the call.

"Captain, should we proceed? We'll keep you in the loop," another team member offered, ready to

spring into action.

Patricia hesitated briefly before deciding, "No, let's stick together."

The call she'd ignored was from Martin, likely wondering why she hadn't shown up at his lab yet. She

deemed it inappropriate to delve into explanations then and there, planning to address it later.

Upon Patricia's arrival at the lab, it was evident Martin and Cindy were growing restless.

Spotting Patricia, Cindy expressed her concern, "Any difficulties on your way here?" "Just tying up

some loose ends at work," Patricia answered, deliberately vague.

Martin eyed Patricia with a hint of concern, "You know, you ought to be taking it easier these days."

Martin was aware that Patricia's reference to 'work' wasn't merely her day- to-day duties at Riddle

Corporation; it hinted at something more covert, likely a mission. However, with Cindy in the room,

details couldn't be openly discussed.

Patricia caught Martin's look and reassured him, "Don't worry, I'm handling it."

Seeing Patricia's assurance, Martin didn't press the issue, instead helping her get settled for her

treatment.

After examining Patricia, Martin noted, "The injury on your face has improved significantly. I expect it

will be fully healed soon."

Patricia responded with gratitude, "Thank you, Dr. Wyance."

Martin inwardly sighed, acknowledging Patricia's resilience, "It's also thanks to your own effort. Not

everyone can endure the hardships you have, to bear such burdens."

Patricia bit her lip slightly, her thoughts heavy with the realization that Ellar had borne the greatest pain

for her.

"Here, drink some water," Cindy offered, handing a cup of water to Patricia.

"Thank you,” Patricia said, accepting the cup and taking a slow sip.

Martin advised Patricia, "Although you look better now, don't push yourself too hard. You need to rest."

"Yes, I understand," Patricia replied softly.

"Alright, it's time for you to head back." "Okay." Patricia got up and left the lab.

"She doesn't seem as comfortable as Ellar might hope," Cindy sighed.

"We shouldn't get involved in their personal issues," Martin remarked thoughtfully, his thoughts adding,

'Patricia and Ellar’s situation is for them to resolve.' "So, they have their issues... What about US?"

Cindy turned to Martin, her eyes searching his, hinting at a deeper conversation about their own

relationship.

"Let's call it a day," Martin deflected, looking away. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Cindy, not willing to let the moment pass again, stepped in front of Martin, her gaze intense. "Martin,

you know that's not what I'm asking about."

With a sigh, Martin began, "Cindy, after all this time, you understand that we..." "Stop," Cindy cut him

off quickly. Pausing to collect her thoughts, she finally said, "I'm heading off now."
