My Wife is a Hacker

Chapter 3102

"Treat this place like your own home, and don't hesitate to make yourself comfortable," Emma

comforted Doretta.

"Got it. Thank you, Aunt Emma," Doretta responded with a smile.

"If you're feeling tired after your journey, feel free to rest," Emma said, her concern evident.

"In that case, I'll leave you guys to enjoy your meal. I'll head back to my room," Doretta said as she

stood up.

"Of course, take your time," Emma said, her satisfaction with Doretta evident as her smile widened.

After Doretta left, Dexter quietly cautioned Emma, "Don't set your expectations too high." His advice

was meant to temper any potential disappointment.

"You're not exactly helping by being so pessimistic," Emma replied, clearly unhappy with Dexter's

comment.

"I'm just reminding you, some things can't be forced. You don't want it to backfire," Dexter explained.

Emma rolled her eyes at Dexter. "I know. Even if I think Doretta is a good match, we still have to

respect what Ellar wants."

Dexter felt somewhat relieved. When it came to setting someone up, it was important to consider their

feelings.

He didn't want to put Ellar in a difficult position. If Ellar and Doretta happened to develop feelings for

each other, he wouldn't oppose it. However, if they weren't interested, there was no need to force

anything, and it would be best if everyone accepted it.

The following day, a gentle breeze filled the air as Ellar arrived at the Riddle Corporation early in the

morning.

"Wow, you're here early. Is everything okay?" Nicole asked, a hint of surprise in her voice.

"It's nothing urgent. I just didn't feel like staying home, so I thought I'd stop by before heading to

BayCorp," Ellar replied.

Noticing Ellar's frustrated expression, Nicole couldn't help but tease, "Why? Feeling pressured to get Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

married again?"

"Ugh, it's even worse than that," Ellar sighed, clearly troubled, as he shared Doretta's situation with

Nicole.

"A distant cousin?" Nicole asked, puzzled.

"I suppose so," Ellar shrugged. "But it doesn't really matter now. She's already here and has moved

into my house."

Nicole frowned slightly. "Hmm... You mentioned she's looking for a job, right?"

"Yeah, but the way my mom's acting, I don't think she'll let Doretta move out even if she finds a job,"

Ellar grimaced.

Though his parents hadn't said it outright, the look in his mother's eyes and her attitude made it seem

like they were already treating Doretta as a future daughter-in-law.

Ellar's only comfort was that his parents still had some sense left, or else he wouldn't even be able to

go back home.

"In that case, you'll just have to look after yourself," Nicole shrugged, indicating there was little she

could do to help.

Ellar chuckled bitterly. "I'll just bury myself in work."

With no better ideas, he could only silently protest, perhaps claim he was too busy with work and make

excuses to stay away from home as much as possible.

Trying to lighten the mood, Nicole changed the subject. "So, what did you want to talk to me about?"

Ellar slapped his forehead. "I almost forgot the actual reason I came."

"Let me show you something." Ellar handed a small packet to Nicole.

Ellar chuckled bitterly. "I'll just bury myself in work."

"Let me show you something." Ellar handed a small packet to Nicole.

After Nicole opened it and examined a small sample on her fingertip, her complexion turned pale.

"Phosphate rock powder!"

"Yes, someone left it in my company," Ellar said, his expression turning serious.

Fortunately, someone was vigilant enough to discover the culprit's intention: They wanted to burn down

his company.
