Chapter 3076
Giving Lulu a quick glance, Nicole answered the phone, “Hello, Ellar." "Nicole, we've got a problem,' Ellar's voice came through
urgently.
'What's going on?" Nicole's heart raced a bit, sensing trouble.
"Some of BayCorp's partners are claiming we misled them and want to end our contracts, demanding compensation," Ellar
explained, his tone filled with worry.
"Try to calm them down for now. I'll send Patricia to help you soon," Nicole reassured him before ending the call.
Turning to Lulu, Nicole's expression darkened. "Is there trouble with DillCorp?"
"How did you know?" Lulu looked surprised; she hadn't mentioned it yet.
"Ellar's facing a similar issue. I'll send Patricia to assist him," Nicole explained, then used the intercom to call, "Patricia, head to
Eliar's office; he needs help."
'Got it," Patricia replied promptly.
"If needed, let them know that Riddle Corporation fully backs BayCorp, no questions asked. If they don't trust Riddle, they should
trust the prominent families behind the five Crests," Nicole asserted, her voice carrying authority.
"Understood," Patricia responded, her tone firm.
After ending the call, Nicole sighed. "Now, what's going on with DillCorp?'
If Ellar hadn't called, she might not have linked the dots to DillCorp's issues.
"Everett's behind this, hitting both DillCorp and BayCorp to stretch US thin," Nicole concluded, connecting the dots.
'The situation at DillCorp isn't dire, but it's hurting your reputation. We need to fix it fast," Lulu said, her voice tense. "Someone's
spreading rumors online, saying you took over DillCorp illegally, leaving your uncle and his wife broke, just hanging out at your
grandpa's place."
'That's it?" Nicole was a bit surprised. It seemed like a petty move for Everett.
"It's not just that," Lulu said, clearly annoyed. "There are problems at NandoCorp too."
"Oh," Nicole's face showed understanding. She hadn't expected NandoCorp to be affected as well. But she knew if Everett was
making a move, it had to be big.
"At NandoCorp, some regulators are investigating trademark rights. It seems Everett registered a trademark in his name during
his time, and now he's suing US for using it,' Lulu explained, clearly frustrated.
They hadn't known about this issue; if they had, they wouldn't have used a trademark registered to Everett. It was infuriating to
think about.
"With NandoCorp, DillCorp, and BayCorp all facing problems at once, is Everett trying to take me down directly?" Nicole's eyes
glinted with anger, seeing through Everett's simplistic plan.
"Do you have a plan?" Lulu asked cautiously.
"For the online stuff, let's leave it to the PR department," Nicole said, standing up. "We'll go to NandoCorp and see what's going
on." She needed to understand the situation before taking action.
"Okay." After sorting out her work, Lulu followed Nicole out of the headquarters toward NandoCorp.
Meanwhile, Patricia reached BayCorp.
'Ms. Riddle sent me to assist you," she said plainly as she stepped into Ellar's office.
"Alright," Ellar replied, trying to stay calm despite his excitement.
'Can you explain everything that's happened?" Patricia asked.
After Ell ar explained the situation, Patricia said, "Get me the documents from the companies involved."
