My Wife Act Differently Behind Me

Chapter 2733

Suddenly, he caught a fleeting glimpse of a knife hurtling toward Patricia, and in a flash, he lunged

toward the attacker who was holding it, and knocked it out of his hand.

Then, another one of the men grabbed Ellar's arm, prompting Patricia to give him a swift roundhouse

kick before pulling Ellar back to her side.

Patricia could instantly feel the pressure off her chest when Ellar was with her. Although Ellar knew

next to nothing about combat, his reaction times were quick. If anything, the two went on to coordinate

their defenses and hold their own without allowing their assailants to take advantage of their

positioning.

"Captain!" Patricia let out a sigh of relief when she heard a familiar voice.

Soon, two figures joined the fight, thus turning the tide against the men. The advantage even gave

Patricia and Ellar the opportunity to retreat from the scene.

"Are you okay?" Ellar asked, his eyes brimming with concern.

Patricia shook her head without uttering a word, her gaze fixed on the men in black as her brows

furrowed.

Once the assailants noticed that the tables had turned against them, they whistled, tossed a few gas

grenades on the ground, and fled as the wall of fog enveloped their surroundings. They were gone long

before the smoke dissipated.

With their attackers clean out of the scene, Ellar's bodyguards approached the duo. "Captain, how are

you holding up?"

"I'm fine. Let's talk back at the office."

Then, they made their way to BayCorp.

They were fortunate that the restaurant they had chosen to dine in was close to BayCorp, making their

immediate rescue possible. Had that not been the case, things would have taken a turn for the worst.

Back at BayCorp, Patricia instructed those two, "From now on, wherever he goes, you must stick to

him like glue."

In addition, they had made the mistake of letting their guard down. She had judged that the presence of

the two men was unnecessary since they were not straying too far from the company building to have

lunch. And unfortunately, the opponents had taken advantage of their blunder.

Her gaze darkened as she thought about the assailants. Then, she turned around, wanting to report

back to Nicole back in Riddle Corporation.

"Captain, treat your injuries before you return," one of Ellar's guards said.

"Where does it hurt?" Ellar immediately panicked as he wondered why he had not noticed it sooner.

"I'm fine.” Patricia replied.

She did not wish to take care of her wound here. All she wanted to do was to return to the

headquarters and report back to Nicole as soon as possible.

Seeing that she was adamant about leaving, Ellar pulled her back into the office, turned to his

secretary, and ordered," Bring the first aid kit."

Once she had brought the box to Ellar, he dismissed her.

"Give it to me. You may leave," Ellar said after grabbing the first aid kit.

"Of course." The secretary left the room.

"Come on. It's just a minor injury. Let's not make a big deal of this," Patricia stated out of unease as she

and Ellar were the only ones left in his office.

However, Ellar's gaze remained fixed on Patricia's arm." When did you get hurt?"

'Why didn't she tell me? I wouldn't have known if nobody had mentioned it. And when was she injured? Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

I have been by her side, but why didn't I notice it?' he wondered.

Patricia saw that he was staring at her wrist, so she pulled her sleeve down and said, "Give me the first

aid kit. I'll handle it myself."

Patricia figured that Ellar would not allow her to leave with her injuries unattended. Little did she expect

that there was a more caring, masculine side to him, as he usually came off as a young and immature

son from a wealthy family.

"Leave it to me." Ellar took a deep breath, deciding to treat her wound.

Then, he reached out, grabbed her sleeve, and pulled it back. To his horror, he heard the sound of

fabric being ripped apart at the very next second. As it turned out, he had pulled her sleeve back a little

too hard, and ended up tearing a large hole which almost reached her shoulder.

"Would you believe me if I say it was unintentional?" Ellar asked awkwardly.
