Chapter 295 White Nicholson’s Apprentice

The once spacious and empty room was now filled with all sorts of equipment and instruments. As soon as Nicole

entered the room, the strong and pungent smell of disinfectant shot up her nostrils.

This made her frown, as she was rather unaccustomed to this.

Benjamin, Anna, Wendy, Colton, and Olivia were all in the room.

When Olivia saw Nicole, her expression changed. She was just about to say something when Benjamin stopped her.

He signaled her with his eyes and after thinking about it, she held herself back.

The doctor had just come and explained that Benedict fell ill because he was provoked. At this critical moment, the

elderly man would not even be able to stand a minute of anger.

Nicole pursed her lips and looked at Benedict, who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and asked softly, “How

is Old Mr. Benedict now?”

Olivia immediately scrunched her face in dissatisfaction and answered sarcastically, “Why do you care about how

he is? What, are you a doctor? Can you treat him?”

In the face of her sarcasm, Nicole endured it with a slight smile on her face. “No, I’m just concerned about him.”

Just as Olivia was about to retaliate, Benjamin stopped her as he turned to Nicole and said, “Old Mr. Benedict is fine

now. The doctor said he should take a good rest.”

Hearing this, Nicole nodded. Since she had only meant to come and take a look, she had no intention to stay any

longer after knowing that Benedict was okay.

“Since Old Mr. Benedict is fine, I won’t stay much longer. I’ll bring Hayden over once Old Mr. Benedict feels better.”

Nicole stepped backward as she spoke.

When Colton saw this, he strode over next to her and said, “I’ll see you off.”

She did not refuse and walked out with him side by side.

The air seemed lighter after they left the room. The pungent smell of disinfectant back there made Nicole feel a

little out of breath.

As soon as she caught a whiff of that familiar smell, she immediately thought of her mentor.

“Do you not like the smell of disinfectant?” Colton seemed to have picked up on her cues.

This made Nicole pursed her lips again as she lowered her gaze, casually explaining, “My mother passed away on a

hospital bed. That’s why I’m a little uncomfortable.”

Hearing this, he nodded understandingly and continued in a hoarse voice, “Grandpa is just angry because of what

Aunt said. It’s nothing serious.”

“I see. I ran into Julia on my way in. I’ve asked her about it,” Nicole said.

“Julia Halls?” Colton was slightly puzzled. He probably didn’t think that she would know who Julia was.

However, Nicole nodded. “Yup.”

Colton had a faint smile on his face as he continued casually, “Grandpa’s time is running out, and there’s no one

capable of going through with the operation. He probably has about half a year to live, at most.”

Hearing this, Nicole felt her heart skip a beat. She didn’t understand why Colton brought this up to her. After

thinking about it, she said, “There are so many good doctors in the world. With the Gardners’ power, it shouldn’t be

hard to find one.”

Upon hearing that, Colton only replied, “It’s not hard, but none of them dares to operate on the old man. After all,

there is only a 10% chance of survival, and none of them want to offend the Gardner Family.”

Nicole did not speak as she quietly listened to Colton talk.

“Actually, there is someone that could help. If she would operate on Grandpa, there may be a glimmer of hope,” he

continued.

This made Nicole’s eyes twitch involuntarily as she spat out the question without thinking, “Who?”

“White Nicholson’s apprentice,” he answered bluntly.

Then, he continued to explain, “White is a world-renowned surgeon. In her early years, she took in an apprentice

and taught her apprentice everything she had learned throughout her life. Now that White is gone, Grandpa’s last

hope rests on her apprentice.”
