Chapter 301 Not Very Far Off

So, this is the very reason why Grandpa missed the surgery… which was his best shot at recovery.

Had everything gone the way it should have, his condition might not have deteriorated and the medication would

have prevented this.

However, these were all the ups and downs of life which no one could have predicted.

Nicole was at a loss for words. It was conservative of White to put out an eighty percent success rate at that time

as nothing was a guarantee in the medical field; even if it was a small operation, there would always be a chance of

death, not to mention that this was a brain surgery.

White’s eighty percent assurance of the operation was based on the fact that there would be no accidents during

the operation.

With Benedict’s current state, other than his increased age, his tumor had also deteriorated. If he was to go

through the surgery now, he would only have a fifty percent chance at best. However, this was his best odds at

survival.

“It’s okay, Grandpa. Don’t stress yourself over this. Take care of yourself and eat well. Perhaps you’ll feel better, ”

Nicole comforted him.

If it was not for him taking the initiative to bring this up, she would have never known that this was the same old

man back in the hospital.

The pain and suffering that he had experienced had changed him entirely.

However, the optimistic old man brushed it off and maintained a smile on his face. “Alright, alright. Let’s not talk

about these tragic things. Let’s talk about something happy.”

Nicole nodded eagerly. “Okay.”

“Oh, since you’ve had an affair with my grandson, why not marry into the family? That way, no one would trouble

you.”

Benedict rolled his eyes and looked at her with a smile.

“Forget about it, Grandpa. Nothing is going on between President Gardner and I. The only relationship between us is

just a superior and his subordinate. There is nothing more than that,” she answered as she began to distance

herself again.

Benedict understood this and sighed before continuing, “I’m not trying to boast, but my grandson is good-looking.

He also comes from a good family background. Although he is a bit cold, he is still a kind man. Are you not going to

consider him?”

Seeing how he was selling his grandson to her, Nicole could not help but laugh.

“Yes, yes, you’re right, Grandpa. President Gardner is amazing, but I’m not that bad myself.”

As for Benedict, he agreed with her.

“Indeed. You’ve managed to be the chief designer at such a young age. You’re fantastic! Although Colton is

competent and capable of bringing Gardner Corporation far, it is still all because of his family background. As for

you, you had nothing yet you’ve managed to go so far. It’s really amazing.”

The sudden praise she received caused her to be a little embarrassed. Without a doubt, she responded in modesty,

“You’re being too nice. I’ve slowly worked my way up. As for President Colton, it is admirable for him to handle such

a large corporation in such a meticulous manner.”

The old man’s eyes could not help but gleam when he heard her praising Colton.

Although Nicole had said things that Benedict did not want to hear, what she said now were honest words from the

bottom of her heart. This showed that she subconsciously had a good impression of Colton.

It seemed like the possibility of Nicole being Benedict’s granddaughter-in-law was not very far off.

He still had more than half a year of his life left. He would try to matchmake the two of them; perhaps it might

actually work out.

A delighted Benedict was gleeful with his own plan.

“Alright, now that we’re not strangers anymore, let’s forget about these pleasantries.” He stood up and stretched

his arms before tugging at the gray robe around his body to tidy it.

“I want you to stay for lunch with me today. I still have more to chat with you. Now that I’m old, I’m always

reminiscing about the past.”

Nicole did not refuse; instead, she nodded and agreed, “Of course, it’s been my absolute pleasure.”
