Chapter 314 Lost Control
Since I can’t perform the surgery for Old Mr. Benedict, perhaps I can find other doctors. I met many skilled and
talented doctors while training as White’s apprentice, Nicole thought. Unfortunately, she had rarely contacted any
of the senior doctors since White left, but she could still ask around for Benedict’s sake.
Benedict let out a wide grin after he heard Nicole’s firm answer. “If what you say is true, then, of course, I’d be
willing to have the surgery.”
Nicole smiled. His illness was getting increasingly severe—he was even showing signs of dementia. She was afraid
that it would really be the end of him if he didn’t receive treatment soon.
They both continued chatting for a few hours and she managed to cheer him up as they spoke.

Soon enough, Benedict could no longer fight off the sleepiness, and started yawning a few times. Nicole used this as
an excuse to leave the room. Unfortunately, she found Colton standing outside the door when she walked out.
She froze for a moment before she shut the door and turned to look at Colton. “Grandpa said that he was sleepy
and wanted to nap, so I figured that I wouldn’t disturb him any longer.”
Colton grunted in response. They walked side-by-side along the corridor for a while before he questioned her. “Are
you serious when you say that my grandfather’s surgery has a 50% chance of success?”
Nicole would have never expected Colton to be the sort of person who would eavesdrop on someone else’s
conversation! But since he had heard what she said, she decided there was no point hiding it. “Yeah. I met a few
skilled surgeons when I was abroad, so I can ask them if they could help Old Mr. Benedict,” she replied.
He smirked. “You mentioned that there was a doctor who claimed that there was a 50% chance of success in a
patient whose condition was worse than my grandfather’s. Can I know who this doctor is?”
She pressed her lips together and lowered her gaze before mumbling her reply. “White.”
Colton had sharp ears, so he heard her words the first time. “Do you know White personally?”
“Yeah. I met him twice while I was at the hospital.” Nicole was worried that Colton would realize something, so she
hastily explained the situation. “I didn’t feel too well after giving birth to Hayden, so I was a regular at the hospital
back then. That was how I met White,” she said.
He didn’t say much after that, and he simply lowered his gaze thoughtfully. After she hesitated for a moment, she
posed him a question. “How has Old Mr. Benedict’s memory deteriorated so much overnight?”
“Grandpa’s tumor grew bigger, and it’s pressing against his nerves. Furthermore, he lost his temper a few days
ago, and the doctor said that he’s showing signs of memory loss because the tumor is affecting his nerves,” Colton
explained. Nicole felt tears welling up in her eyes for a moment, and she was at a loss for words.
Old Mr. Benedict must be thinking about my mother even with all the confusion in his head, so that means he must
really miss her a lot. He truly treated my mother as his own.
After Madeline got married to William, her parents died in an accident. He took all of her inheritance and built the

—Madeline was the one who suffered the most.
While they were in the hospital, she would often nag Benedict; maybe it was because she had already treated
Benedict as her father.
Colton halted his footsteps when he realized the tears forming in Nicole’s eyes. He reached his hands out to touch
the skin around her eyes as her silent tears trickled down her cheeks.
His warm fingers trembled as he brushed her tears off. “Alright. Stop crying. It’s not a big deal,” he murmured
gently while gazing at her teary face.
Perhaps it was because she was thinking of her mother, or maybe it was because she knew that Benedict wasn’t
going to live for long—either way, Nicole lost her grip on her emotions as she sobbed.
