Chapter 361 Commence the Operation
Olivia froze, not responding for a long time. It seemed like she hadn’t expected Nicole to say something like that.
“Old Mr. Benedict and my mother go way back. There’s no way I’d look away and not save him because of you,”
Nicole said plainly while looking at Olivia, who appeared somewhat discomfited as she kneeled on the ground.
Olivia stood right up after hearing her words and asked quizzically with narrowed eyes, “Why didn’t you go to
Gardner Residence and instead have me come and beg you?!”
Nicole smirked and lifted a brow before she said bluntly, “That’s because I want to embarrass you and have you
come and beg me!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOlivia trembled and seethed with rage, but she knew she couldn’t lash out. Hence, she only stared at Nicole with a
blazing gaze for a long time.
Meanwhile, the latter snorted and said nothing more when she did not see Olivia getting riled up.
“I’ve now humiliated myself and also kneeled while begging you. I hope you can stick to your word and save my
father,” said Olivia as she looked at Nicole after collecting herself.
To that, Nicole held onto the door frame and said lazily, “Oh, I know what to do. There’s no need to bother yourself
with it.”
With that, she shut the door without even sparing Olivia a glance.
The woman was so livid that her eyes were ablaze, but all she could do now was pocket her anger, for there was
nothing she could do about Nicole at present.
Nicole, on the other hand, took a full day’s rest before finally going to Gardner Residence.
Performing surgery was also manual labor, after all. At the very least, she had to be well-rested before
commencing the operation.
To Nicole’s surprise, Pierre had come as well. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him with hints of
annoyance. She couldn’t bring herself to think good of this fiend at all.
Pierre was in a jovial mood and hurriedly stood up to approach Nicole when he saw her arrive. “I thought you
looked familiar, and I didn’t realize you’re actually Nicolson’s protégé. Pleased to make your acquaintance.”

With that, he reached his hand out for a handshake.
However, Nicole didn’t return the gesture nor say anything, only taking a gander at the extended palm.
Very quickly, awkwardness filled the air around them, and it was Anna who jumped in to relieve the situation in the
end.
“Nicole, Doctor Toth is worried that an accident might happen during your operation, so he has come to give you
offsite support. If anything happens, we’d be able to rectify it,” said Anna in a low voice. It was clear that they
disapproved of Nicole’s medical skills when it was put that way. Then again, this had to do with Benedict’s life.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnother layer of insurance meant a better success rate, so Anna had no reason to turn Pierre down when he
approached her.
Nicole knew what Anna was thinking when she saw how discomfited the woman looked, so she wasn’t upset. “I
understand, Mrs. Gardner.” Nicole nodded. “I’ll do my best, but I hope you can promise me that you won’t let
anyone come in mid-operation before I come out.”
This surgery was inevitably an arduous battle; even Nicole wasn’t completely confident about how long the surgery
would take. However, in case Pierre decided to badmouth her during the surgery, she thought it was best that she
took measures before going in.
At that moment, Colton stepped in before Anna could agree. “I’ll have the bodyguards surround Grandpa’s room
until you come out. No one will be able to enter in the meantime.”
His guarantee had reassured Nicole.
Though Olivia had yielded on the surface, she might still flip if Pierre’s bullsh*t got to her.
Once she made sure that everything was ready, Nicole took Julia into Benedict’s room.
The Gardners did not lack money, so all the medical equipment in Benedict’s room was state-of-the-art. Currently,
Benedict was lying motionlessly on the bed, for he had been given an anesthetic shot.
Nicole closed her eyes and tucked away all her nervousness, collecting herself. When she opened her eyes again,
they were filled with nothing but commitment.
