Chapter 2040
After a while, Martin looked at Nicole and said, "You tried to treat yourself."
"I've seen some doctors and I've tried to do it myself too."
Even though she had no idea how she knew about medicine, she was very well aware that she had some
capabilities in that field.
"Even Ghost Hand could not cure this. It is indeed difficult to deal with. I've recorded your condition and I'll start
studying it later," Martin replied, not sounding very surprised by his inability to cure Nicole.
He had already expected this when Jared informed him about Nicole's condition, but he agreed to help her out
anyway. Perhaps he believed that he would eventually find a solution by working together with Nicole.
After all, he had high hopes in Nicole's capabilities as Ghost Hand, along with the knowledge he had gathered from
working in the field for so many years.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Sure," Nicole said without hesitating.
Even though she could not remember who Martin was, she still trusted Jared. The Riddle family had hidden Nicole's
incident of memory loss from everyone else except a few close friends. The fact that Jared had sought Martin's help
indicated that Martin could be depended on, and that he would not do anything to hurt her.
As they stood up and left, Martin walked them to the door. He was about to say something to Nicole but then, he
felt as if he just could not get a word out of his mouth.
So, he gave up the idea and thought to himself, 'Getting to see her again is good enough, I guess.'
After Nicole and Jared had disappeared from his sight, he issued a sigh and retired into the mansion.
Once he was back inside, he leaned back on the couch and read Nicole's examination report again. Then, he
furrowed his brow because her condition was indeed very complicated to deal with.
Closing the report abruptly, he stood up and went to the study room upstairs. After that, he rummaged through the
huge bookshelf in the room and began to peruse a few of the ancient medical archives, hoping to find a solution to
aid Nicole.
On the other side, Jared was already on the road with Nicole.
"What's Ghost Hand?" Nicole finally asked.
She became curious about it when Martin brought it up moments ago, but she had tried her best not to ask. Now
she had the opportunity to do so.
"Your medical skills were considered to be among the best in the world," Jared replied truthfully before proceeding
to tell her that she was once the apprentice of James Dade, a world-renowned doctor.
This left Nicole in a state of shock. 'Was I really that good?'
After she had lost her memories, she could only remember tiny bits of her medical knowledge, but she had no idea
how she had obtained them. She did not expect that she had such a prominent mentor either.
"Why didn't we call him? Perhaps he could help me." Nicole stated, her eyes sparkling with a glimmer of hope.
Jared looked at Nicole with a wry face. "He has retired, and I'm afraid that you're the only person who can reach
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhim."
Of course, he was referring to the old Nicole who had not lost her memories. Nicole did not even remember who
James Dade was, let alone know how to reach him.
The light on Nicole's face faded as a sense of helplessness flooded her. She had no memories of James at all. The
hope that had just been built up was completely torn down in an instant. She was devastated.
"It's fine. Your medical skills are still with you even though you can't remember him. I'm sure that you can work
something out with Martin's help," Jared encouraged.
Besides, they were in no rush to regain her memories, and because of that, they could just go with the flow.
Soon after, the car came to a halt.
Nicole looked out of the window and saw a restaurant.
There, she could not help but blink in confusion. 'Aren't we going home? Why are we here?'
"Everyone at home would already be done with dinner by the
time we get back. Besides, they'd be suspicious if we were to go home with empty stomachs," Jared explained to
Nicole, as if he could read her thoughts.
Then, he brought her out of the car.
