Chapter 334 Gardner Residence

Without waiting for Whitney to react, Nicole turned and left in a hurry once she finished saying that.

 

 

In the meantime, there were two people sitting in a private room of a high-end cafe.

These two were none other than Tony and Colton. After glancing carefully at the man who sat by the window with

his head resting on his hand, Tony retracted his gaze and stared at his phone.

While staring at his phone, he asked, “President Gardner, Miss Nicole Anderson has called you 3 times. Are you sure

that you’re not going to answer her call?”

After Tony asked that, he thought, Not only did he not answer his phone, he also prohibited me from answering

mine.

Hearing Tony’s question caused Colton to retract his gaze from the window. Then, he looked at the screen of the

phone he placed on the table with an idle demeanor. Showing a meaningful smile, he said decisively, “No, I’m not

answering.”

As Tony looked at Colton’s confident look, he couldn’t help but feel strange. President Colton’s behavior is rather

odd today. For some unknown reason, he actually instructed me to tell Whitney that we’re going to have an

important meeting outside of the office. But as his assistant, more specifically, his top-notch assistant, how could

there be any meetings that I’m not aware of?

Thinking that I might have missed out on some important orders, I simply let him drag me out of the office building,

but I didn’t expect that he would directly drag me out only to spend our time sitting in this cafe.

 

 

What’s more, we’ve been sitting here for 3 hours or so, and we even drank 3 cups of coffee. Since I have no idea

what President Gardner has up his sleeves, I can only accompany him here in this cafe.

A curious Tony asked under his breath, “President Gardner, how about you utter something and tell me what’s on

your mind? Or at least tell me the reason why we’re here in this cafe.”

At the sound of Tony’s voice, Colton simply glanced at him lightly. Nevertheless, he didn’t intend to hide from his

assistant. “My grandpa is critically ill.”

Tony nodded upon hearing that. I know about this matter. According to the doctor, the brain tumor was pressing

against Old Mr. Benedict’s cranial nerves. Furthermore, taking his age into consideration, the success rate of the

surgery is exceptionally low.

Even after receiving Colton’s answer, Tony was still puzzled. Therefore, he asked again, “But what does that have to

do with you being here?”

Giving him a look as if saying that he’s an idiot, Colton then retracted his gaze and said coldly, “Nicole is White’s

protégé.”

 

Akin to being the recipient of a bombshell, Tony was stupefied for a long time before he could slowly comprehend

the shocking piece of information. Feeling rather inconceivable, his eyes widened as he asked, “President Gardner,

are you saying that Miss Nicole Anderson is White’s protégé?”

In truth, similar to Troy’s reaction, Colton didn’t know about this at first. It wasn’t until later when he noticed Nicole

and Julia’s close relationship, Julia’s full knowledge about Benedict’s condition, and retrieved a lot of information

about it that he faintly realized something was wrong.

With that in mind, he then determined to get to the bottom of the matter. After investigating for a while, he was

able to identify some clues. Through the clues he identified, he discovered that Nicole had left traces in the hospital

where White stayed before. Therefore, he blindly guessed that Nicole was White’s protégé.

“We’ll find out after today.” Colton smiled confidently.

He already knew that Queenie went to look for Olivia. Knowing Olivia’s temper, he strongly believed that she would

surely bring Pierre and Queenie over to the Gardner Residence.

Since Benjamin wasn’t home, Anna alone would not be able to stop Olivia’s hotheadedness. Keeping that in mind,

Colton knew he had to look for someone to stop Olivia, and that someone was Nicole. Therefore, he had already

informed Wendy to call Nicole and explain the matter clearly to her if something ever happened at home.

Once Nicole learned about what happened, she would come to him. When she couldn’t find him, she would

certainly head to the Gardner Residence.

Just as Colton had predicted, Nicole was indeed rushing to the Gardner Residence. As soon as she entered the door,

she heard a burst of a heated argument.

“Anna! You’re not a child born of the Gardner Family. Are you wishing that Dad would meet his deathbed? Let me

tell you: the doctor I had invited this time said he has at least 50% confidence that he’ll succeed in the surgery. Why

do you have to stop me?! What kind of vicious intentions do you have?!” Olivia lashed out at Anna.

Even though Olivia drove her up the wall, Anna still pulled her and halted her in her tracks. “Colton has already

gone to seek White’s protégé. Dad’s illness will be saved if he successfully finds her.”

After hearing Anna’s words, Pierre chuckled softly, “Mrs. Gardner, you can let me in to check on Old Mr. Benedict’s

condition first even if you don’t believe in my medical expertise.

And even if I’m not performing the surgery, I can still give you an analysis of his condition. Frankly speaking, White’s

protégé may not have medical expertise like mine.”

Listening to the glib man in front of her, she felt uneasy. In fact, the words that escaped the man’s lips earlier alone

were enough to let Anna have her guard up against him.
