Chapter 188 Niki’s proud boast
After saying those words, Dr. Meid looked at Niki and said, “Miss. Linch, hope you can get the Spears Family’s Secret Medicine. Good luck!”
Niki looked away to avoid Dr. Meid’s gaze as the trust in his eyes was so burning.
She had never been in such an embarrassing situation.
Julian noticed Niki’s nervousness, saying, “what’s the matter, Niki? Could you get the
Secret Medicine?”
Julian had mixed feelings of expectationand uncertainty.
Niki’s mouth moved slightly, but she didn’t say anything.
She indeed wanted to take this opportunity to win the favor of the Graham Family, but it was extremely difficult to get the Secret Medicine.
If it were an ordinary medicine from the Spears Family, she would definitely give it to Julian without even blinking her eyes. But this time, her generosity was gone.
Standing aside, Natalie kept silent, her placid gaze fell on Niki.
Niki noticed Natalie’s view.
Niki squinted a little, that was the look again! What she hated the most was the look on
Natalie’s face at the moment.
Natalie was always poker-faced like this as if she cared for nothing, she was a detached angel descending from paradise… So disgusting!
She was nothing but an orphan! What made Natalie look at her like this?! It was just some sort of lucky break that she became Dr. Nancy’s assistant!
Natalie also noticed Niki’s gaze, and somehow, she saw a hint of inexplicable emotions
in her eyes.
Before she said something, Niki plucked up the courage and opened her mouth, “I can
get the Secret Medicine. Don’t you worry, Julian.”
“I’ll give the medicine to you and then use it to cure Grandpa. He’ll get through it, I
promise!”
The statement was decisive, without even the slightest hesitation in it, as if she held a high position in the Spears Family.
Natalie raised her eyebrow and stared at Niki with great interest.
How could Niki promise so readily? Could she really get the Secret Medicine?
As far as she knew, the Secret Medicine had always been kept by her mother. Was it possible that Niki had a secret connection with her mother since she was so confident in
getting it?
Thinking of this, Natalie’ looked Niki over with a hint of amusement and exploration in
her eyes. She felt something was wrong.
Before she married Julian, she had never heard of Niki from her mother. How could that
be if Niki was really on good terms with her mother?
But she didn’t think Niki dared to boast about such things.
Natalie was a bit confused.
“Okay,” Julian felt quite satisfied with Niki’s words, an imperceptible smile appeared on
his face.
“Do you want me to accompany you to the Spears Family?” said Julian, “I don’t want you
to go there alone.”
Niki waved her hand repeatedly, “no need, Julian, I’m on it.”
“Grandpa is still in the hospital. You’d better take care of him by his side, “Niki put on a
very thoughtful air. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Julian lowered his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then nodded, “that’s fine.”
“But I have to send a driver to take you there,” said he firmly.
Niki knew it was inappropriate to refuse Julian’s kindness repeatedly, so she nodded with a smile and said, “okay, sitting in your car is like you’re accompanying me.”
Niki’s flirtatious conversation embarrassed Natalie, she turned around and left.
Since Niki said she could get the Secret Medicinal, then there was no need for her to stay
there.
Seeing Natalie was about to leave, Dr. Meld opened his mouth and wanted to ask if he
had ever seen her.
But before he could do so, a hand rested on his shoulder and Julian’s voice came from behind, “please take good care of my grandpa, thank you so much, Dr. Meid.”
Dr. Maid had to take back his steps, saying, “don’t you worry, I would carry out my duty
well.”
Julian nodded. Then Joey walked behind him, whispering in his ear, which made his face
change dramatically.
Julian nodded to Dr. Meid with an apologetic expression and spoke, “excuse me, something came up in Graham Group. I’ve got to leave now.”
“It’s okay. Business matters. I understand it,” Dr. Meid said.
Julian turned around and strode away.
Unlike before, Niki did not follow him closely. She paused, apparently lost in thought.
Just then, a light bulb went on in her head.
She had a way out!
Seeing that Dr. Meid was checking Mr. Graham’s condition, she gestured toward Dr. Smith who was standing in front of the bed.
Dr. Smith got her meaning and nodded.
In a secluded alley outside the hospital, Niki stood on the steps, looking down at Dr. Smith, who was standing at the foot of the steps.
“How many doses did
you give Mr. Graham?”
Upon hearing her question, Dr. Smith thought that Niki was going to blame him. He hurried to lower his head and spoke nervously “I did everything you said, Miss. Linch.”
Dr. Smith stood there, too
hogy to utter a word, Seeing this, Niki’s tone softened a little.
“No need to be so nervous, it’s just a casual question.”
Hearing this, the big stone resting on Dr. Smith’s heart finally disappeared.
“Then what are you calling me for, Miss. Linch?” Dr. Smith asked tentatively.
A hint of shrewdness flashed across Niki’s eyes. She leaned closer to Dr. Smith, saying, “do you have an antidote for the medicine you used?”
“What?” Dr. Smith was stunned by the question, “well, antidote…”
“Yeah,” Niki’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
If there was an antidote, then she didn’t have to get the secret Medicine to cure Mr.
Graham.
It was just giving him another chance to live.
Besides, it was not a waste of effort; Niki rolled her eyes.
At least it would made Natalie’s impression worse in Julian’s eyes and it wouldn’t
recover in the short term.
“Well…” Dr. Smith scratched his head.
Seeing his hesitation, Niki’s face turned sour, “don’t you have any antidote?”
Dr. Smith nodded stiffly, “I didn’t expect that you would choose to save Mr. Graham
again, so I didn’t consider…”
“What’s more, this poison is powerful, no one can develop an antidote…” Dr. Smith
stammered.
He dared not look up at Niki.
“You idiot!” Dr. Smith’s words ignited Niki’s anger. She reached out her foot and kicked
Dr. Smith’s knee with her high heels.
Dr. Smith felt a sharp pain in his knee, he managed to hold his balance.
Niki’s face was gloomy. Since there was no antidote, so she had to go get the Secret
Medicine herself…
