Chapter 359 Apology at the Doorstep
However, Colton didn’t bring Nicole back to the Gardner Residence but to her place instead. When he returned to
the Gardner Residence, the air was unnaturally still and Olivia was seated on the couch with a long face.
On the other end of the couch sat Benjamin with a solemn expression and Anna.
“You’re really absurd! How could you actually drag Nicole into the police station? Do you think that there isn’t
enough commotion? Or do you think that our family hasn’t been a bigger joke?” Benjamin chided, his face flushing.
He almost beat his chest and stomped his feet from the fury.
Olivia just had to disrupt the surgery, which was already planned!

On the other hand, she didn’t argue with him because she was in the wrong in this matter.
Grabbing Benjamin’s arm, Anna said gently, “Nicole is a nice person, so she probably won’t hold it against us. Later,
I’ll bring some gifts and apologize to her at her place. I think she won’t take this to heart.”
He glared at Olivia, snorted and looked away.
Knowing that she had made a mistake, Olivia humbled herself. “I didn’t know that Nicole is White Nicholson’s
student at first, and she didn’t say it either. If she had said it from the beginning, all this mess could have been
avoided. It’s all this bit—woman’s fault.”
The word ‘b*tch’ almost stumbled out of her mouth, but when she recalled that Nicole was White’s student, she
forcibly changed her choice of words.
Since Benjamin was already hopping mad, his fury burned brighter than the flames when he heard her quibbling.
“If you didn’t insist on acting ridiculously and brought the police here to arrest her, will any of this happen? If Nicole
refuses to operate on Dad, are you going to do it instead?”

When Olivia heard that, she sulked even harder and sneered, “She’s just White Nicholson’s student and Pierre said
there’s a fifty percent chance as well. If she’s not willing to do it, then just let her perform the surgery on Dad.”
By the time Colton walked into the room, he happened to hear Olivia’s suggestion and he paced up to them while
saying, “Pierre has a reputation in the medical field as a brag. Even though his skills are good, he’s mostly targeting
young people. At Grandpa’s age, I’m afraid it will be difficult for Pierre to do it.”
Seeing him, Anna hurriedly asked, “Colton, where’s Nicole?”
Then, she peered behind him but didn’t see Nicole, which caused her heart to skip a beat.
With a soft smile on his face, Colton turned to Olivia and answered slowly, “After suffering such a huge injustice, of
course Nicole’s home now. You can’t just expect her to return happily and perform the surgery for Grandpa as
though nothing has happened, can you?”
Olivia’s expression fell, and she understood the meaning behind her words. Tightening her palms, she wanted to
say something but couldn’t set her ego aside.
Immediately, Anna understood what he tried to express and quickly said, “I’ll get someone to prepare some things
now and visit her.”

Taking a few steps forward, Colton then sat next to her and said with a stiff face, “Mom, you don’t have to worry
about this. You’re not the one who caused this, anyway.”
His words made Olivia livid, but she suppressed her emotions. However, when she recalled the bed-ridden Benedict,
she had no choice but to rein back her temper.
Benedict’s condition was getting more unstable and Nicole was White’s student, which meant that what she said
was true—she had a high chance of success.
In spite of her despise for Nicole, judging from the current situation, she was the only person that could save
Benedict, and she had no other choice but to set aside her pride and beg Nicole!
“I got it. I’ll visit her and apologize to her so that she’ll return to operate on Dad!” Springing to her feet, Olivia
turned and left after speaking.
However, Anna was very anxious. Finally, there was some hope in Benedict’s condition, but she wasn’t so sure after
Olivia ruined everything.
