Chapter 326 Visiting Old Mr. Benedict

Nicole took a look at Kylie before taking another look at Joanna. “Don’t forget what President Gardner said, Director Schmidt. She’s an outsider.

You should know when to be careful while working in the Gardner Corporation. If anything related to Ann gets exposed, I’ll hunt you down first.” Nicole smiled and turned to leave after finishing her words.

Joanna watched as Nicole walked away, and the former felt a surge of resentment within her as she thought about what Nicole had said. She was close to losing her temper, but she had to remain calm and graceful in front of her subordinates. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Hence, she pressed her lips together and gazed at Kylie before whispering to her, “Don’t get mad, Kylie. Miss Lisa has always been like that.”

Kylie scoffed in response. “I know she’s always been like that. Sooner or later, she’s going to fall from her pedestal. She’s going to fall to her death!”

Joanna didn’t say anything more when she heard Kylie’s angry words. Even though she didn’t like Kylie that much, at least they hated the same person. That made them friends.

…

Once Nicole got to the office, she ordered Whitney to dig up all of Sarah’s dark past and the exact time when Sarah had posted her first hit song.

Back then, Nicole had once uploaded this song on an international social media platform, but she hadn’t gained a lot of acknowledgement. Hence, no one managed to find it even after Sarah took the song for herself.

When Whitney learned that they were about to make things hard for Sarah, she felt oddly motivated. She began hunting for information immediately.

Nicole had faith in Whitney’s technological skills—as long as Whitney put her heart to it, she would certainly be able to find all of Sarah’s dark history.

They had already wasted some time while visiting Sarah and they had to go to the Design Department after that, so it was nearly time to get off work by the time they got back to their office.

The next day was the weekend, so Nicole packed up and prepared to bring Hayden over to visit Benedict. However, after the fight she had with Olivia, she made sure to give Wendy a call to make sure that Olivia wasn’t around before she brought Hayden over.

Hayden widened his eyes as he held Nicole’s hand. “Mommy, am I here to visit Grandma and Great- Grandpa?” he asked puzzledly.

“Yeah.” Nicole nodded. Benedict was in a critical condition, and they didn’t know when he would pass away. The old man was fond of Hayden, so Nicole figured that she would bring her son over to visit since she had the time.

Anna probably heard about their visitation, so she walked out of the house to welcome them when Nicole and Hayden first arrived.

“Grandma!” Hayden called out sweetly when he saw Anna. She beamed at the young boy. “Hello, my dearest grandson!” Anna hugged Hayden and squeezed him tight before speaking to Nicole with a straight face. “Did you bring Hayden over to visit Old Mr. Benedict, Nicole?”

“Yeah. Old Mr. Benedict likes Hayden, so I thought I’d bring Hayden over to visit him,” Nicole explained. Anna lowered her gaze to look at the young boy.

“Old Mr. Benedict’s room smells like antiseptic. Would Hayden be okay with that?” Before Nicole could respond, Hayden answered for himself. “I don’t mind. I used to be sick all the time, so I’m used to the smell of hospitals,” he replied.

A mixture of love and sympathy surfaced in Anna’s eyes when she heard Hayden’s words. “Were you a sick child in the past, Hayden?” she asked while kneeling down to meet the boy’s eyes.

“Yeah. Hayden was a premature baby, so he suffered all sorts of illnesses when he was young,” Nicole replied. That was also the reason Nicole hadn’t hesitated when White offered to take her as his apprentice.

She figured that Hayden would be well and healthy as long as she had the necessary medical skills.
