Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Old Mr. Benedict Is Critically Ill

As soon as Nicole stepped foot into her house, she received a call from Julia.

“Nicole, I’ve just received a call from the Gardner Residence saying that Old Mr. Benedict’s condition has deteriorated, and they are calling for someone to go over right now.”

Nicole was stunned to hear this; he was still alive and kicking when she brought Hayden over just now. How did his condition worsen so fast?

Surprise flashed through her eyes, but she remained calm. “I just left and he seemed fine. He is probably riled up by Olivia.”

Hearing this, Julia let out a sigh and said, “Oh—what a shame. Old Mr. Benedict is a good man.”

Nicole pursed her lips and did not want to discuss this anymore. Ever since she stopped practicing medicine, she didn’t want to hear about other people’s illnesses.

On the other end, Julia seemed to get the hint and did not continue. “I’m going over to visit Old Mr. Benedict first. If you’re free, drop by and have a look.”

After that, Nicole let out a soft hum and did not speak anymore.

After sitting at home for a while, the uneasiness in her heart couldn’t be contained, and she finally couldn’t help but drive to the Gardner Residence.

Although she was just there this morning, the whole place seemed completely different now. Servants and bodyguards were all rushing back and forth in a hurry. It seemed like Benedict was critically ill.

Just as Nicole was about to go inside, someone rushed out and bumped into her.

“Nicole? What are you doing here?” Julia looked up at her, surprised.

Hearing Julia’s loud voice, Nicole frowned slightly as she pulled Julia aside. After she waited until no one was around, Nicole asked in a low voice, “How’s Old Mr. Benedict?”

Although it was said that Benedict was provoked by Olivia, if it wasn’t for Nicole and Hayden, Olivia wouldn’t have said all that either. Hence, in the end, Nicole still felt responsible for this.
