Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 296

Chapter 296 Do You Like Him?

Nicole froze when she heard that, but she kept her composure with a smile. “White was slandered in his earlier years and died in vain. I’m sure his apprentice wouldn’t show up so easily. Instead of holding onto this hope, you might as well look for other skilled doctors out there.”

She was calm and firm when she spoke, as if she was talking about someone else.

Colton had no choice but to stop and sigh. “You’re right. It’ll be best if we manage to find White’s apprentice. But if we can’t, there is nothing else we can do.”

Then, he continued with a smile on his face, “I didn’t expect you to know so much about White.”

This took her by surprise and she stiffly explained, “Since Julia and I are friends, I’ve heard her bringing White up a few times.”

She did not want to continue the topic as she was afraid that she would accidentally reveal more than she wanted. “Since Old Mr. Benedict is fine, I’ll make a move. When he feels better, I’ll bring Hayden here again.”

Colton nodded slightly. “Okay. Now that Grandpa is ill, my mother probably wouldn’t have the time to deal with you and Hayden. You can relax for now.”

Nicole was a little dumbfounded by what he said, albeit he was right. Without Benedict, she would never be forced by Anna to reunite with the Gardners.

Although Anna meant no harm to both Nicole and Hayden, Nicole really did not want anything to do with the Gardner Family. She was so used to living a carefree life that she refused to be restricted by their family rules.

“Alright. Thank you, President Gardner.” After saying this, she turned around and left.

When Nicole returned home, Zachary was sitting on the sofa awaiting her.

He raised his head once he noticed that she was back and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
