Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 363

Chapter 363 Who in the World Did It?

“Richard, Old Mr. Benedict’s surgery might have been a success, but something unexpected happened during the operation, and someone will need to keep an eye on him for now. Can you help me out? I can’t rest assured if someone else does it,” said Nicole with a ghastly face. She was truly worn out.

Julia nodded in agreement and gave Richard a nudge. “Go ahead, Richard. I’ll be fine here with Nicole.”

Of course, Richard knew what was currently more pressing, and he was also assured after seeing that Julia was merely exhausted. “Alright, I got it. I’ll go over now.”

With that, he went into Benedict’s room.

On the other hand, Pierre was less than thrilled, thinking Benedict would have certainly died during this surgery. Who’d have thought Nicole would be so adept, seizing Benedict from the Grim Reaper when the situation had turned nearly irreversible?!

With that, he got up, not intending to stay any longer. After all, the old man was no longer in danger. “Since Old Mr. Benedict is fine, I shall take my leave now.”

Since everyone was still absorbed in the joy of Benedict’s successful surgery, they naturally didn’t pay any attention to Pierre.

However, Nicole suddenly called out to him just as he was about to leave, saying, “One second, Dr. Toth.”

Pierre stopped and turned to Nicole in response, asking with a placid smile, “Is there something I can help you with, Miss Nicole?”

“No.” Nicole bore into Pierre, enunciating, “What a coincidence for you to be here today.”

Pierre remained calm and collected, for he was confident that he did his job discreetly and that no one would be able to have something on him.

Nicole shut her eyes. She suspected it was Pierre’s handiwork and asked Anna, “Mrs. Gardner, has Pierre ever left your sight after coming over?”

Anna was stumped at first, but she understood immediately that Nicole was suspecting Pierre. “Are you saying that Pierre did it?”

Nicole pursed her lips and shook her head. “It’s just a guess. There’s no proof indicating it’s his doing.”

Anna fell silent at that. She thought long and hard about it, and there was indeed a moment. “Pierre had been sitting on the couch since he came, except for the one time he asked to go to the toilet. Thus, I had Edith escort him.”

With that, Edith hurriedly clarified by saying, “I came back right after taking Dr. Toth to the toilet. I don’t know what happened after that.”

Benjamin turned grave after hearing Nicole’s words and swept his gaze across the room before he spoke softly.
