Chapter 304 It is just something about the newness
Julian’s face was extremely sour. Upon hearing that, he frowned and he looked terribly
sullen.
Niki noticed it. But she kept complaining as if she didn’t care about his emotions.
She continued to speak in an annoying way.
“Julian… what should we do now? If only you hadn’t left… then Grandpa would have
been saved.” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“What else did the doctor say? Do we have a chance to save Grandpa?
“If there is really no chance…” Niki said half way and suddenly stopped, “No, no, no, there must be a chance. Grandpa is such a good person. He will be lucky.”
Niki chattered incessantly until the chill around Julian deepened.
“Julian… I have wanted to find the great doctor from the Spears family for
had a try. But I am too humble. The doctor didn’t want to help me.”
She kept indicating that Julian failed her.
you. I also
It sounded like she, a woman, shouldered the responsibility to ask for the great doctor’s
help and was even abused by the bodyguards, but Julian, a man, did nothing.
“I found my courage to go to the great doctor. But there were so many bodyguards. I am just a woman, alone. I couldn’t get close to the doctor and was almost kicked out by those bodyguards.”
Thinking of the scene at that time, Niki felt a pang of sadness.
She was about to say something more when Julian’s hand suddenly hit the steering wheel. He stepped on the brake with one foot on the accelerator, and the car suddenly
came to a stop, causing Niki to lean forward and almost hit the glass.
“Ah…” Niki exclaimed in surprise and then rubbed her forehead with her hand.
“Julian… what’s the matter?” Niki looked as if she didn’t understand why Julian suddenly

stopped.
“Why did you suddenly brake the car? It’s very dangerous! Julian, did you get hurt?”
But in fact, she was very clear about the reason why Julian suddenly became angry.
Niki felt a sense of joy inexplicably. It was a feeling of revenge.
However, the target of retaliation was not Julian, but Natalie.
She thought, “Fine, Julian likes Natalie. He sneaked into the hospital to see her. He went
to the dressing room like a ‘hero’ to save her.”
Therefore, she would make Julian bear guilty toward his grandpa whenever he faced
Natalie.
She wanted him to know that his sudden feeling towards Natalie…
Thinking of this, Niki couldn’t help but sneer. Niki thought that Julian was interested at
Natalie just because of something like newness.
When Julian got back his mind, he would regret it immensely. He would understand that his feelings for Natalie were nothing compared to his grandfather’s life.
And what he truly loved was still her, Niki, whom he had loved for three years!
Natalie should be nothing to him.
Niki sneered. She was certain that owing to her making such a fuss when Julian thought
of Natalie, he would think of his own grandfather who was terminally ill.
At that time, it would be overwhelming guilt… All his feelings for Natalie would have
vanished.
The more Niki thought about it, the happier she felt. She couldn’t hide her joy.
She looked at Julian ‘anxiously’, as if worried about him. “Julian… are you okay?”
“If you feel sick, let me drive for you.”
Niki lowered her head and unbuttoned her seat belt, wanting to change seats with
Julian.
Unexpectedly, her words actually made him even more irritable. He turned to look at Niki,
with a clear, cold, and intimidating examination in his eyes.
“Can you be quiet for a while?”
His gaze was extremely intimidating.
Niki felt inexplicably timid for a moment, but she pursed her lips and tried to calm down.
She pretended to not know why he got angry. She quickly nodded ‘in fear’ and said,
“Julian… I’m sorry…”
“I won’t speak anymore. Don’t be angry with me.”
Julian remained silent at her apology. He placed one hand on the steering wheel and the
other hand on the window, appearing extremely irritable.
Even inexplicably, there was an urge to light another cigarette to have relief.
But he restrained himself.
The man’s gaze was fixed on the front like an eagle, and the air in the car was
suppressed.
Niki sat silently aside.
Compared to usual, she had become much more rational this time… She knew she
shouldn’t do too much.
The two of them had been sitting in the car for a long time… Just when Niki thought Julian was going to keep sitting, someone called Julian.
She glanced up.
The note was also “Grandpa”.
Niki couldn’t help but frown.
Julian seemed a bit impatient. He took his hand back from the window and answered
the phone. This time, Niki faintly heard Linda’s voice on the phone.
However, she didn’t hear the specific content clearly.
But it didn’t matter. Julian restarted the car. She could guess what Linda had said.
It must be that Oliver’s condition was really bad, forcing Linda to make frequent phone
calls to urge Julian.
The car rushed back to Los Angeles at a lightning-fast speed.
Late at night, in the Graham’s residence.
The vast residence now maintained a deathly silence. It was very oppressive. Even the
servants who cleaned the yard on weekdays were found nowhere.
Almost as soon as Julian got off the car, he felt that something was wrong.
Julian looked stern and walked hastily inside. Niki naturally noticed the air was
abnormal. She lowered her head and followed behind Julian.
Julian entered the living room and didn’t see Linda. He raised his hand and called out to
Gina, “Where’s your mother? Has she gone to bed?”
Gina happened to have just come downstairs when she saw Julian. She was surprised
and said, “Mr. Graham, there you are.”
“Mrs. Graham is up there! You go and take a look.”
After saying this, she hesitated before finally saying, “She… looks bad.”
Before she finished speaking, Julian got her. He took heavy steps up the stairs.
Niki silently followed behind.
In the room, Linda sat dumbfounded by the bed as if she had lost her thought, her face much haggard.
She looked aged several years, though just a few days had passed.
“Julian, you’re here…” Upon hearing the commotion, Linda turned her head as if she had
got her mind back.
Before Julian could reply, Linda noticed Niki standing silently behind him.
Linda stopped abruptly. Her eyes narrowed and her pale face looked chilly cold.
Niki’s face suddenly stiffened.
Linda’s gaze was truly terrifying.
