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.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith 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.
“I thought I should contribute, but it seems that you’re more than adept, Miss Nicole. In fact, you don’t need my
help at all. As expected of White’s protégé.”

After seeing that Nicole drooped her eyes and said nothing more, Pierre bid the Gardners farewell and left.
Colton turned to Nicole with a frown, sensing the abnormality in her words. “Did something happen?”
Nicole nodded with closed eyes and sighed before explaining, “Initially, the surgery was estimated to finish within
eight hours. The reason Julia and I stayed in there for so long was because someone tampered with the surgery by
drugging Old Mr. Benedict. He started bleeding out during the process and nearly…”
Nicole left her words hanging, but everyone understood her, and those who were still absorbed in the joy fell silent

Anna mulled over it for a long time, but she couldn’t figure out anyone who had grudges against their family or how
they did it.
“Who did it?” Colton asked with a frosty tone. His face was grim as it exuded malice.
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.
