Natalie was being pulled by two bodyguards, walking through a long corridor until they reached the door of the operating room.
However, she didn’t struggle along the way due to her confusion. She was pondering over the meaning behind the bodyguards’ words.
She gradually caught sight of a scene where Grandpa Graham was surrounded by doctors and the sound of beeping machines filled the air. Trembling, she took a couple more steps and saw Grandpa Graham’s body shaking uncontrollably.
What was happening?
Wasn’t Grandpa Graham out of danger? How could this be?
Natalie had confidence in her medical skills. She was certain that Grandpa Graham’s condition was stable inside the operating room, and all vital signs had returned to
normal.
There was no way this could be happening!
Faced with this scene, Natalie’s heart went into shock, and she finally started to struggle.
She tried hard to free herself from the grip of the two bodyguards, exclaiming, “Let me go! I wanna see how Grandpa Graham is doing!”
She had only gone out to change into surgical attire, how could things have turned out like this? What had happened?
The bodyguards didn’t release their hold, and Natalie looked up to see Julian’s face.
His face turned icy cold, and he looked like the freakin’ devil himself straight outta hell, as if he could snap and kill her any moment.
Natalie noticed Julian’s gaze and sensed that something was wrong.
She asked, “Julian, what are you doing? What happened to Grandpa Graham? What have
you done to him?” She voiced her questions one after another.
In the next moment, Julian’s words sent a chill down her spine.

Julian coldly sneered and looked at her with a frigid gaze. “Shouldn’t I be the one asking
you that?”
“Do you hate the Graham family so much that you’re willing to harm an innocent elderly
person?”
“Natalie, do you even have a conscience?”
Julian’s words hit Natalie one after another, each sentence chilling her to the core.
“What… are you saying?” She couldn’t believe Julian would say such things.
Grandpa Graham’s heart failure was already severe, making the surgery extremely
difficult. Furthermore, before Natalie performed the surgery, the Graham family’s private doctor had made medication errors, indirectly exacerbating Grandpa Graham’s heart
failure…
-The challenges she faced were already immense.
She had worked tirelessly, on high alert, to perform the surgery on Grandpa Graham,
fearing the slightest mistake.
After hours of surgery, not a single moment of losing focus throughout the whole thing, she finally managed to pull Grandpa Graham back from the brink of death, only to end
up with this kind of result…
It was truly tragic.
“Julian, do you think I caused Grandpa Graham’s condition to deteriorate like this?” Was
there really no trust in her?
Julian remained silent, his unyielding jawline directed towards Natalie, showing no
mercy.
His silence made it clear that he tacitly admitted Natalie’s accusations.
Seeing Julian’s expression, Natalie’s eyes revealed a mocking expression, and then she made a fierce move, flinging away the bodyguard who had been holding her wrist all
along.
“Let me go, you guys!”

Natalie suddenly exerted force, catching the bodyguards off guard and successfully freeing herself.
“You!” The bodyguard glanced at Julian’s icy expression and quickly lowered his head, attempting to regain his grip on Natalie’s wrist
in front of Julian, it would be disastrous if two strong men couldn’t even hold onto a
woman.
Would they end up being dismissed, just like those doctors?
Thinking of this, the two bodyguards trembled, and their outstretched hands got even more forceful. At this point, they didn’t even care if the person they were holding was a
hottie or not.
But before their hands could make contact, they heard the boss’s voice in their ears,
saying, “Let her go.”
The voice was as icy as ever.
“Huh?” One of the bodyguards was a bit stunned. “Julian, you mean we should let go Miss Spears?”
“Yeah,” Julian nodded.

The bodyguards had no choice but to obediently release their grip and step back. Now
was the time to stay out of the way so that Julian’s anger wouldn’t come down on their
own asses.
That was the kind of experience these bodyguards had gained surviving by Julian’s side
for so many years.
Niki stood by, seeing what was going on, feeling like something wasn’t right. What the
hell was Julian doing, suddenly telling the bodyguards to let go?
Could he really forgive Natalie for pulling this shit?
Hell no, she ain’t gonna allow it!
Niki’s eyes turned cold as she spoke up, “Natalie, why are you treating Grandpa Graham like this? Did he treat you that bad?”
I
Her voice carried doubt, like she was genuinely confused.
Then it seemed like something clicked in Niki’s mind, and she exclaimed, “Are you still pissed about what happened at the Graham family banquet last time?”
“But even if you’re holding a grudge against Grandpa for kicking you out of the banquet and making you look bad in front of all those people, you can’t treat him like this…”
“This is literally a life!”
Niki kept yapping on the side, adding fuel to the fire of Julian’s rage. It was like pouring gasoline on a burning inferno.
She wanted to make sure that Natalie would never be able to turn the tables in Julian’s
mind.
As Julian’s expression grew darker and darker, Niki felt even more satisfied. She wanted to stoke Julian’s anger even more.
When Natalie heard Niki’s voice, she looked up and locked eyes with her.
Natalie glanced at Niki for a moment, and her face instantly changed. She looked at Niki
and said, “You did this.”
For some reason, Natalie only needed one look at Niki to tell that she was the one
behind all of this.
Natalie’s words weren’t a question, but a statement.
Niki felt a tremor in her heart and said, “You…
How the hell did Natalie know? How could she be so sure?
But the shock in her heart only lasted for a second before Niki regained her composure. There was no way Natalie could know that she was the one behind this. She was just taking wild guesses.
“I didn’t,” Niki said, her gaze determined. “At the moment when you took Grandpa Graham out of the operating room, I didn’t even get close to grandpa. How could it be me?”
When Natalie heard this, she smirked.
She instantly understood.
So Niki had been waiting here for her.
She had been wondering why Niki didn’t immediately approach Grandpa Graham when
he came out, to show her concern for him.
Instead, she had been following her around, mocking her.
It turned out that she was trying to create an alibi for herself.
When Natalie fell silent, Niki’s eyes gleamed with mockery once again.
Once the effects of the medication wore off, Grandpa Graham would be completely
vegetative.
Once this stubborn old man turned into a persistent vegetative state, he wouldn’t be able
to object to her marrying Julian anymore.
It was like killing two birds with one stone.
Not only did it ensure that Natalie can never gain the upper hand in Julian’s heart, but it
also cleared the biggest obstacle on her path to marrying into the Graham family.
It looked like this old man’s life still had some usefulness left in it.
Niki’s expression fueled Natalie’s growing doubts. However, Natalie couldn’t afford to
waste any more time talking to Niki. She immediately stepped forward, and walked
towards Grandpa Graham.
She wanted to find out what Niki had done to Grandpa Graham.
She wanted to see how ruthless this innocent and sweet-looking woman could be just to marry into the Graham family.
“Natalie, you dare to go?” Just as Natalie took a step forward, she heard Julian’s warning voice from behind.
Julian’s eyes bore into her with his intense, pitch-black pupils, radiating a chilling and fierce gaze. He uttered each word with a cruel and ruthless tone, “You seriously wanna go and witness your own masterpiece?”
“Drag her back and kick her out,” Julian’s words sliced through the air like a sharp knife, showing no mercy whatsoever.
