Chapter 311
Chapter 311 Set out for New York
Julian and Linda sat in the ward. Lying on the bed, Oliver’s face was calm as if he were asleep. But his haggard face still exposed his poor state of health.
Julian sat on the left side of the bed while Linda on the right side.
They looked at each other in silence.
Linda calmed down a lot now, not as emotionally excited as she had just been. She returned to the dignified and elegant appearance she had always been.
Julian stood up slightly, wanting to say something to his mother to break the awkward atmosphere.
Coincidentally, Gina walked in with a towel and a basin of water, interrupting his movements.
Julian sat back again.
Oliver had been lying on the bed for several days, he needed someone to clean his body, and Gina was here to complete this task
“Let me do it,” Linda suddenly stood up and took the towel from Gina’s hand.
Gina was a bit reluctant, “Madam, I’m on it.”
“It’s my duty. You could go and have a rest.”
Linda gently shook her head and spoke softly, “the Graham Family is on the line now. How could I take a rest?”
“I can’t fall asleep. I feel like finding something to do.”
Seeing Linda’s determined face, Gina had no choice but to pass the towel to her.
Upon hearing this, Julian felt quite embarrassed.
He knew Linda said this to him…
Since his father had left, he took over the position of CEO of the Graham Group from his grandfather. He was now the backbone of the Graham Family.
Previously, his grandfather had been his mother’s rock; but now grandfather was bedridden, and his life was on the line. His mother could only count on him.
Julian knew clearly that, as the only man left in the Graham Family, he was not a competent leader.
He pursed his lips,
He had never felt before that the weight on his shoulders was so heavy… Since his father and brother passed away in that car accident, everything has surged towards him like a huge wave.
From taking care of the aftermath, the company went bankrupt, his mother fell ill, his position was coveted by relatives, and then to the expiration of the authorization, Grandpa fell ill…
After experiencing so many things, Julian felt extremely exhausted, endless exhaustion wrapped around him.
In the dark room, he sat in front of the bed as if he was to merge with the endless darkness.
His half-opened eyes were devoid of emotion, his thin chin was tight, and his lips were pale green.
Gina noticed his fatigue.
“Sir, since madam is unwilling to take a rest, you can go take a rest first. I will accompany madam here,” Gina said. She could see that Julian had become thinner from overwork and lack of sleep these days.
Julian raised his eyes and said, “No, I don’t need rest.”
“My grandfather is ill; I should accompany him.”
He went to Chicago, but he failed to invite the
divine doctor of the Spears Family for his grandfather. He hoped that his grandfather would not blame it on him.
Accompanying grandfather was the only way to expiate his guilty.
Gina knew Julian had made up his mind, she sighed and silently retreated to one side.
Linda was wiping Oliver’s face carefully; her movements were very elegant. Although her face was haggard because of overwork, it still exuded an air of relaxed calm and beauty that had never defeated by time.
This temperament was also present in Natalie.
It seemed that no matter what happened on them, they could maintain a noble posture.
The figure of Natalie submerged in Julian’s mind, making his face even more gloomy.
He managed to erase her figure and then brought up other topics.
“Mom, I’m gonna go to New York to find the divine doctor of the Spears Family for grandpa.”
“New York?” Linda put down the tower, she was a bit surprised.
“Yeah,” Julian nodded, his tone was heavy with determination.
“Do you know the status of the Spears Family in New York? Not to mention whether you can call for the divine doctor, you may not even be able to know where the Spears Family is.”
Linda clearly knew that it was an Impossible task.
“Niki could help me with it.”
“Niki?” at the mention of Nild’s name, disgust appeared on Linda’s face. She sneered,” how is she going to help you?” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“She knows nothing. How can she help you find the Spears Family? She is just deceiving you.”
Tricking men with flirtatious conversation was Niki’s strong suit.
Linda had seen enough of it when she was young.
Julian didn’t say a word when facing Linda’s contempt toward Niki.
He knew mother had been disliking Niki.
“Niki is a distant relation of the Spears Family. She can take me to find it.”
Upon hearing this, Linda stopped wiping Oliver’s face at once.
“Niki is the Spears Family’s distant relation?” Linda asked in confusion. How could that be?
The Spears Family was a famous scholar family, everyone in it was educated and classy, while Niki… Her existence was a shame on the Spears Family.
Linda doubted Niki’s background.
Julian knew that his mother was about to question Niki’s identity, so he butted in,
“Mom, trust me. Niki is indeed a distant relation of the Spears Family. We plan to depart for New York tomorrow. During this time, you need to take care of grandfather.”
“How can you be certain of Niki’s identity? I’m afraid you might be deceived…” Before Linda finished speaking, Julian stood up and left the room without looking back.
He had had enough of his mom’s nag.
“Hey, where are you going?” Linda put down the towel and chased out, but Julian had already sat in the car. All she could see was the exhaust gas.
She looked at the distance, putting down her hand in distress.
The next day, while Niki was still in sleep, someone knocked on the door of her apartment.
Lily was shocked by the loud sound and quickly ran to the door.
She opened the door and spoke before she could see who the person was clearly, “keep your voice down! You’re not allowed to knock until ten o’clock. Are you new here? Don’t break the rules!”
Nild had been very picky about her lifestyle and would become quite annoyed when she was woken up by others. If someone dared to disrupt her sleep, she would definitely go nuts on everyone around her.
So Lily had already told all apartment residents about Niki’s rules. Thus no one would dare to knock on the door in the morning,

The person in front of her remained motionless.
Lily hurried to say, “are you deaf? Get out of here and come back after ten o’clock!” As she spoke, she lifted her eyes. and tried to push the man away.
Then she saw the man’s face clearly.
An exceptionally handsome face appeared in front of her.
Julian Graham?!
Lily was startled and quickly swallowed all the words, “Mr. Graham, pl… Please come inside.”
“Don’t knock on the door before ten o’clock?” Julian stared at her with cold, thoughtful eyes.
Lily stammered, “well… Miss. Linch slept late last night. I hope she could have a good rest, so…”
She couldn’t expose Niki’s true color in front of Julian, or Niki would kill her!
Julian felt dubious of her explanation.
“Wake Niki up and tell her to start packing and go to New York with me.”
“Okay, I’ll do it right now,” Lily nodded, “won’t you come in, Mr. Graham?”
Wearing in a black coat, Julian stood there expressionlessly. He slightly furrowed eyebrows, narrowed his eyes; his thin lips were like sharp knives.
“No.”
He stood outside the door, not willing to step into this apartment.
His detached expressions were like a stranger visiting an apartment.
