    Chapter 368


    Prior to Jarron’s return to the country, he had anticipated some level of cooperation, but he hadn’t


    foreseen it proceeding quite this seamlessly. He had only met Tracy once, and before he could even


    initiate his persuasion, Tracy had already aligned with him.


    He emitted a soft sigh, finding amusement in his prior apprehension.


    In the afternoon, Gillian ced a call. Her initial query was, “Jarron, how’s the progress on your end?”


    After inquiring, Gillian bit her lip and promptly added. If things don’t go smoothly, return. Dealing with


    Olivia is no small task, and the Grant family may not have noble intentions. We’re secure in M. Why


    should we entangle ourselves in domestic conflicts?”


    Gillian eventually moved past her reservations and recognized her own limitations.


    She acknowledged that she paled inparison to Olivia. In the past, she had been overly self–


    assured and overestimated her own abilities. In reality, Olivia’s superiority madepeting with her a


    futile: endeavor.


    Once a person moved beyond their previous perspective, they could view the situation in a new light.


    Maily post urrences that had seemed awkward and perplexing now appeared as nothing more than


    her own stubborn fantasies.


    Her grandfather had remained impartial, and no one else had shown any favoritism toward Olivia. The


    reason for their preference for Olivia was straightforward, namely she was exceptional.


    The mere thought of her grandfather caused Gillian’s heart to ache. She felt her entire body tremble


    with the pain, to the point where she wished for death. The memories were so painful that she almost


    couldn’t bear to recollect them.N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    She couldn’t help but recollect the heart–wrenching moment when her grandfather had copsed from


    a heart attack.


    She thought, “How could I have been so callous? Grandfather showered me with so much love. He


    adopted me, cared for me, and taught me medicine… I could never repay his kindness in this life, let


    alone the next. But what did I do? I not only failed to call for help when he suffered a heart attack but


    also watched as he gasped for air and lost consciousness.


    Recalling the way her grandfather had gazed at her that day, Gillian’s heart was filled with anguish.


    After taking a few deep breaths, she finally managed to regain herposure. Her voice trembled with


    despair as she said, “Jarron,e back. Isn’t it better for us to stay overseas? We’ve established our


    lives, found jobs, and are gradually experiencing a semnce of peace. Why should wee back


    and immerse ourselves in the feud between the Grant family and the Smith family?”


    Jarron had been in a good mood, eager to share the day’s developments with Gillian, but she ended up


    dampening his spirits with her discouraging words.


    “Good? Do you consider our lives overseas as good?” He scoffed and added in a derisive tone, “I’m


    toiling away in the hospital day in and day out, but I can’t even conduct a proper surgery. I’m merely an


    assistant. It’s not because Ick the qualifications, but I’m not skilled enough.”


    The situation was trulyughable.


    Jarron couldn’t contain hisughter. He pointed at his own chest and eximed, “Gillian, don’t you find


    it hrious“ You actually suggested that I’m not qualified or skilled enough? Is there a funnier joke in the


    world?”


    At this point, Jarron’s face was filled with hatred. “Those trash are actually worthy of my help! I’ve been


    the assistant for so many years and have only worked for Dr. Moss from M, Professor Muller from


    Dunwall, and the Garfield expert from Yougria… There all the most famous doctors in the world. Doctor


    brain surgery department.


    “Who do these ipetents think they are? How dare they audaciously request my assistance!”


    Jarron hissed. “In the past, when I was in the country, numerous individuals implored me to treat them.


    My surgical appointments were booked months in advance. I’ve coborated with world–renowned


    ?


    experts from the top international brain surgery departments. Isn’t this level of qualification sufficient?


    “Even though I’m young, I’ve served as the lead surgeon in over a thousand operations, and I have


    never failed. Is this still considered subpar?”


    While speaking. Jarron’s eyes welled with tears, and his voice took on a sorrowful tone. “Gillian, I can’t


    wait any longer. At this rate, when will I achieve the pinnacle in the field of brain surgery, the world’s top


    expert! Gillian, do you understand? In the past year in M, I have never been appointed as the chief


    surgeon for any surgery. Not even for the most minor procedures. They won’t allow me to.


    “All the surgical proposals I’ve submitted have been rejected.


    “Gillian, if this persists, my career will be ruined.”


    Tears streamed down Gillian’s cheeks. She struggled to console him, but the words caught in her


    throat, rendering her unable to utter them.


    Ultimately, she could only express her helplessness with a intive. “Jarron…”


    She pondered, “Why did life have to be so challenging


    Gillian sank to the ground, her gaze awash with despair.


    Throughout her life, things had generally gone smoothly for her. Even though Olivia received more


    attention from the family, Gillian’s share of love was by no meanscking.


    When she found studying challenging, her grandfather arranged for a private tutor from the province to


    assist her. When she expressed a desire to learn dance, her grandfather enlisted the services of the


    finest dance instructor. After she enrolled in university, she struggled with dormitory living, so her


    grandfather secured a small apartment near the campus for her,plete with a nanny to take care of


    her household chores.


    From her early years, her most significant challenge had been grappling with envy over Olivia’s


    exceptional abilities.


    Nevertheless, after relocating to M, she came to the stark realization that life could be exceedingly.


    tough.


    It proved to be a hundred or even a thousand times more arduous than she had anticipated.


    Jarron was much like her. In fact, his life had been even smoother than hers. He had never harbored.


    jealousy toward Olivia. From a young age, he had consistently been the most exceptional individual in


    any group.


    Gillian couldn’t bear to see Jarron endure the same hardships as her.


    She closed her eyes and, atst, arrived at a decision. Jarron, I’ll return and assist you.”


    Olivia was exceptionally formidable, surpassing their initial estimations. Gillian was deeply concerned.


    for Jarron.


    After all, she was Olivia, having undergone hypnosis. Sheprehended her intelligence, but Jarron,


    in his heart, still viewed Olivia as the brilliant and confident sister.


    Gillian cautioned Jarron over the phone, Jarron, no matter how smoothly your return goes, you must


    remain vignt. I can’t borate over the phone. I’ll book the earliest flight back to China. Until then, I’ll


    provide you with a few reminders.


    “Firstly, Olivia possesses extremely advanced medical skills, far surpassing my previous estimations.


    When Grandpa introduced me to those influential figures, it wasn’t because he favored her; it was


    because the required her assistance.


    “Secondly, Olivia is exceptionally intelligent. She grasps concepts swiftly andprehends them


    instantaneously. She had numerous influential mentors, all of whom were her personal connections.


    Thirdly, the Smith family doesn’t actually possess any potent forms. They are all spurious and non–


    existent. Acquiring knowledge of the Smith family’s methods, especially silver needle, is also an


    exceedingly challenging task.”


    These were all the verities that Gillian had onlye to appreciate after enduring a severe beating.


    “Gillian.” Jarron disyed no surprise upon hearing Gillian’s revtions. Instead, he remained quite


    composed. “Don’t worry. I’m aware of all this. The Grant family’s associates have already filled me in. I


    understand that Olivia is incredibly intelligem. I won’t underestim her. However, you should refrain


    from overestimating her and assuming she’s invulnerable,


    “Compared to the imposing Grant family, she was like an ant. There was no reason to feel


    apprehensive “What I must remain cautious of is her utilization of dandestine techniques. As long as


    evertice prudence and don’t stumble into her snares, she won’t be capable of confronting me directly


    Reflecting on this, Jarron grinned Previously, you couldn’t beat Olivis because you were exemively


    compassionate and impulsive. If you aimed to surpass her in the realm of medical proficiency, you


    engaged in an entirely gentlemanly contest. You even ployed your vulnerability to contend with her


    strengths.


    “How can we expect to triumph like this


    “But this time, it’s distinct, Jarron exuded confidence. No matter how formidable Olivia may be, she is


    just a single individual. She can’tpare to the Grant family at all”
