    Chapter 316 Fight


    “I got someone to contact those people too, but I heard that White’s apprentices stopped practicing


    after White passed away.” Sorrow shed across Benjamin’s gaze as he spoke. Of course, they


    wouldn’t have had to put in this much effort if it weren’t for the fact that Benedict’s condition was


    worsening.

    Olivia felt rather frustrated upon hearing Benjamin’s statement. “Perhaps White’s apprentices were


    faking it all along. They used to depend on their master—that’s why none of them dare to practice on


    their own now that their master is gone. They simply aren’t skilled!”


    Nicole pressed her lips together and scoffed to herself when she heard Olivia’s offensivements.


    During Nicole’s first year there, she had indeed yed the role of White’s assistant. But as time


    passed, Nicole started performing a few surgeries, while White only observed to ensure that nothing


    went wrong.


    White had an excellent eye for talent—Nicole no longer needed White’s supervision after two years,


    and shepleted all sorts ofplicated surgeries independently. However, she hadn’t been able to


    reveal her true identity as she was still working with F&M Apparel back then.


    “Let’s just try to find White’s apprentices for now. We can look around for other doctors as well,”


    Benjamin uttered with a sigh. Then, all of a sudden, Anna spun her head to look at Julia as she


    seemed to recall something. “I recall your master being affiliated with White somehow, Julia. Do you


    know any of White’s apprentices?”


    Suddenly, Julia was stunned to hear her name at the dining table. “No!” She hastily shook her head.


    There was a look of guilt in her eyes. She realized she might have been too quick to say no, so she


    quickly exined herself.


    “White might have known my master, but they weren’t too close. They’ve only met a couple of times. I


    don’t know his apprentices at all,” she uttered.


    Anna gazed at Julia suspiciously. “Are you sure?” she asked. Julia immediately nodded. “Yeah. I don’t


    know any of White’s apprentices.” Since Julia insisted on her answer, Anna decided she wouldn’t push


    Julia further.


    Nheless, Olivia could tell that something wasn’t right as well. So, she spoke up without any


    hesitation. “Now’s not the time to keep secrets. Old Mr. Benedict’s illness can’t drag on like this. You


    need to tell us if you know one of them!”


    Julia’s face turned pale. As a doctor, she knew they couldn’t afford to dy Benedict’s treatment, but as


    Nicole’s friend, she knew how much White’s death had impacted Nicole.


    “I… don’t know,” Julia whispered.


    Olivia could sense that Julia was lying, and she thought that Julia wanted to seize this opportunity to


    ask for some money. “You should just tell us what you know, especially since Old Mr. Benedict’s life is


    in danger.


    So, why are you hiding the truth? Did we not give you enough money?” she asked in a rude tone. Olivia


    was being exceptionally straightforward and impolite toward Julia, perhaps because she was projecting


    all the annoyance she felt toward Nicole onto Julia.


    Julia’s face turned stark white when she heard Olivia’s words. Richard knew that Olivia’s words had


    been too harsh when he saw the look on Julia’s face, so he hastily spoke up for Julia. “Julia would tell


    you if she knew something. You don’t have to be so harsh.”


    Olivia scoffed and rolled her eyes at Richard. “I wonder who taught you to be so rude to your seniors.


    Hmph.”


    A faint smile surfaced on Richard’s face, and he looked directly into Olivia’s eyes as he retorted, “That’s


    true. I bet Old Mr. Benedict would’ve been doing better if you hadn’t triggered his temper.”


    “You—” Olivia was about to start a fight when Benjamin cleared his throat and frowned at Olivia. “That’s


    enough. Stop fighting. Will you only feel satisfied after fighting with everyone here?!”


    Olivia held her tongue back as she gave Richard a cold scoff before looking away. The Jenkins Family


    was pretty wealthy themselves, and Richard was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, so he had


    never had topromise with others since he was young.


    He stood up and held his hand out to hold Julia’s arm. “I’m afraid we won’t be able to have a peaceful


    meal today, Uncle and Aunt Gardner. Julia and I will leave now. We’ll visit Grandpa some other day.”
