Chapter 185
Billionaire’s Missing Darling
Gillian failed to go to the Patterson family. She had been so worried that a few strands of her hair had turned white.
Moreover, she didnât even have anyone to discuss it with for the past two days.
For some reason, Lindsay suddenly left the country.
Healix had been very busy these few days. She could not even contact him on the phone.
After hesitating for a while, she suddenly thought of someone. Augus from West Hill Sanatorium!
As she thought of Augus, Gillianâs heart jumped faster.
She could not suppress the excitement in her heart.
Before Augus retired, he was a deputy minister, which was a highâranking position in the government.
Ordinary people could only catch glimpses of such influential figures on the news and rarely had direct contact with them.
When she was young, because of her grandfatherâs favoritism, he always brought Olivia to the sanatorium to visit Augus.
For the sake of her grandfather, Augus took good care of Olivia and even looked after her personally for a few years.
The reason why Olivia could get to know an internationally renowned violin master was because of Augusâs help.
No one knew what she thought of, but Gillian dug her fingertips into her palm and exhaled deeply.
After a while, her emotions gradually calmed down.
It was different. Everything was different!
Gillian told herself that she was no longer the little girl who was leaning against the door and staring at Oliviaâs back.
The current her was the head of the Smith family.
Augus would show her respect and receive her personally. He would never pay attention to Olivia again, not even a little.
After changing into proper clothes, Gillian prepared some gifts and decided to go to the West Hill Sanatorium personally.
11:16 âThe sanatorium was located very far away from the cay Gillian drove for nearly two hours before reaching the entrance to When the guard at the door saw a car coming, over, he waved his hand va stop it.
âWhereâs your pass? You canât enter without a paser Gillian rolled down the window and explained with a smile, âHello, Iâm here to visit Augus. Iâm from the Smith family. Please inform him.
The guard shook his head, âIâm sorry, You canât enter without a passt Gillian was anxious, âHow could he not let me in? In the past, when Olivia came over, she did not have a pass and always passed through freely,â she thought.
âIâm the head of the Smith family, I mean, where the miracle doctor comes fromâ Gillian emphasized.
âPlease inform him. Once Mr. Swift hears this, he will let me inâ
The guard was wellâmannered. Although he felt that Gillian was being unreasonable and pestering, he still explained with a good attitude, Tm sorry, Miss. You canât enter without a pass. You can contact them by phone and get the people inside to pick you up.â
Gillian was speechless.
If she had a number, how could she not call?
Gillian felt that this guard was too much. Not only did he not repon it, but he also didnât know about the Smith family.
In the early years, Grandpa often came here. It was only in recent years that he did not come.
It had only been five or six years, and the guards couldnât recognize the Smith family.
She paced around the door for a long time but did not enter in the end.
Gillian slapped the steering wheel angrily and returned resentfully.
Halfway through, feeling unwilling to give up, she turned back and forcefully handed a note to the security guard. On the note, it was written the name of the head of the Smith family, Gillian, along with her phone number.
âPlease, you must send the note in.â
She clasped her hands together and bowed to the guard before leaving.
11-17 After Gillian left, the guard took the note and hesitated for a while before reporting it to his superior.
After the higherâups received the news, they immediately contacted Augusâs personal secretary.
âThe head of the Smith family?â The secretary frowned. âWhat era are we in? We donât recognize such titles as head of the familyâ or âtribal leader.â
Just throw it away.â
Coincidentally, Augus had just returned from a walk in the courtyard. When he heard his secretary calling, he asked, âWhat happened?â
The secretary explained, âMr. Swift, someone stuffed a note in saying that sheâs the head of the Smith family.â
The head of the Smith family?
Augus also frowned and shook his head. âIâve never heard of it. Just these words?â
âThereâs the name Gillian. The rest is the phone number.â
âGillian!â Augus frowned.
Why did this name sound so familiar?
Someone seemed to have mentioned it to him, but after thinking for a long time, he could not figure it out.
Forget it, he wouldnât think about it anymore. It shouldnât be anyone important.
Healix thought that Gillian would give up on introducing the lifeâsaving medicine on the day of the banquet if she could not obtain the drug identification report and clinical trial approval.
Unexpectedly, she insisted on sticking to her original plan.
âAre you crazy?â Healix was so angry that his entire body was trembling. âHow dare you introduce this kind of ThreeâNo medicine in front of so many people? The Smith family is shameless, but Healix Pharmaceuticals still has its reputation!â
Gillian tilted her head and rubbed the space between her eyebrows. After a while, she slowly said, âTomorrow is the banquet. At that time, elites from all walks of life will gather. Even the media and reporters will be invited. If I canât produce any shocking medicine that day, who will take the Smith family seriously?â
At this point, Gillianâs tone suddenly became heavier. âMy medical skills 11:17 your hers are inferior to Grandpaâs. In the past, the outside world only showed the Smith family respect because Grandpa was around. Now that Iâve just obtained the miraculous treatments of the Smith family, it will take at least two years to master it.
âTwo years sounds like a short time and passed quickly.
âHowever, itâs enough to make the Smith family fall from its reputation to being nameless!â
Healix was silent, his expression conflicted.
Seeing this, Gillian sighed and continued, âGrandpa Healix, itâs not that I want to take the risk, but the Smith family has reached the point where I have no choice but to take the risk. Only when my reputation rises and improves will Healix Pharmaceuticals be better.â
Healix sighed and finally agreed.
However, he had a condition. âAfter the banquet, the lifeâsaving medicine has to be tested as soon as possible. Moreover, it has to wait for the test report before it can be released.â
âDonât worry. Iâm not an insensible person,â Gillian said. âIâm also afraid that something will happen. It wasnât easy for the Smith family to get to where it is today. I canât ruin the Smith familyâs reputation that has been around for hundreds of years.â
Healix nodded. âAlright, as long as you know what youâre doing.â
At the Green family.
Amelia was pestering her mother, Cathy. âMom, please bring me there.â
âNo.â Cathy refused immediately. Her expression was ugly. âTomorrow, youâll stay at home and not go anywhere.â
âMomâ¦â Amelia was helpless.
She had been pestering her mother for a few days, but her mother refused. No matter what, she refused to bring Amelia to the Smith familyâs banquet.
Amelia really wanted to go to the Smith familyâs banquet and see Olivia.
Unfortunately, the Taylor family did not receive an invitation. She had no choice but to beg her mother.
âMom.â Amelia sat beside Cathy and rested her chin on Cathyâs shoulder. Just like when she was young, she whispered, âI havenât seen Olivia in a long time. I know that everything that happened before was my fault. It 11:17 was my fault. I was biased and hurt Olivia.â
At this point, Amelia paused as if she was suppressing her sudden emotions.
After a long time, she said in a hoarse voice, âMom, please. I really want to see her. I want to apologize to her personally.â
After all, she was Cathyâs biological daughter. In the end, Cathy could not dissuade her.
Cathy nodded and agreed. âItâs a deal. Iâll bring you there, but you canât mention Emma, let alone plead for her.â
âYes.â Amelia lowered her head to hide the thoughts in her eyes. Her tone was soft. âI wonât.â
