Billionaire’s Missing Darling by Theresa Wilde

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 placed 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 Mala. Why

should we entangle ourselves in domestic conflicts?”

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

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

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

futile: endeavor.

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

Maily post occurrences 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.

She couldn’t help but recollect the heart–wrenching moment when her grandfather had collapsed 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 her composure. Her voice trembled with

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

lives, found jobs, and are gradually experiencing a semblance of peace. Why should we come 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 I lack the qualifications, but I’m not skilled enough.”

The situation was truly laughable.

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

it hilarious“ 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 Mala, 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 incompetents 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 collaborated with world–renowned

י

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 Mala, 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 plaintive. “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 means lacking.

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, complete 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 Mala, 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, at last, 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. She comprehended 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 vigilant. I can’t elaborate 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 and comprehends them

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

Thirdly, the Smith family doesn’t actually possess any potent formulas. 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 only come to appreciate after enduring a severe beating.

“Gillian.” Jarron displayed no surprise upon hearing Gillian’s revelations. 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’t compare to the Grant family at all”
