Chapter 317 Rejection

The sound of the footsteps from the gate of Red Copper Bureau were getting closer and

closer. Niki’s heart became increasingly nervous, almost being raised up to her throat.

Julian was expressionless, without any tension, forming a sharp contrast with Niki.

While waiting for the person inside to open the gate, Julian stood still, suddenly feeling

something in his heart somehow.

As if he had remembered something, Julian turned his head and looked at Natalie who

was standing not far away.

He saw Natalie was raising her eyebrows slightly with a faint smile at the corner of her

mouth, giving a hint of mockery, as if she was watching a drama.

< At the moment when Julian turned and gazed at her, Natalie immediately withdrew her

smile and regained her expressionless face.

Although her smile faded away quickly, Julian’s gaze was even faster to clearly capture

her look just now.

Julian frowned subconsciously.

What did Natalie’s expression just now mean? Was she actually gloating?

His grandpa was in danger. Without the help of divine doctor of the Spears family, there would be nochance of survival for his grandpa. He and Niki traveled thousands of miles.

to New York just to save grandpa’s life.

But Natalie was gloating here?!

How dare she?

Julian’s face looked bad, and he gritted his back teeth,

He didn’t understand what Natalie was thinking all day.

Driven by anger, Julian turned around and waved to Natalie, gesturing for her to come

over.

Natalie saw the man’s signal and was a bit confused. She widened her eyes and pointed

at herself, “Me?”

Julian was lack of patience and he nodded testily, unwilling to repeat his words again.

But Natalie was unwilling to take any steps towards Julian.

For what reason should she go to Julian just because he told her so? She was not a

servant of the Graham family, like she could come and go anytime whenever he gave an

order.

Besides, she was not stupid. If she proactively approached the front door, the Spears

family servant who might open the door must recognize her.

At that time, if the servant shouted “Miss” to her in front of Julian and Niki, wouldn’t her

identity be exposed?

She would not be going.

Natalie shook her head expressionlessly at Julian. She didn’t want follow Julian’s rules.

Julian’s face was visibly brushed with a hint of anger, and his eyes narrowed slightly, giving off a chill allover.

This woman… is really getting more and more reckless.”

Natalie and Julian’s cold eyes met each other.

For only just a second, she silently looked away from the man’s eagle-like gaze.

Julian looked really stern and fierce… Although she had done nothing wrong, his look

made her feel like she had really done something wrong, and her heart even felt guilty.

Fortunately, this eagle-like sharp gaze only lasted for a few seconds, and the sound of

the door opening came.

Julian then turned his head.

Natalie took a long breath and silently took a half step back, getting more far away from

the two of them.

The red copper gate was slowly pushed open, and a huge thrust accompanied by a

refreshing breeze rushed towards their faces: Niki couldn’t help but take a half step

back.

Julian looked up and saw that two burly chaps who opened the door. They were way too

strong in physique.

Although they were physically strong, they did not give people a sense of ferocity. Instead, theyseemed learned and refined, striking a great sense of contrast with their

appearance.

“Greetings to you, gentlemen.” Niki immediately greeted them sweetly with a very humble

and gentle posture.

Lucas Spears, the one who opened the door, ignored Niki’s words and only looked ahead. to do officialbusiness according to official principles, “What are you here for?”

The Spears family’s residence was located in a secluded and remote area, and outsiders

had never known the address, so no one had knocked on the door for many years.

And that left no reason to have gatekeepers for the Spears family.

If it weren’t for the two of them coming out of the pharmacy and passing by the front

gate, they would have not heard the knock and would have not opened the door.

Otherwise, nobody would come to answer even if these two people kept knocking on the

door for a whole day.

“Ah… Here’s the thing. We’re from Los Angeles and we’re looking for the divine doctor of

the Spears family.”

Niki spoke in a low voice. She was so humble that she almost lowered her head to the

ground.

“The divine doctor of the Spears family?” Repeated Lucas in a low voice, touching his

chin.

Niki quickly nodded and said, “Yes, that’s right. It’s the internationally known divine

doctor of the Spears family… We have something important to ask and want to see him.”

“Since when does the Spears family have a divine doctor?” Lucas looked puzzled.

He is a Spears family member and he had never heard of this divine doctor of the Spears

family. Where did this rumor come from?

Niki was startled by these words and said, “Ah? Didn’t the Spears family have a divine

doctor?”

“It shouldn’t be… The divine doctor must exist.” Niki thought these two people were

deliberately trying to drive her away, so they lied that the Spears family didn’t have the

divine doctor.

So she quickly tugged at Julian’s hem, gesturing for him to speak.

Julian took the woman’s hand off his clothes.

He said, “We are looking for the doctor who attended the communication meeting in Chicago not longago.”

“Ah…The communication meeting in Chicago…” Lucas once again touched his chin and muttered tohimself, “Chicago… when did the communication meeting hold…”

“Ah…I remember.” He patted his head knowingly.

Niki quickly looked over with anticipation, “Do you remember who the doctor is?”

“The person who went to the communication meeting last time was… “Lucas stopped.

He realized that it was Adam Spears, the head of the family, who went to the meeting

last time.

Are these two people looking for him?!

He suddenly changed his face.

“May I ask if you have made any appointments to pay your homage?” Lucas’s tone

changed from calm to serious. “Without that, outsiders are not allowed to enter.” His

voice was extremely cold.

“Appointment?” Niki frowned, as she had never heard of this requirement to visit the

“Spears family.

“Sorry, we don’t have it.” Julian said seriously, looking into Lucas’s eyes.

“If so, you two may leave now.”

As the words fell, Lucas put his hand on the door and was about to close it.

“Hey, hey!” Niki quickly stopped the man with her hand. “Please wait a moment.”

Lucas frowned.

This woman really had no sense of proportion. He already said no, why did she still try to be like this?

“I am a collateral relative by blood of the Spears family. My name is Niki Linch. Do you think you canstretch this rule and let us in?”

When Niki said this, her face had a gentle smile, as warm as the spring breeze, and her

Get Borut

eyes were so charming, glittering like a river under the autumn sunlight.

This is her trump card. She has great confidence in her appearance. Seeing a smile like

that, every man will be a bit softhearted.

Unexpectedly, Lucas still remained expressionless.

If he met this woman in front of him who claimed to be a collateral member of the

Spears family before the young miss returned home, he indeed would take a closer look.

to her.

But he had already met the famous young miss of the Spears family a few days ago…

The appearance of the woman in front of him was not as stunning as that of the young miss from theSpears family.

If you’ve ever seen the best looking woman, then other women naturally won’t catch your

eyes.

“No way.” Lucas was resolute and decisive with no mercy.

Niki’s smile went frozen on her face.

She asked resentfully, “You wouldn’t even let a collateral relative by blood go in?”

“Isn’t the Spears family always the most affectionate? How can you keep your own people out of thedoor?”

Lucas ignored Niki’s words and just lowered his head to repeat the same words, “Please leave.”

His attitude was so firm that there was no room for mediation.
