Chapter 96 Your nickname is also Nana?

At the moment when Philip’s voice came from her phone, everyone fell silent.

H

Niki was momentarily stunned and speechless. Just now, her bold words slowly echoed in her mind,and then her mind went blank.

Natalie was still shaking the glass of wine, and the shaking amber liquor reflected light under the light.

Her face was expressionless.

This is completely discernable.

Niki tried to turn her mind around and said, “What you just said was… you can’t delegate authority tothe Graham family?”

It seems like she wanted to replace a glimmer of life for myself.

“That’s right.” Philip patiently replied. If he hadn’t just woken up completely, he would have hung up thephone by now.

“It’s not for free. The Graham family will buy it.” Niki added this sentence as if it suddenly came to hermind.

She comforted herself in her heart that even if Philip liked her again, he couldn’t let such a high valueauthorization fee go. His reply is indeed reasonable.

After saying this, she turned her head and glanced at Mr. Graham.

Although Mr. Graham’s face was gloomy, he didn’t mean to speak up and stop her. Niki relaxed andsaid, “Philip, I mean.. the Graham family can give you as much money as you want.”

“As much as I want? “Philip’s voice was lazy and scattered.

“Yes.” Niki nodded.

“My answer is also ‘No’.

Upon hearing this, Natalie couldn’t help but curl her lips. Philip always like to give people hope butthen. makes them disappointed… He is really good at this.

She drank the wine from the glass in one gulp.

Philip was playing with the flowers in the vase on the other end of the phone, and he thought seriouslyabout

authorization.

Although the authorization of the New Bleomycin Drug nominally belongs to the Glory group, it wasdeveloped by Natalie after all. As for the authorization letter, it was only after Natalie confirmed it thathe

could decide whether to give it or not.

What he said doesn’t count.

“Is there anything else? “Said Phillp.

“Nothing. “Niki was repeatedly rejected. At this moment, her feelings were mixed, but she was moreregretful.

Before Niki could finish speaking, Philip interrupted her.

“Please don’t call if you have nothing important.” followed by a hang up call.

The sound of the phone hanging up reached Niki’s ears, and she stood still, as if she had notrecovered.

Then Grandpa Graham spoke with only one word.

“Disgraceful.”

At this moment, this word seemed extremely embarrassing for Niki.

Linda seemed calm and composed, as if she had anticipated it long ago. She looked at Natalie put adish in front of her and said, “Natalie, don’t just drink, eat something.”

It’s as if Niki doesn’t exist at all.

Natalie quickly waved her hand and said, “Auntie Linda, I’m already full, don’t give me any more food.”

“You should eat some.” Linda continued to pick up the food for her with a hint of command in her tone,”Eating more is the key to good health. You’ve done too much for the Graham family before, but nowyou’ve lost too much weight compared to before you married Julian, so you need to eat more for yourhealth.”

“However, Nana, there’s one thing that Auntie still needs to talk to you.” Linda’s hand as she picked upthe

food paused.

“What? “Natalie suddenly froze and looked at Linda.

“You usually don’t like to talk about what you have done and just silently do things for others. This is not

good.”

“Unlike some people who have never done anything for their family, they dare to criticize you for notdoing

anything.”

It is obvious who is being targeted in Linda’s words.

Niki immediately understood Linda’s meaning, and her face turned red. At this moment, she onlywanted to replace a underground hole to drill in.

Previously, she confidently stated that she knew Philip and could help the Graham family obtainauthorization. Now this situation clearly shows that Philip is not familiar with her at all, and theauthorization is even more impossible for her to get.

Niki only felt her lips dry, and she didn’t know whether she should stand or sit at this moment.

“Take a seat.” a deep male voice carne to her ear, with a faint tone and no emotion in his words.

She turned her head to look at Julian, and the man’s face was as calm as a peaceful lake. Niki quicklynodded, and in the current situation, she could only say yes.

Then Niki sat down, took a moment to relax, and then picked up a glass to suppress herembarrassment. But

her gaze inadvertently swept over Natalie.

Natalie looked at her.

Niki suddenly had a thought in her heart, and she suddenly spoke out, “Natalie, give me yourtestimony! You are the clearest about what happened that day.”

Natalie raised her eyebrows when she heard the words.

“That day, I made a video call to Philip in front of you. With just one word, he let you become the staff ofthe Glory group, right? “Niki now likes a drowning person trying to catch a floating object, her voice veryurgent.

Natalie didn’t speak.

“Philip always treats me like his own sister. Did you hear what he said when he called? He called mynickname as soon as he answered the phone, didn’t you hear it very clearly?”

Julian looked at Natalie with expressionless eyes, and even Linda and Grandpa Graham looked at her.

Natalie looked directly at Niki, she was smiling and her eyebrows and eyes slightly curved, clearly in agood

mood.

She just smiled like that and didn’t say a word.

At this moment, her expression was filled with sarcasm in Niki’s eyes. She clenched her fists and said,“Say

something!”

“Tell everyone that I’m not lying, I really know Philip very well.”

Natalie clearly saw the anger and even hatred in Niki’s eyes.

However, she didn’t care. It was inevitable that Niki would become angry with embarrassment. As forhatred, even if she didn’t do anything, Niki would still hate her. Moreover, she had already remindedNiki, and she explained it to her very clearly, making her even more unashamed.

Niki looked at Natalie angrily and said, “Why aren’t you speaking? Are you trying to humiliate me andlet everyone laugh at me?”

Natalie blinked and finally spoke, “Are you familiar with Philip? Do you really believe it yourself?”

“Don’t change the topic! You just need to tell everyone that this is true! I didn’t deceive everyone, nordid I

show off…”

Suddenly, Niki noticed something wrong. She looked at the mockery in Natalie’s eyes and realized it.

How could Philip refuse her? That day, Philip’s performance was completely showing his interest to her,

whether it was words, eyes, or expressions, perfectly expressing the care in his heart.

But Philip today is completely different from him that day.

What is the difference between that day and today? The obvious difference lies entirely in the fact thatNatalie was there that day, while Natalie did not appear on camera today.

It can’t be true??! Niki’s heart was shaken by this thought, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

Niki couldn’t help but look up at Natalie, her large grape like eyes staring tightly at the woman,appearing

somewhat terrifying.

That Nana, was for Natalie? With this speculation, Niki couldn’t help but think of the scene when shemade the video call that day. Philip’s gaze… seemed to be also glancing back? Instead of looking ather.

So Natalie already knew all this? And waiting for her to make a fool of herself?! Niki only felt angry. Isshe

being played around by Natalie?

She exclaimed angrily, “So he was calling you’Nana’ at that time?”
