Gillian spoke casually on the phone, but as soon as she hung up, she immediately fell onto the sofa.
Her body curled up into a ball, and her shoulders trembled slightly.
“Grandpa…”
After a while, she turned to look at Isaac lying on the bed.
Her tone was serious and firm. “Grandpa, I won’t disappoint you. The Smith family will be more glorious
in my hands, and strive higher!”
That was the only way to make up for her guilt toward her grandfather and make her feel better.
After being in a daze for a while, she received a call from Tracy.
Gillian immediately sat up straight. There was a gentle expression on her face as he said softly, “Tracy.”
Compared to Gillian’s gentleness, Tracy’s tone was unconcealable anger. “Where’s the prescription?
Where’s the prescription?”
After questioning her three times, Tracy’s tone softened. She seemed to realize that her attitude just
now was too much, so she eased up and said, “I’m sorry, my attitude was bad, but it’s been so long.
Why hasn’t the prescription been brought over?”
Gillian comforted, “Don’t be anxious.”
“Why aren’t you in a hurry?” Tracy’s tone became anxious. “How long has it been? Ten days ago, you
said that you would give me the prescription. You said you had just taken over the Smith family and
wanted to smooth out Mr. Smith’s things. Once you found the prescription, you would immediately give
it to me. Why haven’t you found it after ten days?”
Could it be that this prescription was hidden underground?
Gillian sighed softly. “I know you’re anxious, but Grandpa fell too quickly and didn’t have time to explain
many things. Moreover, the prescription is the Smith family’s treasure. It can’t be placed everywhere.
Tracy, you have to give me some time.”
Tracy forcefully suppressed her frustration and softened her voice. “I’m not rushing you, but seared
salmon with herbed couscous is the Smith Cuisine Hall’s specialty. How can a restaurant operate
without its specialty? I know you’re busy here, but you have to understand my difficulties.”

Gillian nodded. “I understand. Tracy, don’t worry. I’ll find the prescription first and send it to you
immediately after I find it.”
Satisfied, Tracy chuckled. “That’s great. At that time, our the Smith Cuisine Hall will have more than
one signature dish.”
There was a hidden meaning in her words.
“Don’t worry. There are so many recipes for the Smith family. Not to mention a signature dish, there are
even five or ten recipes.” After saying that, Gillian thought momentarily and decided to reassure Tracy
about the prescription. “I’ll remember your support. If you have anything in the future, tell me.”
Tracy was pleased. “It’s because you’re capable. Mr. Smith fell so quickly. Who else would the Smith
family hand over to, if not the two of you? Olivia is young and hasn’t studied medicine. She is not
capable enough. I’m definitely on your and Jarron’s side.”
After that, Gillian received a call from Healix Pharmaceuticals’s CEO, Healix. He still wanted the
prescription.
After Gillian comforted him, she promised to contact him as soon as she found the prescription.
After hanging up the call, Healix frowned. He was not as optimistic as Tracy. Instead, he had many
concerns upon hearing Gillian’s answer.
Lindsay leaned against his grandfather and asked curiously, “Grandpa, what’s wrong? Are you worried
that Gillian won’t keep her word?”
Healix shook his head. “I don’t think highly of her.” After all, he was the CEO of a pharmaceutical
company. He thought deeper. In his opinion, Gillian was too shallow. Be it medical skills or how she
handled things, she was far inferior to Mr. Smith.
If the Smith family was handed over to her, could it really be brought to greater heights?
As for Olivia, he did not know much about her. However, since Isaac was willing to hand the Smith
family over to her, it meant that she was capable.
Healix trusted Isaac’s judgment.
“Isn’t there still Jarron?” Lindsay did not mind. “No matter what, he is better than Olivia.”
As she spoke, she pouted unhappily. She was still bearing grudges against Olivia.

Seeing his granddaughter like this, Healix shook his head and swallowed the words on the tip of his
tongue.
At this point, there was no point in saying anything more. He could only
persevere.
At the hospital, after Gillian received two calls, she did not have time to feel guilty. She wanted to go
home immediately to find the prescription. Over the past few days, she had already searched the entire
house. She had searched everywhere she could think of, but she did not see a single prescription.
Olivia was about to return. If she could not find the Smith family’s prescription and stabilize the cunning
clansmen of the Smith family, things might change.
Yanis and Blake had high statuses in the Smith family. The other clansmen might be swayed if the two
of them firmly supported Olivia. Thinking of this, Gillian did not dare to delay for a moment. She turned
Isaac’s room upside down and even knocked on the walls inch by inch to prevent any hidden
compartments.
Unfortunately, she didn’t find anything.
Gillian sat on the sofa in disappointment. Her temples throbbed with pain.
She wondered, “Where did Grandpa hide the prescription?”
She got up and wanted to go to the kitchen for a glass of water. When she passed by Olivia’s room,
she suddenly stopped.
Could it be… She frowned and turned to push the door open.
Olivia’s room had been empty and covered in dust for a long time.
Gillian covered her nose and frowned as she looked around. Finally, her gaze landed on the bookshelf.
This bookshelf was very large. It had a wall and was filled with books. There were about a thousand
books.
Gillian searched for them one by one. She searched from dawn to dusk, but she found nothing. She sat
dejectedly on the bed, thinking she must have gone crazy.
Why would Olivia put such an important prescription on the bookshelf? It must be hidden in a secret
place. Grandpa’s room did not have a secret compartment. Perhaps Olivia’s room did.

rough, she accidentally knocked off the

pillow, revealing a crumpled notebook underneath.
Gillian frowned. What was this? A diary?
She reached over and took the notepad. On the cover were two cute kittens. It was obvious that they
had been bought at a stationery store. She casually flipped open a page and realized many yellowed
papers were inside.
This is… Gillian’s heart skipped a beat.
She had found it!
She had found the Smith family prescriptions!
Such an important prescription was actually casually sandwiched in the notebook and placed under the
pillow.
On one hand, Gillian was pleasantly surprised to find the ancient prescription, but on the other hand,
she felt that it was unfair. Her grandfather had actually given Olivia such an important prescription a few
years ago and it was even randomly left behind.
Previously, she had hinted to him several times that she wanted to look at the prescriptions, but
Grandpa always avoided the topic and said that it was useless to look at these prescriptions.
Gillian’s heart ached, and she was unwilling to accept this. If Grandpa refused to give it to her, she
would take it herself.
She didn’t believe that she couldn’t do what Olivia could do. She knew she was better.
If Olivia could create seared salmon with herbed couscous based on the Smith family recipes, so could
she. Moreover, she wanted to be more outstanding than Olivia in every aspect.
With these recipes, she could create a health–nourishing medicinal cuisine and use the Smith Cuisine
Hall to increase the Smith family’s reputation. She could also use Healix Pharmaceuticals to produce
better medicines than precious pills.
The enthusiasm in Gillian’s heart burned as if she had foreseen a beautiful and glorious future ahead of
her.
