Chapter 181
Gillian was aware that her behavior had been somewhat unreasonable.
It wasn’t proper to invite herself to stay in someone else’s home.
But she really couldn’t wait any longer. She had to see Gabriel as soon as possible and get the various
supporting documents from the FDA before the banquet.
Gillian was already prepared to be glared at by Lindy.
However, the strange thing was that…
Lindy didn’t say anything.
Although she appeared slightly displeased, she continued to be as warmly accommodating as possible.
She accompanied them for almost the entire day, and she even had lunch with them. Only when it was
almost evening did she leave for a while, saying that she had an appointment with Anthony.
When she left, she even prepared a guest room for them to take a rest. She repeatedly instructed the
butler to take good care of their guests, emphasizing not to show any neglect.
After sitting and waiting for an entire day, Gillian was a bit tired, so she did not refuse Lindy’s kindness
and followed the butler to the guest room upstairs to rest.
As soon as she entered the house, she sat on the sofa and rubbed her temples. She looked
exhausted.
Healix and Lindsay also came into the room.
After the butler left and the door closed, Lindsay immediately pounced on the bed, snorted, and asked,
“How long are we going to wait?”
She even admired herself for not touching her phone or the internet all day, sitting patiently in the
downstairs living room.
How boring!
Gillian’s eyes were also filled with worry.
Before she came, she was quite confident. However, after sitting downstairs all day, she had lost her
patience.
If Gabriel deliberately intended to avoid her, she wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. She couldn’t
just stay at the residence forever.

There were thousands of thoughts in her mind, and she was at a loss. For a moment, she had no idea
what to do, so she looked up at Healix. Healix’s expression was now much better than before, no
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlonger as somber.
He saw Gillian look over.
Healix said, “Don’t worry too much. We should be able to see Gabriel.”
Gillian’s eyes lit up, and she subconsciously leaned forward. “You have a solution?”
“It’s not that I have come up with a solution.” Healix pondered for a moment and said, “It’s about Lindy’s
attitude.”
He subtly reminded her of Lindy’s meticulous care.
As Gillian listened to him, her eyes became brighter and brighter.
So, it wasn’t her imagination.
Lindy was genuinely treating her with respect.
Gillian couldn’t help but feel smug in her heart. After managing the Smith family for so long, this was
the first time she truly felt what it was like to be the head of the family.
She raised her chin slightly, looking proud and smug. For a moment, she felt proud and elated.
Previously, she could have only watched her grandfather take Olivia to meet those prominent figures,
seeing those influential individuals praise and admire Olivia.
Now, she could finally stand in the spotlight, the center of attention, cherished and respected by others.
At the thought of this, Gillian was lost in her mind.
Lindsay called her a few times before she came back to her senses.
“What are you thinking about?” Lindsay was dissatisfied. “I’ve called you a few times.”
“What’s the matter?” Gillian was rather annoyed that her imagination was interrupted, so her tone was
a bit cold.
After taking over the Smith family for a long time, she gradually became impatient with Lindsay. She no
longer just went along with her as she initially had done.
Lindsay didn’t think so far ahead, and she was still in high spirits. “The

butler said we can go out for a walk. I’ve heard that the family has a small garden designed after Les
Jardins de la Roagny, and it is beautiful. Shall we go for a stroll?”
Gillian had a sour expression.
At that moment, she was very tired and did not want to move.
However, when she looked up at the calm Healix, she still stood up.
Now was not the time to act like the boss, for she needed to completely take over the family and
elevate it to new heights.
Till then…
Gillian narrowed her eyes, and a hint of pleasure flashed across them.
At that time, no one would be able to force her to do anything.
Gillian and Lindsay strolled around the Patterson family’s house together.
Lindsay looked around, curious about everything.
“Let’s go over there.” She pointed. “I heard that the Patterson family has a herb garden. It was specially
made for their son.”
Gillian didn’t know much about this, so she asked, “Does their son like traditional medicine, too?”
Lindsay shook her head. “No, my grandfather mentioned that Anthony, their son, has weak health, born
with frailty. He has been taking a lot of medication.”
“Weak health, you say,” Gillian lowered her gaze and elongated her tone as if there was more to it.
If Gabriel was clever, he would willingly help by contacting the FDA for the necessary documentation
related to the medication.
When the thing was done, she could reward him.
She had already found the Smith family’s miraculous treatments manual, but she had been too busy
recently to learn it.
After this period of time, when she was free, she would definitely study the acupuncture manual
carefully.
At that time, she would learn the Smith family’s miraculous treatments. She could treat Anthony.
The two of them did not slow down and quickly arrived at the herb garden.

Lindsay took out her phone and took quite a lot of photos.
Seeing this, the servant behind her wanted to stop her, but when she looked at Gillian and thought of
what Lindy had specially instructed, she did not say anything.
A private garden like this did not allow visitors to take photos.
The owner valued privacy and did not want the photos to be leaked.
Gillian had long noticed the servant’s hesitation.
However, she did not say anything and did not stop Lindsay.
She thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being adored and having privileges.
She was the only one who could do what no one else could.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as he stepped into the herb garden, the first thing she saw was a large field of various
medicinal herbs that were growing well.
After all, Gillian had been learning Chinese medicine from Isaac since she was young. Although she
had transferred to pediatrics, she still had a special affection for traditional medicine.
She looked around and was about to check the Angelica herbs.
The Angelica herbs in the medicinal garden looked remarkably good.
Just as she took a step forward, she saw a familiar slender back.
Her pupils contracted intensely, and she clutched her phone tightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Why was Olivia here?
After Gillian saw Olivia, the first thought that came to her mind was that she was here to cause trouble
and prevent her from getting the drug identification document.
However, she quickly dismissed the idea.
Impossible, impossible. The matter of the life–saving pill was very confidential. Only Healix, Lindsay,
and herself knew about it. Even Jarron did not know.
It was impossible for Olivia to know about this.
If it wasn’t because of the life–saving pill, then what was she doing here?
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Gillian’s mind.
Olivia came to the herb garden to find some fresh medicinal herbs.

In recent days, Anthony’s health had been steadily improving, and there was no need for old and
potent medicinal herbs.
Younger ones would suffice, preferably fresh ones.
Worried that the servants could not recognize the herbs and deal with them, she came over herself.
The Gastrodia elata in the garden was quite good. Olivia bent down, planning to pick a couple.
Her fingertips had just touched the Gastrodia elata.
A sharp and cold voice exploded in his ears. “Olivia, what are you doing?”
It was Gillian.
She furrowed her brow, and there was unapologetic disgust in her eyes as if Olivia were committing a
disgraceful act. “How can you just touch someone else’s things? If you don’t mind being a disgrace, I
do mind, you know?” she shouted.
