Who's the Substitute Now? Chapter 375
Natalie's irritation vanished instantly. She asked, "Does he actually possess the Sullivan family's secret remedy?"Glancing at Daniel, who was standing next to Mark, she observed that he didn't resemble the Sullivans at all. From her perspective, there was no one like him among the Sullivans.She met his eyes.Having honed his social skills over many years, Daniel was adept at reading people's thoughts. With a glance at Natalie's expression, he discerned her lack of trust in him.Disregarding her, he proceeded toward the ICU and saw Philip lying in bed through the glass window. He wouldn't have come if it hadn't been for Natasha, even if the Graysons pleaded with him."What do you think you're doing?" Natalie found Daniel's actions rude. She silently cursed Mark for bringing questionable characters to the hospital. She was already irritated enough.Glancing back at Natalie, Daniel shook his head inwardly.While he didn't recognize Natalie, her presence here must be linked to th

The Grayson family did a good job of keeping Philip's illness a secret. Only a select few people who were close to the Graysons were aware of it."Yeah," Mark agreed. "I thought it was odd, too, and I didn't believe he could cure Mr. Grayson Senior. So, I just told him straight up that Mr. Grayson Senior's illness isn't something that just anyone can cure."I mentioned that only the Sullivan family's secret remedy could help him. Then, the guy surprised me by saying he had the secret remedy with him."So, Mark wasted no time and took Daniel straight to the ICU."People typically wouldn't dare to lie to the Graysons. So, he must be telling the truth," Mark stated confidently.Natalie's impatience softened a bit. Mark's logic rang true. Nobody would dare to deceive the Graysons considering their influence in Oceanville.Furthermore, Natalie realized she had to seize this opportunity now.She pursed her lips and slowly approached Daniel. "Sir, how should I address you?"Daniel gla

"I never thought the Sullivans would be this generous. When they found out Grandpa Philip was sick and needed their family's secret remedy, they quickly sent someone over with it."My uncle even offered to come, but I didn't want to bother him, so I declined," Natalie explained softly."Has the person made it to the hospital?" Joshua asked with concern."Yeah, he's already here. He's getting ready to help Grandpa Philip.""I'll go there right away," Joshua said firmly.His pen stopped suddenly on the document as he became overwhelmed with emotions. The ink from his pen spread out in circular patterns on the paper."Thank you, Natalie," added Joshua."It was my pleasure to help," Natalie responded cheerfully.She stood outside the ICU door with a radiant smile. Daniel's unexpected arrival brightened her mood. Any irritation she had felt earlier was replaced by contentment.Daniel changed into a white surgical gown and put on a mask. His actions made Natalie see him in a new lig

He lifted his gaze to see Natalie's flattering smile. Her smile was so wide that her big eyes squinted."Mr. Sullivan, I came in to help you."Daniel scanned Natalie from top to bottom. How dare she enter the ICU when she wasn't even wearing protective clothing?Waving her away, he said, "No thanks. I can manage on my own.""Let me help you. It's always easier with someone's help rather than doing it alone."After all, he was a member of the Sullivan family. She wouldn't normally even get a chance to see them. Since she could finally meet them, she had to seize the opportunity to leave a good impression.Even if he wouldn't remember her, at least they could get a little closer.Patiently, he repeated, "No thanks."With that, he slammed the door shut and approached Philip, who was lying on the hospital bed.It all happened so suddenly that Natalie couldn't even retract her smile in time. She awkwardly headed to the room's window, silently watching Daniel's every move.Daniel o

Joshua lowered his gaze. Standing by the window, he watched the man inside intently.As Joshua had walked too quickly, Terry couldn't keep up with him.Arriving late, he panted as he climbed up the stairs. Perhaps because he made too much noise or because it was too quiet, Natalie turned to glare at him.Noticing Natalie's gaze, Terry awkwardly and self-consciously stood in a corner, trying to make himself as small as possible.Natalie withdrew her gaze. Although she didn't know why Joshua suddenly withdrew his hand before touching her face, she composed herself and approached him."Josh—"Before she could complete her sentence, Joshua turned away, interrupting her. "What's the doctor's name?"Having received such a big favor from the Sullivan family, he definitely needed to show his gratitude.In the face of that question, Natalie blinked, a hint of discomfort crossing her face.Why would she know his name? She only knew his surname was Sullivan. She didn't know anything else

Although Mark didn't complete his sentence, Natalie knew what he meant.Following his lead, she quickly added, "Yes, Josh. We still need to respect the Sullivan family's practices. My family members don't like revealing our names."If I were to reveal his name to you, I'm afraid Dr. Sullivan wouldn't be pleased when he comes out of the room. I'm sure Grandpa wouldn't want to upset his lifesaver." Natalie stared at him earnestly.Joshua didn't say anything in response to that. His expression shifted subtly.It was hard to tell whether he believed Natalie's words or not.Taking advantage of Joshua's silence, Natalie cast a subtle glance in Mark's direction, indicating for him to leave.His words had temporarily rescued her from an awkward situation. However, it would be better if no one knew she was acquainted with Mark. In fact, she was rather upset that Mark had spoken impulsively.Suddenly, the flashing red light turned off, and noises could be heard from the ICU."Is the su

Daniel tucked the small wooden box into his pocket. While the box wasn't large, it caused a noticeable bulge in his pocket. Placing the clothes he had worn during the surgery on the chair Natalie had brought him, he cast a stoic glance at Natalie.Natalie opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out. Since he was about to leave, Philip must have been treated. It would be advantageous to her for Daniel to leave now.If Joshua asked any questions, she could easily make up some lies without him around. After all, no one would be able to expose her.Without sparing Joshua a glance, Daniel simply walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.Just as he was about to leave, Joshua called out to him. "Dr. Sullivan."Although his voice carried no emotions, one could tell what he was trying to convey.Upon hearing that, Natalie had a bad feeling. She hurriedly stepped forward, grabbing Joshua's arm."Josh, Dr. Sullivan is like that. Don't stoop to his level. He mu

Terry led the ground, carrying two embroidered oak chests in his arms. Behind him, others carried medicinal herbs, coffee beans, diamonds, and gold.It was a dazzling array that seemed to have everything under the earth.Natalie stood there, feeling dumbfounded at the sight of the grand display.Wasn't Joshua being too generous for preparing so much just to thank him?Terry stopped in front of Daniel, holding the gifts out for him. Joshua gestured and said, "Open them."The oak chests opened to reveal smooth, red velvet lining inside. There were several medicinal herbs inside, too.The second box also contained medicinal herbs. On top of that, there was a delicate card that contained a handwritten thank you note.Daniel glanced at these two wooden boxes, before taking a look at the items carried by the people behind Terry.As if he found it amusing, he began to laugh heartily. His entire body shuddered as he did it."Are you trying to get rid of a beggar with these?"Hearing
