Chapter 2040
After a while, Martin looked at Nicole and said, "You tried to treat yourself."
"I''ve seen some doctors and I''ve tried to do it myself too."
Even though she had no idea how she knew about medicine, she was very well aware that she had
some capabilities in that field.
"Even Ghost Hand could not cure this. It is indeed difficult to deal with. I''ve recorded your condition and
I''ll start studying itter," Martin replied, not sounding very surprised by his inability to cure Nicole.
He had already expected this when Jared informed him about Nicole''s condition, but he agreed to help
her out anyway. Perhaps he believed that he would eventually find a solution by working together with
Nicole.
After all, he had high hopes in Nicole''s capabilities as Ghost Hand, along with the knowledge he had
gathered from working in the field for so many years.
"Sure," Nicole said without hesitating.
Even though she could not remember who Martin was, she still trusted Jared. The Riddle family had
hidden Nicole''s incident of memory loss from everyone else except a few close friends. The fact that
Jared had sought Martin''s help indicated that Martin could be depended on, and that he would not do
anything to hurt her.
As they stood up and left, Martin walked them to the door. He was about to say something to Nicole but
then, he felt as if he just could not get a word out of his mouth.
So, he gave up the idea and thought to himself, ''Getting to see her again is good enough, I guess.''
After Nicole and Jared had disappeared from his sight, he issued a sigh and retired into the mansion.
Once he was back inside, he leaned back on the couch and read Nicole''s examination report again.
Then, he furrowed his brow because her condition was indeed veryplicated to deal with.
Closing the report abruptly, he stood up and went to the study room upstairs. After that, he rummaged
through the huge bookshelf in the room and began to peruse a few of the ancient medical archives,
hoping to find a solution to aid Nicole.
On the other side, Jared was already on the road with Nicole.
"What''s Ghost Hand?" Nicole finally asked.
She became curious about it when Martin brought it up moments ago, but she had tried her best not to
ask. Now she had the opportunity to do so.
"Your medical skills were considered to be among the best in the world," Jared replied truthfully before
proceeding to tell her that she was once the apprentice of James Dade, a world-renowned doctor.
This left Nicole in a state of shock. ''Was I really that good?''
After she had lost her memories, she could only remember tiny bits of her medical knowledge, but she
had no idea how she had obtained them. She did not expect that she had such a prominent mentor
either.
"Why didn''t we call him? Perhaps he could help me." Nicole stated, her eyes sparkling with a glimmer
of hope.
Jared looked at Nicole with a wry face. "He has retired, and I''m afraid that you''re the only person who
can reach him."
Of course, he was referring to the old Nicole who had not lost her memories. Nicole did not even
remember who James Dade was, let alone know how to reach him.
The light on Nicole''s face faded as a sense of helplessness flooded her. She had no memories of
James at all. The hope that had just been built up waspletely torn down in an instant. She was
devastated.
"It''s fine. Your medical skills are still with you even though you can''t remember him. I''m sure that you
can work something out with Martin''s help," Jared encouraged.
Besides, they were in no rush to regain her memories, and because of that, they could just go with the
flow.
Soon after, the car came to a halt.
Nicole looked out of the window and saw a restaurant.
There, she could not help but blink in confusion. ''Aren''t we going home? Why are we here?''
N?velDrama.Org owns this.
"Everyone at home would already be done with dinner by the time we get back. Besides, they''d be
suspicious if we were to go home with empty stomachs," Jared exined to Nicole, as if he could read
her thoughts.
Then, he brought her out of the car.
