The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Why Nathalie Quinlan Would Have a Citibank Black Card

The fact that the old man in the family underwent surgery was something Raymond Wilmar kept hidden from everyone!

It was only during the surgery, when complications arose, that Raymond notified him.

Lowie Wilmar hurriedly made a phone call to Nathalie Quinlan.

This is how it all went down.

Raymond knew very well why he wanted to have the old man undergo brain tumor removal surgery—it was nothing more than wanting the old man to live a couple more years, at least long enough until Jecksen Wilmar was released from prison, solidifying the old man’s status both in the Wilmar Family and within the social circle.

However, Nathalie had been very clear about it at the time: the old man had a malignant tumor in his brain.

If that tumor wasn’t surgically removed, the old man was essentially just buying time. At most, he could drag it out for three years.

Three years weren’t nearly enough for Jecksen to be released from prison.

Raymond never gave up and persisted in wanting the old man to have surgery to remove the malignant tumor.

This time, it was unclear whether the old man had agreed or if Raymond had pulled some strings to make it happen.

At this moment, Yonathan Wilmar wasn’t focused on dwelling on those details; he only cared about the old man’s current physical condition. His expression grew dark, and he placed all his hope on Nathalie Quinlan, speaking earnestly: ”Ms. Quinlan, I must entrust my father to you this time too!”

Nathalie simply replied: ”I’m friends with Lowie, and his grandfather is also an elder in my life. Uncle, it’s not as dire as you make it sound. I will do my best.”

Yonathan gazed at her, letting out a breath of relief and speaking sincerely, ”I owe you two favors now. In the future, if you need help with anything, I’ll make sure there’s no hesitation!”

Nathalie didn’t continue to exchange pleasantries with him. She narrowed her eyes slightly and said, ”Uncle Wilmar, I need a quiet environment. Aside from the medical staff of the provincial hospital, I’d like everyone else to step outside temporarily. Can you arrange that?”

”No problem, I’ll arrange it right away.” Yonathan agreed instantly.

”Good.” Nathalie nodded and, without wasting any words, seemed to have a strong familiarity with the hospital’s internal layout as she walked directly toward an office outside the operating room: ”I’m going to change into surgical attire.”

Before she entered, it seemed she remembered that Mr. Zachmann and Stanley Zachmann were also present. She turned back and said to them, ”Grandpa, Dad, please wait for me here. I’ll be performing surgery, and it should take about two hours.”

When she said this, Nathalie paused for a moment and seemed unsure: ”The time isn’t guaranteed. If you have other matters to attend to, feel free to leave—you don’t have to wait for me.”

Stanley watched her as she changed into surgical attire, his gaze fixed on her pale face underneath the surgical cap. His eyes showed only guilt, devoid of any other emotions. He didn’t ask anything and simply said, ”It’s fine, Dad will wait for you.”

The situation with Mr. Wilmar was critical. As Adelle Wafford and a foreigner came out of the operating room, Nathalie seemed like she wanted to say something but found herself without time. She nodded and quickly entered.

It wasn’t until she went in that Mr. Zachmann stood there, his mouth slightly agape in astonishment, muttering under his breath, ”What’s going on with Nathalie? Last time, she treated Mr. Wilmar too? But didn’t Caryn say it was her tutor...”

Back when Mr. Wilmar suffered a stroke, Caryn Zachmann had come home and told them that it was entirely thanks to Adelle’s skill that Mr. Wilmar had been pulled back from the brink of paralysis.

Listening to what Yonathan said just now, it seemed the person who truly brought Mr. Wilmar back from the edge of paralysis wasn’t Adelle, but—Nathalie?!

Mr. Zachmann couldn’t help but recall the recent rumors in Beijing about the God Doctor of McKinney.

Word had it that McKinney had an incredibly skilled doctor who had a peculiar temper, was enigmatic, and rarely socialized with outsiders. Both the disabled leg of the Yancey Family’s young ancestor and Mr. Wilmar were treated by the mysterious God Doctor of McKinney.

So...

Mr. Zachmann suddenly connected the dots, realizing why Nathalie had a black card from Citibank.
