Chapter 515
Night of Destiny
After carefully examining the will handed to him by Anastasia, Mr. Brown said with a stern expression,
âOn the surface, there doesnât seem to be any problems with the will. However, we would need your
father to confirm its validity.
Anastasia knew that her father was the only one who knew the real content of the will, as even her
fatherâs lawyer had taken Naomiâs side.
Presgrave Hospital.
Afraid that Anastasia had suffered grievances, Elliot, who was waiting for Anastasiaâs return, immediately
dragged her into a quiet lounge the moment he saw her. âTell me, did they give you a hard time?â he
asked with his gaze on her.
Anastasia calmly filled Elliot in regarding the content of her fatherâs will.
Elliot narrowed his eyes, his gaze chilly. âAre you just going to let your fatherâs
company fall into that womanâs hand? Should I start making some moves myself?â
However, Anastasia shook her head. âI know how to deal with them. Iâll make sure that they pay the price
they fully deserve.â Her eyes tinged with sorrow before she changed the topic. âHowâs my father?â
âHis vitals are still stable so far.â
Immediately, the grief in her eyes turned into hatred. âOne is my fatherâs wife, and the other his daughter.
They actually did something this despicable just so they could have my fatherâs company. I assumed
they knew my father was going to let me inherit the company, so they decided to do something like this to
him. If only I knew this would happen. I wouldâve refused to go help out at the company back then. At the
very least, my father would still be safe.â
âDo not take their faults as your own. You are innocent in this.â Elliot assured her.
Looking at her exhausted pale face, he
immediately wrapped his arms around
her. âRest for a little while in my arms.â
Anastasia leaned against his chest. âHave
you sent Jared back?â
âYeah. He was very willing to go to the Presgrave Residence.â
âIâm glad to hear that.â Anastasia felt grateful that the Presgrave Family had given her son a place to live.
2:00 PM in the afternoon. Naomi and her daughter arrived at the lobby of Presgrave Hospital. This time,
they were being led by one of the nurses to the hospital ward after going through the proper registration
process. âAs expected, this place is something else,â Naomi muttered as her eyes wandered the
spacious and upscale interior of the hospital, which looked just like a luxurious hotel.
âMom, that manâs in there.â Erica looked through the window at Francis who was
in the ICU. Furthermore, she no longer
addressed him as her father. It was clear
that any filial piety she had for her father
was long gone.
âHow about taking a rest inside here for
now? We will consult the doctors first
before making the arrangements for you
two to enter the ward later,â the nurse
explained
Alright. They then entered the lounge room.
On the way out, the nurse intentionally left the door slightly open. Just as Naomi and Erica were about to
sit down and have their cup of tea, they heard a female voice coming from outside their room. âDr. Jones,
since my father just had a checkup this morning, can you explain to me in detail regarding my fatherâs
condition?â
Noticing the female voice belonged to
Anastasia, the mother-daughter pair
made eye contact with one another
before they quietly went closer to the
door to eavesdrop on the conversation.
âMiss Tillman, we have good news for you. Weâve just introduced the most advanced international brain
scanner and medicine in our hospital. Weâll be able to effectively treat your fatherâs condition for him to
regain consciousness as soon as possible now.
âReally? Thatâs great news! Does that mean thereâs a possibility that my dad will wake up?â
âVery much so. If there arenât any
problems, he may even regain
consciousness by next week, the doctor
said confidently.
âThank you very much, Dr. Jones. You
really are the global leading neurology
specialist.
âHehe. You are just too kind, Miss
Tillman. Since Mr. Tillman is Young
Master Elliotâs future father-in-law, how
can we not put our utmost effort into
treating him? We will definitely do
everything we can to save your father.â
Thank you, Dr. Jones. However, can I ask you for a favor? Later, two of my family members will be
visiting my father. Can you please refrain from telling them the news about my father regaining
consciousness?â
âWhy?â Dr. Jones was puzzled.
âRegardless, please do me a favor, as this is my family matter.â
âAlright. Iâll do as you say.â
The two of them continued their conversation while gradually walking away from the room. Behind the
slightly opened door, the mother-daughter pair were looking at each other in disbelief, as they could not
believe the possibility of Francis waking up. Not to mention, he would wake up next week at the earliest.
