Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 712

Chapter 712

“What happened to Great-Grandma?” Jared asked with wide eyes.

“It’s nothing. She just went somewhere very far away.” After Nigel finished speaking, he kissed Jared

on the forehead and said, “Off to the classroom you go.”

Jared gave him a hug before he entered the classroom.

Subsequently, Nigel got up and let out a breath, then wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes

before he headed to the hospital.

In a villa, Lorelai’s father, Liam Presgrave, breathed a sigh of relief. “She’s finally gone. I’ve been

waiting for this day for too long.”

“Dad, even if Old Madam Presgrave is gone, Anastasia is not easy to deal with.” Lorelai had personally

experienced how powerful Anastasia was.

“What are you afraid of? She’s an inexperienced young woman. She doesn’t pose a threat to us.” Liam

chided with a look of disapproval before he continued happily, “In the future, we’ll definitely be able to

get our share in Presgrave Corporation. Maybe we can even get the chance to inherit the company

with your help.”

“Dad, how is it possible? How could we own the company?”

“If you get pregnant with Elliot’s child, it’s possible.”

“I…” Lorelai’s eyes turned disappointed. “He only has Anastasia in his heart now.”

“Who said that there is only one way to get pregnant? I heard that Elliot has saved something in

Presgrave Hospital from back then as a back up plan by Old Madam Presgrave.”

A blush flushed across Lorelai’s face. “Dad, do you mean I have to…”

“As long as you get pregnant with his seed in your stomach, he will have no choice but to acknowledge

the child after it’s born.” Liam had already planned everything, but Harriet had to be dead for his plan to

be implemented.

Lorelai’s breathing quickened slightly. Did she really have to treat Elliot in such a despicable way?

However, when she thought of the way Anastasia had threatened her earlier, she still felt furious. In her

opinion, if her father hadn’t stopped her, she would have returned home to chase after Elliot a long time

ago. Then, he might’ve even fallen for her first as she had investigated that after Anastasia became

pregnant with his child five years ago, there were no interactions between the two. It was Harriet who

forced Elliot to marry her. At first, Elliot had rejected Anastasia. Therefore, she had always thought that

she had just lost the opportunity, not that she was inferior to Anastasia.

“However, we’re not the only ones who are eyeing Presgrave Corporation. Nolan is the same. He

wants to gain more assets for his children and grandchildren. Hmph! In that case, let’s have a

showdown!”

Lorelai curled her lips into a smile. “They wouldn’t be able to do something like what you’d just told me.”

“Of course. They’re still related by blood, while we’re not related to the Presgrave Family at all.”

“Dad, I won’t let you down,” Lorelai promised.

She had also discovered now that without a strong backing to support her, she would only live an

ordinary life, and it was only if she had someone like Elliot backing her could she shine.

In the hospital, Elliot was busy handling the affairs of Harriet personally, while Brenda assisted him.

Anastasia was sent to the lounge to rest, and Sophia had prepared some light snacks while waiting for

her.

“President Tillman, you haven’t eaten yet, right? Why don’t you have something to eat first?”

Sophia looked at Anastasia with a pained expression. Because of her grief, she looked like a different

person from yesterday. Her eyes were red, her hair was slightly messy, and her skin was pale.

“I don’t feel like eating. Take it away.” Anastasia shook her head.

Sophia persuaded softly, “President Tillman, everyone is sad because of Old Madam Presgrave’s

passing, but you still have to cheer up and take care of others. We can’t have you going down right

now. You still have your children to take care of, and you have to help President Presgrave arrange the

funeral. You need to eat.”

Anastasia’s emotions were very fragile at the moment, and she needed someone to get her out of her

slump. Sophia’s words undoubtedly gave her strength. She glanced at her gratefully and said, “Thank

you, Sophia, you’re right.”

She couldn’t let anything else happen to her and give everyone more trouble.
