“Anastasia.” Erica stretched out her hand to pull her back, but Anastasia raised her hand in disgust.

“Don’t touch me,” she said scornfully.

Her gaze startled Erica, and she didn’t dare to touch her anymore. As she looked at Anastasia, all she felt was

resentment.

As Anastasia didn’t give them a chance, Elias felt that this was a tricky case as well. As he sorted out the

documents, he remarked, “Miss Erica, your mother’s case is not an easy one!”

“Please, Mr. Yale, you must help my mom and find a way to save her. I can give you all the money you need,” Erica

begged anxiously.

“Your mother’s side is very unfavorable, and your sister isn’t letting up at all. Now, the only way is to wake your

father as soon as possible and ask him to come forward to solve this matter. He and your mother have been

married for more than 20 years, so he might rescind the charges.”

A glimmer of hope flashed in Erica’s eyes at his words, but it was quickly replaced by panic. No, Francis would not

necessarily let them go if he woke up. After they changed his will and divided his company’s equity, and with the

evidence that her mother was harming him, what if he didn’t let them go? Therefore, Erica would rather Francis

never woke up from his coma.

“My dad may not wake up anymore, so let’s forget about this. You should come up with another plan!” After Erica

finished speaking, she decided to go and visit Francis.

Having received Anastasia’s orders, the nurses would not simply disclose Francis’ condition to outsiders. Hence,

even Erica did not know about the improvement in his condition. She stood in front of the bed and looked at his

face. Even though she had been raised by him for more than 20 years, she did not feel any trace of gratitude

toward him at all. From the fact that she dared to deal with Mrs. Garner, it was clear that she had already lost all

affection for him.

Erica left without staying for long and went straight to Tillman Constructions to see how the company was doing, as

Alex had told her that things were getting better. When she walked into his office and saw him signing some

documents, she leaned over and hugged him affectionately.

“Looks like you’re busy, Alex.”

“Yeah.” Alex placed the documents down and lifted his head to look at her. “What brings you here?”

“I was trying to beg Anastasia to let Mom go, but I didn’t expect her to be so determined to put Mom in jail. Alex,

what do you think I should do?” Erica asked in hopes of discussing this matter with him.

Alex didn’t care about Naomi at all and thought it was best for her to take all of the blame so that he and Erica

could live a comfortable life. “Erica. Anastasia has evidence of Mom’s crime with her. We can’t save her. If you have

the opportunity to see her, you should ask her not to wory and stay there for a few years. We’ll wait for her to

come out.”

“What? You want my mom to stay in jail for a few years?” His words startled Erica,

Seeing that being gentle wasn’t working, Alex could only speak harshly. “What else? If your mom doesn’t take the

blame for this crime, it’ll be over for all of us. Besides, it was her idea to murder your dad in the first place.”

Erica felt despair, but she couldn’t leave Alex. She truly envied Anastasia for being able to make a man like Elliot do

anything for her. On the other hand, why was the man she met so coldhearted?

“Erica, think about it. If your mom doesn’t take the blame, then you’ll be one of the culprits of the murder. At most,

I’m a foil, not the mastermind. But when your father fell into a coma, the mastermind had to be either you or your

mom, so if your mom doesn’t go to jail, it would be you. You’re still so young. Can you stand staying in prison?”

“But Mom…” Erica was about to rebuke when Alex spoke again.

“Your mom has had a good life for more than 20 years. She can survive it, but I feel sorry for you. You’re only 24

years old. You have a lot of time left instead of wasting your life away in that dark cell. If your mom loves you, she

will take the blame for you.”

Erica’s mind was inundated with fear at this point. She truly didn’t want to go to jail, to the point where she’d rather

take her own life. After all, it would drive her crazy.

“All right. I’ll be meeting Mom tomorrow. I… I’ll talk to her then.” In the end, Erica only cared about herself.
