Night of Destiny (Anastasia Tillman)

“Due to the delay in administering immediate medical treatment, President Tillman has been declared comatose, and he might never wake up again.” Colin's eyes lit up at this. Knowing that the deal was sure to be risk-free, he happily reached for the agreement and the bank card while demanding, “I want two percent of the shares in Tillman Constructions after | see through the deal. This was the perfect opportunity for him to get rich, and he would be a fool to not seize it.

Alex had the authority to agree to this proposition, and he knew he had to. seeing as switching out the will was the most important part of the entire scheme. “Very well. In that case, we'll be on the sside from now on,” he replied, nodding.

Then, Colin went over to the safe and took out the old will Francis had made, then tore it into pieces in front of Alex.

Having done so, he slipped the new one into the safe.

A satisfied smile played on Alex's lips. At last, the will has been successfully switched. Now, Naomi and Erica stood to inherit sixty percent of Tillman Constructions; that translated to a good seven hundred million in assets and liquidity.

Meanwhile, over at Presgrave Hospital, Francis was sent into one of the check-up rooms to run several tests. Anastasia waited anxiously in the hallway with Rey, who stood behind her to keep her company while Elliot went back to the company to handle important work matters.

Would you like to sit down, Miss Tillman? Rey asked, looking at the woman with concern.

‘No, I'm fine, Anastasia muttered tiredly as she shook her head. She prayed furtively that the tests would show positive results.

Just then, a nurse stationed on this floor cup to them and said, “Miss Tillman, two of your family members have arrived and they're waiting outside the entrance. They're really anxious. Should | let them in?” Anastasia frowned. She didn’t have to ask to know that the ones throwing a fit outside the entrance were Naomi and Erica. She wanted Francis to have these tests done without interference, so she instructed the nurse, “Keep them outside and do not let them in.” “Very well.” The nurse had only just walked away when Anastasia turned to address Rey, “Could y d you go with the nurse and see what's the fuss about?” “Of course. I'll get right to it, he agreed and hurried toward the elevators.

Naomi’s aversion toward Presgrave Hospital isn’t just because of my relationship with the Presgraves. What is she so afraid of? Is she worried that Dad will receive better medical treatment here? Anastasia wondered grimly.

Presently, Naomi and Erica were arguing with the security guards in the Presgrave Hospital lobby.

“I'm warning you-if | don’t see my husband by the end of the day, I'll have this hospital torn down!” Naomi threatened at the top of her lungs.

The security guards eyed her steadily.

completely unaffected. They highly doubted that the likes of her had the power to demolish the Presgraves’ hospital building.

“Hand my father over right now or I'll sue every single one of you! I'll expose you for being accomplices to a kidnapping crime!” Erica had unfortunately her mother’s affinity for tics and somehow associated volwith intimidation.

“I'm sorry, but this is a private hospital, and I'm afraid you can't just have your way. You are not allowed to enter until further instructions say otherwise.” “My husband is in there right now! Why am | not allowed in?! | bet that scheming little wench Anastasia put you up to this, didn’t she? Tell her | demand to see her this instant! Go!” Naomi ordered scathingly, her voice shrill as she shoved the sturdy-looking guard in front of her.

At that moment, Rey drew close to the scene of the fiasco. Recognizing him at once, Naomi barked, “You're Elliot's assistant, aren’t you? Bring Anastasia out right now!” “Miss Tillman is currently with President Tillman while the doctors run the necessary tests on him. Please refrain from causing a scene here,” Rey pointed out sternly, frowning.

“She has no right to transfer my husband here! I'll make her pay if anything happens to him.” “That's right! If my father’s condition worsens after this, it'll be all her fault,” Erica chimed in hotly Rey raised a brow and said with forced patience, ‘I assthat both of you are unaware that Presgrave Hospital has the top-of- the-line facilities and the finest medical team, which will be of great help to President Tillman’s condition and subsequent recovery. There is absolutely nothing for you to worry about, Rey explained.

However, Naomi panicked even more when she heard this. It was precisely because she knew about Presgrave Hospital's advanced facilities and world class medical team that she did not want Francis to be here.

“You don’t even know what Anastasia is plotting! She's only after her father’s company, and no one else wants him to die more than she does! | don't feel safe leaving my husband in her hands. She's: up to something, and trustwhen | say it's nothing good!” Naomi snapped belligerently.

Upon hearing this, Rey grew grim and countered, “Mrs. Tillman, | suggest you refrain from casting aspersions on Miss Tillman's character. She will be Mrs. Presgrave soon, and she is President Tillman's daughter. | can assure you that she bears no ill will toward him.”
