Chapter 251 Lawrence Is Here

Francis stared at his daughter in bewilderment. “What?!”

“Remember the last time you asked me to accompany you to win the bid? With so many companies

competing, did you think your company was qualified to win such a big project? Elliot was there at the

time, and he was the one who told the organizers to let you win.” As she watched the dumbfounded

look on her father’s face, Anastasia could only say that her father’s shock was inevitable.

“Really? Has President Presgrave been helping me out secretly? No wonder business has been

smooth-sailing recently, making it seem like all the luck finally bestowed upon me. He’s the one who

has been quietly supporting me from behind!” Francis’ eyes were filled with gratitude right now. “Turns

out the Presgrave Family have long been compensating us!” he added.

“They didn’t just compensate your company; Old Madam Presgrave even approached me to offer

compensation, but I refused their kindness. I don’t think they should repay us, but when I found out

what they’ve been doing all along, Elliot was already helping you out big time.” Anastasia sounded

helpless.

Francis let out a loud sigh, and his feelings were mixed.

Naomi, who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping at the moment, was shocked to hear that

Elliot valued the Tillman Family so much; he even supported her husband’s business. Therefore, she

concluded that once Anastasia gave in and accepted their compensation, she would become

successful sooner or later.

How could all the good things go to Anastasia only? Since there was nothing else to eavesdrop on

anymore, Naomi knocked on the door and pretended to rush in, exclaiming, “Oops! I only remembered

that I left my bag here when I reached the car park!”

After saying that, she walked over to the cabinet beside the chair, grabbed her bag, and inquired in a

concerned tone, “Francis, is it really okay for me to leave you here?”

“I’ll be fine. You should go home!” Francis insisted.

“Rest well, alright? Call me if anything happens.” After saying that, she turned to Anastasia and

reminded the woman, “Take good care of your dad, okay? He has worked so hard for this family.”

However, Anastasia didn’t like to hear words like that coming out of Naomi’s mouth, so she didn’t

respond. Meanwhile, Naomi sighed and lamented, “I know that I might be too straightforward and blunt

at times, but I do hope that we can get along well as a family.”

Since they were in front of Francis, Anastasia couldn’t refute her, but she never regarded them as one

family in her heart.

“I’ll be leaving now.” With that, Naomi left with her bag. Francis then turned to Anastasia and asked,

“Do you still blame Naomi for everything?”

“I just don’t understand why you would betray Mom back then. Isn’t she good enough for you?”

Anastasia couldn’t help but question her father.

Francis seldom mentioned this matter to her, but at that moment, he looked regretful. “It’s all my fault,

but I never betrayed your mother on purpose. I made a mistake when I went out drinking and

socializing. Naomi had just graduated from university and was working in the purchasing department

back then, so we had Erica by accident.”

Hearing that, Naomi furrowed her brows. “You were dead drunk, but what about Naomi? I don’t think

she was drunk!”

“I was forced by my clients to drink until I almost died on the table, and when I woke up, Naomi was

already right beside me. I had been waiting to come clean to your mother about it, but in less than a

month, your mother…”

Anastasia didn’t need her father to explain all the details. After all, she understood it well as an adult.

Her father was already running the construction company then; although it was of a small scale, he

earned millions per month. Naturally, Naomi must have plotted a plan to seduce her father.

Even if her mother was still alive, Naomi would still try to ruin their family. Therefore, after Anastasia’s

mother passed away, Naomi gave birth to Erica and got married to her father immediately.

“It was because of my carelessness that caused what happened five years ago. I owe you, so I want to

compensate you with this company.” Francis had already written a will to distribute his assets, and

Anastasia would get the biggest share.

“I don’t want your company, Dad. I just want you to be healthy,” Anastasia uttered with sincerity.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. A man who looked to be in his fifties entered the ward, and he

was accompanied by an assistant carrying a fruit basket.
