It was a sunny day, but Anastasia paced around and kneaded her hands anxiously with a heavy heart.Although she trusted Lily, it was almost noon, and she had not arrived yet. Anastasia had no idea what was happening because Lily had not answered her phone. Anastasia wondered if her father could wake up.At this juncture, someone knocked on the door. Anastasia was so nervous that she nearly jumped and asked reflexively. “Who is it?”“Miss Rollins?” I was the voice of a servant.Anastasia heaved a sigh of relief and glanced at her father, who was still unconscious on the bed. Then she turned around, opened the door, and looked at the servant. “What’s the matter?”The servant hesitated before asking, “Miss Rollins, the phone downstairs has been ringing nonstop since we plugged it in. Would you like to answer it?”They would unplug the landline phone every day between 10 p.m. to 8 a.m., and only those closest to them could reach Anastasia’s mobile phone. That was because Anastasia wa

“The toxin within his body caused that,” Alexander said, “He looks no different than an ordinary patient on the surface, but the harm could be long-lasting.”In other words, Cameron’s body was using up its stored energy, fat, muscles, and blood, and he would die upon total depletion.Of course, that was what Lily told Alexander. As she was rushing, Lily seemed to have said whatever came haphazardly to her mind. Still, Alexander had such a vital comprehension skill that he roughly understood what she was saying after digesting it.Although he did know much about herbal medicine, he knew its fundamental principles.“Then what should we do?” What he said alarmed Anastasia. She could hardly contain her emotions and grabbed his sleeve. “Please save my father. I can’t let anything happen to him!”She was fighting back her tears.As her mother died early, her father was the one who raised her. Although he had not spent much time with her, she knew he loved her. Anastasia used to think h

Cameron’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down—he managed to swallow the pill. Anastasia heaved a massive sigh of relief when she saw that. “My father swallowed it!”“Water!” Alexander was still holding Cameron’s head as he reached his free hand toward her.Anastasia caught herself and hastily handed Alexander a glass of water. Then he quickly fed some to Cameron. Although some water spilled from the corners of Cameron’s mouth, Alexander had at least made him drink some of it.Anastasia became so moved when she watched her father swallow the pill that she nearly burst into tears. They had at least made him swallow the pill. All they could do now was wait.“When will my father wake up?” she asked despite herself.Alexander shook his head. “I have no idea.”Lily did not tell Alexander how long it would take for Cameron to wake up after ingesting the pill. All she said was to observe his reaction. After all, it was an unusual toxin, and she could not be there to see its real-time effects

Being unable to shove Anastasia aside in the presence of his business rival infuriated Fabian. “Stupid girl, are you going against me for an outsider?”“I’m only doing this for my father!” She stretched her arms and shielded her father. She said solemnly, “My father has just taken the pill and will be fine soon. I can’t allow you to create any trouble at this moment!”“Pill? What pill? Did he bring it? Do you trust him so much?” After a pause, he thought of something and chuckled coldly. “Or did his wife tell you your father got poisoned?”He suddenly remembered that Maria had complained about Lily before, but he did not take it seriously then. ‘Looks like Lily has seriously brainwashed my niece, hasn’t she?’Anastasia neither denied nor admitted it and simply said, “Uncle Fabian, kicking up a fuss about this won’t do you any good either. Just go back, and let me take care of my father.”“How am I making a fuss? I’m worried about your father’s health and want to send him to the

After achieving so much, what Fabian feared most was Cameron’s downfall and no one to back him up again. Fabian was at the end of his rope before securing the project, and turning the tides was challenging.He was able to turn his business around because of the project, and people started seeing him differently, knowing that Cameron was partial to him. Therefore, it was not just about the significant profit the project could bring but also its meaning.However, if Cameron no longer held his position, Fabian knew what would happen to his business because others would no longer bother with him.Therefore, he was agreeable when Anastasia told him not to inform outsiders about the situation. However, seeing Alexander there, he could not help but wonder if they were ganging up to scheme against him. “Why should I trust you?” Fabian mustered his courage and glared at Alexander defiantly. Then he once again held up his phone. “I’m going to make the call anyway, and the doctor will tell m
