Chapter 1825
Spoiled by Mr. Russell
Cameronâs Adamâs apple bobbed up and downâhe 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 Cameronâs 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.
As they fell into silence, a ding came from outside the door.
Anastasia could hear Fabianâs voice, and the servant tried to stop him.
"Mr.Moore, you canât go in.You..."
The servant sounded anxious.
"Miss Rollins? Miss Rollins"
Anastasia exchanged looks with Alexander and took a deep breath before opening the door.
Then Fabian happened to rush over and nearly collided with her.
Fortunately, he stopped just in time.He curled his lips into a grin when he saw his niece.
"Tasia, your servants are becoming increasingly unruly!"
"Uncle Fabian, didnât I tell you not to disturb my father? Don't you know the situation weâre facing now?"
Anastasia acted calm and spoke unemotionally.
"Of course I do! That's why Iâm anxious!"
Fabian clapped and shouted, "Itâs been days, and thereâs still no sign of your father waking up! Do you know the kind of rumors circulating outside? We're running out of time! I think itâs better if we send your father to the hospital..."
He tried entering the room as he spoke, seemingly planning to take Cameron away by force.
"Uncle Fabian!"
Anastasia extended her arm to stop him and said solemnly, "I told you we couldnât send my father to the hospital due to his position.You're just going to worsen things!"
"What the hell are you talking about? How am I making things worse? Iâm your uncle, okay?"
Fabian grew upset and tried to push her aside.
"Even if we canât send him to a public hospital, how about a private one? "1 know many doctors, and I can get a trustworthy one to check on your father.It beats doing nothing and allowing the gossip to spread further!"
However, as Anastasia was sturdier, he failed to make her budge.She would have gotten shoved aside if she were small-sized like other girls.
Standing akimbo, Anastasia was somewhat upset.
"Uncle Fabian! Thatâs my father.Do you think I don't wish heâll get better soon? Just listen to me for my father's and everyoneâs sake!"
Fabian saw her angry expression and was stunned.
He hesitated momentarily but could hardly stand it anymore.
After staying home for two days, he had to deal with several people who enquired about Cameron at the vaccine development center.
He felt restless while his wife was bedridden from sorrow due to losing her daughter.
