Chapter 505
Night of Destiny
âThere is a way, but it canât be implemented right now. Itâs gonna take a period of observation. We canât
undergo the brain treatment until the examination data reaches the ideal state.â
âHow long do you roughly need?â
âAbout three months! During this period, we will do everything in our power to maintain your fatherâs
treatment while he is in a coma.â
âPlease prescribe him with whatever
medication he needs. Money is not a
problem,â said Elliot.
âWe will, Young Master Elliot. We guarantee to provide the best available treatment for Mr. Tillman,â they
replied.
With a question that had been lingering on her mind, Anastasia took the opportunity to ask, âDoes my
dadâs episode have something to do with his
alcohol intake-specifically two glasses of wine?â
âMiss Tillman, if he only drank two glasses of wine, it would not cause his heart failure. We suspect that
your father had ingested the medicine by mistake.â
âYes. We found a small piece of residual pill in your fatherâs mouth and it is a poisonous drug for the
cardiovascular system. Rather than strengthening the heart, it has the opposite effect. As for the exact
properties of it, it will take two days for us to verify
âWhat?! My dad took the wrong pill?â Anastasia was shocked to hear that. Why would her father take the
wrong pill?
âPerhaps you should inquire with someone who stays with your father about the situation and the kind of
drugs he usually takes.â
âOkay. Iâll get to the bottom of it while I collect some samples of my dadâs medications for your
inspection.â âThat would be greatâ
âElliot, itâs cold at night. Weâve arranged a room in the hotel opposite the hospital. Take Miss Tillman over
to rest! Rest
assured weâre here to take care of Mr. Tillman!â suggested Benedict.
Elliot nodded in agreement and looked at Anastasia. âBenedict and the others will guard here. Theyâll
inform us right away if something happens.â
Anastasia knew that treating her father would be a long battle that would take more than a day or two.
She had to maintain her physical strength and body in order to take care of her father.
When they walked out of the hospital and entered the car, she was thinking about one thing-why is there
even a chance for a poisonous drug within the reach of my dad, let alone mistakenly ingest it?
âElliot, I want to head home and check on the kind of medicines my dad is taking.â
âOkay, Iâll drive you there.â He nodded.
On the other side, Naomi and Erica were in the lounge when Alex quickly walked in and informed them,
âI heard from the doctor earlier that Elliot took off with Anastasia.â
âWhere did they go?
âNot sure, but Iâll take you guys home!
Letâs come back tomorrow morning,â he
offered.
An exhausted Erica then prodded her mother to leave. âMom, letâs go! I want to sleep.â
With that, the mother and daughter decided to go home. Along the way, Alex asked Naomi if the pills
were left at home which she then answered, I only bought two bottles. One is in my hand now and the
other is at your place. I didnât leave. any at home.â
âHurry up and get rid of it! We canât let anyone discover it, he suggested. As such, Naomi told him to stop
by the road. She threw the pills into a nearby river and returned to the car and assured, âDonât worry,
Anastasia will never know what medicine we gave her dad.â
Erica, the other accomplice, also
breathed a sigh of relief. âAnastasia
definitely wonât suspect us.â
Elliotâs car was parked outside the gate of Tillman Residence. After keying in the passcode at the door,
Anastasia found that the lights were still on. She also saw the driver, Joe, sleeping on the sofa. When
Joe heard the noise at the door, he immediately woke up.
âMiss Tillman, youâre back. What about.
President Tillman?â
âWhy are you here, Mr. Bachelor?â
âWhen Madam left just now, she asked me to stay and watch the house, so I didnât leave. How is
President Tillman?â
Anastasiaâs gaze turned serious as she inquired, âMr. Bachelor, tell me about the situation last night
when you saw my father passing out.â
âI sent President Tillman back home and left, but I suddenly recalled that Old Madam Presgrave gave a
lot of gifts in the car, so I turned back. When I walked in. with the gifts, I already saw President Tillman
lying on the ground unconscious.â
