As Hayley recalled how Alex reacted when he saw her older pictures, she was irked by his exaggerated
expression. As expected, he only liked her because of her resemblance to Anastasia.
“Anastasia, why are you constantly on my tail?” Hayley grumbled.
After the policemen left, Erica became anxious. She suddenly had an urge to go to the spot where she
pushed Wanda down. She wanted to verify whether Wanda was still near the reef. In order to peace her
mind, she hurried over there.
Is Mrs. Garner dead?
On the contrary, Wanda survived. Although she was a vicious person, she was fortunate enough to
survive the fall. After she was pushed into the sea by Erica, she was swept to the shore by the waves.
When she was found, she had been submerged in the sea for a long period of time and was sent to the
nearest hospital. Even though she had been resuscitated, she had fallen into a coma.
As Erica stood by the sea shore and glanced at the vast ocean, which seemed like the perfect burial
ground. Mrs. Garner might have perished. She stayed there for a while before leaving.
Back then, when Tillman Constructions was in the news, it was about the company being on the brink of
bankruptcy and how they were in arrears with their employees’ pay which made the headlines. The
media somehow heard rumors about it and released the news in order to boost traffic and readership.
On that day, news about Tillman Constructions’ revival made the news. All of their employees were well
compensated, and some of the biggest names in real estate had signed collaboration agreements with
them. Instantly, Tillman Constructions was regarded as one of the most promising companies within its
industry.
The incident regarding Naomi and her daughter’s online article that had caused a frenzy and put
Anastasia in a bad light was overturned because of this.
Subsequently, the incident of Naomi being suspected of murdering her husband and robbing his
inheritance was revealed. At the same time, Anastasia’s efforts to save her father were also reported.
Anastasia’s reputation had instantly improved and she was viewed in a good light by the netizens. They
praised her for her good looks, her acts of filial piety, and her new status as Tillman Construction’s
current president.
She only found out about the news while she was on her way back from the hospital. The news amused
her, and she believed that it was the doing of Elliot. In actual fact, he was the one that bailed out Tillman
Corporation, but he gave her all the credits. She had won praise for being a savvy president who had
successfully redeemed her reputation. Although Anastasia was never bothered by how others looked at
her, those nasty comments in the past did hurt her feelings.
In the hospital, Francis was pushed into the ward after the doctor performed checks on him. After being
in a coma for a month, he finally regained consciousness.
The nurse who came into his ward noticed that his eyes were open and she walked over surprisedly. “Mr.
Tillman, you’re awake.”
Immediately, she ran out to get the doctors. Two of the doctors entered the ward and performed some
regular checks on him.
“Mr. Tillman, do you feel any discomfort?”
“How long have I been unconscious?” Francis asked with a hoarse voice.
“You have been unconscious for 31 days.”
“What? It’s been a month?” He suddenly sat up but had to lean on the headboard as he felt weak.
“Where’s my daughter and wife?”
“Mr. Tillman, please wait for a moment. I’ll inform Ms. Tillman to come over now.”
As Francis shut his eyes, the voices that he had last heard rang in his ears. Those voices were like a
nightmare to him. The fact that Naomi and Erica tried to kill him brought him misery.
When Anastasia stepped into the hospital hall, the nurse at the reception informed her delightedly, “Ms.
Tillman, your dad is awake.”
“For real?” With a bag in her hand, she dashed over to the elevator as she couldn’t wait to head upstairs,
and rushed all the way to her father’s ward. When she saw him sitting up, she fought back the tears of
excitement and walked in. “Dad,. you are awake!”
“Anastasia, you’re here.” Francis seemed tired, but he desperately wanted to ask her something.
