Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 252

Chapter 252 Promise Me You’ll Seek His Help

“Francis, I heard you were so upset that you ended up in the hospital, so I’ve come to visit!” The man entered the ward with a fake smile on his face.

When Francis saw him, his face instantly turned scarlet as he bellowed, “What a despicable man you are, Lawrence Clavell! You think I’m an easy target, right? Leave this place at once!”

Anastasia instantly became alert. As she looked at the well-dressed middle-aged man in front of her, she could tell that this man was up to no good. When she saw how her father reacted to his visit, she assumed that he was the acquirer of her father’s company.

“Tsk, Francis, why are you still struggling at this point? Leave the company to us, and you can retire in peace!” The man looked kind, but he was mocking her father in actuality.

“Get out. I’m not going to negotiate with people like you. You can’t take my company away from me.” Francis’ chest was heaving, obviously angered by Lawrence’s words.

“I don’t care who you are, but please leave my father’s ward.”

“Whoa, there! This must be your daughter! What a beauty!” Lawrence looked at Anastasia with a hint of lewdness in his eyes. One could tell with a glance that he looked like those perverted old men on the streets.

Under his scrutinizing gaze, Anastasia felt goosebumps forming on her skin while she dismissed him coldly by saying, “Please leave.”

“What’s the rush, beautiful? I’m just here to have a little chat with your father before I go.”

Lawrence then looked at Francis and gloated, “Look how the tables have turned! The company will finally be in my hands. Read the room, Francis. You should be enjoying life after working so hard all these years. Just give up on your company already! It’ll be beneficial for the both of us, after all.”

Once again, Francis was so furious that his chest started heaving. When she saw that her father was enraged, Anastasia recalled the doctor mentioning not to get him too emotional, or else it would trigger a full-blown heart attack. In the end, she couldn’t hold back her anger and picked up the fruit knife on the table. “I told you to leave! Do you hear me?!” she threatened.

Lawrence was instantly frightened upon seeing this, so his assistant quickly held on to him.
