Chapter 519
After such a night, Naomi immediately went to the hospital and overheard two nurses discussing Francis’ condition
as they passed her by.
“I heard Dr. Jones saying that Mr. Tillman’s medicine has started to take effect and that it’s very effective.”
“Really? That’s good news to hear.”
Naomi started to panic, as she began to believe the possibility of Francis waking up since even the nurses were
talking about it. Sitting by Francis’ bedside, she started to feel unease as she stared at his sleeping face.
On the other side of the window, Anastasia stood silently while intently watching Naomi’s chilling gaze of hatred.
She was waiting for the moment of Naomi’s breakdown, the moment Naomi took action due to the fear inside her.
Just like the day before, Naomi left once more. As she walked along the corridors of Presgrave Hospital, her eyes
wandered around the high-tech hospital that looked as if it could raise a man from his death. Upon leaving the
hospital, she came to a conclusion that she couldn’t let that man wake up, as she couldn’t lose the shares she and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther daughter had gotten. He must die, she thought, with viciousness in her eyes. With everything that I’ve done,
what difference would it make, doing one more cruel deed?
Naomi planned to hide what she was about to do from her daughter and Alex, as she feared her daughter would
crumble under the pressure and that Alex would stop her since he did not understand the fear she was
experiencing. Therefore, she decided to do this alone.

If Francis died in Presgrave Hospital, Naomi could even pin his death on Anastasia and sue the hospital for a huge
amount of compensation. All in all, to Naomi, there were only profits to be made should Francis die in Presgrave
Hospital.
With this thinking in mind, Naomi made a call to the unscrupulous owner whom she had gotten the previous pills
from. She had already planned the method of how she would administer the drug, as she noticed that Francis’ arm
was hooked up to some tube for his medication. By discreetly injecting the tube with the lethal drug, Francis would
surely die unwittingly. At that time, the hospital would have to take full responsibility for his death.
As for the surveillance camera in the ward, Naomi surmised that it would be enough as long as she had her back to
the camera while using her clothes as a cover while she was injecting the drug into the tube. Naomi, who was
immersed in her planning, was completely unaware that every movement of her wicked plan was being monitored,
as a black car followed behind her when she
entered the unscrupulous store.
Anastasia received a call from the bodyguard she placed on Naomi saying that Naomi had entered a drugstore and
left after spending 10 minutes there. Furthermore, the bodyguard noted that Naomi looked tense when she left the
store in a hurry.
Looks like she took the bait, Anastasia thought. She had expected Naomi to be impatient, as Naomi needed to make
sure her plans so far were ironclad due to the huge benefits she was going to obtain. Naomi needed to make sure
her husband would no longer wake up in this life so that
she could be the president of Tillman Constructions, which was worth billions. With all these in mind, Anastasia
expected Naomi would make her move on the next day.
In the evening, in a certain restaurant, Elliot brought Jared to meet Arthur and Richard for dinner. Due to the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsudden cancellation of the engagement, Elliot was sorry for leaving his friends behind and putting them on hold.
“It’s fine. We’ll still be there as promised the next time you get engaged.” Richard laughed lightly.
Then, Arthur steered the conversation to the recent events. “I may need to stay here for a few more days since I
still haven’t found the thing that I lost!”
Richard turned his attention toward Arthur and noticed the chain he usually had around his neck was missing.
Slightly surprised, he asked, “Don’t tell me you lost your heirloom treasure?!”
Arthur sighed depressingly. “It is just like you said.”
“Where did you lose it? Is there any hope of finding it? Do you need my help?” Elliot asked with concern while he
handed small slices of his steak onto Jared’s plate.
“There’s no need for you to help. I’ve already gotten a clue that it was a female thief who took it.”
“A thief that could steal something of yours? Don’t tell me you have fallen prey at those kinds of places?” When
Richard recalled how often Arthur would patronize those kinds of places, his tone turned slightly harsh.
