Chapter 711
“What happened to Great–Grandma?” Jared asked with wide eyes.
“It‘s nothing. She just went somewhere very far away.” After Nigel finished speaking, he kissed Jared on the
forehead and said, “Off to the classroom you go.”
Jared gave him a hug before he entered the classroom.
Subsequently, Nigel got up and let out a breath, then wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes before he
headed to the hospital.
In a villa, Lorelai‘s father, Liam Presgrave, breathed a sigh of relief. “She‘s finally gone. I‘ve been waiting for this
day for too long.”
“Dad, even if Old Madam Presgrave is gone, Anastasia is not easy to deal with.” Lorelai had personally experienced
how powerful Anastasia was.
“What are you afraid of? She‘s an inexperienced young woman. She doesn‘t pose a threat to us.” Liam chided with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇta look of disapproval before he continued happily, “In the future, we‘ll definitely be able to get our share in
Presgrave Corporation. Maybe we can even get the chance to inherit the company with your help.”
“Dad, how is it possible? How could we own the company?”
“If you get pregnant with Elliot‘s child, it‘s possible.”
“I..” Lorelai‘s eyes turned disappointed. “He only has Anastasia in his heart now.”
“Who said that there is only one way to get pregnant? I heard that Elliot has saved something in Presgrave Hospital
from back then as a back up plan by Old Madam Presgrave.”
A blush flushed across Lorelai‘s face. “Dad, do you mean I have to...”
“As long as you get pregnant with his seed in your stomach, he will have no choice but to acknowledge the child
after it‘s born.” Liam had already planned everything, but Harriet had to be dead for his plan to be implemented.
Lorelai‘s breathing quickened slightly. Did she really have to treat Elliot in such a despicable way? However, when
she thought of the way Anastasia had threatened her earlier, she still felt furious. In her opinion, if her father hadn‘t
stopped her, she would have returned home to chase after Elliot a long time ago. Then, he might‘ve even fallen for
her first as she had investigated that after Anastasia became pregnant with his child five years ago, there were no
interactions between the two. It was Harriet who forced Elliot to marry her. At first, Elliot had rejected Anastasia.
Therefore, she had always thought that she had just lost the opportunity, not that she
was inferior to Anastasia.
“However, we‘re not the only ones who are eyeing Presgrave Corporation. Nolan is the same. He wants to gain
more assets for his children and grandchildren. Hmph! In that case, let‘s have a showdown!”
Lorelai curled her lips into a smile. “They wouldn‘t be able to do something like what you‘d just told me.”
“Of course. They‘re still related by blood, while we‘re not related to the Presgrave Family at all.”
“Dad, I won‘t let you down,” Lorelai promised.
She had also discovered now that without a strong backing to support her, she would only live an ordinary life, and
it was only if she had someone like Elliot backing her could she shine.
In the hospital, Elliot was busy handling the affairs of Harriet personally, while Brenda assisted him. Anastasia was

“President Tillman, you haven‘t eaten yet, right? Why don‘t you have something to eat first?”
Sophia looked at Anastasia with a pained expression. Because of her grief, she looked like a different person from
yesterday. Her eyes were red, her hair was slightly messy, and her skin was pale.
“I don‘t feel like eating. Take it away.” Anastasia shook her head.
Sophia persuaded softly, “President Tillman, everyone is sad because of Old Madam Presgrave‘s passing, but you
still have to cheer up and take care of others. We can‘t have you going down right now. You still have your children
to take care of, and you have to help President Presgrave arrange the funeral. You need to eat.”
Anastasia‘s emotions were very fragile at the moment, and she needed someone to get her out of her slump.
Sophia‘s words undoubtedly gave her strength. She glanced at her gratefully and said, “Thank you, Sophia, you‘re
right.”
She couldn‘t let anything else happen to her and give everyone more trouble.
