Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman )
Chapter 562

Chapter 562

“Dad, she’s getting away!” Erica shouted in terror. As anxious as Patrick was, he still dared not jump out

of the window. “She hasn’t gone far, Erica. I’ll run downstairs and chase after her.”

The area was deserted, for the warehouses here were all abandoned. Despite being seriously injured

and also having fallen off a building, Wanda had one thing in mind: she couldn’t die; she had to bring

Erica’s true parentage to light. Erica has to pay the price!

“Help! Someone wants to kill me… Help!” Wanda shouted feebly. Patrick had caught up with his

machete, and his desire to kill Wanda had overthrown his reasoning at this point. No one else could

know of his daughter’s

true parentage; this woman had to die! Just then a motorcycle was passing by, and when the man heard

Wanda’s cries for help, he immediately turned in. “Help, help…” Wanda called out at once, seeing there

was finally someone.

“What’s wrong, ma’am?” the man asked when he saw that she was covered in blood. “Someone wants to

kill me. Please take me to Tillman Constructions’ front gate…”

Coincidentally, the man was an employee of Tillman Constructions. Without another word, he helped

Wanda to his motorcycle and sped away.

Meanwhile, Patrick had hidden away, and cold sweat gathered on his forehead when he saw that Wanda

had been taken away. Alas, he had failed his daughter.

Not minutes after Wanda had been taken to the front gates that a black Rolls-Royce pulled over, for a

crowd was blocking the path.

“Miss Tillman, something seems to be going on in front,” the bodyguard notified

Anastasia, who was seated at the back.

Worried about the commotion, Anastasia got out of the car and hurriedly squeezed into the crowd. Just

then, someone shouted, “Miss Tillman’s here!”

Anastasia discovered the weak woman lying on the ground was none other than Mrs. Garner, who had

been working in Tillman Residence for the longest time.

“Mrs. Garner?” She squatted down and couldn’t help being taken aback when she saw her bloody lower

abdomen.

“Miss Tillman… I want to tell you a secret… Erica isn’t your father’s daughter…” The next second,

Wanda’s eyes rolled upward, out cold.

It took Anastasia a few seconds to recover from the shocking revelation, and she hurriedly turned to her

bodyguard behind. “Take her to the hospital.”

With that, the bodyguard dashed to the nearest hospital. While Wanda was taken to the emergency

room, Anastasia waited right outside, mulling over what Wanda

had just said.

Erica isn’t Dad’s daughter… Does that mean Naomi had her with some other guy? Dad definitely

wouldn’t be stupid enough not to do a DNA test before accepting Erica into the family. So Naomi tricked

Dad, didn’t she?

Anastasia was too little to remember anything at that time. So if Naomi really did do something, it

would’ve been using Anastasia’s blood in replace of Erica’s to successfully pass her father’s test.

Anger flashed across Anastasia’s eyes as the thought crossed her mind. Even her father had been

deceived for twenty-over years. This despicable woman, who had no blood relations with her family,

drove her out of her own home and even seized her father’s love for years!

Anastasia was so livid that her body started shaking. Also, why had Wanda suffered such a serious

injury? Who did it to her?

Anastasia stayed outside of the emergency room alone. She had wanted to tell Francis about it but

decided against

it in the end, for she worried something would happen to him if he couldn’t take the news since he had

just woken up.

Meanwhile, Erica drove back downtown with Patrick in nothing but fear and worry. Wanda had once

again slipped from her fingers, so it was only a matter of time before Anastasia discovered the truth of

her parentage.

And now, the one thing she had to do was to return to Tillman Residence, take all her mother’s precious

jewelry and bank cards, and hide them somewhere.

She had Patrick lie low in the meantime, asking him not to replace anyone lately and steer clear of the police

lest he dragged her down.

Never had Patrick imagined in all his life he would kill someone for his daughter. Worst of all, he had

bloodied his hand without finishing the job. He would definitely be doomed if Wanda ever regained

consciousness.

In the Tillman Residence, Erica charged into Francis’ bedroom and ransacked the place, searching for

anything she could

immediately exchange for money.

However, it never occurred to her if she would ever have the chance to spend them after seizing them.
