Chapter 510
“Due to the delay in administering immediate medical treatment, President Tillman has been declared comatose, and he might never wake up again.”
Colin’s eyes lit up at this. Knowing that the deal was sure to be risk-free, he happily reached for the agreement and the bank card while demanding, “I want two percent of the shares in Tillman Constructions after I see through the deal.” This was the perfect opportunity for him to get rich, and he would be a fool to not seize it.
Alex had the authority to agree to this proposition, and he knew he had to, seeing as switching out the will was the most important part of the entire scheme. “Very well. In that case, we’ll be on the same side from now on,” he replied, nodding.
Then, Colin went over to the safe and took out the old will Francis had made, then tore it into pieces in front of Alex. Having done so, he slipped the new one into the safe.
A satisfied smile played on Alex’s lips. At last, the will has been successfully switched. Now, Naomi and Erica stood to inherit sixty percent of Tillman Constructions; that translated to a good seven hundred million in assets and liquidity.
Meanwhile, over at Presgrave Hospital, Francis was sent into one of the check-up rooms to run several tests. Anastasia waited anxiously in the hallway with Rey, who stood behind her to keep her company while Elliot went back to the company to handle important work matters.
“Would you like to sit down, Miss Tillman?” Rey asked, looking at the woman with concern.

“No, I’m fine,” Anastasia muttered tiredly as she shook her head. She prayed furtively that the tests would show positive results.
Just then, a nurse stationed on this floor came up to them and said, “Miss Tillman, two of your family members have arrived and they’re waiting outside the entrance. They’re really anxious. Should I let them in?”
Anastasia frowned. She didn’t have to ask to know that the ones throwing a fit outside the entrance were Naomi and Erica. She wanted Francis to have these tests done without interference, so she instructed the nurse, “Keep them outside and do not let them in.”
“Very well.”
The nurse had only just walked away when Anastasia turned to address Rey, “Could you go with the nurse and see what’s the fuss about?”
“Of course. I’ll get right to it,” he agreed and hurried toward the elevators.
Naomi’s aversion toward Presgrave Hospital isn’t just because of my relationship with the Presgraves. What is she so afraid of? Is she worried that Dad will receive better medical treatment here? Anastasia wondered grimly.
Presently, Naomi and Erica were arguing with the security guards in the Presgrave Hospital lobby.
“I’m warning you–if I don’t see my husband by the end of the day, I’ll have this hospital torn down!” Naomi threatened at the top of her lungs.
The security guards eyed her steadily, completely unaffected. They highly doubted that the likes of her had the power to demolish the Presgraves’ hospital building.
“Hand my father over right now or I’ll sue every single one of you! I’ll expose you for being accomplices to a kidnapping crime!” Erica had unfortunately her mother’s affinity for dramatics and somehow associated volume with intimidation.
“I’m sorry, but this is a private hospital, and I’m afraid you can’t just have your way. You are not allowed to enter until further instructions say otherwise.”
