Chapter 77 Don't Surrender
Chapter 77 Don't Surrender
Next second, feeling the unfamiliar warmth, Anastasia straightened up, wiped away her tears, and avoided the big hands.
A sense of distance appeared between them.
Christian's face went cold.
The doctor led him to the intensive care unit because Chad's operation was not over yet.
But according to the doctor, the operation was successful. But it still needed observation.
Anastasia breathed a sigh of relief.
The stone hanging in her heart finally dropped a little.
If anything ever happened to Grace and Chad, she would not forgive herself.
Before leaving, she went to the bathroom.
She heard Lamia talking on the phone, who was complaining in a soft voice, "That old woman is almost finished. She is still in the ICU. I hope she won't make it to tomorrow.
"I hadn't forgotten that she was picky and disdainful of me when I entered the family, and now she always says that I'm not as good as Lyra. Why wasn't she killed in this car accident? I might as well just pull the plug..."
Anastasia's eyes darkened, and a sense of disappointment was suddenly provoked in her heart.
She knew how vicious Lamia could be, but she hid it so well that she didn't realize that she hated Grace this much as well.
She stood outside, and Lamia came out as soon as she finished the phone call.
The moment she saw Anastasia, Lamia's face froze. She stared at her vigilantly.
"What did you hear?"
Anastasia looked back at her for a few seconds and then calmly responded, "I was not eavesdropping, but I heard everything that should be heard."
She shook her phone to show her that what she had said was already recorded.
Lamia's face turned in panic.
She shrugged and smiled coldly.
"Mrs. Lamia Patterson, let me warn you once. No matter how much you hate Grandma, I will let the whole world hear how vicious you are if you dare to do anything!"
She didn't leave on purpose, just to scare her.
Since there was nothing more to worry about, she couldn't let Grace fall into another danger.
Lamia's eyes instantly turned fierce. She gritted her teeth and looked at Anastasia.
"How dare you threaten me!"
"I do dare. Do you want to try?"
Anastasia approached her, smiled, and said in a cold tone, "Mr. James Patterson is quite obedient to his parents. If he knows what you have said, I'm afraid you will probably be kicked out of the family, right?" Lamia trembled all over, her lips turning slightly pale.
With her goal achieved, Anastasia smiled and left.
Lamia couldn't help but stare at her walking away.
"I won't touch her, and I won't come to the hospital again, but Anastasia, you don't want to get close to the Patterson family again!"
Anastasia dissatisfied her in every way, not to mention her humble status. Her marrying her son at the time was already against her will, and now she dared to threaten her!
She thought Anastasia would be afraid, but she just chuckled lightly without turning her head, her voice cold and crisp.
"I don't care!"
Anastasia didn't leave until Chad's operation was finished.
Christian was busy investigating the perpetrator and the injuries of Grace and Chad. Thus, he couldn't pay attention to Anastasia's whereabouts.
After the operation was over, the doctors discussed the next treatment plan and prepared to leave.
They were all the top experts in the country, and they were temporarily transferred to this hospital. Christian told Steve, "Arrange the experts well. Meet all their needs."
One of the experts smiled politely.
"Mr. Patterson, you're welcome. We will do everything as Ms. Graves demands."
Christian paused for a second and nodded.
He was a bit confused. How could Anastasia summon so many experts in such a short period of time?
How could a mere director of Starlight Entertainment have so many connections and capabilities?
In the ward, Beatrice called several times in a panic before the phone picked up.
"Dear daughter, I've helped you with your issues. The car accident took place just across from the buildings of Starlight Entertainment. I chased for several days before getting the chance to get rid of those two old things. Don't forget to transfer the money to me!"
