Chapter 98 He Is Here
Chapter 98 He Is Here
At night.
Charlie developed a "high fever" again, and Beatrice was justifiably admitted to the original ward of the hospital.
At the Graves Manor.
When Anastasia came home, Amanda and Baxter were already cooking in the kitchen, talking and laughing.
Baxter was a very principled person. If Amanda was not around, he would never cook.
If Amanda cooked, he could not just sit and watch and have to participate.
Thus, as soon as Anastasia came home, she heard Baxter running back and forth while not forgetting to tell Amanda how much he had missed her lately. Derek was reading emails in the living room. When he saw Anastasia coming in, he said with a smile, "Go to the kitchen and have a look!" Anastasia had a headache. She went in reluctantly and saw that Amanda was cooking steak while Baxter walked around, wishing he could do it for her. "Be careful, don't let the oil jump on your hands."
Amanda smiled. "Isn't the heat a little too high?"
Baxter said, "It's okay. Derek and Anastasia like it this way."
Anastasia was speechless. She could not help but cough. Baxter suppressed his cheeky smile and looked at her solemnly.
"You're back?"
Anastasia nodded, holding back laughter. "Dad, I don't like to eat overcooked steaks!"
Baxter clicked his tongue. "Don't be so picky!"
At the dinner table, Amanda poured a glass of red wine for everyone.
Finally, she mentioned meeting Lamia in the hospital.
Anastasia explained the reason for going.
Amanda nodded and chuckled lightly.
"Mrs. Lamia Patterson thinks that the Patterson family is so attractive, and she has been trying to arrange dates for her son everywhere. I heard that she has met many famous and wealthy girls lately, planning to look for someone suitable for Christian."
Anastasia's expression was calm, without any disturbance. "Then let her look. Even if she finds someone she thinks is suitable, it won't matter unless that girl agrees to it too!"
Seeing Anastasia's indifference, Amanda was slightly relieved.
She was really afraid that her daughter had not let go yet.
Especially when she saw Lamia humiliating Anastasia at the entrance of the hospital, she wished she could rush up to protect her.
Baxter took a sip of his wine and said with a smile, "Alright, let's not talk about these unhappy topics. There's a charity auction in a few days. Derek, Anastasia, go with me." Anastasia raised her eyebrows. "Okay."
Derek naturally had no objection.
The next day, in the hospital.
Anastasia was worried about Grace, so she went to the hospital again before going to work.
She took the elevator upstairs.
However, the elevator stopped on the floor below the VIP floor, and there was no one outside.
Then, the elevator suddenly lost power and stopped operating.
She hurried out and could only walk up the stairs.
Fortunately, she was not locked in the elevator.
Anastasia went to the stairwell, walked a few steps, and suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming up.
She glanced subconsciously, only seeing the curly brown hair on that person.
Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad premonition.
However, in the next second, the footsteps stopped, and that person disappeared.
Anastasia took a deep breath, walked a few steps, and left the stairwell.
She stood at the door of the ward, and the bodyguards at the door did not stop her.
Grace was in the same state as yesterday.
She asked the bodyguards to focus more today and then asked them to call Christian and tell him that the murderer might be here in the hospital right now. Before the call was hung up, Christian had already arrived upstairs.
Just as Anastasia was about to leave, she happened to see him coming.
Christian's face was solemn as he walked over. "Follow me to take a look at the surveillance?"
He knew that it was Anastasia who provided the information.
He was also not surprised that she was here.
