Chapter 566
All Erica ever thought about was money and living a lavish, comfortable life. In her twenty years of living in Tillman
Residence, she only ever learned one thing-spending,
Life would be a living hell for her if she didn’t have money. All credit to Naomi as well for successfully producing an
incompetent daughter.
Lastly, Erica opened Francis’ watch case and took everything in there away without hesitation.
She decided that she would leave Averna and hide in a different town. For all she knew, Wanda might not actually
hold her liable.
Back in the hospital, the doctors managed to revive Wanda. Fortunately, the wound wasn’t on her vital organs, or
she actually might not have survived.
Wanda had also woken up in no time, finding Anastasia standing by her bed. Because of Naomi, Wanda also
snubbed Anastasia in many ways.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut who’d have thought Anastasia would one day be her savior.
*Thank you for saving me, Miss Anastasia. I owe you my life.” Wanda knew she would’ve bled to death if she was
brought here any later.
“Mrs. Garner, please tell me in detail. Why were you hunted, and who were they?”
With that, Wanda recounted the first time she overheard Erica and her birth father’s conversation, to Erica pushing
her into the sea, up till what happened earlier in the day.
The story stupefied Anastasia, for she couldn’t believe Erica disregarded human life and broke so many laws just to
keep her true parentage under wraps.
“Mrs. Garner, you swear everything you’ve told me is the truth. Are you hiding anything?” Anastasia asked.
“How dare I! I shall be d*mned to hell if I have lied to you!” Wanda was so agitated that she nearly passed out.
Anastasia sneered to herself when she saw Wanda’s sincere gaze. In that case, you shouldn’t blame anyone else
when you’ve dug your own grave, Erica.
“Mrs. Garner, do you want to press charges against Erica?” she asked Wanda. “I’ll pay for all your legal fees if you
do.”

“B-But I’ve also blackmailed her for a million. I’ll be put behind bars too, won’t I?” asked Wanda fearfully.
“You may have indeed blackmailed her, but you didn’t receive a single penny from her. I can have the lawyer
defend you so that you’ll receive the most lenient sentence. But if you do press charges, Erica and her birth father
will have to spend at least ten years in prison,” Anastasia explained in detail.

Wanda was naturally shell-shocked and beyond furious when she had two near-death encounters. Therefore, she
instantly agreed with little consideration. “Okay, Miss Anastasia. We’ll do as you say. I want to press charges against
her. I want the father and daughter to be put behind bars.”
“That security guard is also their accomplice. No one should be spared,” Wanda said with red rimmed eyes. Poor
Mrs. Garner, having to suffer this kind of torment when she’s at this age.
“I’ll dig into the guard. Don’t you worry,” uttered Anastasia to comfort her. “As long as you’re willing to press
charges, none of them will be able to escape.”
Anastasia’s hatred for them was naturally just as intense. Not only had Naomi brought her daughter along with her

childhood and adolescent years helpless, alone, and aggrieved. She, too, couldn’t let go of this grievance.
In no time, Wanda made a report to the police, who immediately looked into her incident from that morning and
also declared Erica and Patrick wanted.
Anastasia, on the other hand, stood behind the window of Wanda’s ward and watched her relate her mishaps. Erica
will be paying a heavy price for her misdeeds, she thought, and all of this was due to her mother’s failed parenung.
This time, it’d be too late for Naomi to regret her actions. That was if she even felt guilty.
Speaking of which, it had been a long time since Anastasia visited her stepmother. Since she happened to be
available, why not let Naomi know of her precious baby girl’s fate and that Anastasia’s father had awoken?
In the detention house, Naomi had been brought to the visiung room, and when she saw the classy, stunning
Anastasia through the bars, she lunged forward agitatedly. “Anastasia, Anastasia, are you here to bail me out? I’m
sorry, Anastasia. I’ve learned my lesson now. Please drop the charges! Please, I beg of you.”
