Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 758
Anastasia shot a look at that woman, whose heart instantly clenched upon her gaze. The woman hurriedly corrected herself with
a smile. “Mrs. Presgrave, please enlighten us.”
“I trust that everyone has heard of a matter that just happened within the past few days. Dare I say, it was quite a despicable
thing to do. Liam and Lorelai Presgrave have stolen from the hospital and attempted to bear a child with my husband‘s genes by
quietly giving birth in another country. After our investigation, Liam will be facing imprisonment of at least ten years while Lorelai
will be facing imprisonment of three years. From now on, Liam Presgrave‘s branch of the family will no longer be part of the
Presgraves while terminating them from any relations with our family.”
At that moment, there was an outburst in the room and everyone continued to put on an act of indignance.
“That was such a despicable thing to do. How dare they do that! This is outrageous!”
“That‘s right. Lorelai used to be such a promising young one and she obtained such high qualifications too. I can‘t believe that
she‘s actually an ugly and despicable person within. They tried to break up your family, Mrs. Presgrave, so they deserve this
punishment.”
The crowd in the room was full of curses for Liam and Lorelai. Soon enough, Anastasia put a stop to that and spoke with an air
of authority in a clear voice.
“I hope that each of you will cease interaction with Liam and his members of the family. At the same time, I would like to use this
matter to seriously inform all of you here one thing. If any of you here dared to disrupt my family, ruin the reputation of my family
members, or do anything that would harm the safety of my family members, there will be consequences. The least that could

happen to you guys would be expulsion from the Presgrave Family while the worst would be imprisonment. I do not wish to see
such a matter that could result in the downfall of the Presgraves.”
“Mrs. Presgrave, your words make perfect sense. We lead a great life with the help of the Presgrave Family, so what else could
we ask for?”
“Yes, that‘s right, Mrs. Presgrave. We‘re really proud to be able to work alongside you and to maintain our close family ties,
which have been passed on since more than a hundred years ago.”
Jacob clenched his fist under the table and trembled once he released it. That was because two days before, his father had
mentioned about joining the Board of Directors of Presgrave Group. However, it looked like this matter was completely
unachievable right now. Anastasia was warning them to refrain from seeking things that did not belong to them from the
Presgrave Family.
“I may be young in age and have plenty of things to learn, but that doesn‘t mean that I‘m weak–willed and a pushover. I hope that
none of you here will get to experience first–hand how I handle things because I would be glad to just maintain a peaceful
relationship with everyone,” Anastasia spoke calmly.
In the past, Harriet‘s identity as the head woman of Presgraves held her back from doing plenty of things, but she soon realized
that there was no point in maintaining the Presgrave Family. As such, Harriet had instructed her to keep a distance from this
bunch of people if necessary. Furthermore, Anastasia was told that she could easily sever ties with them and live a peaceful life
without being disrupted.
As soon as Anastasia‘s words hit, everyone in the room was immediately caught by surprise and sensed the polite warning
behind the words of the family‘s young mistress. They were aware that she had broken the original close ties of their families and
she no longer paid much heed to the link between their families and the Presgrave Family.
Presently, it was their turn to grasp tightly to their relationship with Anastasia. On the contrary, she was no longer the one
required to treat them well out of obligation.

After the meeting ended, several ladies from the older generation took the chance to build up a bond with Anastasia as they tried
to win her favor. However, she did not give them a chance and left immediately in her car.
Anastasia entered the backseat before Adriana asked, “Miss Tillman, do you want to go for a walk to clear your mind?”
“Yes. Let‘s go for a walk together,” Anastasia responded.
At that moment, her phone went off and she reached out to answer the call. “Hey.”
“Where have you disappeared to after the meeting?” asked Elliot from the other end. Clearly, he must have been looking for her.
“I just left and I‘m about to go for a walk to get some fresh air.”
“Okay. I‘ll make a lunch reservation and I‘ll see you for lunch then.”
“Sure.” Anastasia smiled.
“Adriana, re–route to the prison. I would like to meet someone there.” Anastasia suddenly changed her mind about taking a walk.
“To see Lorelai?”
“Yes,” she responded. Lorelai was still detained in prison at the moment.
Inside the lockup cell, Lorelai had lost her haughtiness as she remained curled up in
a corner with her long hair pulled into a ponytail behind her head. She was bare faced without any makeup on; all that was left
written on her face was frailty and weariness...
