Chapter 566 You’ll Never Know if You Don’t Try

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

After William was sent to the City Hospital, the doctor immediately gave him first aid. During this time, Natasya also drove to the hospital.
William was sent to the ward after the first-aid treatment, and she rushed over.
After she asked someone to inquire about the information, she sat in the car and thought for a while. Then, she called Devon, “Dad, I have already arrived at the hospital. William is still here for emergency treatment. He has a high fever that is not going away, and he’s still in a coma.”
“Is that so? What are you going to do now?” he asked.
“Of course I’m going to look for an opportunity to give him the medicine, but there’s a problem. First, I have to get close to him. Second, I have to let the person who saved him believe that I can stay alone with him. Dad, did you know that the person who saved William was from the Floyd family?”
Devon was shocked, “The Floyd family?”
“Yes, he’s Fandrey’s bodyguard. I saw him abroad accompanying him all the time. His name is Sammuel Hawk, and Fandrey trusts him a lot.”
“It’s not good if you’re up against the Floyd family. They’re from William’s grandfather’s side. If you expose yourself, it’ll be terrible for you.”
“Here’s what I think, I’ll never know if I don’t try. I’ll pretend to be William’s girlfriend to get close to him. Then, I’ll give him the medicine before he wakes up, so that he can only remember me.”
Devon was not so optimistic about it, “Natasya, you have to prepare well. If you want to replace Valeria and be his favorite woman, you have to make some preparations. First of all, you have to have enough time to brainwash him, and you have to keep watch on him until he wakes up. Sammuel won’t give you this opportunity.”
“I know, I’ve thought about it. I’ll say that I’m his girlfriend. When I was abroad, I often hung out with William and Richard. Sammuel has seen me with him before so I think he will believe me.”
Natasya didn’t hide anything from Devon, “Dad, I’ve done this trick before. Nothing will happen. Don’t worry.”
“You’ve done it before? What did you do?” he was very surprised.
“Dad, when I went to hang out with Richard and Michael, Abbie thought that I was interested in her brother, so she hated me and always prevented me from approaching him. I was angry, so I schemed against her. She got into a car accident, and I let her take this medicine. She doesn’t remember Michael until now.”
“I see. Abbie doesn’t remember Michael, but she remembers the others?” he asked.
“Yes, I brainwashed her when she was in a coma. I said that Michael was a good-for-nothing bad person. At that time, I was worried that it would be useless but I didn’t expect that she really forgot everything about Michael after she woke up.”
“Is that so? But, Natasya, this is completely different from Abbie. This is not a high-tech medicine but just an ancestral medicine that’s been passed down. It’s actually just a type of poison, and I don’t know how long its effect will last.”
“What do you mean? Its effect will wear off?” she retorted.
“Indeed. But after all, no one has had the time to verify it. There are two obstacles in front of you now. The first is you have to convince Sammuel that you’re William’s girlfriend before you can get close to him. The second is that you have to stay by his side all the time and be the first person he sees when he wakes up.”
He paused for a moment and continued to say…
“What I’m worried about now is that Sammuel will not give you any chances. This is not simply a memory loss effect. This lets him remember you and fall in love with you. Unlike Abbie, who forgot Michael, you need to let William remember your name deeply in his mind. You have to accompany him and constantly talk about your love story with him. The first person he sees when he wakes up is you. Are you sure you have time to do this?”
“That’s not a problem. Since I’m William’s girlfriend, I have to keep accompanying him. I have time.”
“Hey, this is not a small matter. You really have to plan well. If you expose yourself, the consequences will be bad,” he said worriedly.
“Dad, now is the best time. I won’t have this chance again. I’ll definitely seize this opportunity,” after she finished talking confidently, she suddenly remembered something, “Dad, please arrange for someone to fake William’s death. Let Valeria and the others stop looking for him.”
“I know. His clothes are out anyway. I’ll find a corpse to pretend to be him. Let’s get through this first.”
He continued, “It’s easy to find a corpse, but we need something of his that is more personal. Otherwise, they wouldn’t believe it so easily, would they?”
“That’s easy. I’ll get all the stuff from William. Wait for my good news. I’ll go and see William to win Sammuel’s trust.”
After she hung up the phone, she adjusted her mood and walked towards the hospital building.
She pretended to be there for visitation. When she passed by William’s ward, she acted like it was a pure coincidence to make eye contact with Sammuel who was anxiously waiting by William’s side.
He was stunned when he saw her. A look of surprise appeared on her face as well. She was originally here for William, so she immediately started her act.
She acted as if she suddenly saw William lying on the hospital bed and barged in. Immediately, she cried to William who was unconscious on the hospital bed, “William! What’s wrong with you? Why are you here?”
Sammuel recognized her. In the past, when William was abroad with Richard and Michael, they hung out together all day long in pubs and Natasya was always around William. Hence, Sammuel fell for her act and believed that it was a coincidence for her to find William there.
She cried sadly and looked at William with deep romantic emotions. Sammuel thought that it was real, so he could only comfort her.
Her ability to adapt to circumstances was top-tier. She lied to Sammuel and said that she was on a business trip to the area. She also claimed that William had been bullied by Charles and Savannah. Now that the Howard family had fallen into Charles’ son’s hands, Hayden disliked him very much.
Sammuel did hear that the Howard Group was now under Andrew’s control and that Charles and Savannah had always disliked William. Coupled with Natasya’s talent in acting, Sammuel let his guard down around her.
She stayed behind to take care of William and her goal was clear. She secretly hid the ring on his finger while Sammuel was not paying attention.
