Chapter 568 How Could You Be So Cruel

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

Hardy sneered after hanging up, “This woman is insatiable. She wants to use me.”
“Mr. Anthony, are you going to listen to her?”
“She’s right. We should ask someone to keep an eye on this. As long as we make sure that the arm is William’s, Richard and Marcus won’t continue the search anymore. They’ll probably try to find the rest of his body in the nearby areas. In that case, even if he has a chance to live, it’ll be useless.”
He sneered, “I’m going to make the next move first. First, I’m going to attack the Howard family and cause some internal chaos.”
“What do you want to do?”
“First, I’ll use the DNA test to prove that William is already dead. If Hayden dies after receiving the news, there won’t be anything to fear in the Howard family anymore. If he doesn’t die, he will definitely fight with the Saunders family terribly because they were related to both his son and daughter’s death. Then, I’ll be able to reap the benefits.”
“There’s still the Wolf Group and Richard,” Bevan reminded.
“Without William, the Wolf Group is not that terrifying. As for Richard, I fought with him head-on in a one-on-one fight, and we both suffered losses. He has to think about it. The Clark family will not agree to become enemies with me just for the sake of his friend who has passed.”
They continued chatting as they entered the villa. When they entered the living room, Paisley’s hysterical curses could be heard.
He quickly went upstairs and signaled Bevan to open the door. As the door was opened, Paisley, who had been locked for three days, rushed out.
She was about to go crazy. When she saw Hardy, she threw herself at him. “Murderer! You’re a murderer. I’ll fight you to death!”
He reached out his hand to control her, “Are you crazy?! How can you treat your brother like this for a man who doesn’t care about you at all?”
“Do you know how much I liked him? You clearly knew about it, yet you still wanted to kill him. How can you be so cruel?” she grabbed and bit him. It took Bevan and Hardy a while before they got her under control.
Bevan was looking for medication for Hardy, while he sat on the sofa looking at Paisley, who looked like a crazy woman. He sneered and said, “Do you think I’m that desperate to kill people? I’m telling you, he was going to kill me if I didn’t do anything about it first. Do you think you can stop him from dealing with me? Dream on! I’m telling you, if it weren’t for my plan, William, Lamont, and Richard would have teamed up, and we would be the ones to die!”
“He won’t show mercy to us. It’s impossible for you to marry him! Give it up!”
She collapsed on the sofa and cried bitterly. She knew that what he said was true. Even if she knew it, she still hated Hardy.
The reason why she was so eager to participate in this plan was that she could control William and own him. But now, he was gone.
She would rather see him alive. If she knew that he was going to die, she would have never gotten involved in this matter.
In the City Hospital, Natasya had completely won Sammuel’s trust, so she took care of William at a close distance.
She placed a wet towel on his forehead and sat next to him. She had prepared the medicine in her pocket, and now she was looking for a chance.
She desperately did not want him to wake up because she would not have a chance anymore after he did.
Luckily, he didn’t wake up and stayed like that until evening. Natasya came up with an excuse and asked Sammuel to go to dinner while volunteering to stay behind to take care of William.
After Sammuel left, she immediately took out the medicine in her pocket and put it into William’s mouth. Then, she poured some water into his mouth for him to swallow it.
After doing all that, she was relieved. She sat on the edge of the bed and kept talking bad about Valeria. She emphasized how much he loved her while telling him how ugly Valeria was.
After talking for more than an hour, Sammuel came back from dinner and brought her some too.
He did not know that she had evil intentions. Seeing her waiting by William’s sickbed with all her heart and soul, he really thought that they were deeply in love with each other.
His affability level for Natasya increased rapidly ever since she chose to stay behind to accompany him all night. Using the excuse of accompanying him, she sat by the bed and murmured about Valeria’s misfortune.
After a night without sleeping, she was also very tired. In the morning, the doctor came to check the room and measured William’s temperature, “His temperature has dropped compared to yesterday. This is a good thing.”
Natasya pretended to be happy and said, “Great! Doctor, do you know when he will wake up?”
“It’s hard to say. His unconsciousness probably has nothing to do with his high fever. I think it might be because he hit his head. We’ll know the specific reason after further examination.”
“So he won’t wake up in a short time?”
“That’s the situation,” the doctor also thought that she was his girlfriend, “You’ve been waiting for so long. Why don’t you rest for a bit? It’ll be unfortunate if he wakes up and you collapse instead.”
She had been acting the whole day yesterday, so she was exhausted. She needed to rest to replenish herself. If she was sure that he would not wake up soon, she had to go to sleep first.
Sammuel came over to take care of him and asked her to rest. She didn’t object and went to the parking lot.
After getting in her car, she called Devon, “Dad, I have given him the medicine.”
He did not expect her to succeed and was very surprised, “For real?”
“Why would I lie to you? Not only did I let him take the medicine, I also talked bad about Valeria to him all night. This was how Abbie forgot about Michael. I believe that he will certainly forget Valeria.”
She was a little proud, “Now, we’re just waiting for him to wake up, but the doctor said that he won’t wake up soon. Anyway, I have given him medicine, so I just need to stay by his side.”
Devon hesitated for a moment and said, “Natasya, William is different from Abbie. It won’t be as easy to control him. I’m worried that the pill may not work on him. Since you’ve succeeded, just go all out. I heard this from my grandfather when I was a child. He said that if the person who took the drug drank the blood of the person who drugged him, a blood alliance will form between the two people, and he’ll listen to you no matter what.”
She was overjoyed when she heard this, “Dad, he’ll listen to me if he drinks my blood?”
“Yes! But he should drink your blood the first thing after he wakes up. You must guarantee that you are the first person he sees. Are you sure that you have this opportunity?”
“Yes, I’m sure! Dad, I can’t talk any longer. I need to rest up. Then, I will guard him closely and wait for him to wake up.”
