Harry rushed forward , grabbing Lilian by the neck with a vice – like grip . “ You’re so evil ! ”

Lilian’s breath was cut off in an instant . The suffocating pain caused her face to turn red , but she just laughed hysterically . “ I banished the girl you’ve treated like your life’s purpose in the countryside when she was young . She’s endured so much hardship . You’ve failed your mission ! The true heiress should be my daughter , Jessica ! She’s the real heiress ! ”
Harry glared at Lilian in disgust , his fury boiling over . At that moment , he wanted nothing more than to strangle her . “ You blasted wench , you’ve ruined me ! I’m going to kill you right now !!
His grip tightened , and Lilian felt herself slipping toward the edge of consciousness .
Yet , she couldn’t die .
She refused to give on .
With shaking hands , Lilian groped around and found an ashtray . She grabbed it and swung it with all her might , smashing it against Harry’s head .
Blood splattered everywhere .
A stream of blood trickled down Harry’s face , and his grip loosened . His body collapsed to the ground .
Harry fell .
Lilian clutched at her neck , gasping for air . The feeling of having escaped death left her trembling with fear .
She looked down at Harry , lying in a pool of blood . “ Honey ? Honey ? ”
But Harry had already passed out .
“ Honey , I really love you , but you’ve betrayed me ! Now , Jessica is my everything . I won’t let anyone stand in my daughter’s way , not even you . So this … this is on you ! ”
Just then , footsteps echoed from outside . Stanley and Wendy had returned .
Lilian froze . They were here !
What should she do now ?
Outside , Stanley and Wendy had already come upstairs . Wendy had just been forced to drink a bowl of chicken soup and was hurrying back to prepare the antidote .
“ Mr. Hawk , you can go now . You don’t have to stay here with me , ” Wendy said .
Stanley looked at her with concern . “ Wendy , I need to stay here with you . I’ll only be at ease if I’m right here . ”
Just then , Horace walked over . “ Hello , there . ”
Wendy turned to Horace . “ Mr. Larson . ”
“ How’s the antidote coming along ? ” Horace asked .
“ I’m still working on it- ”
Before Wendy could finish , a sudden scream echoed from inside . “ Ah ! ”
Wendy immediately stood up . “ What’s happening ? ”
“ Let’s go see , ” Horace said .
Wendy , Stanley , and Horace rushed into the room . They quickly found Harry lying motionless on the floor .

Lilian sobbed . “ I don’t know what happened ! When I came in , he was already lying here . It seems like he hit his head on the table . ”
Wendy immediately moved closer . “ I’ll check his pulse . ”
But Lilian stopped her . “ No need . The doctor’s on his way ! ”
At that moment , a doctor ina white coat rushed in . “ Quick , hurry and get Mr. Crone out of here ! I’ll take over the resuscitation . ”
The servants lifted Harry’s body , and Lilian quickly followed them out of the room .
Before leaving , she turned to Wendy . “ Hurry and make the antidote for Jessica . I need to take care of my husband ! ”
