Room for You

Chapter 425

Chapter 425 Elliot didn’t know what to do with her. Just then, Anastasia hugged his neck and planted a kiss on his thin lips. “All peachy? I’ll go eat now.” With that, she smoothed her clothes and went out. Behind her, the man still looked majestic despite sitting on the carpet, and there was a hint of mischief on his handsome face. In another tea room at the end of the corridor, even though Hayley enjoyed the treatment as a guest and had a table full of food laid out before her, she was suffering inside.. Her existence here was like a joke. The servants looked like they respected her on the outside, but she knew that they were laughing at her behind her back! She hated Elliot for treating her like that, but she hated Anastasia even more; Anastasia must have whispered horrible things about her in Elliot’s ears, turning her into a vicious woman. Hayley took a deep breath, the hatred apparent in her eyes as a sneer crept onto her lips. She got up and walked out of the room, but a servant immediately reached out and stopped her. “Miss Seymour, Young Master Elliot insists that you have your meal here.”

“Can’t I go to the bathroom?” Hayley glared coldly at her, then strode toward a certain place. When she was here last time, she had the opportunity to tour the Presgrave Residence. She remembered faintly that Harriet’s medicine was kept in a specialized room on the first floor. She thought that since the Presgrave Residence housed such a large family, they probably wouldn’t install CCTVs inside their house. This would make her operation much easier. Just as expected, she didn’t spot any CCTVs around her. When she passed by the garden, she heard laughter coming from the main hall. It filled her heart with envy, for Anastasia was probably there as well. Hayley noticed that the servant was following her. Annoyance flashed across the depths of her eyes as she instantly walked further into the garden. The servant called after her, “Miss Seymour, please don’t run around. That’s not where the bathroom is.” Soon, Hayley managed to throw off the servant and emerged from another corridor. Now, all the servantsNôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

were gathered at the main hall to serve the guests, so the huge Presgrave Residence looked especially empty. A vicious feeling rose up in Hayley’s heart. Even if Harriet had no ill intentions toward her, she still hated that old woman. She hated how Harriet favored Anastasia over her without helping her get together with Elliot. As such, Hayley wouldn’t mind Harriet dying. She just wanted Anastasia to take the blame. Finally, Hayley found the storeroom on the first floor. As expected, she walked briskly over and found that it was unlocked. She opened the door and saw a few freezers inside, in addition to a row of shelves. However, Harriet’s usual medication was placed on a table, and a few medicine bottles were placed separately in a small basket. Hayley poured them out and studied them briefly before putting two similar types of pills inside. The pills were sleeping medications and also heart medications with complicated ingredients. If consumed over a long period of time, a person of Harriet’s age would experience problems soon enough. After swapping out the pills, Hayley immediately left the scene. Hayley passed by the garden once again, and when she saw the bustling on the other side, she suddenly felt the urge to go over as well. Didn’t Elliot ban her from meeting Anastasia? In that case, it was all the more reason for her to let Anastasia know that she was here. Hayley went closer to the main hall on purpose. When she saw two well-dressed ladies in front of her, she suddenly put a hand to her forehead and fell onto the floor. “Oh! Are you alright, miss?” Just as expected, one of the ladies rushed over to her. Hayley fainted right away, and she heard another lady say, “I’ll go get help.” At the table, Anastasia was sampling the desserts when she heard a lady rush in, saying, “Come quick! Someone just fainted. Hurry up and send her to the Elliot had just excused himself to answer a call, and Anastasia was sitting next to Nigel. When they heard the shouts, Nigel was the first to get up. Anastasia followed him out. Nigel looked at Hayley and asked, a little stunned, “Who even is she?!”

“Just ignore that and send her to the hospital right away,” Nigel’s mother urged. When Anastasia saw Hayley lying on the floor, she was instantly shocked. She didn’t expect that Hayley would be here as well. Just then, someone shouted, “She’s waking up.”
