In Lucinda’s eyes, it was better to focus on her work than to waste her time on this.


    In the hospital.


    After the interview, as soon as the cameras stopped rolling, Presley stopped crying and smiled smugly.


    She had always despised Mario’s illegitimate daughter.


    When Eleanor was officially epted into the Turner family, Presley had been secretly wishing that Eleanor was dead.


    Now that Eleanor had nearly been beaten to death, Presley felt extremely happy.


    But her precious Jennifer was still in aa, so Eleanor was the sole heir for the time being.


    In order to protect the Turner family’s property from being snatched by other rtives, Presley had to pretend to dote on Eleanor in front of others.


    But this only served to make Presley hate Eleanor even more.


    Seeing Eleanor’s sicklyplexion, she couldn’t help but smile even wider.


    Satisfied, she turned around to leave, only to find Nathaniel standing by the door.

    “My poor, poor daughter.


    Not only was she beaten to a pulp, but she was also humiliated by that bitch.


    I’m just d that you’re here for her…”


    While she spoke, Presley managed to squeeze out a few tears.

    After Presley left, Nathaniel walked into the ward.


    Eleanor’s eyes lit up as soon as she saw him.


    She was so happy that she tried to sit up immediately.


    In doing so, she identally bumped the needle in her hand, which made her gasp in pain.


    It took her a great deal of effort not to show a ferocious expression in front of Nathaniel.


    After all, she needed to maintain her perfect image.


    “Be careful,” Nathaniel said with a frown.


    He walked up to her and sat down on a chair next to the bed.


    “Nate, it’s so good to see you.


    I really wouldn’t know what to do without you.


    ” As she spoke, she leaned closer to him, putting on the most pitiful expression she could muster.


    Subconsciously, Nathaniel subtly moved away from her.
