Chapter 1777


    Fabian questioned Anastasia, who nodded and pursed her lips.


    "Yes!"


    Without waiting for his reply, she said, "There’s no doubt that my father has been


    poisoned.Besides...don’t you know about it?"


    She asked probingly, but Fabian shouted, "How would I know?! I didn’t poison him, did I?!"


    He looked upset but did not avert his gaze, and this got Anastasia thinking.


    ‘Rhea was able to slowly poison me behind her parents’ backs at a young age, so I guess they wouldn’t


    know about what happened to dad either"


    In thest few days, the young woman had been ming herself.


    ‘ Why didn’t I pay more attention to dad? How could I let dad be her victim when I know how


    vicious and unreliable Rhea was? ‘I know it’s useless to feel bad about it now as I can''t turn back time,


    and Rhea can’te back to life.I only wish that Lily woulde up with the cure and dad could


    recover sooner"


    Thinking so, she looked toward Fabian and took a deep breath.


    "Don’t be mad, okay? I was only asking.I thought you''d know how he was poisoned since you hung out


    with him recently."


    "If I knew, would I have to ask you? I even..."


    He probably felt guilty that he had brought so many men over to make a scene, so he stopped himself


    from saying more.He coughed twice, then said, "Alright, now’s not the time to talk about that.Your


    father shouldn’t be lying here.Let’s send him to the hospital!"


    Fabian pulled out his cell phone as he spoke, "I’ll make the call."


    "No!"


    Reaching out her hand to stop him, Anastasia said, "My father isn’t a nobody.If this gets out, you know


    how serious the consequences will be.Furthermore..."

    She lowered her voice but sounded particrly solemn.


    "I heard the vine research project is in itsst phase.Even at the beginning, it was controversial, and


    many people seem upset that you took over the project.They are still eyeing it.If words get out that my


    father is seriously ill, then..."


    She did not borate further, but her gaze was meaningful.


    Although Anastasia had randomly used this as an excuse, Fabian was rmed.


    What she said struck the right chord with him.


    He did not like what she said, but he knew she was right.


    Although many had tried to curry favor with him, Fabian did not hire many outsiders or have any


    partners due to the nature of the project and the demands of Rhea and her research team.


    People who had sent him gifts were upset that they did not get a share of the project, but they dared


    not do anything because of Fabian’s rtionship with Cameron.


    Fabian initially thought he could rake in a huge profit through the project, and when hispany grew


    famous, he would not need to worry about these nobodies anymore.


    However, he did not expect his daughter to die.


    Rhea’s death was a massive blow to him.


    Other than losing a daughter, he knew Rhea was instrumental to the project.


    Also, would Cameron remain cooperative without Rhea and continue to help him? He was not sure


    about it.


    Therefore, on the pretext that it was Rhea’s funeral today, he had firste to vent his anger and


    frustration and probe.
