Chapter 206
Being as smart as she was, Madeline obviously knew what Anastasia was concerned about. Anastasia wasn’t foolish but didn’t want to cause trouble.
“Alright.” Madeline nodded, speaking softly. “Anastasia, can I hug you? You and your mom look so alike.”
Anastasia frowned and remained silent. It was really just a small request.
“Annie, take care of yourself. Your mom had a tough life. You should live well Madeline said, embracing Anastasia willingly.
Outside the door, Felicia secretly took a photo of Madeline hugging Anastasia and sent it to Naomi.
Naomi couldn’t stand Madeline, and now Anastasia was
asia was getting involved with her, looking so close. Naomi was sure to lose her mind, overwhelmed by impulsiveness.
Felicia said, “Mrs. Lopez, did you see that? Isn’t that the woman Mr. Lopez is involved with outside?
Felicia secretly called Naomi, embellishing the story. I saw Anastasia acting all chummy with her like they’ve known each other forever. I heard them talking about Alastor, shares, inheritance, and stuff… Are they up to something against Alastor!”
“From the very start, Anastasia approached Alastor with a plan. Could she be the spy that woman placed by his side?” Felicia whispered.
On the other end. Naomi was so angry she couldn’t say a word. Felicia’s lips curled slightly. She knew Naomi’s weak spot. With this, Anastasia was certainly screwed.
Returning to the ward with a cold sneer, Felicia was waiting for the drama to unfold. She was curious to see how Naomi would handle Anastasia this Time.
In Anastasia’s ward, once Madeline left, it was just Anastasia’s again. Sitting by the window, Anastasia held her phone, feeling a little restless.
She opened Jason’s contact, wanting to call him but hesitated. She wondered if Kimberly would pick on Jason.
Rubbing her temples in frustration, Anastasia felt unsure of what to do. “Why is Kimberly suddenly so obsessed with Jason? she thought.
As it was getting close to mealtime, Jason still hadn’t returned. Anastasia felt a bit lost. During her hospital stay, her spirits were low, deep in the sorrow of losing her baby.
Jason stayed with her all the time, afraid she’d become despondent over the loss of her baby.
In truth, Anastasia had her ways of coping. Maybe it was because of her illness that she could see things clearly. With the baby’s departure, it meant the bond wasn’t strong enough.
Her body had been too frail to provide the nutrition needed for the baby to grow and develop.
After waking up from the anesthesia, the doctor told Anastasia that even if the miscarriage hadn’t happened now, the baby would still not have made it, as a later scan would have shown congenital development issues.
Whether the doctor was trying to comfort her or not, Anastasia knew that it was all because of her own health.
“Oh, haven’t you eaten anything!” The nurse came in to check on her and asked, “Didn’t that cute guy who was with you come today?”
Anastasia was taken aback for a moment and shook her head
The nurse quietly asked, “Can I ask if that cute guy is your boyfriend, or is the guy in the suit from last night your boyfriend?”
Anastasia was momentarily dazed and not sure how to answer that question.
“Neither…Anastasia shook her head.
The nurse was taken aback and then gave an awkward smile. “So, that cute guy, the one in casual clothes, does he have a girlfriend?”
The nurse felt a bit embarrassed. It was clear she had a crush on Jason. Anastasia was quiet for a long time. She had to admit that Jace had grown up, and indeed he looked good now.

In six years, Jason’s transformation was remarkable. “He…” Anastasia hesitated.
“I’ve got a crush,” Jason panted, holding a lunch box as he stood at the door, clearly winded from running. He was probably worried Anastasia be hungry.
The nurse’s face turned bright red. Tm sorry. With that, she quickly ran out.
Anastasia instinctively clenched her fingers. “You’re back. Where did you go?” she asked sofily.
“Didn’t you ask me to go with Kimberly to pick up the car?” asked Jason.
“No, I didn’t,” Anastasia said, puzzled.

“Oh. Jason put down the lunchbox, wiped it with a towel, and handed it to Anastasia to wipe her hands. “It wasn’t you who told her to use money to embarrass me, was it?”
