Chapter 366

Anastasia, after finishing a hearty meal, usually felt sleepy, but an annoying bloating in her belly disrupted her sleep, making her irritable.

As Anastasia tossed and turned, Herman sensed her restlessness and woke up. His arm draped over her belly. He asked softly, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Anastasia rolled over again. Her legs curled up. She replied, “My belly’s bloated. It’s uncomfortable.”

Bloating during pregnancy is a normal occurrence. Herman planted a tender kiss on Anastasia’s cheek.

While he couldn’t ease her physical discomfort, he could certainly soothe her mood.

Indeed, this affectionate gesture filled Anastasia with sweetness. The couple lay on their sides, facing each other.

Holding his face, Anastasia returned his kiss, smiling. “I feel better now.”

Herman smirked, running his fingers through her hair. His dark eyes gazed at her. “Anastasia, having you in my life is the only thing I want.”
