Chapter 460

Anastasia's words made Herman's eyes flicker, his hand holding the chopsticks frozen mid-air.

He looked up at her, meeting her icy gaze, and his heart ached.

Taking a deep breath, Herman said, "Anastasia, let's eat first."

Anastasia could see his struggle and pain. She didn't want to push him, but she just couldn't help it.

She averted her eyes, not taking the chopsticks from Herman's hand, and instead picked up a new pair for herself.

As Anastasia ate, tears fell into her meal. She swallowed her food along with her tears.

The tears tasted bitter and salty.

Anastasia ate in silence, not leaving a single bit, even when she was full. She kept eating, punishing herself, hoping that eating more would make her feel better faster.

She had no idea how heartbreaking this was for Herman to watch.

Herman poured her a glass of water and said, "Take a walk after eating. Don't lie down right away; it's not good for your health."
