Chapter 476

Monica, forever single and not particularly by choice, just couldn't get her head around all this love drama. Herman was standing by Anastasia, yet Anastasia, not wanting to complicate things for him, was ready to accept her fate. Monica looked at Anastasia, who seemed utterly defeated, and felt at a loss. How could she possibly reignite the spark in someone whose spirit seemed entirely crushed?

Her heart felt like it had turned to stone.

Visiting hours were up, and Monica had to leave. As she walked away, Anastasia remained calm-a far cry from the emotional turmoil she'd been in while in the hospital. The deep sorrow on her face had softened, and her bitterness seemed to have dissipated. With Granny Anita's passing, Anastasia's resentment had melted away, giving her a sense of release.

As Monica exited the precinct, she bumped into Gianna, who was just arriving.

Gianna asked, "Monica, how's Anastasia holding up?"

"It's hard to say. She's hanging in there for now," Monica replied, her words laden with unspoken thoughts. She couldn't tell if Anastasia's condition was good or bad. The situation was dire, but emotionally, Anastasia seemed genuinely relieved. Gianna, visibly anxious, pressed on, "What's the Salstrom family thinking? What's Herman's take on all this?"

"Ana said Herman will save her. As long as he's given his word, I think she'll be okay."

Disappointment flashed in Gianna's eyes when she heard Herman still intended to save Anastasia. "He's really going to save her? Even after she killed his grandma, he's not holding her accountable?"
