Chapter 518

Monica thought Anastasia was just pulling her leg until Anastasia handed over her stall inventory and car keys, urging her to drive them back. That's when Monica realized Anastasia was dead serious. Monica grabbed Anastasia's arm. "Who are you sneaking around with? I haven't seen you in ages, and I feel totally out of the loop. No wonder you've been looking so radiant. Someone's been keeping you happy." Anastasia's cheeks flushed pink as she glanced at a car parked nearby. She teased, "My lover's here to sweep me off my feet."

Monica's eyes followed Anastasia's gaze, and she exploded with expletives. "Holy smokes, I get it now. You're rekindling an old flame. You two got divorced, huh?"

"That's why it's all hush-hush for now. Take care of this stuff for me, will you? And tell my mom I won't be coming home tonight."

"Your mom knows about this?" Monica chewed her lip. "I really have been out of the loop."

Anastasia chuckled. "You back online yet?"

Seeing Anastasia genuinely happy, Monica didn't want to pry. She just said, "Looks like you're totally hung up on that guy." Anastasia smiled. "I've accepted my fate."

Monica replied, "Gianna left us too soon. She'd flip her lid if she saw you two together now."

Anastasia shushed her. "We're not exactly official, I better get going."

Monica waved her off. "Go on, you traitor to friendship."
