Whispers Of Betrayal (Anastasia and Alastor)

Chapter 37

“Why else would that happen? Who else can make the village head’s son kneel and beg me?” Anastasia had always thought that Alastor was the one who helped her, so she was very grateful to him, promising him a blitz marriage.

She once wanted favoritism and a future that she could look forward to.

Anastasia’s phone vibrated. She glanced at it, noticing a call from Zeke.

“Anastasia, I’m Sienna. Dad is in trouble. He is in the hospital now and has a brain hemorrhage, needing surgery. Please deliver us some money,” Sienna’s anxious voice came from the phone.

Sienna was not anxious because she was worried about Zeke. Instead, she was anxious for Anastasia to send her the money.

Anastasia breathed hard and said in a hoarse voice. “Which hospital? What’s going on?”

“The emergency department of Hork General Hospital. Please come quickly.”
