Whispers Of Betrayal (Anastasia and Alastor)

Chapter 49

Anastasia looked at Alastor in shock and clenched her fingers tightly.

Anastasia was astonished to hear the name coming from Alastor.

“Jace… This shows that Alastor has investigated me for the purpose of divorcing me,” she thought to herself.

“Women shouldn’t be too headstrong, Anastasia” Alastor picked up the glass, put it aside, and continued to say, “That is the time for us to be honest and upfront with each other. I don’t want you to come looking for me, pleading for help later.”

Alastor said indifferently and thought, “That is my reminder to you-take up the good opportunity and consider it an exchange of resources. Don’t wait until you are at your wit’s end and have lost the chance before you come begging for me for help. Anastasia.”

How does it feel to have a blitz marriage with a woman that you haven’t loved for four years? And to think of your first love every day. Isn’t that agonizing, Alastor?”

Anastasia felt the burning sensation in her throat and the aching pain in her chest.

“What about you?” Alastor stood by the bed, his tall figure oozing an air of unspeakable gloom and cool indifference. He checked WhatsApp messages on his phone, looked up at Anastasia, and said again, “We’ve been married for four years. Do you know how often you’ve called out Jace’s name in the middle of the night?”

Anastasia’s heart tightened, and she took a deep breath.
