Chapter 96
Monicaâs call finally went through.
Anastasia heard Monicaâs voice from the other end of the line but didnât know how to begin
âAna? Ana?â
Monica asked through the phone, âWhatâs up with you? Why are you calling me bright and early and then not saying anything? Did something happen? Did Herman do something to you?â
âYes!â Anastasia responded softly
Monica, on the other side of the line, immediately snapped, âAna, tell me what that jerk did to you. Iâm on my way to the beauty salon right now, but Iâll ditch that and come to youâ
Monica was a woman of action. Twenty minutes later, Anastasiaâs doorbell rang.
Anastasia opened the door, her walk was a little strange due to some intense activity prior
Monica noticed immediately, and fearing that Anastasia had been hurt, she anxiously asked, âAna, did Herman hit you? Does he have violent tendencies?â âHe didnât hit the âAnastasia replied, worried that if Monica kept quessing, she might call the cops on Herman. She blushed as she said, âMonica, I didnât bleed during you knowâ
Monica didnât catch on at first and asked loudly, âWhat do you mean you didnât bleed?â
âYou know that thing Anastasiaâs face turned even redder.
Finally understanding, Monica couldnât contain her excitement, Ana, did you and Herman finally?â
Anastasia nodded, and Monica burst with joy. âI knew it! Youâre too beautiful for him to resist. Youâve got Herman wrapped around your finger now. Youâre set, and I can stop worryingâ
Monica had put in a lot of effort to get them together. She was relieved to finally hear that they were a thing
If Herman really considered Anastasia his woman now, there was no way he could escape.
Anastasia had basically secured her position as Hermanâs wife. If she had a child, her position would be unshakable
Anastasia didnât quite understand Monicaâs implications and was a bit confused to see Monica more excited than she was.
Thinking about the lack of bleeding, Anastasia anxiously said. âMonica, isnât a woman supposed to bleed the first time you know? I didnât. Will Herman misunderstand?
Monica was brought back to reality, she had forgotten about that
âDid Herman react in any way when you didnât bleed?â
Anastasia thought about Hermanâs reaction, âHe didnât react. He just took a shower, kissed me, and went to work.â
Monica grew a bit worried when she heard that he didnât react. âWhatâs Herman trying to imply? Doesnât he care?â
In todayâs society, who didnât have a past lover? Finding a virgin nowadays might require the girl to have been groomed since childhood. Didnât Herman have a past lover? This kind of thing was pretty acceptable in todayâs society
So Monica reassured her, âAna, not all women bleed their first time, thatâs a fact. If Herman didnât react, he probably thinks itâs normal. Donât overthink it â Anastasia had also looked it up online and found that such situations were possible. But she was still worried it might lead to misunderstandings. Anastasia, still somewhat puzzled, told Monica about what Cason had said before.
âCason said some nonsense last time. He claimed I dropped out of school for another man and said some nasty things. Thatâs why Herman couldnât help but beat him up.â
Monica was taken aback. How did Cason know?
Anastasia did drop out of school because of another man, a man whose identity even Anastasia herself didnât know.
Anastasiaâs first time was taken away by that unknown man.
Years ago, after Cason went abroad for studies, Salma had a car accident. Money was needed for surgery and treatment. Anastasia earned money through part-time jobs and followed her classmates to a club to work
That was when Anastasia was drugged. When she woke up, she had no memory of what had happened.
It wasnât unther belly started to grow that she realized she was pregnant, but by then it was too late.
