His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1318

Anastasia did not know what was wrong with her. Over the years, she had sought help from mainstream specialists and healers of alternative medicine. She even tried going to the gym. However, nothing could solve her problem.

The truth was, besides being obese, she was weak and would easily pass out.

According to alternative medicine practitioners, she lacked vitality, while the specialists claimed she was suffering from hormonal imbalances. There were several diagnoses and proposed treatments, but none worked.

Her father had not restricted what she ate at first, but seeing her getting in worse shape over the last two years, he anxiously decided to treat her the way he ran his department and started to enforce a strict diet plan for her.

He thought soldiers were trained by controlling their diet and making them exercise. Although Anastasia could not undergo physical training due to her health problem, he could control what she ate, thinking she would surely slim down by eating little.

It was effective for the first few days, and Anastasia lost nearly 11 pounds in half a month. However, the progress stopped, and she even started to gain weight instead.

Cameron was both upset and anxious. He concluded that his daughter had been eating behind his back or the diet plan was not strict enough. He even thought she should eat even less.

For the past two years, Anastasia grew increasingly unhappy with her life. If she had not reserved that dress for her birthday and subsequently met Lily, she would remain stuck in her own world.

That blueberry mousse Lily shared with her was the highlight of her day. Therefore, Anastasia had an indescribable sense of trust toward Lily, who made her feel calm and wish she could be her savior.

After roughly hearing about Anastasia’s story, Lily thought it was almost what she had assumed. However, she could not help but think that such severe restrictions would only make one crave food more because anything that defied human nature would not last long.

“Lily…” Anastasia said, “I’m treating you as a friend since I have none. I feel connected to you, and your words always struck a chord with me. You have never looked down on me or curried favor with me. Furthermore, I think what you said made a lot of sense. Will you help me?”
