His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1428

Looking on as Anastasia gulped down the herbal soup, Lily handed her a napkin and took the empty bowl from her. “Can you handle the taste?”

Wiping the corners of her mouth, Anastasia nodded. “It’s not bad!”

“Not bad?” Lily frowned. ‘Even the smell was so pungent. How could she still think it’s not bad?’

Seeing her doubtful look, Anastasia chuckled, then picked up a glass near her to take a sip of water and said, “I’ve had God knows how many weird medicines that taste worse than this. The bitter ones were still acceptable, but some were truly disgusting. I…”

Pausing, she waved to indicate that she better stop or she would throw up.

“You ate them to lose weight?” She could guess so, and Anastasia nodded.

“What else? Anyway, I suffered a lot before this, and looking back, I wonder why I should waste my effort. I might as well eat normally and perhaps become a 650-pound fatty and stay that way. Who knows? At least I didn’t have to go through all that.” She sighed. Although it happened long ago, she would feel sad whenever it was mentioned.

She had stomached all those sufferings, physical torments, and shame brought on by people’s stares over the years, but they would only grow milder and not go away.

Lily felt sorry for her. “You’ll get well. I’m sure you will!”

“Yes! I believe it too.”

After meeting Lily, she felt like God had opened a window for her and grew cheerful. Not only did she feel better, but she was also not as depressed as before. Anastasia felt like she was reborn and no longer herself. Rather, she felt as if she had a whole new self.
