Chapter 249

“I don’t believe it.” Anastasia’s face was full of disbelief. She had just been diagnosed as infertile, and

now he was telling her he was infertile too. What on earth was going on?

To convince her, Herman said, in a deep voice, “Anastasia, I should’ve told you this earlier. I’m sorry for

keeping it from you. Two months ago, during the company’s medical check-up, I wanted to tell you but I

just couldn’t find the right time.”

“Two months ago?” Anastasia asked skeptically. Had he been diagnosed before she was hospitalized?

“Yeah.” Herman’s deep-set eyes stared at her, “Anastasia, if you can’t accept this, I’ll understand any

decision you make. If you want a divorce, I’ll give you the house as compensation. After all, it’s your

right.”

Before he could finish, she threw herself into his arms, holding onto him tightly, “I’m not going to divorce

you. Who said anything about divorce? You promised to stick with me until we’re old and grey, to take

care of me for the rest of my life. How dare you go back on your word.”

Even though she had entertained the idea of divorce countless times, and was mentally prepared for it,

when he brought it up, she couldn’t bear the thought. All her thoughts of divorce was defeated by her

reluctance to let him go.

Her reaction was just as he had anticipated it would be. Herman looked down at the girl in his arms, à

smile playing at the corner of his mouth. He knew Anastasia had been considering divorce. He could

tell she had been conflicted recently, so he suggested this, hoping to help her untangle her feelings.

Herman gently stroked Anastasia’s back, his voice deep and soothing, “Really, no divorce? You sure

about this? If you want a divorce, the house you’re living in now will be yours.”

“No, no divorce.” Anastasia held onto him tightly, “Even if you give me ten houses, I won’t divorce you.”

Hearing her words, a smirk appeared on Herman’s face where Anastasia couldn’t see. He had a

mischievous glint in his eyes. Since the topic had come this far, Anastasia decided not to hide anything

from him any longer. She sat up from his embrace, looked at him and said, “Herman, there’s something

I’ve been wanting to tell you.”

He gently smoothed her hair, his voice deep and magnetic, “Mm, go ahead. I’m listening.”:

His voice was really nice to listen to, deep like a cello, clear, and full of texture. She had always loved

his voice; ever since they met on their blind date at the café, the thing that left the deepest impression

on her was his amazing voice.

His words, “I’m listening”, were filled with affection, giving Anastasia enough courage. She took a deep

breath and said, “Recently, I had a check-up too, and was diagnosed as infertile.”

Hearing this, even though he knew it already, Herman feigned surprise, “Anastasia, are you messing

with me? You’re not saying this just to comfort me, are you?”

“How could I be in the mood to mess with you? I wish it were false.” Anastasia said, “I thought you were

saying all this to comfort me.” She really thought so. If it weren’t for him telling her that he was

diagnosed with infertility two months ago, she wouldn’t have believed it.

Herman stayed silent for a while, as if digesting the news. Anastasia anxiously sneaked a peek at his

reaction. After a bit; Herman seemed to understand something. He chuckled and joked, “Seems like

we’re truly made for each other. This way, no one can complain about the other.”

Anastasia hesitated and said, “There’s something else, Herman. Do you remember I once told you that

I lost some of my memory?” “Yes, I remember.” Herman said. He already knew what she was going to

say. This silly girl, her mental knot was finally untied.

Anastasia said hesitantly, “I remembered some stuff recently. Four years ago, I had a child.”

When she finished saying the last word, Anastasia felt a huge weight lifted off her chest. It wasn’t as

hard to say it as she thought. She felt relieved now, just waiting for Herman’s judgment. No need to feel

guilty or anxious anymore.
