Chapter 119
For Anastasia, her daily routine consisted of having three meals a day, washing and scrubbing, and
taking care of household chores like a
full-time wife. After returning home, she diligently cleaned up the house and waited for her husband.
It was an endless wait.
She waited at home, waiting for her husband to come back.
She would greet him, asking whether he was tired, and gently prepare dinner for him.
Thinking about it now, she realized she used to live like a robot, not knowing how tired she was.
Anastasia sneered and reached out to help Alastor carry some groceries. But Alastor refused her help.
He insisted on carrying everything on his own.
Fortunately, there was another seat around. “Take the seat.”
Anastasia asked Alastor to sit down.
She looked as if she was going to get car sick.
Alastor was a little unhappy. “How can a gentleman sit when a woman is standing?”
Hearing that, Anastasia sat down without hesitation.
And so, Alastor stood like a resentful woman, holding bags of groceries in his hands for four stops.
When they finally got home, Alastor’s face was visibly sullen.

Anastasia took the ingredients from Alastor and silently washed the vegetables before cutting them.
“Let me try.” Alastor took the kitchen knife and wanted to cut the asparagus.
Slicing the asparagus was supposed to be an easy task. Unfortunately, Alastor wasn’t skilled at it.
After all, how could people who had never held a kitchen knife be able to cut vegetables skillfully all of
a sudden?
Therefore, it was no surprise that Alastor cut himself.
Anastasia’s face darkened even more. “Will you stop making trouble? If you want to eat, get out now!”
Anastasia was a little impatient as she thought, “Is Alastor crazy today? He’s so annoying.”
Seeing Anastasia getting impatient, Alastor tapped on the table unhappily. “Were you like this
previously? My hands hurt.”
Anastasia took a deep breath and gritted her teeth.
“He can do whatever he wants,” she thought.
Her phone on the dining table suddenly rang. It was Jason.
Anastasia wanted to get her phone, but Alastor grabbed it first.
Alastor answered the phone.
Anastasia wanted to snatch the phone away from him, but Alastor raised
his hand and trapped her in his arms.
Their position became extremely intimate.
“Give me the phone!” Anastasia gritted her teeth.
Alastor ignored Anastasia and said to Jason over the phone, “I won’t divorce Anastasia. You can give
up.”
After saying that, Alastor hung up Anastasia’s phone.
Anastasia thought Alastor was crazy.
Since she terminated her pregnancy, Anastasia felt something was wrong with Alastor.
She wondered if it was probably because Alastor hated her so much that he decided to retaliate
against her in another way.
“Don’t go too far.” Anastasia took back her phone angrily, ignored Alastor’s finger injury, turned around,
and went to the living room to return Jason’s call.
However, Jason didn’t answer the phone. She wondered if he was angry.
“He doesn’t answer your call?” Alastor leaned against the door frame of the kitchen and seemed to be
gloating.
Anastasia ignored Alastor and felt that he must have been mentally ill.
“My hand!” Alastor pointed to the cut on his finger.
“Haha. I’m sure that if you wait a little longer, the wound would have healed,” Anastasia said
sarcastically.
“Would you talk to me in this way before?” Alastor was a little unhappy. “You should continue your
performance of being a good wife, just like you have maintained for the past four years.”

“You don’t have to remind me.” Anastasia looked at Alastor. “Give me a deadline. I want the paper
contract!”
Anastasia didn’t want to play pretend with Alastor here.
She wanted Alastor to specify the exact time when she could end the relationship and obtain a divorce
certificate with him. “I want you to indicate in the contract that no matter what happens, you are not
allowed to target Jason. Our relationship automatically ends at the end of the contract or if Jason gets
hurt because of you. The other party should agree to the divorce unconditionally.”
Alastor looked at Anastasia with a gloomy face. “Do what you should do.” Anastasia assumed Alastor
agreed to her condition. “Will you draw up the contract, or will I?”
“Tomorrow, I’ll have my assistant send you the contract,” Alastor said gloomily.
-After a very unpleasant dinner, Anastasia had planned to go to bed early. The master bedroom was
given to Alastor, and Anastasia planned to sleep in the second bedroom.
However, she didn’t know what was wrong with Alastor as he pulled her into his arms and trapped her
in the corner before giving her a smooch. “You’ve agreed to go back to life before, so we should fulfill
our obligations as husband and wife, just like before.”
Anastasia clenched her hands and, for the first time, felt humiliated when she was touched by him.
“Let me go…”
“Anastasia…” Alastor suddenly said in a hoarse voice. “Let’s have another child.”
