Chapter 366
Anastasia, after finishing a hearty meal, usually felt sleepy, but an annoying bloating in her belly disrupted her sleep, making her irritable.
As Anastasia tossed and turned, Herman sensed her restlessness and woke up. His arm draped over her belly. He asked softly, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Anastasia rolled over again. Her legs curled up. She replied, “My belly’s bloated. It’s uncomfortable.”
Bloating during pregnancy is a normal occurrence. Herman planted a tender kiss on Anastasia’s cheek.
While he couldn’t ease her physical discomfort, he could certainly soothe her mood.
Indeed, this affectionate gesture filled Anastasia with sweetness. The couple lay on their sides, facing each other.
Holding his face, Anastasia returned his kiss, smiling. “I feel better now.”

Anastasia closed her eyes, nuzzling against his chest. “I know you worry about my health. But unlike you, I’m excited about our baby’s arrival. I daydream about whether it will be a handsome boy like you or a beautiful girl. If it’s a girl, we’ll call her Little Candy. If it’s a boy…”
“We’ll call him Little Brst,” Herman finished with a laugh. “He’s causing you trouble already, so he’s a little brat.”
Anastasia giggled. “That’s not the way to talk about your own son.”
He pulled her into his arms. His chin was resting on her head. His voice was deep and soothing. “Anastasia, I fear losing you.”
At that moment, he wasn’t a billionaire – he was just a husband worried about his wife.
“God will look after us,” Anastasia assured him. She was full of hope for the future. Every day, their baby staying inside her made her feel more secure. “Once we get to the seventh month, everything will be fine.”
Herman wanted to say that there was no need to gamble with her life, that he didn’t need a child to carry on his legacy, and that he only wanted a life with Anastasia. But he swallowed his words. He didn’t want to dampen her spirits.
“Let’s sleep.” Herman kissed Anastasia’s forehead. He had started delegating his business responsibilities to Flynn, so he could be there for Anastasia.
“Okay.”
Just as Anastasia was drifting off to sleep, a jarring ringtone pierced the silence. The sudden noise made her heart beat fast as she sat up. “Herman, could you get my phone? See who’s calling.”
Herman also got up, fetched her phone from the bedside table and handed it to her.
“Aunt Cynthia?” Anastasia was surprised. “Why is she calling me this late?”

While mumbling to herself, she answered the call. A panicked voice echoed from the other end. “Anastasia, please help Gianna. The police just took her
away…”
Cynthia’s voice was filled with despair.
Anastasia felt the tension too. “The police? What happened?”
Cynthia explained that Gianna had had a conflict with Joey, who had fallen from the second floor. The paramedics had taken him away, and the Edmunds family had reported Gianna to the police.
Cynthia was calling Anastasia for help, hoping that Herman could use his influence to help bail Gianna out.
It was almost midnight and Cynthia was begging for help. Anastasia couldn’t refuse. She glanced at Herman, who nodded in agreement to help. Anastasia reassured Cynthia, “Alright, Cynthia. Don’t worry. I’ll have Herman go over,”
After hanging up, Anastasia looked worried. “From what she said, the Edmunds are pressing charges against Gianna for causing injury due to negligence. If Joey doesn’t pull through, it could be even more serious. Gianna might end up in jail.”
Herman replied, “I’ll go over and see what’s going on. You should rest. I’ll be back soon.”
“Okay.”
