The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47 

Monica successfully convinced Anastasia to get in her car, and then she started talking nonsense. 

“Ana, I had a nightmare last night, scared the bejesus out of me, so I came to find you” 

Anastasia just looked at her, not saying a word, with a ‘you’ve got to be kidding me expression. 

Monica continued her rambling, hugging Anastasia tightly, sobbing and saying, “Ana, seriously, I dreamt that my boyfriend betrayed me and took all my money. Can you imagine how terrifying that is?” 

Monica was dating a guy three years younger than her. She never takes men over twenty–five seriously 

Her dating criteria were under twenty–five, over eighteen, handsome, sweet–talker, and obedient. 

“Well, that’s indeed scary How’s your boyfriend doing lately? Any signs of him planning to take all your money?” 

In reality, Anastasia didn’t believe Monica, she wasn’t born yesterday, but she was willing to listen to Monica’s nonsense, knowing that she meant no 

harm 

“He’s a good boy, Monica said. “By the way, where did you get your medical checkup?” 

“Hope Hospital” 

An hour later. 

They arrived at Hope Hospital. Anastasia had booked an appointment on her phone, and it was just her turn when they got to the hospital. 

The doctor gave Anastasia a checkup form, asked her to have a blood test, and examined her liver, gallbladder, spleen, and kidneys. 

Monica stayed with Anastasia throughout. Anastasia joked, “Look at you, all worried. People might think we’re a couple,” 

Monica replied, “If I were a guy, I’d definitely marry you. I wouldn’t let Herman get the chance.” 

Anastasia teased back. “Then be a man in your next life, I would marry you. I’ll go show the test result to the doctor.” 

“I’ll come too, Monica was worried inside. 

Ever since the incident a few years ago, whenever Anastasia fell ill, Monica and Salma would get all tensed up, fearing what the hospital checkup might 

reveal 

The doctor took a look at the test report and asked routinely. “Are you married?” 

Anastasia replied, “…I am married.” 

The doctor asked again, “Do you have children?” 

Hearing this question, Monica got nervous and quickly answered for Anastasia, “No, my friend 

The doctor looked at Anastasia and asked again, “Have you ever given birth?” 

Anastasia shook her head, “No.” 

1 have any children. 

Monica, worried that the doctor might say something inappropriate, deliberately changed the subject, “Doctor, is my friend’s checkup okay?” 

“She’s fine,” the doctor was just asking routinely. The checkup included an examination of the uterus and appendages, and the results seemed like she had given birth. 

But seeing Anastasia’s firm denial, and considering she was just here for a checkup, the doctor didn’t say anything more. 

Anastasia didn’t think much of it; some doctors would routinely ask married women if they had given birth. She hadn’t, so she just answered truthfully. 

The doctor signed on Anastasia’s checkup book and said, “You’re good to go.” 

“Thank you.”
