The Bound Between Us

Chapter 212

The doctor’s words hit Anastasia like a ton of bricks.

She had had a child before. She thought back on the years that passed. Every time she fell ill and was hospitalized, whether it was just a cold or something more serious, Salma or Monica would always be there to keep her company.
