บททั้งหมดของ Anastasia: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

“Jack?!” Grace gasped in shock. Ana's eyes widened in shock while Jack looked at Grace wearing a strong expression. “What is the meaning of this, and what's going on here?!” Grace took more steps towards them and her eyes now narrowed towards Ana. “Don't tell me.... Of course! You are his lover! The dirty tramp who is with my husband!....”“Quiet, Grace.” Jack left Ana's hand and got up to stand in front of Grace and shielded Ana at the same time. His eyes bored into Grace and his expression was hard. “You will not make a scene tonight. Do you hear me?”Grace was fuming and she gritted when her eyes went behind Jack to now settle on Ana once again. “So it was you. I was talking to my husband's mistress the other day and I didn't even know it!”“I said enough! Don't draw up any conclusions, Grace. You're mad for always suspecting everyone!” Jack snapped but Grace wasn't about to walk away. Her heels were rooted to the floor and her eyes continued to shoot daggers directly at Ana who

“It interferes with memories, miss.” The lady replied and the shock was clearly evident on Ana's face. “A-are you sure about...what you're saying?” Ana asked and was already getting overwhelmed. The lady nodded confidently. “Of course, miss. I am a nurse so I know about such medications. These pills are hardly shipped here in the states so I can tell that the person consuming these pills is only restricting their memories.” Ana gasped and got her hands around her neck feeling a tightness surge in her throat. She stared at the lady who also couldn't stop staring back at her with suspicion evident in her eyes. Ana grabbed the pills from the lady and turned around when the lady stopped her. “Miss?...” Ana paused and for a moment didn't want to turn around but slowly did. “Are you consuming those pills? I won't butt in but I would advise that you stop taking those pills. They not only interfere with your memories but also causes the brain nerves to damage overtime...” Ana blinked and

The drive back into town was very quiet, only the engine revving could be heard. Trevor turned his neck every couple of seconds towards Ana, he couldn't help but worry about her and couldn't even imagine what she must be going through after hearing about Adam's death. He saw her face was pale, dry and not the Anastasia he knew who was always full of life. They drove into town and Trevor drove the car to his small apartment. He parked the car in front of the building and looked at Ana's direction. She was quiet all through the ride and was constantly staring at nothing in particular. Trevor didn't know what he had to do to get her to talk about it but then stepped out of the car, walked over to her side and opened the door for her. Ana didn't move from where she was seated, with her legs crossed, her hands on her lap and her eyes staring forward. It was like she wasn't able to hear nor feel anything. Her eyes were all dried up from the tears she had shed earlier. Trevor grabbed her

“Please don't look at me like that, Kayla.” Ana sighed and couldn't bear to see the disappointment in Kayla's face anymore. “Do you expect me to congratulate you instead? Come on Anastasia. You're pregnant at just 20 nearing 21 in a few months and still in your final year in the university. I would have never expected this from you at all.” Kayla spoke out her mind and then was quiet for some time before he asked the question. “Who is the father?”“I don't want to talk about it,” Ana replied. “Oh no, Missy. Don't think you will not answer the question.” Kayla shook her head. “And what am I supposed to say to your mother. I was responsible for you during your stay here.”“And I really appreciate it, Kayla. But this is my choice and my decision. It's me who's pregnant.” Ana said and the thought of carrying another life inside of her sparked hope for a new purpose in her life. Earlier she had wondered what she was to do with her life after Jack had left but now she had a reason to live

Before Fred could react and even move while on the floor, Jack came closer towards him and kicked him in the stomach. The man groaned in pain and begged Jack not to hurt him any more. Ana stood frozen at the side, both of her hands were wrapped around herself and her legs were still shaking. Her eyes were large and watching the scene unfold before her. Jack looked like a madman attacking Fred. He spared Fred no mercy and kicked him again, threw punches at him and was on the verge of causing the man to pass out. Ana who was seeing that possibility quickly got a grip of herself, pulled herself together and walked towards Jack to touch his shoulder. “Please stop, you'll kill him.” She pleaded but Jack went on deaf ears as he continued to thrash the man who was barely moving at this point. “Please just stop now! Let the cops handle it.” Ana told him and when he didn't stop, she immediately came to block his way and stood in front of him and protecting a one-eyed Fred. “Get out of the
