Chapter 1372
Anastasia returned home joyfully and noticed that Maria was there again.She grew impatient seeing
the miracle doctor with her aunt waiting for her.
‘Didn’t I tell her I don’t want to see him? Why can’t she leave me alone? If she continues like this, I
wouldn’t want her to enter the house anymore"
Although upset, Anastasia still greeted her aunt, "Hi, Aunt Maria."
"Tasia, you’re finally home.You’re alwaysing home sote day after day, and yet your father has
never gotten worried.What is he thinking?"
Maria knew their rtionship had been strained for thest two days and conveyed her concerns
instead of getting to her point.
"I''m a grownup, and I wasn’t going to shady ces, so why worry? You seem quite free toe here
so often,"
Anastasia spoke bluntly and lifted her eyelids as she looked over to Austin, who remained quiet on the
sidelines.
"Also, you’re always apanied by a man of dubious background.Aren’t you afraid my uncle would
get jealous?"
She said half-jokingly on purpose.
Taken aback, Maria waved in embarrassment.
"What are you saying? This is the miracle doctor, Mr.Fike, and you’ve met him! Besides, your uncle
knows about me arranging for him to treat you.You enjoy joking around with me, huh?"
Maria took a step back and seized the chance to add, "Mr.Fike is so busy, yet he’s kind enough to
feel better when he cures you, but your father will also be happier, don’t you agree?"

She nced at Austin while speaking, worried that Anastasia’s attitude would offend Austin.
Maria thought he would still be upset, and it would be hard to invite Austin over, but he came to look for
her instead and asked if she was free to visit the Rollins together.
The miracle doctor offering to visit Anastasia was like a dreame true for Maria.
She immediately got into the car and brought him to the Rollins family’s house.
After learning that Anastasia had gone to Lily’s house again, Maria dared not call her niece and urged
her toe home because Maria feared the young woman would purposely returnte.
Maria then waited at the house and told the housekeeper not to tell Anastasia about it.
At first, she worried that Austin would grow impatient, but he was unusually patient and sat there
drinking tea while ying on his phone without getting restless.
AS Maria secretly let out a sigh of relief, she could not help but feel puzzled.
‘What''s the deal with him?’ Maria noticed her niece was not responding, so she walked over to hold her
arm.
"Tasia..."
To her surprise, Anastasia turned away to dodge her hand and said impatiently, "I don’t want to see
him! I’m not sick."
"Tasia!"
Maria said seriously in a graver tone.
"It’s not good to avoid seeing doctors! You’re no longer a child, and your father has been worried sick
about you for so many years.
Do you bear to see him getting worried all the time? "Even if it’s only for the sake of your health, you
shouldn’t be so willful too! Be a good girl.Mr.Fike is very experienced.Let him check your pulse and see
what he says."
"Aunt Maria, I’m fat, not sick, and I don’t need a miracle doctor.I appreciate that you''re trying to help but
no thanks.As for him..."
Anastasia turned to look Austin up and down.
"I didn’t hire you.I don’t care what kind of miracle doctor you are, and I hope you understand that you
shouldn’te here uninvited."
"asia!"
Maria was appalled and thought what her niece said was too much.
Anastasia did not just try to get rid of him but also failed to show him respect.
Austin would have left in a fit if it were the past.
He would not allow himself to be humiliated by a young girl who looked down on him and even used
him of being a con man.Still, he single- mindedly wanted topete with Lily and tolerated such
humiliation despite himself.
He chuckled coldly.
"Lily was the one who told you that you’ re just fat and not sick, did she, Ms.Rollins?"
