Chapter 1307
"lI wouldn't mind that." Lily noticed Anastasia looked weak and appeared tired after saying just a few words. "Do you get tired
easily?"
With a pillow under her head, Anastasia nodded, her gaze lowered. "Yeah. I'm fat and lazy, so | get fatigued easily."
"Are you lazy? You're not," Lily pointed to the few bonsai pots in the corner. ‘You managed those plants, didn't you? How could you
call yourself lazy when you could care for and prune those plants so well."
Upon hearing that, Anastasia looked toward the plants. They had a lush appearance and were well-maintained. The most exciting
thing about them was that Anastasia had pruned them into the shapes of cartoon animals.

"How did you know | was the one who pruned them?" Anastasia smiled." Why didn't you think the maids did it?"
Lily shook her head. "They wouldn't have pruned the bonsai into such cute shapes if it were them. Only someone as innocent as a
child would do something as such."
"Innocent..." Anastasia repeated the word softly before she sighed. "I'm 21 this year. What innocence do | have left? Plus, no kid
would look like this."
Anastasia patted her belly, looking unhappy about it. Lily could tell Anastasia felt insecure and frustrated about her weight. After
all, she was a girl, and all girls would feel insecure about their bodies, especially when they had extra meat on them.
Lily did not want to say things like her heart mattered instead of her appearance. After all, a young lady at her age who was born
into a wealthy family would wish she was youthful and beautiful.
"Has your body been like this since you were a child, or did you suddenly gain a lot of weight?" Lily asked directly.
That made Anastasia tilt her head to look at Lily. Her gaze had a hint of sadness in them. "I guess...it's since | was young. But |
wasn't this fat back then, perhaps just slightly chubbier than other kids."
After a pause, she continued, "My mom passed away long ago, and dad was always busy with work. No one cared about what | ate.
The maids would just prepare the food | told them to make-all the things | loved to eat but were unhealthy for me. Then..."
Her voice softened. "I just kept eating, and one day, | realized | couldn't stop anymore, then this happened."
Lily nodded, showing her understanding of the matter. A child who lacked love and companionship since they were young would
choose other ways to cope. That was how they could feel less lonely in this world.

As Anastasia had a unique identity, Cameron had to protect her in various ways to ensure her safety since she was young. It was
difficult for her to make any true friends, and it was not like she could talk that much to her maids and nanny at home.
Hence, she was always by herself. It had always been only her and her feelings.
"Have you visited a psychiatrist before?"
This question stunned Anastasia. She blinked, thinking that Lily had made a mistake. "Shouldn't | visit the...endocrinologist?"
‘My dad and uncle broughtto many hospital departments before this and even madetry acupuncture. Dad wantedto
get gastric bypass surgery but feared it would hurt my body. However, if this goes on, getting that surgery is probably the only
choice left for me.” "What did the endocrinologist say?" Lily asked another question seriously, but it did not repel Anastasia.
The two chatted casually about her weight, her obesity, and also her illness.
