Their Secret

'Three months?' The words repeated in her head for a few moments as she stared at Daniel.

Daniel, who saw how deep Anastasia was in thought, remained silent, waiting for her to decide.

"No." Anastasia's refusal broke the silence. "I don't have time to waste on this nonsense."

Daniel closed his eyes in frustration at hearing her words. He looked up, taking a deep breath, then said, "So, me... trying everything just to stay married to you is 'nonsense' and a 'waste of time'?" His voice sharpened, each word laced with a clear trace of anger.

"Mister Ethan Daniel Harrington..." She spelled out his name, her voice shaking with anger. "You... you have everything right now, but I... even time is valuable for me. So no, and yes, your suggestion is nonsense. For me!" She tapped her chest hard. "Not for you."
