Chapter 1373
"Mr. Fike..." Maria worried Austin would get upset and hurriedly try to explain her niece's behavior.
However, Austin ignored her and focused his attention on Anastasia.
Anastasia turned to look at him straight into his eyes. "Why do you care?"
Austin smiled indifferently and said, "Did she also tell you that as long as you have a reasonable diet
and adjust your nutrition structure well, you would be able to eat until you’re full while losing weight?”
Anastasia looked at him warily without saying anything, but Maria babbled loudly, "What kind of deviant
theory is that?! How can we not go hungry when we try to lose weight? How can we be full and yet slim
down? That's total b*llshit! Tasia, you mustn't believe that!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"No, to a certain degree, she's right," Austin said, to Maria’s surprise.
Maria was puzzled.
"You think that she’s right too?" Without realizing it, Anastasia became less hostile toward Austin.
"I'm saying to a certain degree, "Austin said blandly.
Many weight loss experts knew about this theory. One could gradually lose weight by creating a calorie
deficit, adjusting the nutrition structure, and removing oily and high-sodium food with a lot of fat and
calories from the meal plan. That would increase protein and healthy fats intake, replacing fast food
carbs with low carbs-for example, swapping refined food with unprocessed ones.
Yet, Anastasia might not be able to tackle her obesity through a simple adjustment of nutrition
structure.
Anastasia could not comprehend and asked curiously," What do you mean?"
"Let me take your pulse. Then I can tell you the answer, Ms. Rollins " Austin gave her an alluring gaze.
After some hesitation, Anastasia looked down at her wrist, then up at him.
Maria said impatiently, "Tasia, just let Mr. Fike try it. It won't kill you, will it?" She tried to grab her
niece's wrist as she spoke.
However, Anastasia put her hand behind her back and lifted her chin as soon as Maria touched her.
"Must I do as you say? I don't want to!"
"Hey, you..." Maria angrily stopped her foot when she missed Anastasia's hand, knowing she was no
match for Anastasia's size and strength.
On the other hand, Austin was much calmer. He revealed a half-smile, saying, "You don't want to, or

"Are you joking? Why wouldn't I dare?" Anastasia chuckled mockingly and said, "Don’t think you can
goad me into doing this!"
"You take Lily as a good friend, and you worry she would lose face if I cure you. You're worried I'm right
and she's wrong, so you would rather protect her reputation at the cost of your health."
"Tasia, don't be so silly! We're talking about your health here. What does Lily know? She’s just a
perfumer who makes perfumes. Lily knows nothing about curing diseases! Even if she's not trying to
harm you, she's not a professional. Let Mr. Fike take your pulse. It'll only do you good!" Maria tried to
look concerned.
"How about giving it a try?" Austin smiled and held out a hand.
