Chapter 0377 ANASTASIA

This time, Dennis became rigid. There was a short silence before he slowly pulled away, his hands lightly resting on my waist. His forehead was scrunched deeply as he asked, "What do you mean he took care of the bills?" He laid emphasis on 'took care. I frowned, confused. "I mean he paid her hospital bills.

"Whose?" He asked as his hands fell from my waist to his sides.

A light laugh escaped me, "Amie's, of course. Who else?"
