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?"

"Anastasia, I am your husband. I have been taking care of you and Amie since we got married. I have been taking care of the bills? Why would you ask him for help? Did I complain to you?"

"Right!" He hissed, walked away from me. He turned his back to me, ran his hands through his hair and gripped the strands tightly at his nape.

At first I was surprised but I quickly caught myself. "Amie's. I want to know what we have le-"
