The Bound Between Us

Chapter 39

Herman was also taken aback. The phone was on speaker, so he heard everything Monica said crystal clear.

His timing couldn’t have been worse.

“Ana, are you listening? If you don’t know how to do it, I have some video links you can check out…”

Scared out of her wits, Anastasia hung up the phone in a hurry and even dropped her cell phone on the floor in the process.

She was totally freaked out. This was the phone she just bought. If it broke, she’d have to shell out more cash for a new one.

She quickly reached out to catch the phone, saving it from hitting the floor.

Herman stood at the door, his face expressionless. He was flabbergasted too.

Because during the phone–catching process, Anastasia had half knelt on the ground, and her towel had loosened a bit. From his angle, he could see pretty much everything….

She tightened her towel in embarrassment.

“I made you a latte.”

Despite the embarrassment, Anastasia managed a smile and explained, “Monica loves pulling pranks Don’t take her seriously.”

Herman chuckled and teased, “I’m suddenly looking forward to it. Was it the thong that Monica gave you as a wedding gift last time?”

Hermans straightforward words made Anastasia blush even deeper.

She had just taken a shower, her skin delicate and cheeks flushed. When she blushed, she looked even more charming.

Her charm was natural, and Herman found his heart racing.
