Anastasia turned around when she heard a sound, greeting Lauren in the car across from her in a friendly manner, “Drive safe, I’m heading off first”

Lauren also popped her head out of the window to wave at Anastasia, but due to the angle, she could only see the side of Herman’s face.

“Let’s hit the road too,” Anastasia said to Herman.

Herman opened the car door, carefully shielding Anastasia’s head to prevent her from bumping into anything. Once Anastasia had settled in the car, he returned to the drivers seat.

Herman asked, “What’s on your mind for dinner tonight?”

“I need to swing by the hospital first, Anastasia replied, “One of my colleagues had a baby today, she asked me to be the godmother. I gotta get some gifts for the baby and pay her a visit.”

She briefly explained her plan to visit Alessia in the hospital, then mused, “Fresh out of the oven babies are so tiny. Their little hands and feet are just so darn cute.”

Seeing Anastasias love for babies, a subtle smile appeared on Herman’s face, “When we have a kid, they’ll definitely be the cutest little thing on the planet.”
