The Bound Between Us

Chapter 171

Joey couldn’t bear to part with those three houses either. Who could blame him? Those three houses in Riverdale were worth millions of

bucks

Joey was nervously sitting on the edge of his hospital bed, with his hands ruffling his hair in frustration.

Carmen suggested, “I’ll apologize to Gianna for you. I’ll say I forced you to cheat and have a kid with another woman. It’s all my fault. All you need to do is make things up with Glanna. Leave everything else to me. Once we get Gianna back, you guys can try IVF. Once you have a kid, your family won’t fall apart.”

Carmen’s plan was pretty sharp. As long as they could talk Gianna back, why would they worry about losing those three houses?

Joey’s reputation was already tarnished and he was infertile. Finding a wife in the future wouldn’t be a walk in the park. Getting Gianna’s forgiveness would be the best outcome.

It was late when Anastasia left Gianna’s place. Gianna had arranged for a designated driver to drop her home.

Gianna was now full of distrust towards men. Anastasia could understand her feelings.
