The Bound Between Us

Chapter 181

Getting from the city to Cloud Mountain took about an hour and a half by car.

Anastasia made the drive, and by the time she arrived at the Cloud Mountain Resort, It was already 6 in the evening. Perfect timing to catch the stunning sunset. Standing atop Cloud Mountain and looking out at the sunset, the view was so captivating, you’d never want to leave.

After taking it all in, Anastasia got down to business. Amy had already sent over the info on Christine, the designer who was a whiz at traditional craftsmanship.

Christine, a 35-year-old female, had been in the jewelry design game for eight years. Once upon a time, she was Selena’s biggest rival. Accompanying the information on Christine were some photos.

As Anastasia was pondering on how to find Christine in the vast Cloud Mountain Resort, she spotted a familiar figure strolling from the direction of the hotel elevator. The woman was dressed in white sports gear, wearing a baseball cap, and radiating a sense of elegance and allure that screamed strong, independent woman.

Anastasia quickly approached her, wearing a light smile. ‘Ms. Christine, hello, I’m Anastasia, the lead designer at AL Jewery under Elysian Technologies. I’m here specifically for you.”
