The Bound Between Us

Chapter 195

During the time Anastasia was unconscious, Gianna and Joey’s divorce case had already kicked off. At the first trial, Joey deliberately didn’t show up.

With Joey playing hide and seek, the divorce case wasn’t going to be a cakewalk. Cynthia was extremely worried about Gianna’s marriage.

“Is Joey willing to negotiate?” Anastasia asked.

“Forget about it, that jerk’s idea of negotiation is Gianna leaving with only the clothes on her back and giving him two out of our three houses after the divorce. Is he dreaming or what?” Cynthia ranted, getting angrier by the minute. “I used to think Joey was a decent guy, but turns out he’s selfish, hypocritical and greedy. All his past goodness was just a ruse to get his hands on my house.”

Joey’s demands were downright unacceptable. What a scumbag. Anyone would be pissed off.

Gianna quickly took a call and when she heard Cynthia bringing up Joey again, she said, “Mom, why are you dredging up these headaches? Let Anastasia recover in peace. It’s getting late, let’s head home.”

With that, she turned to Anastasia and said, “Rest up, we’re heading home. We’ll visit again some other time.”
