The Bound Between Us

Chapter 201

Anastasia took a cab to Riverdale prison. Her nerves on edge the entire way.

She wanted to know the truth but was also filled with fear, contemplating backing out. She had a hunch that the truth might affect her current life, but she didn’t want to live in confusion and illusion.

After a mental tug–of–war, Anastasia decided to step into the prison.

She applied to visit Cason but was turned down. The prison’s reason was that Cason had caused trouble in prison and could not receive visitors for a year.

A glimmer of hope in Anastasia’s heart was instantly doused, like cold water on a flame. She left the prison feeling defeated and aimlessly wandered the streets.

Then, her phone rang. It was Alessia from AL Jewery’s sales department. Alessia had called to check up on her during her hospital stay.

“Hey, Alessia” Seeing the caller ID, Anastasia answered, quickly adjusting her mood.

Alessia asked warmly over the phone, “Anastasia, how are you feeling? Are you better?”

“Yep, I’m all good. Got discharged from the hospital today” Remembering she missed Alessia’s big event, the birth of her child, Anastasia offered, ‘Alessia, if it’s not too much trouble, I’d like to come over and see your baby.”
