The Bound Between Us

Chapter 236

Herman had a sixth sense about women, always knowing just what to say and do.

After taking a shower, Anastasia changed into the peach-colored dress. She put on some lipstick to give her face a pop of color, looking fresh and vibrant.

By the time Anastasia was getting ready, the food had already arrived from the restaurant.

Monica was the first one to arrive, bearing gifts. She came in smiling, “Ana, Salma, wishing you peace, health, and a worry-free life. I brought some oranges. Hope you guys like them.”

Herman was loaded, so he didn’t need a thing. Buying oranges was practical, as they can enjoy them after dinner.

Anastasia took it with a smile, “Thank you, Monica. When did you become so polite? You used to come empty-handed.”

Salma agreed, “Yeah, you don’t have to bring anything next time. Just come over.”

Monica glanced at Herman, jokingly said, “Your husband personally invited me this time. How could I show up empty-handed? Next time, I won’t bring anything. These oranges are super sweet. Try one.”

Monica handed out some oranges to everyone and picked two best ones for Pattie, “Sweetie, here are some oranges for you. Smile for me.”

Pattie gave a sweet smile.
