The Bound Between Us

Chapter 413

Gianna had extended an invitation to Anastasia’s family for the grand opening of her new coffee shop. Herman was tied up with work, so he asked Dailey to accompany Anastasia and Salma. Their daughter, Pattie, had school that day. Naturally, they wouldn’t ask her to take a day off and hold her back from her studies.

Upon arrival at the coffee shop, Anastasia learned the name that Gianna had chosen.

“Forever Cafe.” Anastasia read the words on the sign aloud, chuckling.

Anastasia’s belly was visibly larger, even beneath her loose clothing. Gianna glanced at Anastasia’s belly, with hidden longing flickering in her eyes.

“I had a fortune teller pick the name. Let’s go inside. It’s almost time for the ribbon-cutting.” Gianna laughed, asking, “Where’s your husband?”

“He’s tied up at work,” Anastasia replied, pulling out a gift. “Gianna, I wish you booming business and abundant wealth.”

“You’re being too formal,” Gianna teased, pulling Anastasia inside. “Come on, let’s go in.”

Anastasia had prepared a gift and bought eight flower baskets. Gianna had a fair number of friends, with more and more flower baskets arriving one after another.
