The Bound Between Us

Chapter 650

The three of them were tangled in their own secret schemes. Julie was plotting ways to get rid of Anastasia, who in turn was trying to prove she was the real Julie. Monica's role was to keep Anastasia safe.

After enjoying some cake and with a bit of persuasion from Anastasia and Monica, Julie found herself tagging along to Monica's beauty salon.

During the walk, Julie was on high alert, taking in everything around her. As they climbed the stairs, she eyed Anastasia ahead of her, tempted by the thought of a well-timed shove down the stairs. The height alone could spell disaster for Anastasia and her unborn children. Monica stayed close, helping Anastasia navigate the steps. The pregnancy made it tough for Anastasia to move around easily, and she tired quickly.

Impatience gnawed at Julie as she waited for the right moment to make her move. Anastasia's large belly, carrying twins, only fueled her dark thoughts of a knife strike.

Anastasia's outings had become rare since she got pregnant, leaving Julie with few opportunities to act. With more than six months gone, she felt the pressure of time running out.

Back on track, Julie hurried to catch up.
