The Bound Between Us

Chapter 200

Anastasia was completely lost; she had no idea what Selena was rambling about. She didn’t even know who the hell the CEO of Elysian Technologies was. How on earth could she be mistaken as the CEO’s secret lover? It was utterly ridiculous.

“What you do in secret, will come out in public,” Selena sneered. “You’re a nobody, yet you’re aiming for the stars? Poor Herman, I wonder how he’d react if he knew he’d been cuckolded.”

*Selena, what the hell are you blabbering about?” Anastasia was furious. “Watch your mouth. Herman and I are very much in love. Don’t you dare try to stir the pot with your low tactics.”

“Me? Low?” Selena scoffed. “Anastasia, I really underestimated you. Your acting and your face are truly admirable, juggling two men with ease. Aren’t your sneaky affairs despicable?”

Anastasia took a deep breath and said sternly, “Selena, please leave. I’ll say it again, I have nothing to do with the CEO of Elysian Technologies. Stop accusing me baselessly.” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Selena mocked, “What a show. I’m looking forward to seeing how far you can take this.”

With that, Selena left.

Anastasia felt a knot in her stomach. Selena’s mockery was just like Demi’s in the past, who also said similar things. She was equally clueless about why she was mistaken as the CEO’s wife.

After calming down, Anastasia started to replay recent events in her mind. She felt like she was in the dark about something but couldn’t put a finger on it. It was as if there was a blurred net in front of her, obstructing the truth. She didn’t know what was going on, but she knew something was up.

She remembered something Monica said. What did Cason know? Anastasia felt a sudden urge to meet him.

“Anastasia, we can go now.” Herman returned after completing the formalities and saw Anastasia in a daze, he gently asked, “What’s wrong?”

Anastasia snapped back to reality and smiled. “Nothing, I’m just feeling a bit peckish.”

She didn’t tell the truth. She couldn’t possibly tell Herman that she was mistaken as someone else’s mistress. That would only bring trouble and strain their relationship, right?

Herman, with adoring eyes, said, “Alright, let’s grab something to eat then.”

“I don’t fancy eating out, I want to eat your homemade food.” Anastasia looped her arm through his

“Alright, I’ll cook for you when we get back.”

Herman collected his stuff, and they left the hospital together. He put everything in the trunk and then opened the car door for

Anastasia.

Getting in the car, Anastasia thought about her car that was wrecked, and felt sorry. “That car was new. It’s such a pity.”

“In a while, I’ll buy you another one.” Herman smiled. “The insurance money is enough to get a new one.”

Anastasia laughed. “Herman, I think you’re like a mind reader. You know exactly what I’m thinking.”

“You care about money, and I care about you,” Herman replied.

His words touched Anastasia deeply and she chuckled.

lucky to have met you, Herman, I think my ancestors would be proud.”

Herman laughed. “Next year, let’s visit your ancestors together. I need to

Anastasia was in high spirits. “Herman, you’re getting better at trip to the hospital.”

Anastasia sent a text.

them for giving me such a wonderful wife.”

Weet-talking. Wait a sec, I need to text Salma, or she’ll make a fruitless

Upon hearing Anastasia was discharged, Salma just replied, noted’, and asked Anastasia to rest well at home.

Anastasia found it odd and asked, “Herman, don’t you think Salma’s behavior is a bit off lately? It’s as if she’s hiding something from me.”

Herman replied, “I didn’t notice. Maybe you should have a chat with her when you get the chance.”

That was what Anastasia planned to do.

Back at Harmony Meadows, the familiar smell of home, made Anastasia relax instantly,

“There really is no place like home.” Anastasia cheerfully walked to the balcony. Her plants were still alive and well.

“You rest for a bit and I’ll cook for you.” Herman headed to the kitchen.

Soon, two plates of pasta were ready. Anastasia was really hungry and finished hers quickly.

Seeing Anastasia enjoying her meal, Herman felt satisfied and began to clear the table. Anastasia sat there, watching Herman bustling around, feeling truly blessed.

Herman finished up in the kitchen and said, “Anastasia, I need to head to the office this afternoon. You rest at home, and I’ll be back as soon as I can. I’ll have Ms. Katelyn come over to keep you company later.”

“You go on. Don’t worry about me. I’ll just go to sleep.”

“Alright.”

Herman left once he saw Anastasia head to bed.

In the bedroom, Anastasia heard the door close and immediately went to the balcony to check. Seeing that Herman really left, she changed her shoes and went out.

She had to visit Cason in prison. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to solve the mystery that was plaguing her mind.
