The Bound Between Us

Chapter 130

Anastasia let out a soft breath, took a look around her home, and said, “He doesn’t have a mistress, but he does have a house”

At that, Monica laughed. “I thought it was some big issue. Just a house? That’s a good thing”

Considering Herman’s wealth, a house, or even several buildings, wouldn’t be surprising.

Anastasia shook her head, “The roof of the house was leaking this morning. It was when the downstairs neighbor came knocking, and I went to the property management that I found out the house was registered under Herman’s name. He initially told me he didn’t have a house. What’s the deal now? This is a house worth tens of millions. Is he hiding his property from me, fearing I’d covet his house?”

Anastasia was quite pissed off talking about it.

Monica thought it was some big issue, not expecting Anastasia getting upset over a house. If she know Herman was a billionaire, wouldn’t she just divorce him right away?

“Ana, don’t be too extreme about this, Monica advised “Think about it. The house is Herman’s. You guys met through matchmaking. It’s normal for him to be cautious at first. There probably weren’t any other ill intentions.

“Even so, he can’t just lie to people I called him just now, asking about the rent, and he’s still lying to me.” Anastasia was fuming. “Monica, it’s a matter of trust between a husband and wife if he doesnt trust me, that means he doesn’t consider me family”

“Oh, come on, Ana, don’t be so sensitive…

Anastasia cut her off “Monica, why are you always defending Herman? You just found out the house worth over ten million is his, aren’t you the least bit surprised?”

Monica, trying not to give herself away, answered with a laugh. “You guys are already married, legally husband and wife. Do you want me to advise you to divorce him? Over a house? That’s a bit much. Youre just angry he deceived you, but there’s good deception and bad deception. Now that you have a house, things are much easier, aren’t they?”

Monica was a bit nervous, worried Anastasia would see through her. As Anastasia was staring at her. Monica, with shifty eyes, said, “I think it’s a good thing. I only want to ask you, how is Herman to you? Do you like him? Monica changed the topic.

Anastasia knew very well that she liked Herman, otherwise, she wouldn’t be this angry. Seeing Anastasia not responding, Monica added, “Your anger is because you care about him. A house got you this upset. If your husband turns out to be a hidden billionaire, would you just dump him, and give him up?” Monica was also testing Anastasia’s attitude. Anastasia responded, “Monica, you’re muddling the waters. I’m talking about trust here.”

“Bottom line, you guys met through matchmaking, and you didn’t even know each other. What trust are you talking about?” Monica responded, “At the beginning, did you trust him?”

That left Anastasia speechless. Yes, she didn’t trust him at first, considering Herman only as a tool to deal with her mother’s pressure.

Monica continued, “From another perspective, this is quite normal Just because Herman didnt tell you before doesnt mean he won’t tell you in the future. Maybe he just hasn’t figured out how to confess to you. Just wait and see.”

Anastasia asked skeptically. “Monica, why are you constantly defending Herman today? Did he bribe you?”

Monica replied with a sigh. He made my friend happy. Thats the biggest reward,”

Anastasia was touched by her words and started laughing “Monica, it’s great to have you as a friend”

Monica went on, Regardless of this issue, are you not quite satisfied with him? Is he not the perfect husband? He earns money, hands over his salary to you, and takes care of people. So don’t be unreasonable. A husband like this is hard to find,”

After hearing Monica’s advice, Anastasia felt a lot better “After finding out about this, I thought a lot. Actually, I can accept this. It’s a good thing he has a house. But him hiding it makes me feel like he doesn’t fully consider me his wife.”

Monica bluntly said, “What you’re really mail about is that he doesn’t love you as much as you thought.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Anastasia nodded. “Right, if he had told me about it, it would’ve been a surprise. But discovering it myself feels like a deception. It’s all about perspective:

“So shall we wait and see?” Monica said with a grin. ‘Maybe he’ll give you an even bigger surprise.”

Anastasia laughed. “As long as it’s not a shock.”

As they were chatting, a sudden scream came from the bedroom. Anastasia immediately rushed back to check.
