The Bound Between Us

Chapter 143

Anastasia took Pattie back to the bedroom she once slept in, planning to transform it into a kid’s room for Pattie. Although Pattie had been hurt, she remained silent, lying quietly in Anastasia’s arms without falling asleep.

Anastasia gently stroked Pattie’s head, softly comforting her “Pattie, it’s all good now, you can have a peaceful sleep. Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the playground for some slide fun. Would you like that?”

Anastasia figured all kids would love this. However, Pattie opened her eyes wide and asked with a sob, “Why does mommy not like me, but likes my brother? I’ve been a good girl”

Hearing this, Anastasia felt a lump in her throat. She gently kissed Pattie’s forehead. “Pattie you’re a good girl, the best and cutest little friend I’ve ever met. Don’t worry about these things, just go to sleep.”

Pattie nodded and held on to Anastasia “You smell nice. I like you”

Anastasia smiled gently. You smell nice 100, Pattie. I like you too. Would you like me to tell you a story?”

Pattie had never heard a bedtime story before, and she nodded confusedly.

Anastasia began her story. “Once upon a time, there was a big mountain and a cute little rabbit lived in it…”

Under Anastasia’s hypnotic voice, Pattie fell asleep quickly. Looking at the sleeping Pattie, Anastasia felt a sense of warmth in her heart, as if this girl had filled a void in her heart.

“Good night, Pattie Anastasia kissed Pattie’s forehead, turned off the light, and carefully left the room

After Herman had taken a shower, he sat in the living room in his pajamas. Anastasia asked him, “What are you planning to do with Pattie?”

They were not Pattie’s legal guardians, it was fine for Pattie to stay here temporarily, but she needed to go to school, and there were a lot of issues to

deal with.

Herman was also considering these issues. He patted the spot next to him, indicating for Anastasia to come and sit

Anastasia went over and lay on his legs; she was tired.

Holding Anastasia’s hand, Herman said, “We first need to figure out whether this girl is adopted or was birthed by Penny. I don’t think Penny plans to raise her. If we send her back, she might continue to be abused. Plus, she’s nearly five years old and hasn’t attended kindergarten, all of these are problems.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

Anastasia asked in surprise, ‘Is she really not her biological child?”

“I heard some neighbors saying that Pattie was adopted, but I’m not sure about the details. We need to investigate”

Anastasia said, “Anyway we can’t send Pattie back. She’s too miserable. Herman, I like this child. I don’t know why, but she feels familiar to me.”

Herman had the same feeling. He understood what Anastasia meant and said. If they really don’t plan to raise Pattie, we’ll adopt her”

Hearing this, Anastasia kissed Herman’s cheek with a smile. “You’re wonderful, honey”

She agreed, but adopting Pattle was an important decision that needed to be discussed together. It could only be carried out when both were in

agreement.

Herman gave a slight smile and said, “How can one kiss satisfy me?”

He turned his other cheek to Anastasia. She laughed and kissed him. But just as her lips were about to touch his cheek, he suddenly turned his head and kissed her lips.

It took a moment for Anastasia to react. Herman had played her. He took the opportunity to deepen the kiss, his hands wandering on her body

Now, given any opportunity, Herman would definitely have sex with Anastasia. And she couldn’t resist his passion, falling for it time and time again.
