Chapter 112
Anastasia clung to Hermanis waist, her face pressed against his chest, whispering, Iâm scaredâ
What happened this morning scared Anastasia, as did Monica and Salmaâs strange behavior
But she still didnât want to lie to him.
She continued, âAs a couple, we should be honest with each other and trust each other. Herman, I donât remember losing any memory, nor do I know if that memory affects our current life. I just want you to knowâ
He had the right to know all this.
Anastasiaâs words made Herman feel guilty.
He hadnât been entirely honest with Anastasia.
Herman hesitated for a moment, about to speak, when he heard Anastasia say, âHerman, I love our life now and Iâm really grateful for the happiness you bring me I hope we can keep living like this, simple is bestâ
What he had been about to say was forced back down
He tentatively asked, âDonât you wish that one day I could be rich? Maybe one day Iâll be very wealthy, and you can have all the pretty clothes, luxury items, big house, everything you want.â
âI donât want thoseâ Anastasia shook her head, looked at him and half jokingly half-seriously said, âThereâs always a price to pay for what you get, if you become very rich and then you donât need me, or youâre often not home, busy with social gatherings, then no amount of money can make me happyâ
The idea of a man turning bad once he had money scared Anastasia. She was worried, feeling insecure and uneasy
Herman was good-looking, if he also became very rich then he would attract many suitors.
Herman laughed at her words, âDonât worry, I wonât leave you, I promise.â
Whether Herman could love her and only her for a lifetime or not. Anastasia felt extremely happy at that moment.
These sweet words made her feel like every cell in her body was soaked in candy filled with sweetness
Anastasia laughed. âBut we better have a house, Gianna said that itâs hard for kids to go to school these days, kindergarten tuition is a hundred grand a year, if you donât have a house in a good neighborhood, you canât go to a good schoolâ
Herman looked at her tenderly. I think youâre hinting at somethingâ
âWhat am I hinting at? Anastasia didnât have any other intentions, she was just being literal
He smiled slightly. Are you trying to tell me you want to have a baby?â
Anastasiaâs face instantly turned red, âNoâ
Herman pulled the blanket over her, âOnly hard work leads to harvest.â
Anastasia couldnât help but laugh, Herman
Their relationship heated up quickly, like a rocket.
Youth hormones were really something
This time Anastasia was so tired she didnât want to move at all, she fell asleep right away.
Herman wished he could just stay home and be with Anastasia all the time, becoming a total homebody
In fact, that was exactly what he did. The next day he didnât go to the office, but sent a text to Flynn, asking him to take over, he himself took three days
off
Flynn, who had a date with a girl, received the message from his brother and grumbled loudly
The last thing Flynn liked was managing the company, he preferred drinking and flirting with beautiful women, enjoying life
When Hermanâs order came down, Flynn immediately lost all the joy of life, and his date with the girl was a bust.
Herman had been working all year round for the past few years, but since he got married, heâd taken a lot of time off.
It seemed that for a hero, a beautiful woman was hard to resist.
Flynn reluctantly went to the office, while Herman was leisurely watering the flowers and trimming the plants on the balcony at home.
Anastasia was so tired she was still sleeping in bed, Herman didnât wake her
Around noon, Anastasia got up, and the clothes Herman had ordered were all delivered.
Anastasia thought Herman had gone to work, so when she came out of the bedroom in her pajamas and slippers and saw Herman and a room full of new clothes, she was quite surprised.
âWhatâs with all these clothes? Whatâs going on?â Anastasia asked, âWhy arenât you at work?â
âI was too tired last night, so I took the day off.â Herman said casually. These clothes are for you, try them on.â
âAll these clothes are for me? Anastasia was flabbergasted, âThatâs too extravagant, how did you know my size?â
Herman smiled, âEstimated and confirmed by touchâ
Anastasia kept silent.
