The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 349

Chapter 349 

A good man was one who could both sweet-talk his wife and physically take care of her. And on this point, Herman was absolutely spot-on. 

A woman’s mood came and went quickly. After a bit of lovemaking, weren’t all worries and frustrations dispelled? 

Afterwards. Herman received a message from Flynn urging him to return to Salstrom Manor. Something had gone wrong. He had dozens of missed calls on his phone, all from his family. His phone had been on silent, so he hadn’t heard them. 

Herman read the message, calmly turned off the screen, and told Anastasia, “Honey, you rest for a bit. I need to head back to Salstrom Manor. I’ve pacified the young, now I need to appease the old.” 

Anastasia felt relieved and said, “Please talk nicely with Granny and don’t annoy her further. As for your parents, I’ll go apologize to them tomorrow.” 

“Leave this matter to me, you don’t need to worry.” Herman said as he got up and started dressing, “Granny and the rest are still angry. It’s not appropriate for you to step in now. Once I’ve settled everything, we’ll all sit down for a meal.” 

“Alright, you better go.” Anastasia said, “I’ll head back to Harmony Meadows too. Our sudden departure will worry my mother.” 

“I’ll have Dailey take you home.” Herman said. 

Herman called Dailey, and half an hour later, he arrived at the villa’s entrance to take Anastasia back to Harmony Meadows. Meanwhile, Herman headed back to Salstrom Manor. At Salstrom Manor, Granny Anita was still fuming. After returning to the Manor, an anonymous tip had revealed that Anastasia was pregnant before getting married. And the one to expose Anastasia was none other than Julie. 

Seeing the Salstroms leave one after the other during the dinner party, Julie knew that the news of Anastasia’s infertility had sparked a fire among the Salstroms. She decided to fan the flames by revealing Anastasia’s premarital pregnancy, further fueling Granny Anita’s rage. 

Feiman and Katelyn had both seen the document. The couple was left speechless. The daughter-in-law they had carefully chosen was not as they had thought. Even if Katelyn wanted to put in a good word, she couldn’t find the words to say. 

Everyone had tried to contact Herman, but he neither answered nor replied, making him unreachable. 

Granny Anita was so angry that her blood pressure nearly skyrocketed. Flynn had to send Herman a message urging him to come back quickly before something serious happened. 

Herman returned to Salstrom Manor at eleven o’clock in the evening. The Manor was brightly lit, and no one had gone to bed. They were all waiting for Herman. 

Granny Anita had made a proclamation – Herman must be found tonight. 

Upon entering the main hall, Herman immediately sensed the tense atmosphere. 

Feiman was furious and slammed his hand on the table, “Herman, you’ve really done it this time. Did Anastasia have a child before marrying you? You hid such a big thing from us. Do you even respect us at all?”
