The Bond Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 679

Monica really didn't want to bring it up. After all, Anastasia needed her rest. But seeing Pattie's cautious demeanor, she couldn't resist venting a little.

Anastasia had only just woken up and wasn't clued in on many things. She hadn't noticed anything off.

Anastasia chuckled, "It's not as dramatic as you think. I can't leave the hospital yet, and Herman's mom taking the kids back to Salstrom Manor makes sense. Once I'm out, we'll bring them home."

Monica decided not to mention the whole disinfection setup Katelyn had arranged.

"Take care, Ana. I'll head back now and come see you another day."

As Monica left, Anastasia wanted to ask if Monica had moved past the Jason situation, but the words just didn't come out.

After Monica left, Herman hurried back to the hospital after seeing Salma and the others off.

Feeling tired, Anastasia dozed off for a bit, waking up in the dead of night.

Anastasia was on a four-meal-a-day plan, specially prepared postnatal dishes that didn't add weight but packed in the nutrition.

Without much of an appetite, Anastasia ate sparingly—but with four meals a day, she was never truly hungry.

"How can you stay with me all day? What about the company?" Anastasia asked.

"If I stepped away for a bit, the company would collapse, and all those efforts would go to waste," Herman joked. "You're the priority now. The company's in good hands with the management."

Anastasia smiled, "What's the cost per day at this postnatal center?"

"Eighty grand a day."

Anastasia winced at the price, "That's outrageous. Ordinary folks don't need to spend that much for postnatal care. Eighty grand could be a lifetime's earnings for some."
