The Bond Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 703

Sandy perched herself on the couch opposite Tavon, her demeanor as composed as ever, with a playful glint in her eyes.

“Dad, back when I was stuck in the hospital, you always brought me the nicest gifts. You called me your little princess. So, why are you so upset with my brother and me now?”

She flashed a smile, but it didn’t quite reach her eyes. “Dad, why not just kick back and enjoy life? My brother and I are all grown up; it’s your turn to relax.”

Though her lips curled into a smile, there was a noticeable chill beneath it. Sandy felt no familial bond with Tavon. To her, he was just a means to an end. She was willing to sacrifice anything to achieve her goals.

Tavon let out a sarcastic laugh, shaking his head. “Sandy, you’re still young. Just because you've had a bit of success, don’t think you’re the best thing since sliced bread. There’s still a lot to learn.”

Her face darkened for a moment, but she quickly masked it with a bright smile. “You’re right, Dad. I’ll definitely learn from those with more experience.”

Tavon felt a twinge of frustration. The daughter who used to be so obedient and straightforward was now impossible to read. Behind that facade, who knew what she was plotting?

With a sigh, Tavon stood up. “I’m heading over to Southridge Estates to see your sister. Do whatever you want.”

Sandy rose as well. “Alright, Dad. Please let her know not to worry about those things online. It wasn’t me.”

Ignoring her, Tavon left the room, and Sandy dropped her smile, revealing a chillingly calculating expression.

Just then, her phone buzzed. Seeing Katelyn’s name flash on the screen, Sandy’s lips curled into a satisfied smirk. She answered, instantly transforming back into the picture of innocence. “Hey, Aunt Katelyn, what’s up?”
