The Bound Between Us

Chapter 106

It seemed like Cason was already in on the whole shebang.

Panic seized Monica. If Cason really had the full scoop, he wouldn’t let Anastasia off the hook.

Anastasia had just recently started to get her life back on track, and this could throw a wrench in the works.

Cason’s revelation left Demi flabbergasted it was news to her about Anastasia having a kid and juggling two men at the same time..

Seeing Cason’s fury, Monica didn’t dare to add fuel to the fire. She had to figure out a way to cool his jets and buy Anastasia some time

Anastasia had just gotten together with Herman. If Herman got wind of Anastasia’s secret, it’d be a hot mess.

“Demi, can you please step outside for a bit? I would like to talk to Cason alone,” Monica asked, requesting Demi to leave.

Demi curiously asked, “What could there be that I can’t hear? I’m curious too. Wasn’t Anastasia always saying she liked Cason before? Why?”

“Please leave.” Monica shooed Demi out, locked the ward room door, and took a seat by the bed.

In reality, Monica didn’t have any ace up her sleeve either, she could only play for time.

Monica calmly said, ‘Cason, you’ve got Anastasia all wrong. Remember how you wanted to know why Anastasia dropped out of school? Here it is: after you left, Salma had a car accident, Anastasia needed money and got a part-time job, but she got thrown under the bus”
