The Bound Between Us

Chapter 143

Anastasia took Pattie back to the bedroom she once slept in, planning to transform it into a kid’s room for Pattie. Although Pattie had been hurt, she remained silent, lying quietly in Anastasia’s arms without falling asleep.

Anastasia gently stroked Pattie’s head, softly comforting her “Pattie, it’s all good now, you can have a peaceful sleep. Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the playground for some slide fun. Would you like that?”

Anastasia figured all kids would love this. However, Pattie opened her eyes wide and asked with a sob, “Why does mommy not like me, but likes my brother? I’ve been a good girl”

Pattie nodded and held on to Anastasia “You smell nice. I like you”

Anastasia smiled gently. You smell nice 100, Pattie. I like you too. Would you like me to tell you a story?”
