The Bound Between Us

Chapter 291

When Anastasia got off work and walked into her community, she didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary. She waved at the security guard at the entrance before making her way down the community path by herself.

Anastasia was just about to answer it when she noticed a shadow on the ground. Before she could react, someone covered her mouth from behind.
