The Bound Between Us

Chapter 55

Anastasia’s obvious worry for Herman gave him a warmth feeling

He held her hand, saying, “Dont worry, it’s all good. If it really comes to a lawsuit, I know some lawyer. Today’s our first movie date, let’s not let some random dude spoil the mood”

What’s done is done, worrying about it won’t change anything

It’s Herman’s first time inviting her to a movie, no way he’s letting anything spoil the mood.

Anastasia nodded, and they went into the cinema. She thought to herself, once the movie’s over, if Cason really sues Herman, she’ll have a talk with

Cason

She was the one who started it all, she can’t let Herman catch the flak

If an employee from a big shot company like Elysian Technologies gets tangled up in a lawsuit, if it’s serious, it’ll definitely put a dent in Herman’s career.

Herman led Anastasia to their seats. Anastasia realized that their relationship had deepened without her noticing, holding hands had become second

nature.

Herman picked a romance film, the majority of the audience were couples.

The cinema was dimly lit, any minor movements between couples wouldn’t easily be noticed.

Things like holding hands, kissing, all pretty standard stuff.

In this atmosphere, Anastasia started to feel the dating vibe, her heart was all sweet and hopeful for the future.

Just like any other boyfriend, Herman was holding the popcorn for Anastasia, and also holding her hand.

He liked holding Anastasia’s hand, soft and tender.

The movie started, the scenes were pretty straightforward. A couple was making out in a room, this shot lasted for a good ten seconds, making Anastasia blush.

She sneaked a glance at Herman, he was watching intently, no reaction on his face, just gripping her hand a bit tighter.

Anastasia quickly averted her gaze. The scene switched, she wasn’t sure if the cinema was too warm or what, but her palms were sweaty. She was too shy to let go of Herman’s hand, so they kept holding hands.

As a romance movie, there were quite a few intimate scenes. After the movie, Anastasia’s face was burning, her heart was racing.

Anastasia could only munch on popcorn and sip on her drink to cool down Watching this movie was kind of torturous.

For Herman, it was also a torture

He didnt expect the movie to be so suggestive. He shouldn’t have brought Anastasia to the cinema, they should’ve watched at home.

While they were watching the movie, Cason had already gone to the hospital for a checkup and called the cops.

He was pissed as hell

Just as Herman and Anastasia finished the movie and stepped out, two cops found Herman

“Sir, you’re accused of assault, you need to come with us.

Seeing the cops, Anastasia was in a panic. She didn’t expect Cason to be such a low-life Clearly, Cason started it, but he called the cops “Sir, this is a misunderstanding Anastasia quickly said, “He started it, my husband was just defending me”

The police officer stated, “Assaulting someone is a wrongful act. The victim has undergone a medical examination, which classifies their injuries as second degree harm, Additionally, there is surveillance footage as evidence. Anyone should be accountable for the consequences of their actions” “Sir…”

Before Anastasia could plead again, Herman said, ‘Anastasia, go home first, it’s okay, I’ll go with them, I’ll be back soon.”

Anastasia was very worried, but she could only watch as Herman got into the cop car. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

After the cop car left, Anastasia immediately called Monica. The only person she could think of for help was Monica

When Monica heard that Herman was taken away by the cops, she thought it was a joke. “Ana, there’s no way Herman was taken away by the cops, this can’t be true*

It’s true, Cason, that low-life, sued Herman Herman only knocked out his teeth, but the hospital classified it as serious injury Will Herman be sentenced, Monica, do you know any lawyers?”

She needed a top-notch lawyer to defend Herman.

After hearing the whole story. Monica was also pissed at Cason’s actions.

“Ana, go home now, dont do anything, Herman will be back soon.”

Cason is just one person. He can’t threaten the Salstrom family.

They don’t be worried about Herman now. Cason was the one who should worry about himself.

Out of all people to mess with. Cason chose Herman.
