Chapter 274

Evidence showed that Herman was the rule breaker. How on earth did he sleep half the night in bed and the other half on the couch?

Men were not trustworthy.

Anastasia was totally exhausted and fell asleep. By the time she woke up, it was already the next day.

Herman was on the phone out on the balcony. The call was from Flynn, who knew that Anastasia was going on a business trip with Herman to Crescent Bay. Flynn was green with envy. It was not just a business trip; there was a beautiful woman involved. This was practically a paid vacation.

In response to Flynn’s rambling, Herman retorted, “If you’re not satisfied, you could also find a woman and get married. Stop loafing around. The Salstrom dynasty needs you to carry it on.”

Flynn lamented on the phone, “I finally understand my role in this family.” His role was to produce heirs.

Herman said, “I even hope you can have a few more kids. That way, your sister-in-law and I can take one off your hands.”

“That’s not fair. I haven’t even found a girlfriend and you’re already planning my offspring.” Flynn took this opportunity to make a request, “But, if I could have the new Porsche sports car, I believe I would definitely be motivated to add to the Salstrom lineage. I heard that you’ve reserved that car.”

“Well, you can forget about that. That car is for your sister-in-law.” Herman said.

Flynn said, “I’m your blood brother, man.” Flynn started to play the family card on the phone.

Herman noticed that Anastasia had woken up. Looking at her through the glass sliding door from the balcony, he told Flynn, “You can think about getting married and having kids early. I might consider buying you another car. Oh, and don’t forget what I told you to do. Your sister-in-law is awake. I gotta go.”

“Got it.” When the sister-in-law was around, everyone else needed to step aside.

Herman hung up. Anastasia, wearing Herman’s shirt, emerged from the room. The white shirt barely covered her backside, and her slender long legs were especially enticing as she moved. He quirked an eyebrow, “Babe, is this your way of seducing me early in the morning?”

Anastasia blushed and rolled her eyes at him, “What are you thinking about all day?”.

“Only about you.” He pulled her into his arms, pressing her against the glass door. He gave her a passionate French kiss before letting her go, “We’re going back to Riverdale this afternoon.”

“Okay.” Anastasia also wanted to go home. Despite the bliss of being alone with him, she was worried about Salma and Pattie at home. Leaning lazily against the door frame, she casually tousled her hair, looking alluring.

“Are you done dealing with all those women?” Anastasia asked.

This issue was yet to be resolved. Anastasia had told Herman about it, expecting him to handle it and show his attitude.

“It’s handled.” Herman didn’t dare to hide anything and said, “It was Julie who bribed the women arranged by the client and spread rumors to you. Babe, someone wants to ruin our relationship, but luckily you’re clever and generous. You didn’t fall for it.”

“Cut the sweet talk.” Anastasia had already suspected it was Julie, so she wasn’t too surprised. “What’s really going on between you and Julie? I don’t believe that you two were just set up for a blind date. If the date failed, why is she still clinging onto you?” Anastasia asked.

“There’s really nothing between us.” Herman raised his hand and swore, “Honey, you’ve got to trust me. I, Herman, am absolutely honest.”

Herman himself felt a bit guilty as he was still keeping something from Anastasia.

Anastasia scrutinized Herman, unable to tell if he was lying. Then she said, “If there’s a next time, be ready to sleep on the couch for a month. And when you’re out, you need to protect yourself. Whether it’s your doing or not, if another woman ends up in your bed, I will never forgive you.”
