Chapter 434

Herman chuckled. There was a smile dancing at the corners of his lips. “Why don’t you entertain your

cousin while I retreat to the study with some work?”

“Go on, off you go.” Anastasia gently touched her flushed cheeks.

As soon as Herman left the room, Anastasia promptly rose from bed to freshen up. She slipped into a

loose outfit before heading downstairs to meet Gianna.

Pattie had already taken off for school and Salma had plans with some former colleagues from the

hotel.

In the living room, Gianna was comfortably seated while the housekeeper, Katie, poured her a cup of

coffee. Upon seeing Anastasia, Katie offered, “Would you like some lemonade, milady?”

At five months pregnant, Anastasia still endured bouts of morning sickness and often found relief in

sipping lemonade.

Anastasia responded with a smile, “That sounds wonderful. Thanks, Katie. Could you also prepare

some breakfast for me? I’m quite peckish. A bowl of oatmeal would be perfect.”

“Certainly, I’ll get right on it,” Katie replied. Then she tactfully retreated to the kitchen, leaving Anastasia

to host Gianna.

Placing a bag of coffee beans on the table, Gianna said, “This is a new blend from my shop. I thought

you might like to try it. It’s safe for expectant mothers.”

“Thank you,” Anastasia replied. Her smile was gentle. “How’s business at your shop, Gianna?”

“It’s going well. It’s profitable. I’ve done the math and it should break even within a year.” Gianna

boasted, “I might even open a second shop at that point.”

“Really? That’s impressive, Gianna. You’re quite the entrepreneur.”

Gianna glanced upstairs. “Is your husband not going into the office today?”

“He’s working from home today to keep me company,” Anastasia admitted, a little sheepishly.

“Anastasia, you’re so lucky. Herman earns money by the minute. Just think of how much he’s giving up

to spend the day with you,” Gianna said. Her eyes were brimming with envy.

“Oh, it’s not as dramatic as all that,” Anastasia demurred. “Besides, he’s not a machine. He needs to

rest too. We have Flynn holding down the fort at the office.”

“By the way, what’s the status of the Salstrom family’s illegitimate child? Are they planning on

acknowledging him? Could it impact Herman?”

Sure” Gianna replied. Her eyes wandered around the house as soon as Anastasia left the room. The

mansion was extravagant, from the decoration to the sheer size, not to mention its prime location in

Riverdale.

The property was worth billions and Salma had mentioned that it was registered in Anastasia’s name.

The realization made Gianna envious. Her previous comfortable life caled in comparison to the

opulence of Anastasia’s. Every piece of furniture, every cup in the mansion was worth a small fortune.

As Gianna’s hand traced over the $1 million pine table, her gaze wandered upstairs. Upstairs was the

man she adored.

The image of Herman and Anastasia sharing a passionate kiss earlier still lingered in Ganna’s mind. It

pricked at her heart like a thorn.

Unconsciously, Gianna found herself moving towards the staircase. She didn’t know the exact location

of the study, but she carefully treaded along the carpeted hallway,

eventually finding herself outside the study.

The door was ajar, and through the gap, Gianna could see Herman’s silhouette against the large

window, deep in a phone conversation. Her heart fluttered at the sight…
