The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 30

When Herman saw Flynn, it was like spotting a treasure trove.

Without any hesitation, Herman jumped right into his sales pitch. "These are handmade jewelry pieces by your sister-in-law. Fancy buying a few for your girlfriend?"

Though the tone was more of a question, those who knew Herman understood it was more of a command. Flynn had no choice but to buy.

It was made by Anastasia, and of course, Flynn would support her. He said, "Absolutely, these pieces are stunning. Angie, pick out a few."

At the mention of the word "girlfriend," Angie felt a wave of joy wash over her. She happily picked out a few pieces. "They're all so beautiful, I love them all."

Seizing the opportunity, Herman said, "If you like them, buy them all. They're unique, like these cherry earrings, symbolizing good things come in pairs, perfect for you lovebirds. And this sunflower hair clip symbolizes passionate love..."

Even Anastasia had to give him props for his sales tactics. These were all made-up meanings by Herman on the spot.

The more Angie listened, the more she wanted to buy them all. "Flynn, can we buy them all?"

Angie wasn't part of Flynn's circle and didn't know Herman. She had no idea how rich Flynn was or the real relationship between Herman and Flynn.

With a wave of his hand, Flynn generously said, "We’ll have all of them."

Anastasia knew Flynn was a distant relative of Herman's. How could she take his money? She said with a smile. "I'll wrap them up for you as a gift."

In her heart, Anastasia felt a little bad. These pieces of jewelry took her two days to make. But she didn't show it. She would simply work harder these few days and make more pieces.

Herman said, "You worked overnight to make these. We can't just give them for free. Even though we're distant relatives, we shouldn't be so polite. We need to save for a house. Every penny counts."

Flynn was speechless. Did his own brother forget about him now that he had a wife? Herman owned several villas and recently bought a three-bedroom house in Harmony Meadows. And he still needed to buy a house?

Flynn suddenly really wanted to see the day when Herman's true identity was revealed.

Flynn said with a smile, "Anastasia, your husband is right. I should pay. I can't just take them. How much is it in total?"

Anastasia waved her hand and said, "No need, it's not worth much..."

Even though they needed to save for a house, they couldn't take money from relatives.

Herman picked up Anastasia's card reader and handed it to Flynn. "Swipe your card, it's four thousand in total."

Anastasia was shocked by the price. Wasn't this extortion?

The price had been increased tenfold. If they were reported, they would be detained.

"Flynn, we're closing shop. You can take your girlfriend to visit other places." This was his way of telling them to leave.

Flynn wanted to build a relationship with Anastasia. His brother Herman had personally set up a stall. This showed how serious he was about her. If he could get Anastasia to like him and protect him, he wouldn't have to be afraid of his brother in the future.

Flynn took out his phone and said with a grin, "Anastasia, let's add each other’s WhatsApp."

Anastasia felt guilty for tricking Flynn and couldn't refuse his request. At this point, Flynn seemed like a fool who was happily scammed.

But Flynn felt like he hit the jackpot. All it took was four hundred bucks to be friends with Anastasia on WhatsApp.
