The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 355

Upon hearing this voice, Anastasia instinctively frowned. It was none other than Julie.

Anastasia thought, “Seems like she follows me everywhere.”

Upon seeing Julie, Grandma Anita’s face immediately lit up. “Julie, why are you so late? Come over here and sit next to me.”

The fondness for Julie in Grandma Anita’s eyes was evident to anyone.

Flynn didn’t care much for Julie either, because she was such a scheming woman.

Julie sat down next to Grandma Anita, grinning and greeting Grandma Terrill and Grandma Susano.

Grandma Susano squinted at Julie. “Who is this? It seems she had plastic surgery. I can’t quite recognize her.”

Grandma Susano was always blunt. Her reading glasses didn’t help her see clearly as well. Both Anastasia and Flynn laughed at this.

Julie felt embarrassed. She smiled awkwardly.

Grandma Anita said, “This is Devin’s daughter, Julie. Can’t you recognize her?”

Everyone in their circle knew Devin. However, Grandma Susano, not recognizing Julie, shook her head. “I really can’t recognize her. She’s quite pretty though. But her chin is just a little too sharp, like a chisel.”

Grandma Susano was really a jokester.

Julie’s face changed colors faster than a chameleon. She didn’t know how to respond. Grandma Anita looked at Julie’s chin. “What’s wrong with it? It looks fine. Julie is my choice for a granddaughter-in-law.”

Grandma Terrill quickly asked, “Is Flynn dating with this girl?”

Flynn quickly clarified, “Grandma Terrill, I am single.”

Grandma Anita said, “No, I am thinking of making a match between Julie and my eldest grandson. When they were kids, Julie and Herman used to play together all the time. Julie even mumbled about marrying Herman. I thought they were perfect for each other at that time, so I wanted Julie to be my granddaughter-in-law when she grew up.”

Grandma Anita completely disregarded Anastasia’s presence. Of course, she said this on purpose.

Julie blushed and said, “Grandma, those were just childhood fantasies. I can’t believe you still remember.”

Flynn reminded, “Grandma, my eldest brother is already married. It’s not appropriate to discuss this.”

Grandma Susano added, “It’s great that your eldest grandson didn’t marry this girl. Her facial features signify lack of fortune.”

People of her age usually believe in face reading.

Grandma Anita was taken aback. “How is Julie lacking in fortune? Your eyesight must be failing you.”

Grandma Susano defended herself, “I’ve seen a lot of people in my time. I can’t be wrong. Look at this girl. She has thin lips, pointed chin, and her forehead is not full. These features signify a bitter and mean personality. Now, look at your granddaughter-in-law. Her full forehead and round buttocks signify a fortune-bringing wife and a mother of many children.”

Anastasia didn’t say anything, but immediately received an envious look from Julie due to Grandma Susano’s comments.

Anastasia was helpless. She hadn’t said anything. With the two grannies making strong points, there was no need for her to intervene.

She had been giving the two grannies a easy win. The grannies, having lived for many years, saw through Grandma Anita’s dislike for Anastasia.

As Anastasia handed them the victory, they decided to back her. Both the grannies didn’t want Grandma Anita to make a mistake and lose a good granddaughter-in-law.

Upon hearing the “mother of many children” comment, Grandma Anita scoffed, “Mother of many children, huh? She’s been married to Herman for quite a while now, but there is still no sign of a baby.”

Grandma Anita knew that Anastasia could not conceive, but she couldn’t openly say this. It would make people laugh at her.

Grandma Terrill said, “Children, you know, it’s all about fate. Maybe one day she will conceive. Anita, I told you before, you are going to face a major crisis this year. But you will also meet a benefactor. If you want to turn misfortune into blessing, you need to cherish this benefactor.”
