The Bound Between Us

Chapter 102
As they approached, Anastasia’s heart started to race
“Oh crap,” Anastasia thought nervously.
Clutching her personal items, she forced a smile and greeted them, “Hey there.”
Anastasia recognized Kenny from the TV.
Given Blake’s current situation, Anastasia felt this greeting was a bit inappropriate, but she didn’t know what else to say.
She tried her best to stay cool and not look scared.
Just as Anastasia thought they were here to give her a hard time, Kenny kindly asked, “Are you Ms. Jewell?”
Kenny didn’t dare to call Anastasia Mrs. Salstrom because Herman had made it clear that he didn’t want their relationship to be
public
Their marriage was a secret, unknown to the outside world, suggesting they didn’t want to be disturbed, so Kenny naturally didn’t
dare to spill the beans.
Anastasia nodded, Tm Anastasia, about last night. I’m sorry.”
Before Anastasia could finish, Kenny quickly said, “Last night was all my foolish sons fault. He offended you. As a father, I didn’t
discipline him properly. That’s my responsibility. I hope you can forgive my foolish son’s mistake. Blake, apologize to Ms Jewell.”
Lying on the stretcher, Blake said to Anastasia, I’m sorry. Ms. Jewell, I was drunk last night. Please forgive me.”
Anastasia was baffled. Weren’t they here to give her a hard time?
Why were they being so understanding and apologizing?
The Ledford’s grand entrance naturally drew a crowd.
The spectators were colleagues from inside and outside the company, including design department employees.

Initially, they thought Anastasia was in big trouble, and the Ledfords were here to make her life difficult. But Kenny’s words took
them by surprise.
Who was Kenny?
He was the president of Ledford Corporation, and he was apologizing to Anastasia.
In the business world, there weren’t many people who could make Kenny apologize. What was Anastasia’s background?
Lauren, who had initially come downstairs to see off Anastasia, thought they were here to cause trouble and was about to step in
to help.
Before Lauren could get there, she saw Kenny respectfully calling Anastasia Ms. Jewell and admitting his mistakes.
Blake had always been a bully in their circle. When had he ever apologized?
Now, he was being carried in to apologize to Anastasia, which was hard to believe
Anastasia was also stunned. Blake, who was so arrogant last night threatening to kill her, was now apologizing?
Was the sun rising from the west?
Seeing Anastasia remain silent, Kenny thought she was reluctant to forgive, and someone immediately handed over a box of
jewelry.
“Ms. Jewell, this is just a small token of my appreciation Please accept it to calm your nerves,” Kenny said earnestly. “If you have
any other demands, feel free to make them. If it’s within my power, I won’t refuse”
Anastasia stared at the box of jewelry, regaining her focus, “Mr. Ledford, you’re too kind. This is too valuable, and I wouldn’t dare
to accept it”
“It’s just a small gift, not valuable at all. You must accept it. If you’re not satisfied, I can have some more sent over.”
Kenny mistakenly thought Anastasia didn’t like these and the Salstroms had all the good stuff. These jewelry pieces might not
appeal to Anastasia, so he started feeling a bit anxious.
Kenny’s series of actions even stunned Selena, who was getting ready to leave.

In disbelief, Selena turned to Lauren, “Is that Kenny, the president of Ledford Corporation? What is he doing?”
Lauren, annoyed by Selenas bullying of Anastasia, impatiently replied, “Can’t you see? The Ledfords are here to apologize to
Anastasia.”
