Seeing Mr. ter’s reaction, Nelson gave him a heads-up, “Mr. ter, this isn’t your first cooperation
with Elysian Technologies. You should know everything about Mr. Salstrom’s temperament.” Nelson
said, “Mr. Salstrom is head over heels for his wife. If there’s any marital strife, he won’t be able to pour
his heart and soul into this coboration.”
Mr. ter caught his drift immediately, “I didn’t think that through. I’ve been a bit muddled. Thanks for
the wake-up call.”
“No need to thank me.” Nelson said, “Let’s just wait for him patiently.”
With that, Mr. ter didn’t dare to raise a fuss anymore and waited patiently.
In the hotel room.
After a steamy sex session, Anastasia was so exhausted that her fingers felt like jelly. She didn’t have
the strength to move anymore. She shot a nce at Herman who was still as fresh as a daisy. “You’re
such a pervert.” She said.
Totally my bad. Take a good rest in the hotel today.” Herman said gently, “I’ll take you out for a walk
tonight.”
Anastasia sat up, saying, “I’ve got something to show you first.”
In a marriage, it was better to clear the air and avoid misunderstandings. Anastasia showed Herman
the photos on her phone, pulled a long face and said, “Exin

this to me.”
Herman took a quick peek at the photos and instantly got the picture. Instead of getting pissed at
Anastasia for her midnight raid, he was thrilled, “You’ve driven over 200 miles from Riverdale just for
these photos. I’m chuffed because it shows you care about me.”
Who else would check on him in the middle of the night if they didn’t care?
Anastasia pretended to kick him, “Don’t sugarcoat it. You should be damn d I didn’t find anythingst
night. Otherwise, you’d be toast.” Anastasia put on a tough act, as if warning Herman that she would
make him pay if he ever cheated on her.
Herman smiled, caught Anastasia’s foot and gently massaged it, “You’ve had a rough rideing all
the way here. I drank too muchst night. The woman was set up by our partners. Don’t worry, I didn’t
lay a finger on her. I shooed her away.”
Herman was desperate to stay alive, so he spilled the beans. At this point, he couldn’t afford to be
careless. He had to make everything crystal clear, or it would be like a ticking bomb.
Anastasia believed him and said, “I’ll let you off the hook this time. Clean up your act. Cut ties with
those female friends and admirers who are too-friendly. If there’s a next time, I can’t guarantee I’ll trust
you.”
Herman was smart. How could he not see the truth? If it was merely a set-up by the partners, they
wouldn’t dare to step on Anastasia’s toes. He needed to get to the
bottom of this.
Herman sweet-talked her, “My wife is generous, smart, beautiful, and kind-hearted. Trust me, you’re
the only woman in my heart. I’ll cut off all other women.”
Anastasia was happy to hear this. She gave Herman a once-over, “It’s not safe being a handsome
man. You’re always a chick ma.”
Hermanughed helplessly, “It’s all my fault.”
Anastasia burst outughing, “You’re such a smooth talker. Go do your thing.”
“Alright.” Herman stood up with a smile, then asked, “How did you know I was staying at this hotel?”
Anastasia teased, “Women are like the reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes in such matters. Finding out
isn’t rocket science.”
The smile in Herman’s eyes deepened, “It looks like you’re finally willing to put some effort into me.”
Only a woman who genuinely cared about him would go to great lengths to track him down.
Hearing this, Anastasia felt a bit guilty. She hadn’t really put her heart into caring for Herman before. It
was always him making the sacrifices for her. She ran all the way here to find him and he was actually
happy about it. It seemed that she hadn’t been performing her duties as a wife well before.
