Chapter 11 opens with Anastasia attempting to piece together the fragments of her forgotten memories, haunted by the striking resemblance of their daughter to a past she never knew she had. The quaint charm of Riverdale transforms into a landscape of uncertainty as Herman, determined to unearth the truth, confronts Anastasia with questions that demand answers.
Salma had been holding her breath for this moment. Herman's promise gave her a sense of tranquility. "Herman, now that you two are hitched, as a mother, I just want you to live happily, work together, and make every day count. That would ease my mind."
With affection in her voice, Salma said, "Ana's been without a father since she was a child. It was me who raised her alone. I want her happiness more than anyone else. If Anastasia steps out of line, send her back, I'll set her straight."
Even if there was a mistake, her daughter should be disciplined by her, not by others. No one should lay a finger on her.
Touched, Anastasia managed to whisper, "Mom."
Herman glanced at Anastasia, then solemnly promised Salma, "I'll give Anastasia the good life she deserves." The men of the Salstrom family took their marriage vows seriously. As long as Anastasia was willing to spend the rest of her life with him, he wouldn't let her down.
Anastasia looked at Herman, and despite only having met three times, and not really having any emotional connection, his every word and deed gave her a sense of security.
Herman said, "Dig in before the food gets cold. Give this restaurant's food a try and see if it suits your taste."
Anastasia took a bite and was pleasantly surprised. "This is so delicious! I've never been to such a fancy place before or had a meal this expensive. It's definitely worth every penny."
Herman laughed and said, "I'll make more money and bring you here once a month."
Anastasia quickly waved her hands, smiling, "That won't be necessary. You work hard for your money. Eating here once is more than enough."
Was his wife trying to save him money? Herman's eyes softened. Anastasia was such an easily contented woman. Her smile was lovely, like a warm spring breeze.
Seeing the two of them showing mutual respect, Salma's smile deepened.
As the three of them dined in the private booth, Flynn, who was also dining at the restaurant, was taken aback when he spotted Herman through a crack in the door. Did his eyes deceive him? Was his brother having a meal with a woman?
