Chapter 134 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.
Herman cracked a smile, saying, "If you run into these issues again, just give me a shout, alright? Don't bottle it all up. A family is a two-person job. I've got to shoulder some of the load."
"I just didn't want to be a bother," she replied.
The topic reminded Anastasia about the new house. "I didn't get a chance to ask you last night. How'd you manage to scrape together enough dough to buy the house?" This was a million-dollar pad, and if it was all on Herman's salary, it would take decades to afford.
Herman took her hand and led her towards the dining room, saying, "This is money my folks left me. They wanted me to have enough to buy a house when I tied the knot. They thought it would give you a sense of security, even if it's joint property."
Herman was still holding his cards close to his chest. He knew the house alone had been enough to get Anastasia all fired up. Some things had to be handled cautiously.
The breakfast table was loaded with food, and Anastasia was beginning to feel peckish. Between bites, she continued, "Can you handle the paperwork for the houses we buy after we're hitched on your own without me signing off?"
"I've got contacts who specialize in this kind of thing. Shouldn't be too tough," Herman replied nonchalantly. "You're the lady of the house. You can rest easy."
"Did Monica say something to you? How come you're spilling all the beans now?" she asked.
Herman gave a chuckle. "The property management called."
It was the call from the property management that had brought the house issue to light for Herman. He figured it was time to come clean.
Anastasia asked, "Aren't you worried that I'll break up with you and then take half the house since my name is on the deed?"
Herman didn't seem to mind. He laughed and said, "If that ever happens, it will mean I screwed up. If I can't even keep my wife, the house should be yours."
Anastasia laughed. "You're really laying it on thick today. You were a bit wary of me at first, weren't you?" If not, he wouldn't have kept it from her.
Herman nodded honestly. "More like observing, I'd say. It's a normal mindset, Anastasia, but it doesn't affect my feelings for you. I enjoyed getting to know you better and then falling for you. I hope we can grow old together."
