As the couple grapples with the shocking revelation of their shared past, the town of Riverdale becomes a backdrop for both confrontations and moments of quiet introspection.
Chapter 140 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.
From the outside, Selena seemed to have no fear of Anastasia, but deep down, she was still a bit spooked by her.
Anastasia looked pretty average, but there was something unsettling about her. She was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode at any moment and potentially deliver a crippling blow.
If it weren't for Wendy's picky nature, Selena wouldn't have had to resort to plagiarizing Anastasia's work in order to create something that would please her.
Selena was a top student from a prestigious university and had won many awards abroad. In contrast, Anastasia was just a high school graduate with no real experience in jewelry design. So, Selena copying Anastasia's work was kind of a bitter pill to swallow. But when Wendy saw Anastasia's work, she instantly loved it and placed an order for the finished product.
Anastasia quit arguing with Selena and returned to her seat, calming herself down. But she wasn't planning on letting this slide.
"Anastasia, I'm beat. I need a break," Lauren said tiredly, having spent the morning shopping for materials. She plopped into a chair and moaned, "I came here to chase a guy, but I haven't even seen him. I'm working my butt off every day, and I'm still broke. What am I doing this for, Anastasia?"
Anastasia teased, "Didn't you say that as long as you're close, you'll eventually run into him? You're going to be the future wife of his."
"I'm just wasting my energy," Lauren admitted. "Mr. Salstrom is at the head office. He won’t come to our branch. I really messed up."
Anastasia asked, puzzled, "Lauren, as the heiress of the Mill family, meeting the CEO shouldn't be a problem. Why go through all this?"
"You just don't get him," Lauren evaded. "He's out of everyone's league. No other woman can get within three meters of him, except for his secretary and mother. Let me grab a drink."
Anastasia asked curiously, "Doesn't this man plan to get married? Lauren, are you sure Mr. Salstrom is into women?"
Hearing that, Lauren spewed out the water she was drinking, looking around nervously, afraid that someone might have heard Anastasia. "Anastasia, you're really pushing it. If your words reach the CEO, we're in deep trouble."
