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 148 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.
Looking all fancy and indifferent, Herman strutted towards Cason. Each step made Cason's nerves jangle.
Herman smirked slightly, ordering the two behind him, “You guys, scram.”
His secretary and Nelson got the drift, murmured in acknowledgment, and left, shutting the door behind them.
Herman walked past Cason, flopped down on a leather couch, lit a cigarette, and took a drag with an elegant yet slightly rogue gesture.
His gaze was razor-sharp as he stared at Cason, his voice icy. “Spill the beans.”
Cason had initially planned to play mind games with Herman but he didn't dare now. Any more tricks and Herman might just kick him out without batting an eye.
Cason was here for one thing - money. If he kept dodging his debts, his creditors wouldn’t be so forgiving. If they came knocking, at best he'd get a beating, at worst, it could cost him his life.
Cason wheeled his chair closer, separated by a table, he said, “Mr. Salstrom, I bet you didn't know that Anastasia had a kid, did you? She had one back in college, which was why she dropped out.”
Cason knew the real reason why Anastasia had a child and about her memory loss but he wasn't about to spill it all.
Regardless, Anastasia having a child was a fact he wasn't lying about. Whether Anastasia was manipulated or it was her own doing, it didn't matter anymore. All he wanted was to irk Herman and get his money.
Herman, poker-faced, asked, “Got any proof?”
“Mr. Salstrom, take a look.” Cason presented the evidence. “These are Anastasia’s prenatal checkup records from the hospital. The child was born four years ago, so it should be over four years old now. Mr. Salstrom, I'm just like you, a man deceived by Anastasia. I don't want you to be fooled again.”
