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 dropped a few words and Julie's eyes were already welling up, her face turning red as a beet.
"Mr. Salstrom, I didn't mean anything by it." Julie's smile was hanging by a thread, looking more like a cry than a grin. "Even if our blind date didn't work out, I thought we could still be friends. After all, our dads have been buddies for years and we practically grew up together."
"If I've done anything to give you the wrong idea, I apologize." Herman wasn't moved in the slightest. His gentle side was reserved only for Anastasia, no other woman.
"Mr. Salstrom, I..."
"I've got stuff to deal with. Please, enjoy your evening." With that, Herman strode off towards Jarod, they exchanged a few words, and then headed upstairs together.
Julie watched Herman's retreating figure with infatuation. She had dreamt about him more times than she could count. In her dreams, Herman was tender and passionate, causing her to fall head over heels for him time and again.
This only deepened her love for him.
When Herman was still single, she fantasized about their wedding day every day. But now that Herman was married, her dreams felt like they’d been brutally shattered.
How could she accept this?
"What's the point of embarrassing yourself over and over?" Collin appeared behind her out of nowhere.
Julie glanced up, holding back tears. "It's my business. You don't need to get involved."
"I've known Herman for years. I know his character well. The Salstroms are devoted folks, and once they've found their partner, that's it."
Julie clenched her teeth. "I don't believe it. No man can love only one woman all his life."
Collin casually let slip, "A few years back, Herman did have another woman."
Julie pressed, "When? Who was she?" She had always thought that there was no one else in Herman's heart, aside from Anastasia. Now, she found out there was another woman in his past. How come she didn't know a thing?
