Chapter 172 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.
Anastasia looked over generously.
“Just what I need to boost my appetite.” Anastasia sat down, pushing the omelette and baked beans towards Herman Salstrom.
Breakfast was milk, paired with an omelette and baked beans, a very typical breakfast.
Anastasia was used to eating like this, and Herman was never picky, so she often cooked this.
Anastasia suddenly said, “Did you know that the CEO of Elysian Technologies got hitched?”
“I heard.” Herman felt a bit nervous, “How did you find out?”
Only insiders knew he got married, and he hadn't let slip a single word about who his spouse was. Anastasia wasn’t an insider, so there was no way she could know.
In the current situation, Herman wouldn't let any information about Anastasia leak out, let alone allow the media to freely report on her. Any rumors about him wouldn't make it onto the internet.
“I heard from a friend of Lauren, who is my colleague. Who would've thought Lauren is actually the daughter of the Mill family, she used to have a big crush on the CEO of Elysian Technologies. When she heard he got married, she was heartbroken. I promised her I'd introduce her to some hotties, only then did she calm down.”
Anastasia didn't mention she attended the party, to avoid trouble. There were many talented young people at the party who asked her for her contact details, if Herman pressed on, it would lead to unnecessary trouble.
Anastasia said, “What do you think about introducing her to your cousin? I think they would make a good match. Lauren is a rich heiress.”
Herman almost choked on his milk. “Anastasia, it's best not to go around playing matchmaker. They’re not a good fit and my cousin seems to have a girlfriend already.”
Lauren from Mill's Seasoning, Herman had some impression of her. He had heard Flynn complain about her a few times. She was a person who loved romance, and they would fight whenever they met. If Lauren was introduced to Flynn, his identity would be exposed.
Herman didn't know before that the Mill family's daughter had joined the jewelry company under Elysian Technologies, and only found out now.
“In that case, never mind,” Anastasia said regretfully. “But it’s quite a surprise that the CEO of Elysian Technologies got married so young. Do you think he might regret it? There were no rumors of him dating before and then all of a sudden, he got married. The wife of his must also be a rich heiress from a prominent family, right?”
Everyone at the party last night was guessing along those lines.
“Married at such a young age?” Herman chuckled. “He is already thirty, is that still young? His peers probably already have kids in grade school.”
