In Chapter 213 of The Bond Between Us novel, the narrative takes a riveting turn, plunging readers deeper into the intricacies of Anastasia and Herman's evolving relationship. 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 213 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's tender care and sweet words were really making Anastasia squirm. How could she tell him and explain that she had a child?
Their first time, she was scared Herman would get the wrong idea. But there was no misunderstanding, she had a child before, so how could it be her first time?
The more Anastasia thought about it, the more uncomfortable and guilty she felt, and not to mention the guilt she felt for the child she never met.
Herman noticed something was off with Anastasia. Frowning, he asked, "Did Tavon come knocking on your door again?"
Anastasia turned around, closed her eyes, and tightly hugged Herman, trying hard to steady her voice, "No, I'm just tired. I need to rest for a while. I'll be fine once I wake up."
Herman knew it was a lie, but he didn't push it.
"Alright, rest well. I'll do some work in the next room." He said.
He was deliberately giving her some space. Right now, Anastasia really needed a quiet place to let her feelings out.
In the study room.
Herman was sitting in front of his computer, thinking about Anastasia's unusual behavior when Flynn called, "I can't handle the head of Unity Bank. We need you to step in."
"Alright." Herman replied in a deep voice, "Let Nelson arrange it. I'll meet with the him tonight."
Flynn had his limits; most people only cooperated with them because of Herman. Herman was the backbone of the company.
After the call, Herman told Anastasia he had to go out. Anastasia was left alone at home. The quiet environment made her mind wander, and she even thought about divorcing Herman.
