The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 223 read online:
In Chapter 223 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 223 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.
When Anastasia said this, Salma felt very uneasy inside.
"Your dad wouldn't do that." Salma said, "You're his daughter. He's already said that he's got a house for you in Willowbrook. He's giving you shares in his company and wants you to come help manage the biz. He wants to train you up."
To make Anastasia believe, Salma showed her the shares transfer document she had hidden under her pillow.
Looking at her mother, Anastasia only felt pain in her heart but she knew she couldn't be angry. Her mother was already old, yet she was still being fooled by Tavon.
So what if Tavon gave her a house? She didn't pay for it. The house Tavon gifted could be taken back on a whim. And the shares transfer document seemed like a blank check, which Tavon could also reclaim at any time. It was just some meaningless sweetener.
Anastasia retorted, "Mom, do you want me to go back to my dad?"
Salma hesitated for a moment and said, "Tavon is your father, that's a fact that can't be changed. If he sincerely repents and accepts you, then my years of suffering would have been worth it."
Anastasia understood. Her mother had never forgotten Tavon and still held illusions about him. After more than twenty years of persistence, how could her mother easily let go?
"Mom, you rest first. We can watch and see if Tavon really repents for a while." Anastasia said.
Anastasia didn't believe Tavon would repent. This was just his performance. She didn't want to say too much. She didn't want to make her mother sad.
Anastasia's lack of reaction puzzled Salma, but she didn't say anything more.
After Salma finished her meal, Anastasia cleared the table and wiped Salma's hands. After all this was done, Anastasia poured water for Salma. Seeing Anastasia busy, Salma felt that she seemed to have something on her mind and asked, "Ana, is there something you want to say?"
Salma knew her daughter well.
Anastasia had been looking for an opportunity to ask her mother about the child. Hearing her mother ask proactively, Anastasia sat down, looked at her mother, and nervously wrung her hands, "Mom, there's something I want to ask you. I was going to wait until you were discharged."
