In Chapter 241 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 241 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 led Kitty into the study. Coming face-to-face with this woman once again, he had zero patience left.
"Kitty, I'm gonna tell you one last time, take the dough and scram, or else, I got a million ways to make sure you never see daylight again."
Kitty saw the resolve in Herman's eyes. Even if she was a blockhead, she wasn't about to throw her life away.
The previous conflicts had shown her the financial might of the Salstrom family. She may have been tempted to play dirty, but she knew she was just a counterfeit, a pawn in someone else's game. If she succeeded, that person would expose her, if she failed, her fate would be even more miserable.
After some thought, Kitty decided that taking the money and making a run for it was the best option. She really didn't want to stir up trouble in the Salstrom family; she was pushed into it. Kitty also realized that this might be her last shot. She could give up on her dream of marrying a rich man, but it would be great if she could make some extra cash.
Kitty dropped the act, and her demeanor changed to a more candid one, no more pretenses. "Mr. Salstrom, if you want me to beat it, five million ain't gonna cut it."
Seeing Kitty smartening up, Herman's expression eased slightly. He leaned against the table and asked, "How much are you looking for?"
"Ten million," Kitty said, holding up a finger. "I ain't gonna let you swindle me. I know I can't worm my way into your rich folks' world, but I deserve some compensation. Ten million ain't no sweat for you."
"You've caught on quick, huh?" Herman's gaze was frosty. "If you spill the beans about who's pulling your strings, I'll throw in another ten million."
"Who's pulling my strings?" Kitty played dumb.
"Don't try to be slick with me," Herman said, tapping on the desk. "On the day of the Neon Dreams, it was your family gathering. I know your family. You are required to attend the gathering." Herman had just thought of what Flynn had told him, so he thought of Kitty's family gathering.
Hearing this, Kitty's eyes flickered, showing a touch of guilt. That day, she did go home for the gathering.
"I didn't go back that day because I couldn't get a flight ticket." Kitty was still making excuses. "Mr. Salstrom, just give me the money and I'll stop causing trouble."
