In Chapter 252 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 252 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 said, "Herman did some investigation. Pattie's biological parents died in a car accident. The community sent her to an orphanage before she was adopted by Leo and Penny."
"I understand." Katelyn felt a twinge of disappointment, for some reason. It would have been nice if the child were theirs.
Anastasia glanced at the clock and noticed it was almost lunchtime. "Let's have lunch at home at noon. I'll go buy some groceries." Anastasia suggested.
Katelyn smiled and said, "Sure, I can chat with your mom to pass the time."
"Alright." Anastasia picked up her keys and said to Pattie, "Pattie, be a good girl and behave while I'm out."
Pattie obediently replied, "Okay."
Anastasia headed to the market, which was just around the corner from the residential area. It was a swift errand, and she soon returned with groceries. While entering the neighborhood, she noticed Tavon’s car parked near the entrance.
Tavon was in conversation with a woman, apparently inquiring the security guard about something. Anastasia was aware that Tavon wouldn't give up so easily. She didn't avoid them but continued walking towards the entrance with her groceries.
Upon seeing Anastasia, Tavon approached her with a smile, “Ana, you went grocery shopping?” Anastasia didn’t respond, thinking that it was obvious to anyone that she had been shopping.
Ashley, the woman with Tavon, noticed that Anastasia wasn't responding and said with a smile, "Ana, your dad and I came to take you back to Willowbrook."
"I have no plans to go to Willowbrook." Anastasia replied coldly, "Please let me pass."
Ashley hurriedly continued, "You accepted the house and stocks, so why won't you go now? If you don't go, what about...?”
