The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 308 read online:

In Chapter 308 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 308 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. 

Three demands, and two got rejected. That was like giving her a promise with no guarantees. Anastasia wasn't surprised at all. If Tavon had actually agreed, now that would've been a shock. She stood her ground, "Three demands, no compromise. I'm outta here if there's nothing else."

Seeing Anastasia about to leave, Ashley quickly signaled Tavon. But he remained silent.

Ashley stopped Anastasia, taking matters into her own hands, "I can agree to your three demands, but we have one too. You have to get typed and donate your bone marrow to Sandy." Their true intentions had finally come out.

Anastasia smirked, "Now it's you guys, the Morton family, who want me in. Not the other way round. You're not in a position to haggle. I have nothing to lose."

Seeing Anastasia's refusal to give in, Ashley was at a loss. She blurted out, "Don't tell me you're not tempted by the Morton family's wealth. Think about how much money is a third of the property. You'll never make that much in your lifetime."

Compared to the Salstrom family's assets, the Morton family's wealth was nothing. Even without the Salstroms, Anastasia had never considered leeching off the Mortons. She just wanted to show them the hard way.

When Ashley suggested Anastasia donate her bone marrow, a glimmer of hope sparked in Sandy's glum eyes. Her illness could take her life at any moment, and she was only twenty. She wanted to live.

Tavon tried to persuade her, "Ana, if you agree to Ashley's request, I'll meet your three demands."

Anastasia retorted, "What if I don't?"

Tavon resorted to the family card, "Ana, look at Sandy. She's only twenty and she’s so young. She calls you 'sister'. Can you bear to see her die?"

Anastasia was unmoved, completely indifferent to Sandy's violent coughing, which made her face turn red. Sean hurriedly poured some water, with Ashley getting all flustered. "Sandy, don't scare Mom." Ashley pleaded with Anastasia, "I'm begging you. Please! I'll kneel for you. Anastasia, please save my daughter."

Even though Ashley was begging, her tone was murderous. Anastasia found it ridiculous, as if she was responsible for Sandy's illness.

As Ashley was about to kneel, Anastasia didn't stop her. She just watched Ashley's theatrics, certain that Ashley wouldn't kneel. Seeing Anastasia's indifference, Ashley was at a loss. She didn't know how to end this awkward scene, and nobody was stopping her.

Ashley was extremely upset. At this point, Sean stepped in, "Mom, don't beg her. It's no use."

Sandy, weakly leaning on the chair, added, "Mom, don't force her. She has no obligation to save me."

"Finally someone gets it, I have no responsibility to help you." Anastasia turned to Sean, taunting him, "You're a man. If you care so much about your sister, why don't you save her yourself? Your bone marrow is a perfect match for Sandy. You can save her too. Why are you begging me who is a stranger?"

Her words left the Mortons in shock. Tavon and Ashley looked panicked, while Sean and Sandy were dumbfounded. The fact that Sean's bone marrow was a match for Sandy was news to them. Ashley and Tavon had kept them in the dark. Sean looked at his parents, questioning, "Dad, Mom, is it true that my bone marrow matches with Sandy's? Can I save her? Didn't you say our types didn't match?"

Sandy understood from their parents' panicked expression. They didn't want her brother to save her. They'd rather watch her die and suffer in pain, than have their son donate his bone marrow.

At that moment, Sandy's heart was filled with hatred. In their parents' eyes, her life was less important than her brother's health. People were selfish. The hatred in her heart was real.
