In Chapter 313 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 313 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.
Following Anastasia's instructions, Benny quickly replied to Ashley's nagging, "All set, coming down soon."
"Hurry up, don't get caught." Ashley reminded him over the phone.
"Okay, okay." Benny repeated.
Seeing the right moment, Anastasia hung up.
Benny turned to Anastasia and Flynn with a scared face, "I've done what you guys asked for, can you let us go now?"
Clyde stuttered again, "We didn't take any money or hurt anyone, and we did everything you asked. Can you let us go now?"
Anastasia stood up, "Hold your horses. There's one more thing I need you two brothers to do." She had a plan in mind.
Flynn asked, "Anastasia, what's your next move?"
A determined glint flashed in Anastasia's eyes, "I want to see what Ashley is up to. This is the perfect crime evidence. How can I let it slip? Flynn, wrap Clyde in a sheet, you and Benny carry him down and take him to the back alley. If we're going to play, we hit it big."
Flynn immediately understood Anastasia's intentions. If they could prove that Ashley intended to kidnap Anastasia, Ashley would be toast. He picked up the sedative they’d found on the brothers earlier, smiled at them and said, "Sorry, guys." Then, Flynn injected Clyde with the sedative, leaving just Benny.
Flynn warned, "If you don't want to end up behind bars, you better cooperate. I'm going to unwrap the sheet. You get dressed, and we'll carry him down together."
Benny quickly nodded, "Okay, I promise to cooperate."
Anastasia waited at the foyer. Flynn untangled the sheet and Benny got dressed. The two then carried Clyde out.
