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 316 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.
Ashley was filled with regret. "I was just anxious and worried that if I entrusted this task to someone else, it might not be done well, so I took matters into my own hands," Ashley admitted in a rush. "Tavon, what do we do now? You have to think of something."
Ashley was scared, and he knew it.
Tavon was aware of Ashley's plot against Anastasia, but he hadn't expected such a foolish tactic.
"Anastasia hasn't taken any action so far, and the police haven't shown up yet. It means she hasn't reported anything, so there's still a chance to turn this situation around,"
Tavon analyzed. "Even if you hand over the evidence to the authorities, the Morton family's influence would protect you. Plus, Anastasia shares our blood. No matter what, she's family. She wouldn't turn you into the police. However, this does mean she now has leverage over you."
Ashley let out a sigh of relief at the thought that Anastasia might not report her to the police. But soon after, she snapped bitterly, "That cunning girl, she wouldn't be thinking of blackmailing us, would she?"
"That's not entirely impossible." Tavon replied, puffing on his cigar. "Anastasia is very cunning. Your failure today proves she's been suspicious of us and has been on guard. Smart girl."
"You're even praising her now," Ashley seethed. "I knew that conniving girl wasn't as simple as she seemed. She dreams of getting a third of the Morton family fortune. In her dreams."
"Now that we've shown our true colors, the chances of her donating bone marrow to Sandy have vanished," Tavon mused. "We'll have to come up with another plan."
"We've been waiting for so long, and we still haven't found a suitable bone marrow match. Do you actually expect to use our son's bone marrow to save Sandy? That's absolutely out of the question." Ashley retorted in panic.
"Of course we can't use Sean's," Tavon agreed. "Sean is my only son. I wouldn't risk his health to save our daughter."
Tavon was a the kind of man who valued sons over daughters. He could love his daughter, but his son was undoubtedly more important. Only a son would be able to carry on the family business and take the Morton family to the next level.
Ashley was at a loss. "What do we do now? We can't just let Sandy die."
"Calm down. It's not over yet," Tavon said, puffing on his cigar. "If only Anastasia were a son. I'd seriously consider accepting her into the family."
