In Chapter 83 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 83 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 held her breath, her eyes glued to the dart flying through the air.
Everyone else was watching too.
Everlee unconsciously clenched her hands and was quite nervous. She worried that the dart might hit the target.
Blake was full of confidence. However, his thrown dart didn't even touch the dartboard and fell to the ground.
This scene surprised Blake and everyone else present. Only Anastasia and Everlee secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Blake couldn't believe it, "How is this possible? I've always had good aim."
When Blake looked at the others, none of the rich kids dared to meet his gaze.
Anastasia said, "Blake, you lost. Accept the consequences. I can go now. Everlee, let me know when you're free. I'll wait for your message."
Everlee was stunned and couldn't speak for a moment.
Blake felt embarrassed in front of the rich kids. Suddenly, he became angry, "This round doesn't count. Let's go again."
"Blake, you should accept the consequences of losing." Anastasia said. "You're an influential person in this circle."
Even if he played again, Anastasia was sure Blake couldn't hit the target because she had secretly removed the magnet behind the dartboard when she picked up the dart.
Blake always hit the target because he had the help of the magnet.
When Everlee was playing darts, she noticed someone put it up when everyone else was not paying attention.
This was just to keep these rich kids happy. Blake was the leader among them, so everyone naturally let him have his way.
Blake was speechless. He had never been this defeated before. If he let Anastasia leave, his reputation would be ruined.
Thinking about this, Blake grabbed Anastasia's hand, "I've never met a woman I couldn't have. Today, I want to see what a married woman feels like."
With that, Blake started to drag Anastasia into a room, intending to rape her.
The others were egging him on, "Blake is so awesome."
"Blake is such a man."
Their praises only boosted Blake's confidence, and he dragged Anastasia along without regard.
"Blake, this is wrong. Let me go. I'm going to call the police." Anastasia panicked. She was too naive to think that she could reason with these rich kids.
Everlee also stepped forward, "Blake, let her go. She's a lowly woman. Are you willing to go to jail for her?"
