Chapter 87 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.
Ava, with tears in her eyes, held Blake's hand and said, "Blake, my sweet grandson."
Everlee couldn't hold back her tears either, feeling a pang in her heart.
She had always liked Blake, but unfortunately, Blake was a well-known playboy.
Blake was always chasing pretty girls, but with Everlee, he was just friends, never crossing the line.
That was why Everlee, who was usually assertive, would become gentle in front of Blake.
She just wanted to please Blake and couldn't control him, which could be seen by her behavior at Éclipse Lounge. When Blake took a fancy to Anastasia, she was jealous but could only watch.
Blake was first pushed into the ward; at this time, the manager of Éclipse Lounge walked towards Kenny.
"Mr. Ledford, I'm Walter, the manager of Éclipse Lounge." Walter handed over his business card and bowed respectfully, "On behalf of Éclipse Lounge, I apologize for the incident that occurred today. How is Blake's condition?"
Kenny didn't take the card. In his position, he didn't care for a mere manager.
Kenny sternly questioned, "My son was beaten at Éclipse Lounge; you should take some responsibility for this. I give you one hour to find out who beat my son, or else I will hold Éclipse Lounge responsible."
Walter was very humble and said, "Yes, this is the responsibility of Éclipse Lounge. Don't worry, we will find out who beat Blake as soon as possible."
At that time, Herman went upstairs wearing a mask; no one recognized him, and Walter hadn't checked the surveillance yet.
As long as he checked the surveillance and the list of people who entered Éclipse Lounge today, he would know who it was.
Éclipse Lounge was a membership-based establishment with real-name registration, so those who entered and exited Éclipse Lounge were always wealthy.
However, this did not guarantee that no one would sneak in with a membership card or be brought in by someone else.
"Not as soon as possible; I'm giving you an hour. If you can't find the person, Éclipse Lounge will bear the consequences."
