In Chapter 90 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 90 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.
Just a moment ago, Kenny was fuming and roaring about punishing the person who hurt his son. He wanted to make him pay dearly and rot in jail for the rest of his life.
But now, looking at Herman, who admitted to hurting his son, Kenny wished he could turn back the clock a few minutes.
He wished none of this had happened.
He wished his stupid son had never crossed paths with Anastasia.
Kenny was completely shocked, and he couldn't regain his senses. After connecting the dots between Ledford Corporation's crisis and the files displayed on his computer, he finally understood.
The crisis at Ledford Corporation was Herman's revenge.
"Mr. Salstrom, maybe there’s a misunderstanding? You're married? When did that happen?" Kenny asked.
Herman was a well-known bachelor. No one knew he was married.
This was a bombshell.
Kenny thought help had arrived, but this was no help. It was a curse, accelerating the demise of Ledford Corporation.
Herman coldly smirked, "Do I need to report my marriage to you?"
"No, I didn't mean that." Kenny was flustered, and cold sweat began to trickle down his back.
Who Herman wanted to marry and when was none of his business.
"Mr. Salstrom, it seems we've had a huge misunderstanding. Our families don't know each other." Kenny quickly changed his tone. "My foolish son offended your wife. It was a stupid mistake."
Kenny finally got it. Herman's late-night visit wasn't a friendly one. He came to confront him.
And what Kenny initially thought was a friendly gesture was actually a dispute between the offender and the victim.
Herman closed his laptop, his tone icy. "Mr. Ledford, my wife is just an ordinary person. She's timid and can't handle stress. The 4 billion dollars that Ledford Corporation lost is just the interest. I can be unreasonable, and I am protective of my wife. Please understand, Mr. Ledford."
Kenny was speechless.
