The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 99 read online:

In Chapter 99 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 99 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. 

Selena was basking in the glory of Anastasia's departure, pouring herself a glass of red to celebrate.

The office door was pushed open just as she took her first sip.

Seeing Victor stride in with a serious expression, she asked with a puzzled smile, "What's up, Victor? You look pretty rushed."

"Did you fire Anastasia?" questioned Victor.

"Sure did," Selena admitted, swirling her wine glass leisurely. "She quit on her own. She wasn't a good fit here. She pissed off Blake. I emailed you about it ages ago, didn't you get it?"

"So what if she pissed off Blake?" Victor crossed his arms, standing his ground. "Even if she screwed up big time, there's always someone to fix it. That's not your problem. You fired her. Are you expecting us to cover for your mistake? How long has she been gone? Call her right now and get her back here."

Selena was taken aback as she said, "Victor, I've never seen you this ticked off. It's just a new assistant I fired. How bad could it be? She's already gone. I’m not gonna call her back."

It was the first time Selena saw Victor lose his cool, and it was quite a sight to see him get all rough around the edges.

Usually, Victor was the picture of elegance, always warm and friendly towards his subordinates.

They even had a sort of friendship beyond work. Victor always had a smile for her, never anything but polite.

Looking defeated, Victor paced around with hands on his hips, trying to keep his chill.

He pointed at Selena and said, "Fine, miss high and mighty, Selena, I'm telling you for the last time, stop messing with Anastasia. If you want to keep your job, get her back here. I'm saying this for your own good, not as your boss, but as a friend."

Selena froze, laughing sarcastically, "Victor, I'm the head jewelry designer at Elysian Technologies. Do you think they'll fire me over a newbie? She managed to piss off the Ledford family. Even Everlee called me, insisting on firing Anastasia. If you want me to bring her back, then tell me, who is she?"
