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 401 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 dialed up Duncan, setting a meet at the café next to the hospital. She also made a call to Anthony at the orphanage.
Anastasia did not question Anthony. Instead, she spoke in a casual tone, “Thanks, Anthony, for the effort in finding my daughter. She has been found now. I really appreciate it.”
Anthony laughed, “Congratulations then, it’s Layna, right?”
“No.” Anastasia replied in a nonchalant tone. “My daughter is someone else. Coincidentally, I found her. I had a DNA test with Layna and unfortunately, she’s not my child. I’ve already contacted Duncan and will be sending Layna back to him.”
Anastasia’s words left Anthony momentarily stunned because that man said that Anastasia would accept Layna as her own. The only way for that to happen was to tamper with the DNA test. How could it turn out negative?
Anthony was unsure of what went wrong, but it was none of his business. He was just responsible for introducing the child to Anastasia. Afterwards, it had nothing to do with him.
Anthony chuckled on the phone. “Congrats. I just played a minor role. Now that you found the child, the wish is fulfilled.”
Anastasia politely replied, “Yes, thank you, Anthony. I’ll personally thank you some other day.”
“Alright.”
After hanging up, Anthony wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, mulling over the situation. After some thought, he called his contact. “Mr. Salstrom, Ms. Jewell just called me. The DNA test results show that Layna isn’t her daughter. She has found her own daughter.”
Joseph on the other end of the line was equally surprised. “How is that possible?” Joseph asked sternly. “Are you sure Anastasia told you this? The DNA result showed that it’s not a match?”
“Yeah, she just called me. I want to inform Mr. Salstrom immediately.”
This result left Joseph dumbfounded. He had already bribed the testing agency. There could only be one result - Layna was Anastasia’s daughter.
Joseph had planned it all. Layna was stubborn, arrogant, and vain. If she entered the Salstrom family, she would cause a ruckus. Once Granny Anita found out, Anastasia and Herman wouldn’t have a moment of peace. But now, the plan had miscarried even before it was executed.
Joseph was at a loss, not knowing where it went wrong. He immediately called the testing agency to confirm. As soon as Joseph hung up with Anthony, Dailey confronted Anthony.
