The Bond Between Us novel Chapter 409

When a husband cheats, it’s the cruelest thing for the wife to find out from someone else.

Herman’s words made him feel ashamed. “I’ll explain everything to your mom,” he promised. The secret he had been carrying for decades weighed heavily on his heart, like a boulder. He felt breathless under its weight.

Herman did not say anything else. He walked towards the elevator and left Eagle Corporation.

Downstairs, he ran into Katelyn, who had been following Feiman. He calmly intercepted her. “Mom, what are you doing here?”

“I followed your father,” Katelyn replied. “Herman, your father said he was going to meet his friend, but he drove all this way. There must be something going on. Did you see your father?”

Instead of answering, Herman asked, “Mom, did you drive here?”

Katelyn looked puzzled. “No, I didn’t.”

“I’ve had a bit of bourbon, so I can’t drive. Can you drive us out of here, mom?” Herman handed the car keys to Katelyn and walked straight towards the car.

Katelyn held the keys, grumbling, “Herman, why are you drinking in the middle of the day? And what were you doing here?”

“Just dealing with some stuff.” Herman got into the car. “Mom, let’s head back to the hospital. Pattie will start fussing if she doesn’t see me.”

Katelyn didn’t think too much about it. The thought of Pattie waiting at the hospital made her forget why she had followed Feiman in the first place. As she got into the driver’s seat, Katelyn asked, “Herman, did you find out about Pattie being Ana’s daughter? How did it suddenly turn out that Ana is her biological mother? Your grandma found out and caused a scene at the hospital.”

Herman frowned slightly. “Is Anastasia okay?”

“Your grandma is just tough with her words. She wouldn’t actually hurt Ana.” Katelyn started the car. “Herman, what do you think about all this? It’s all happening so fast. I can barely keep up.”
