Chapter 445 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 had unknowingly eaten the drugged soup, and Katie, stuck in her plan, had no choice but to serve the bird’s nest soup as well. Both dishes were laced with abortifacients, a double dose of trouble.
The drugs wouldn't kick in right away. After serving the bird's nest soup, Katie forced a smile and said, "Miss, we're running low on fruit at home. I'm heading out to get some."
Anastasia, not noticing anything strange about Katie’s behavior, nodded. "Sure, go ahead, Katie. And don't overwork yourself. After you're done, take a break."
"Alright, alright," Katie replied, guilt gnawing at her. She couldn't bear to stay any longer or look Anastasia in the eyes. She quickly changed her clothes in the maid's room and left.
Once outside Southridge Estates, Katie immediately called Granny Anita. "The drugs have been administered. I watched Miss eat them myself. Granny, about the money..."
On the other end, Granny Anita couldn't hide her glee. "Don't worry, the cash is ready for you."
Granny Anita didn’t dare to make a bank transfer, fearing it might be traced back to her, which would make facing her great-grandson impossible. She preferred keeping things quiet rather than causing a scene.
Anastasia's pregnancy was already unstable, so if a miscarriage happened, they could easily explain it away.
After updating Granny Anita, Katie glanced back at Southridge Estates. She didn't dare return immediately and decided to go grocery shopping to kill time.
Anastasia had a good appetite that day. She ate a hearty portion of chicken and chestnuts and finished the bird's nest soup.
Feeling drowsy after lunch, Anastasia yawned and went upstairs to rest. Salma, feeling energetic, stayed downstairs in the living room, chatting with her old friends over the phone.
Anastasia soon fell asleep, not knowing why she felt exceptionally tired. In her sleep, she had a nightmare.
She woke up less than half an hour later, her heart racing and a strange sense of panic washing over her. Clutching her chest, she took deep breaths, trying to calm herself. As she shifted her position, she noticed a bright red stain on the sheets.
