Chapter 556 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.
Gianna's voice trembled with a mix of anger and disbelief. "Are you serious? Did you really see them six years ago?"
A burning sense of betrayal flared in her chest.
Anastasia had once told her it was a case of mistaken identity at a coffee shop that led her to Herman. Gianna had envied Anastasia's luck, but now, knowing they had a history, she felt hoodwinked.
The woman who had just spilled the beans was Daria, a cocktail waitress at the Neon Dreams club. She had once roomed with Melinda, who tragically took her own life, but Daria continued working at Neon Dreams. Today, she was at the hospital for a check-up with her girlfriends and had casually gossiped about the wedding news she'd seen online.
Faced with Gianna's questioning, Daria assumed she was just another curious gossip seeker. "Of course it's true. It's been over six years, right at Neon Dreams. I heard from an old colleague that Anastasia used to work there too. She sure hit the jackpot, spending a night with Mr. Salstrom."
Gianna knew exactly what Neon Dreams was. Six years ago? Wasn't that right before Anastasia dropped out of college? A chill ran down Gianna's spine as a dreadful thought emerged. She suddenly had a hunch about little Pattie's parentage.
Anastasia had been vague about Pattie's biological father, but the timeline suggested it was during that period. Gianna had also heard from Monica that Anastasia had been tricked while working part-time and didn’t know the child's father. Seeing a resemblance between Pattie and Herman, Gianna's suspicions grew. Could Pattie actually be the daughter of Anastasia and Herman?
If Anastasia knew, she wouldn't keep Pattie from Herman. She had to get to the bottom of this.
In her heart, Gianna hoped it wasn't true. Pattie was the only stain on Anastasia's life. If that stain turned into a bargaining chip, Anastasia's position in the Salstrom family, in Herman's eyes, would be unassailable.
Gianna let go of Daria and quickly walked back to the hospital room, her expression troubled.
Daria was baffled by Gianna's reaction. "What a weirdo."
Her companion said wistfully, "After hearing all this, I'm green with envy for Mrs. Salstrom. Who knows, maybe one day my prince will come."
