In Chapter 629 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 629 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.
The moment Anastasia locked eyes with Julie, an odd feeling stirred inside her. Despite being a stranger's face, there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Julie, seizing the moment, approached with a nod and a friendly smile. "Hey there, do you live around here? I'm doing a little survey on relationships for my internship. Just graduated and trying to get some real-world experience. Could you help me out?"
Anastasia, ever polite, shook her head. "Sorry, I don't live in this area."
"No worries," Julie replied with a grin. "We can still chat, right? What's your name, if you don't mind me asking?"
Anastasia wasn't thrilled about being quizzed by a stranger, but courtesy won out. "You can call me Ms. Jewell."
"Ms. Jewell," Julie beamed. "Mind if we exchange numbers? Maybe on WhatsApp?"
"I'd rather not," Anastasia replied succinctly.
Unfazed by Anastasia's reserved manner, Julie introduced herself further. "I'm Leonora, but everyone calls me Julie. Are you here alone?"
Julie's inquiry was thinly veiled, trying to figure out if Anastasia was solo or with company.
Anastasia found the probing impolite and turned the tables. "Do you live nearby?"
"Yeah, just across the street in that condo complex," Julie shared, spotting an opportunity for camaraderie. "Ms. Jewell, are you married? I noticed the ring."
Anastasia confirmed with a brief, "Yes."
