In Chapter 648 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 648 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 sensed something was up but played it cool, not showing any signs.
Before she could reach for the medicine bottle, Julie, looking jittery, tightened the cap and said, “No worries, if it’s no good, we’ll just buy another one. It’s not like it’s expensive. You didn’t hurt yourself, did you?”
“Nope,” Anastasia replied with a smile, glancing at the bottle and making a mental note of its name.
After washing her hands, she said, “I should get going.”
“Anastasia, since we bumped into each other, why not stick around for a bit?” Julie suggested with a smile. “It’s fate that we met.”
“My husband’s waiting outside,” Anastasia said. “How about I bring him along?”
The mention of Herman made Julie inwardly panic. Now she was Kayleigh, not Julie, and after tricking Flynn before, she knew Herman would recognize her. Facing him was the last thing she wanted.
Feigning disappointment, Julie said, “Let’s not then. I wouldn’t want to interrupt your time together. Let’s plan for another day. I’ll just freshen up my makeup.”
“Alright,” Anastasia agreed, supporting her back as she walked out. At the door, she glanced back at Julie.
Julie caught her eye in the mirror and quickly smiled.
Anastasia smiled back and left.
Herman was outside, waiting. “I’ll drop you at the south gate, then head to the office,” he said.
“Sounds good.” Anastasia had been up early for a prenatal checkup and was feeling tired.
Once back, Anastasia immediately went to James, asking about the medicine bottle she had seen, “What’s this used for?”
“It’s a hand sanitizer, good for itching and antibacterial purposes,” James explained. “It also helps remove stubborn substances from the skin.”
