The Bound Between Us

Chapter 320

Salma had a change of heart and wanted to go back to Riverdale, which surprised Anastasia. Just yesterday, she had been urging Anastasia to fight for her share of the family fortune. Now she was giving up?

Anastasia couldn’t stay in Willowbrook forever; she needed to return to her company. Pattie had been with Katelyn all this time, and Anastasia missed her.

“Alright, I’ll ask Herman when he’s going back,” Anastasia said. “He’s meeting a client and will be back later.”

“Is my son-in-law here?” Salma recalled seeing Flynn at the mall and asked, “Did he come with his cousin?”

“Herman arrived last night, and Flynn came with me yesterday,” Anastasia said. “And Flynn isn’t Herman’s cousin; he’s his brother.”

Now that Salma saw Tavon for who he was and wanted to return to Riverdale, Anastasia didn’t see the point in hiding anything anymore.

“Real brother?” Salma was puzzled. “How? Isn’t Herman an orphan with no family?”

Anastasia laughed, “That was a lie Herman told. When we first met at Cafe Bliss, I had mistaken him for someone else. But he played along and we ended up getting married. He’s actually the head of Elysian Technologies, and Flynn is his real brother. His aunt and uncle are his real parents.”

Salma was baffled, “Ana, let me get this straight. Herman isn’t who you thought he was, and his aunt and uncle are his real parents? Why does this family lie so much? And what does the head of Elysian Technologies do?”

“He’s the CEO of a big company,” Anastasia explained. “I didn’t know that his aunt was my mother-in-law before, but now that I do, I should pay her a formal visit.”
