The Bound Between Us

Chapter 782

Flynn was utterly confused. How could he have known?

Anastasia gently reminded him, "Remember eight years ago at the Electric Avenue bar? You and Collin got Herman drunk, and he ended up with a woman. Does that sound familiar?"

Flynn's eyes lit up as he recalled, "Oh yeah, I remember now. We even asked my brother about it later, and he denied it at first but eventually admitted it. He said he couldn't remember what she looked like. Wait, are you saying that woman was you, Anastasia?"

Anastasia nodded, confirming, "Yes, that woman was me."

Flynn was astonished. "Wow, that's just... unbelievable."

It seemed destiny had been at work all those years ago.

Anastasia also marveled at the coincidence. If she hadn't put the pieces together, Pattie's true parentage might have remained a mystery forever.

Feiman jumped in, "Flynn, is this for real?"

"Absolutely," Flynn replied excitedly. "Dad, remember how you always said Pattie felt like family? Just look at how much she resembles Herman. Tons of people have commented on it. She's definitely got the Salstrom family genes. We don't even need a DNA test."

Katelyn, standing nearby, was stunned. "Is Pattie really Herman's daughter?"
