The Bound Between Us

Chapter 789

"Wait, did Sandy really go to Willowbrook?" Anastasia was caught off guard by this revelation. Was Sandy actually at the scene of the incident? Her expression turned serious as she sat up straight, pausing the video with a click of the mouse.

On screen, Sandy was busy volunteering, helping the injured. She seemed genuinely compassionate. Many comments praised her as the "most beautiful hero," but Anastasia could see through the facade. Sandy was putting on a show. Every camera angle was perfect, and even her expressions seemed rehearsed. Despite her disheveled appearance, her makeup was flawless.

If Sandy was there, did she run into Herman? Dailey had mentioned that Herman might have been taken by someone. Rowan claimed he never saw Herman. Tavon gossiped that Sandy had a "boy toy" stashed somewhere. Anastasia replayed everything in her mind, considering the recent strategic moves by the Morton Group, which had Herman's signature style written all over them.

A daring thought crossed her mind-did Sandy take Herman? The possibility jolted her. She immediately called Dailey.

As soon as he answered, Anastasia blurted out, "Dailey, you said there's a good chance Herman was taken. Do you have any more leads?"

“I've been tailing Asher for days, but nothing unusual,” Dailey replied. "Don't worry, Ana, I'll keep a close eye."

"No, Dailey, we might be looking at the wrong person. I met Rowan, and he swore he hadn't seen Herman. I trust him." Anastasia didn't have a concrete reason for her trust in Rowan, but it felt right.
