The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 211

Chapter 211 

Anastasia started to dwell on past confusions, suddenly feeling anxious. In a rush, she asked, “You’re saying Salma is looking for a child from four years ago? What the heck does that mean? What else did she say?” 

“You’re Salma’s daughter and you don’t know about this?” Rose replied, “Not long ago, I bumped into Salma. She was asking about a kid who was sent to Rainbow Haven four years ago, said she was helping a friend look for them. The friend lost a child four years ago, left it at the doorstep of an orphanage. I checked when I got home. In those months, no girls were taken in by the orphanage.” 

Anastasia knew all about Salma’s friends and relatives. No one among Salma’s friends had a child four years ago. 

Salma was getting on in years, and her friends were all in their forties or fifties; no way were they still having babies. Salma was lying. 

Anastasia thought back to that dream and the strange things Cason had said before, She remembered the unease she felt when Alessia was giving birth. Suddenly, a realization hit her, making her feel cold and numb all over. 

The child lost four years ago, could it have been… her own? 

Anastasia’s head throbbed with pain. She couldn’t remember the lost memories, no matter how hard she tried, it was all a blank. Anastasia forced herself to calm down, asking, “What else did Salma say about the child? When was the child lost?” 

Rose said, “Salma said the kid was lost in the winter four years ago. But Rainbow Haven didn’t have the child, the orphanage has been demolished now, andall the kids were moved to other orphanages or adopted.” 

“Thanks, I’ll pass on your words to Salma.” Anastasia tried to calm herself. 

Rose said, “Alright, you tell Salma, I won’t come again. I’m emigrating next week to live with my kids.” 

“Okay, best of luck.” 

After seeing Rose off, Anastasia sat alone on the sofa, pondering over recent events. Cason’s words terrified her. 

She grabbed her keys and left in a hurry, forgoing packing clothes for Salma, and hailed a cab to another women’s and children’s hospital. 

Anastasia was anxious; she desperately wanted to know if the child abandoned at the orphanage was hers. She had forgotten whether she had ever given birth. 

Anastasia reached the hospital and signed up for a gynecological examination, wanting to confirm if she had ever had a child. 

An hour later, when all the checks were done, Herman called to ask if she had packed Salma’s clothes and if he should come to pick her 

Anastasia made an excuse to brush him off, she was waiting for the doctor to call her number, and she needed to take her examination form to the doctor. While waiting, Anastasia was so nervous she bit her nails, even when she bit one off she didn’t notice. 

Suddenly, the system showed it was her turn, Anastasia took her examination form, and anxiously walked into the doctor’s office. 

“Hello.” Anastasia sat down. 

The doctor said, “Let me see your examination results.” 

Anastasia handed over the examination report, the doctor looked at it for a while, then asked, “Your health is excellent, no problems at all. The scar on your waist is new, and you should get that treated.”
