The Bond Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 491

Eight years ago, Anastasia and Monica went camping at Cloud Mountain and accidentally found themselves in the middle of a police raid.

Back then, Jason was a lean, wild-looking young man with unruly long hair. Now, eight years later, he was almost unrecognizable to Anastasia.

Jason's lips twitched slightly. "So, your first impression of me was that of an unlucky rookie cop, huh?"

Anastasia quickly apologized, "Oh, I didn't mean anything by it. It’s just such a surprise, that's all."

The nickname "unlucky rookie cop" was actually Monica's doing, after Jason's less-than-stellar debut where he got accidentally injured.

"You still remember that? I'm impressed," Jason said.

"It was a memorable incident. Your pants were almost yanked down by the perp, and you were wearing red boxers..." Anastasia realized she had said too much and quickly shut her mouth, offering an embarrassed but polite smile.

Why did she even bring that up?

Jason fell silent. That part of his past was something he'd rather forget.

"It's fine. I don't wear red anymore."

Anastasia was speechless. Why was he telling her about his underwear color now?

Discussing underwear in public was, to put it mildly, awkward.

Anastasia quickly changed the subject, "You didn't just bump into me by chance, did you? You came looking for me?"

She couldn’t believe in such a coincidence.

After eight years, it seemed unlikely he was here just to reminisce.

Jason nodded, "I've looked over your case. I wanted to talk. I need to know the whole story behind Grannie Anita's death, in detail."

Anastasia didn't want to recall that day. Her mind had been clouded with hate, and she barely remembered the details.
