The Bond Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 777

"Alright, let's head there."

Hearing the name of the place, Herman felt a strange sense of familiarity that he couldn't quite place. As the car started moving, the driver began chatting with him.

"First time in Riverdale, sir?" the driver asked, catching Herman's eye in the rearview mirror. "I've been driving cabs here for ten years. This area used to be nothing but empty fields. Look at it now—skyscrapers everywhere. It's grown so fast."

Herman replied, "It's not my first time here, but I don't remember much of it."

"So, are you visiting or job hunting?" the driver asked. "I know some job agencies that can help with everything, even finding a place to stay."

Herman chuckled, "You seem to have quite the network."

"Gotta make a living," the driver said with a smile. "I have three kids, and living in Riverdale isn't cheap. Plus, my parents are back in my hometown, so I have to earn. What about you, sir? Married, kids? A handsome guy like you must be married to a wonderful woman."

A wife and kids...

Herman had never really thought about having a family. Since his amnesia, his past was a complete blank. He only knew he was dating Sandy and that Nicholas was his father. But after noticing some inconsistencies with Nicholas and Sandy, he started questioning everything.

"Maybe," Herman said uncertainly.

The driver laughed, "Family isn't a 'maybe' thing. You've either got one or you don't."

Herman stayed quiet, unsure how to answer. He genuinely didn't know.

As the car continued through the night, Riverdale's streets were mostly quiet, except for the Night Market, which buzzed with life and the aroma of street food.

The driver dropped Herman off at the market's entrance. "Just head in here, sir. Plenty of food and even some hotels if you need a rest."
