Chapter 335
Anastasia was feeling jittery, despite her best efforts to keep calm. She caught a glimpse of the grand party unfolding on the screen before her, still finding it hard to believe. “Monica.” She said, “I’ve only ever seen gatherings like this on television. All the big shots from the business world are here tonight, people I’ve only ever heard of but never met.”
Monica, gripping Anastasia’s shoulder, replied, “Yeah, I’m really lucky to be here and see what a top-tier party looks like. All Herman needs to do today is introduce you to everyone, and you’ll have secured your spot as Mrs. Salstrom.”
Anastasia knew exactly what Herman was trying to do. He was giving her a metaphorical ‘chill pill’.
Their conversation was interrupted as Anastasia noticed Katelyn and Feiman heading towards someone on the live feed. “Is it someone important?” Anastasia wondered.
The live feed switched to the entrance where Flynn was seen escorting an old woman into the venue.

“Who is she?” Monica asked.
Seeing Herman approaching this old lady, with Katelyn and Feiman behaving respectfully around her, Anastasia recalled, “She must be Herman’s grandmother. I remember him mentioning that his grandma lived in the countryside and hadn’t visited Riverdale in years. She doesn’t involve herself in the Salstrom family affairs, but I suppose she must have made an exception for today’s company anniversary.”
Monica remarked, “She seems pretty intimidating. She doesn’t look like the sweet old lady type.”
Indeed, from the live feed, Anastasia could see that even Katelyn was being extremely cautious around her, as if afraid of offending her.
At the party, Salma was with Katelyn when the old lady spotted Katelyn and casually asked, “Who is this?”
Katelyn introduced, “Grannie Anita, this is Salma, your granddaughter-in-law’s mother. And Salma, this is my mother-in-law, Herman’s grandmother.”
Upon hearing that she was meeting her son-in-law’s grandmother, Salma quickly greeted, “Hello, ma’am.”
Grannie Anita gave Salma a once-over but didn’t engage in conversation. Instead, she turned to Herman, “Herman, come help your grandmother. I’m not as spry as l’used to be.”
“Of course.” Herman had a deep respect for Grannie Anita. He had spent a lot of time with her in the countryside when he was a child and they shared a strong bond.
As Herman helped Grannie Anita to her seat, he noticed her apparent dislike for Salma. Trying to change the subject, he asked, “Grandma, what made you decide to come back today? I’ve tried to get you to come before but you refused. If I had known you were coming today, I would have picked you up.”

“I wanted to surprise you.” Grannie Anita replied, her eyes full of affection for Herman. She added, “My grandson looks so handsome today. There are so many high-society ladies here. If you take a liking to any of them, let me know and I’ll propose on your behalf.”
Herman was Grannie Anita’s pride and joy, and she couldn’t help but beam with pride seeing her handsome grandson. Herman frowned at her words, “Grandma, have you forgotten? I told you, I’m already married. You’ll be meeting your granddaughter-in-law later.”
“Married? When did that happen?” Grannie Anita feigned confusion, “How come I didn’t know?”
Flynn stepped in, “Grandma, Herman is married, and his wife is as beautiful as a goddess. You’ll surely like her.”
“We marry for virtue, not beauty. What’s the use of a pretty face?” Grannie Anita chided Flynn, “You’re not a kid anymore. Are you playing tricks with your elder brother and trying to fool me? Do you think I wouldn’t know whether he is married or not?”
Flynn, thinking Grannie Anita truly didn’t believe him, reiterated, “Grandma, my brother really did get married.”
He then whispered to Herman, “Herman, I think grandma is getting a bit forgetful.”
Forgetful? Herman knew better. Grannie Anita wasn’t forgetful. She was simply not pleased with his choice of a bride.
