Afterwards suggests that the next thing happens as soon as the last thing has finished: ‘on Saturday morning I went to see Adrian in hospital. Afterwards I drove into town to do some shopping’.
When there is a long interval or delay between two actions or events, use later on: ‘I couldn’t understand why she hadn’t answered my letters. Later on I discovered that she had moved to a new address’.
