Chapter 220
Herman didnât want to get tangled up with Kitty any further. He left a check and walked out of the room with an air of indifference.
Flynn called after him, âHerman, wait up.â
Keeping a poker face, Herman said, âYou deal with it.â
âHow do I deal with it?â Flynn said with a bitter smile, âSheâs a woman, I canât just kick her out harshly. Did you or did you notâ¦?â
Herman shot him a sharp look and said irritably, âI canât remember.â
âWell, thatâs not good.â Flynn said, âIf itâs true, my sister-in-law wonât just let it slide. Sheâll be super pissed. She wonât punish you, will she?â
Herman glanced back at the room where Kitty was and said, âYou better investigate this woman thoroughly. If everything she says is true, give her some more money to make her leave. If sheâs lying, find out whoâs backing her.â
âYouâre saying Kitty is a pawn?â Flynn asked.
âA grocery store cashier wouldnât have the balls to pull off something like this.â Herman said coldly, âThis woman is greedy and vain. This is going to be a bit of a headache.â
Flynn muttered, âIf I bumped into a rich guy, Iâd stick to him like a leech too.â
Herman left the matter to Flynn to handle. He didnât quite trust anyone else with it, and he himself didnât want to have anything more to do with Kitty. If Anastasia found out, sheâd definitely be upset and give him an earful.
It was only after Herman had left that Flynn went into the room. Before he could say anything, Kitty handed him the check saying, âSir, I donât want this check. Please return it to Mr. Herman.â
Flynn was taken aback, âMs. Kitty, this money is enough for you to live comfortably. You might never earn this much in your life. Are you saying you want more?â
Kitty shook her head, âI donât want money, I want to be Mr. Salstromâs wife. If he doesnât believe me, Iâm willing to sign a prenup. I wonât ask him for a penny.â
Flynn chuckled and said, âSo youâre not after my brotherâs money. Are you after his personality then?â
Kitty felt slightly embarrassed. She lowered her head and said, âI only like Mr. Salstrom. If he doesnât want to take responsibility for me, then I donât want to live.â
âYouâve been living just fine without my brother for all these years. Why is it that now youâve found him, you canât live without him?â Flynn was good at arguing.
Kitty felt ashamed, âI know you look down on me, Iâm just a grocery store cashier. But Mr. Salstrom and I had a one-night stand, and he should take responsibility.â
Seeing that he couldnât reason with Kitty, Flynn said, âWhere do you live? Iâll take you home. My brother is having a meeting. Now that you know where he is, you donât have to worry about him running off.â
No matter what, he had to get Kitty out of there. If things got out of hand, it would be impossible to clean up the mess.
At the hospital.
Anastasia was taking care of the injured Salma, completely unaware of what was happening with Herman.
Cynthia and Gianna had left after visiting Salma in the morning. Anastasia didnât really have much to do as Herman had hired a nurse to take care of Salma. Most of the work was taken care of by the nurse. All Anastasia had to do was keep Salma company at the hospital. When it was time for lunch, Anastasia said to Salma, âMom, Iâm going to get some food. Just call the nurse if you need anything.â
âAlright.â Salma said.
Salma had injured her left leg and couldnât walk. She had to rest in bed.
Not long after Anastasia had left, Salma felt someone enter the room. She turned her head to see who it was and her face immediately fell.
The visitor was none other than Tavon.
He walked in, a bouquet of flowers and some expensive gifts in hand, with a smile on his face, âSalma, I heard you hurt your leg and came to see how youâre doing. Are you feeling better?â.
Upon seeing Tavon, Salmaâs face turned cold, âDonât pretend to care, get out.â
âSalma, I genuinely care about you. These are your favorite flowers.â Tavon said shamelessly and sat down. He suddenly started
