Chapter 57
Anastasio was seriously struggling to recall what sheâd done.
With a determined stride, Cason entered the police station. He was both the victim and the informant, so he got in without a hitch
On the other hand, Anastasia was barred outside, being told that Herman couldnât be bailed out.
Looking at the police stationâs entrance, a sense of helplessness washed over her
She was just a small fry with no clout. If trouble came knocking, she was utterly defenseless.
She had no money, no power. Like Cason said, even if a lawsuit, she may not be able to afford it.
Then Anastasia thought of Katelyn Katelyn could afford a house in Harmony Meadows and was a distant relative of Hermanâs. Maybe she could help Herman out
With that in mind, Anastasia immediately headed back to Harmony Meadows to find Katelyn.
Just after she left, several luxury cars drove in from the opposite direction, neatly parking in front of the police station.
The man stepping out of the car was none other than Flynn.
Upon hearing that Herman had been taken away by the police, he rushed over with his crew.
Itâs a joke that the CEO of Elysian Technologies was taken to the police station for assaulting someone. Flynn, escorted by a dozen bodyguards and lawyers, marched right into the police station
The sight was so intimidating that even the cops were taken aback.
Cason, done with his statement, emerged from the interrogation room. Seeing the scene in the lobby, he had a bad feeling.
Flynn noticed Cason, and gave him a side glance. Casonâs heart started racing
Then a cop told Cason, âYouâre free to goâ
âAlright then.â Cason adjusted his glasses, took one last look at Flynn and his crew, then turned and left. He didnât even dare to ask who these people were or what they were here for.
Cason left the police station with a smug look on his face. He was dead set on getting Herman behind bars, make Anastasia regret it, and have her begging him again.
While Flynn rushed to the police station, Anastasia was desperately looking for help. Meanwhile, Herman, the person accused of assault, was having coffee with the police chief in the police office. The chief, hearing that the head honcho of the Salstrom family had been brought to his precinct, rushed over right away.
After learning about the situation, the chief immediately apologized to Herman, saying, âMr. Salstrom, this is a misunderstanding. My men didnât get the full picture. Iâll make sure they reflect on this â
âThey were just doing their job impartially.â Herman replied calmly, âChief, Iâm sorry to bother you so late.â
âNo worries, no worries.â The chief hurriedly responded.
Then a cop came in and said, Iâve let Cason go.â
The chief turned to Herman, waiting for his instructions.
âItâs getting late. Thanks for the coffee, Chief.â Herman got up, with no intention of using his power to keep Cason at the station.
He had a nastier plan in mind, to destroy what Cason cherished most. Thatâd be the best lesson.
The chief also stood up and said, âMr. Salstrom, you are very kind.â
He personally walked Herman out, and when he saw Flynn, he approached and said, âBro.â
The bodyguards also chimed in, âMr. Salstrom.â
Seeing Flynn bringing so many people, Herman frowned and said, âEverybody go home.â
With that, Herman walked ahead, followed closely by his bodyguards, creating quite a spectacle.
The chief accompanied Herman all the way to the entrance, and Herman said, âNo need to see me out, Chief.â
The chief stopped and respectfully watched Herman get into his car, wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
A subordinate nervously said. Thank God the Salstrom family didnât blame us.â
The chief said, âNext time, think before you act. Donât ask me to solve your problems every time.â
The subordinate quickly said, âYes, sir. What about this case?â
âWhat case? That Cason guy, heâs got some nerve to file a report. Just a lost tooth and heâs claiming grievous bodily harm.â The chief said. âDrop the caseâ
âAlrightâ
Herman sat in his limited edition RollsâRoyce, looking ice cold.
âBro, who brought you to the police station?â Flynn suddenly recalled seeing Cason at the station and asked, âWas that the one who just came out of the police station?â
call, âMake Kirkwood & Associates vanish from Riverdale before dawn.
