Chapter 66
Tm halfway throughâ
The private detective mumbled on the phone.
Cason, perplexed, said, âWhy donât you just come to the hospital? Bring everything youâve dug up.â
Phone call explanations wouldnât cut it. Cason needed to see this guy faceâtoâface
Around half an hour later, a guy in a baseball cap and carrying a briefcase showed up. Casonâs mom and Demi were shooed out.
The hospital room was left with just Cason and the private detective.
Cason asked, âWhereâs the info you found?â
The detective pulled out a stack of documents from his hag and said, âEverything I found is here. I had to work my way through this. Take a look. This Anastasia chick had a kid and suffered from depression for a whileâ
At this, Cason snatched the documents, his eyes scanning over the details about the hospital where Anastasia had her baby and the doctor who treated her depression
âWhat a nasty woman.â Cason was fuming Judging by the dates, Anastasia had been messing around with another man and even had his kid right when he went abroad.
He dated Anastasia for a year, and all they did was hold hands. Not even a kiss. He hinted at spending the night together more than once, but she always declined, saying she wanted to wait till their wedding night.
Cason couldnât help but curse, âPlaying the innocent in front of me, then sleeping with another man behind my back. What a piece of work.â
At this moment, Casonâs true nature was laid bare. There was no need for him to keep up his cultured act any longer.
According to the documents, Anastasia had a child when she was twenty and then suffered from depression for about a year.
Anastasia also dropped out of school when she got pregnant.
âWhat about the kid? And the manâs info? Why isnât there anything?â
The detective said, âThatâs all I could find.â
Cason gripped the documents tightly, his eyes cold, âThis is enough.â
Enough to ruin Anastasia.
With that, Cason let out a chilling laugh, âI canât wait to see Hermanâs face when he finds out he married such a nasty woman. His wife has a child, and sheâs a woman of loose morals. Sheâll be a stain on his life.â
How could a woman like that marry into the Salstrom family?
If Anastasia was ruthless, he wouldnât hold back either.
Cason was sure Herman didnât know about Anastasiaâs past. This was his trump card.
With this in mind, Cason wasnât afraid of Herman anymore. High society values reputation. Once Anastasiaâs scandal was exposed, Herman would be
humiliated
Cason thought about Anastasiaâs ruthlessness in cutting ties with him. He now understood why. She had hooked up with a powerful man from the Salstrom family and was eager to become a part of it.
Anastasia had no idea how Cason would retaliate.
She and Lauren reported to their chief designer, Selena. Meeting her idol, Anastasia was a bit excited..
Selena wasnât pleased that the company arranged for a fresh high school graduate like Anastasia to be her assistant.
However, as an experienced professional, Selena didnât show her displeasure. She just assigned Anastasia some basic tasks.
Selena was confident Anastasia wouldnât pass the threeâmonth probation, so she didnât waste any energy on her.
On her first day at her new company, Anastasia did basic work, like running errands, and she didnât see anything wrong with it. In any company, newcomers always have to take a hit. Who in the design department hadnât started as a newbie?
Anastasia remembered her motherâs words, âWhat doesnât kill you makes you stronger. She had a low education level, was new, and had no connections. She needed to be humble and learn.
Lauren knew a lot about Interpersonal communication. She brought gifts for Selena, bought Starbucks coffee for her colleagues, and immediately won their favor Compared to Anastasia, Lauren was treated much better. She didnât have to do basic tasks and could chat about luxury brands at her own
desk.
Lauren was competent and had a good track record overseas. She didnât intend to compete with these seasoned employees. Her goal was to become the lady boss of Elysian Technologies, so getting along with her colleagues was a must.
But Anastasia was different. Her pretty face and curvy body were enough to stir any womanâs jealousy
So, anyone who needed a small favor would go to Anastasia.
For example: âAnastasia, could you get me a glass of water?â
âThe new girl, sweep this up.â
âThe inkâs out, girl, go downstairs and buy some.â
Anastasia, print this out and put it on my desk.â
So, Anastasia was kept on her toes.
