Chapter 66

    Tm halfway through"


    The private detective mumbled on the phone.


    Cason, perplexed, said, "Why don''t you juste to the hospital? Bring everything you''ve dug up."


    Phone call exnations wouldn''t cut it. Cason needed to see this guy face-to-face


    Around half an hourter, a guy in a baseball cap and carrying a briefcase showed up. Cason''s mom and Demi were shooed out.


    The hospital room was left with just Cason and the private detective.


    Cason asked, "Where''s the info you found?"


    The detective pulled out a stack of documents from his hag and said, "Everything 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 while"


    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


    "What a nasty woman." 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 couldn''t help but curse, ''ying the innocent in front of me, then sleeping with another man behind my back. What a piece of work."


    At this moment, Cason''s true nature wasid bare. There was no need for him to keep up his cultured act any longer.


    ording 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.


    "What about the kid? And the man''s info? Why isn''t there anything?"


    The detective said, "That''s all I could find."


    Cason gripped the documents tightly, his eyes cold, "This is enough."


    Enough to ruin Anastasia.


    With that, Cason let out a chillingugh, "I can''t wait to see Herman''s face when he finds out he married such a nasty woman. His wife has a child, and she''s a woman of loose morals. She''ll be a stain on his life." How could a woman like that marry into the Salstrom family?


    If Anastasia was ruthless, he wouldn''t hold back either.


    Cason was sure Herman didn''t know about Anastasia''s past. This was his trump card.


    With this in mind, Cason wasn''t afraid of Herman anymore. High society values reputation. Once Anastasia''s scandal was exposed, Herman would be


    humiliated


    Cason thought about Anastasia''s 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 be 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 wasn''t pleased that thepany arranged for a fresh high school graduate like Anastasia to be her assistant.


    However, as an experienced professional, Selena didn''t show her displeasure. She just assigned Anastasia some basic tasks.


    Selena was confident Anastasia wouldn''t pass the three-month probation, so she didn''t waste any energy on her.


    On her first day at her newpany, Anastasia did basic work, like running errands, and she didn''t see anything wrong with it. In anypany, neers always have to take a hit. Who in the design department hadn''t started as a newbie? Anastasia remembered her mother''s words, "What doesn''t 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 Interpersonalmunication. 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 didn''t have to do basic tasks and could chat about luxury brands at her own


    desk.


    Lauren waspetent and had a good track record overseas. She didn''t intend topete with these seasoned employees. Her goal was to be thedy 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 woman''s jealousy


    So, anyone who needed a small favor would go to Anastasia.


    For example: "Anastasia, could you get me a ss of water?"


    "The new girl, sweep this up."


    "The ink''s out, girl, go downstairs and buy some."


    Anastasia, print this out and put it on my desk."


    So, Anastasia was kept on her toes.
