The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57 

Anastasio was seriously struggling to recall what she’d 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 couldn’t be bailed out

Looking at the police station’s 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 Herman’s. 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

It’s 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. Cason’s heart started racing 

Then a cop told Cason, You’re free to go” 

Alright then.Cason adjusted his glasses, took one last look at Flynn and his crew, then turned and left. He didn’t 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, “Mr. Salstrom, this is a misunderstanding. My men didn’t get the full picture. I’ll make sure they reflect on this ” 

They were just doing their job impartially.Herman replied calmly, Chief, I’m sorry to bother you so late.” 

No worries, no worries.The chief hurriedly responded

Then a cop came in and said, I’ve let Cason go.” 

The chief turned to Herman, waiting for his instructions

It’s getting late. Thanks for the coffee, Chief.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. That’d be the best lesson

The chief also stood up and said, Mr. Salstrom, you are very kind.” 

He personally walked Herman out, and when he saw Flynn, he approached and said, Bro.” 

The bodyguards also chimed in, Mr. Salstrom.” 

Seeing Flynn bringing so many people, Herman frowned and said, “Everybody go home.” 

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, “No need to see me out, Chief.”
