The Bound Between Us (Anastasia and Herman) novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63 

Before Anastasia had a chance to utter a word, Cason had already hung up the phone. 

He called first thing in the morning just to blow up at her? 

Anastasia frowned, puzzled as to why Cason was so angry 

It was Cason who messed up, got Herman laken away by the police, yet somehow Cason was the one who was more pissed off? 

Just as Anastasia was feeling confused, Monica called and said over the phone, “Ana, Casons law firm is being investigated, their family factory has also gone bust, owing a ton of money. Everyone is talking about it in our alumni group chat” 

“What? How did that happen?” Anastasia was taken aback. 

Overnight, it felt like her whole world had changed. 

“It’s all his own doing Monica said angrily. “Cason is a total hypocrite. Even I was almost fooled by him. Thank God you’re married now. Otherwise, I would have made a big mistake trying to set you two up. That would have been like throwing you to the wolves. Cason would do anything for money. even drive people to jump off buildings or overdose on pills. Now, all the families of his victims are protesting at his law firm.” 

Upon hearing all this, Anastasia felt a sensation that was hard to describe. 

It was a sense of relief. 

Cason, for the sake of fame and fortune, disregarded the truth and drove victims to suicide. Now this kind of person has become her enemy, and he would definitely not let it go. 

Thinking back to Casons threatening call just now, she felt a wave of panic. 

Anastasia asked, “Who revealed those things?” 

Just after she had become enemies with Cason, his dirty laundry was aired. She would definitely be targeted by him. 

What if Cason went to trouble Herman again? 

“Bad deeds will always come back to bite you. Somebody must have had enough and decided to expose him. The reason why Cason returned home is probably because he couldn’t stay abroad any longer.” Monica knew who was behind it, but she couldn’t say. 

Some things she had to keep secret for Herman’s sake. 

Considering how protective Herman was of Anastasia, she didn’t have to worry. She just needed to prevent Anastasia’s secret from being exposed and ruining Anastasia and Herman’s relationship. 

While Anastasia was still trying to get her bearings, she needed to do her best to protect that secret and help Anastasia and Herman. 

Cason got what he deserved, but Anastasia felt uneasy instead. 

After chatting with Monica for a bit, Anastasia went to check in at her new job and ran into Lauren, who she had interviewed with previously. 

Lauren, upon seeing Anastasia, was also surprised, “Anastasia, you got hired too? That’s great, we’re going to be colleagues.” 

Meeting a familiar face in a strange environment, Anastasia felt more relaxed and less constrained. 

Anastasia asked, “Have you checked in already?” 

“Yeah, I have.” Lauren was still as cheerful as ever, “It’s a shame though, you were right last time. We can’t work at the headquarters, only at this subsidiary There’s a huge hurdle between me and the person I like.” 

Anastasia laughed, “Take it slow. There’s a chance for a girl to win a guy over. You’re so beautiful, you’ll definitely get him.” 

Upon hearing this, Lauren was very happy She grabbed Anastasia’s hand and said, “Once I win over Mr. Salstrom and become the boss lady of Elysian Technologies, I’ll make sure you become the chief designer.” 

Anastasia laughed and responded, “Alright, I hold you to that” 

The two chatted happily and quickly became friends. Lauren suddenly remembered their previous interview, she said, “By the way, that Mr. Maxwell got fired. I’m not sure why I heard he was fired right after your interview. Do you know what happened?” 

“I have no idea” Anastasia didn’t know about the interviewer getting fired. 

“Oh Lauren didn’t probe further, she said, “You better go check in. Today the chief designer Selena will be here. If everything goes smoothly, we might be assigned to her ream as assistants.” 

Many people dreamed of becoming the assistant to the chief designer. That position was just a step away from becoming a designer. 

Anastasia first went to the HR department to check in. The HR staff glanced at Anastasia’s information and immediately became very respectful, quickly completing Anastasia’s onboarding process.
