Chapter 56


    Chapter 56


    The moment Anastasia got home, she was antsy. She asked frantically on the phone, “Monica, do you


    know anyone at the police station?”


    “Not really, Ana, don’t worry… Monica realized that Anastasia didn’t know about Herman’s situation.


    She knew that he’d been taken away by the police, which must have been making Anastasia pretty


    freaked out. “Here’s the n, Ana, head home and I’ll make a few calls to see if I know anyone at the


    station.”


    Monica was just trying to soothe Anastasia’s nerves and hoped she wouldn’t worry too much.


    “Alright, Ill be waiting for your call.”


    Anastasia hung up, full of worry, and drove off to the police station.


    Even though she might not be able to do much, she still wanted to check things out at the station.


    As soon as Anastasia arrived and got out of the car, she saw Cason stepping out of another car.


    “Cason, you’re such a jerk, she used loudly the moment she saw him. “You should drop the


    charges.”


    “Anastasia, I warned your husband. He refused to apologize. It’s a world ofw now, I’m just protecting


    my rights. It’s only fair, Cason sneered. “Everyone. has to face the consequences for their actions.”


    “How can you be so nasty?” Anastasia lost her cool. “Drop the charges and I’ll cover your losses, no


    matter the cost.”


    “Anastasia, you should know, I’m not afterpensation.” Cason smirked with his hands in his


    pockets. “You know what I really want.”


    Anastasia was shaking with rage. Was this vile, shameless man really the Cason she knew?


    With gritted teeth, Anastasia said, “You’re dreaming.”


    Cason gave a coldugh, stepping in front of Anastasia. “There’s another way to drop the charges your


    husband could kneel down and apologize, admit his mistake”


    “Cason, you jerk, Anastasia pped Cason hard across his face in anger.


    Cason was instantly furious. He licked his pped cheek and smirked, “Looks like I need another


    hospital visit. I’ll put this p on your husband’s tab. He should be doing time for a year or more, no


    problem.”


    Hearing that Herman might be jailed, Anastasia panicked. As much as she hated Cason, she had to


    keep her temper in check.


    “How much do you want to drop the charges?” Anastasia tried to control her anger. “Cason, don’t think


    you’re above us just because you’ve read a feww books. If you don’t drop the charges, I’ll hire a


    betterwyer and fight you to the end.”


    She wouldn’t cave to Cason’s demands..


    Cason scoffed, “Anastasia, do you really have the money and time to fight me? All I need to do is drag


    this out and your husband would be in jail for a few more years. For every day the case isn’t closed, he


    stays another day. I’ve got all the time in the world to drag this out. This is what you get for deceiving


    me.”


    Cason’s level of nastiness shattered Anastasia’s perception of him.


    To protect Herman, Anastasia struggled to control herself. She exined, “I never lied to you. I never


    dated two people at the same time. You left first, Cason. Why take your anger out on an innocent


    person? Why drag Herman into our problems? If you have any grudges,e after me. Leave him out


    of


    this.”


    Cason looked at Anastasia coldly, the more she defended Herman, the angrier he got.


    “Anastasia, you’re really shameless, still denying your wrongs. Do you want me to spill what you did


    back in college?” Cason mocked “Don’t y innocent in front of me You’re a slut.”

    Anastasia was truly puzzled. What had she done in college that made Cason so angry?


    Had she really forgotten something important?
