Chapter 73
Cason was clutching his phone, his eyes full of rage
His bright future had been runed by Anastasia and Herman He swore he wouldn’t let them off easy
Demi, who came to deliver food, felt a chill run down her spine when she saw Cason’s gloomy face
Ever since the Kirkwood family drama, Cason’s mood had taken a dark turn.
Taking a deep breath, Demi entered the room. ‘Cason, you gotta eat something”
Cason put down his phone and asked, “How’s my dad doing?”
“Can’t see him right now, but I’ll find a way” Demi assured him. Im his lawyer now. I’ll do my best to get
him out on bail”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTruth was, with the Salstrom family’s influence and his father’s grave charges, getting bail was next to
impossible. But saying this was just Demi’s way of calming Casons nerves.
Cason, gripping his phone, said firmly, “I’ll make Herman fetch my dad personally
Demi didn’t argue, even though she thought it was a long shot
Anastasia and Herman arrived at the hospital Herman didn’t go in with her but made up an excuse to
wait in the car
Alessia had been working for Elysian Technologies for ten years, first at the headquarters then at a
branch Herman was worried Alessia might recognize him and blow his cover
With gifts for the baby Anastasia entered the hospital. Alessia and her newborn were in the room, while
Alessias mother-in-law, Dana, was cuddling the baby and refusing to let go
Anastasia knocked lightly on the door. Alessia turned to see her and immediately smiled. “Anastasia,
you came”
“Hey, Alessia Anastasia walked in smiling. Just got off work, bought some clothes and toys for the baby
Haw’re you doing? Feeling better?
Alessia pointed her husband Evan to the gifts and said, “A bit sore, can’t really move around much.”
Alessia had a natural birth, but she was a real scaredy cat when it came to pain. She was too afraid to
move or walk
“You’ll be up and about after a few days of rest,” Anastasia glanced at the baby who suddenly started
crying
Alessia, the new mom, panicked, “What’s wrong with the baby?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlessia’s mother-in-law Dana said. The baby’s probably hungry. You don’t have any breast milk, and
the little formula you fed isn’t enough. Formula doesnt have all the nutrients. You should start
breastfeeding as soon as possible, it’s best for the baby”
Anastasia looked at them arguing and felt a little awkward. Although it might not be appropriate, she
was relieved that she didn’t have to deal with these mother in law issues.
Alessia, noticing Anastasia, said awkwardly. “I’m sorry you had to see this.”
No worries, Alessia. I understand. You get some rest. I’ll come visit another time.”
Understanding that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Anastasia didn’t stay any longer
Upon leaving the hospital, she noticed Herman waiting for her in the parking lot.
As Anastasia walked up, she noticed Herman was on a call. From a distance, she vaguely heard
something like “Mom, we’ll be home soon.”
