Chapter 327
Here we go again.
Anastasia had heard this so many times that these words were losing their touch. She leaned casually against her desk, glaring at Julie. “Can’t you come up with something new? Have you been reading too many romance s? Do you always have to play the wicked home-wrecker? If Herman was interested in you, it wouldn’t be my business. But he and I are married now, happy as ever. You’re a wealthy heiress, can’t you maintain a bit of dignity?”
Anastasia couldn’t understand why Julie was so fixated on Herman. There were plenty of fish in the sea, but she insisted on going after a married man. This seemed utterly foolish to
Anastasia.
“Who are you calling undignified?” Julie snapped, her voice rising. “Do you think I’m deliberately trying to create a rift between you two by lying? Ask Herman if he had a history with a woman five years ago.”
“So what if he did?” Anastasia sneered. “He’s the CEO of Elysian Technologies. And he is a handsome, wealthy man. I doubt there are many women who wouldn’t be interested in him. It’s not unusual for him to have a past.”

“I don’t require Ms. Brown to worry about my marital affairs,” Anastasia said lightly. “I suggest you find a man and start dating to take care of your hormonal imbalance Running around causing trouble isn’t becoming of a high-born lady like you.”
After receiving a completely different reaction from Anastasia than she had anticipated, Julie was exasperated and frustrated. Her ploy to impersonate the woman from Herman’s past had failed, and Herman had already warned the Brown family about it.
Julie said defiantly. “Let’s see how far you can go with Herman, Anastasia. Men’s love and excitement have an expiration date, and aside from your beauty, what do you have left? He’ll eventually kick you out.”
“Even if that happens, I wouldn’t be at a loss. At least I was once Herman’s wife, and he was a man I, Anastasia, once had. Unlike some people, who only have their fantasies.”
Anastasia’s sarcastic words were infuriatingly effective. Julie felt her face turning red with anger. With a furious glare at Anastasia, she stormed out.
On her way out, Julie kicked a pebble in frustration, injuring her foot in the process, which only added fuel to her rage. Suddenly, a voice sounded from the side. “Sulking here won’t do you any good. It won’t affect Anastasia and Herman in the slightest.”
Julie turned around to see a handsome man standing behind her.
“Who are you?” she asked, wary but unable to resist admiring his good looks.
Aside from Herman, this man was the most handsome she had ever seen.
The man handed her a business card with a mischievous smile. “My name is Joseph Salstrom, owner of a private investigation agency. I think I could be of help to you.”
“You’re a Salstrom?” Julie felt a pang of affection hearing the familiar surname.

She glanced at the business card and asked, “You’re a private investigator?”
“Yes.” Joseph’s smile was warm, yet it sent chills down her spine. “I can help you get what you want.”
Her face lit up upon hearing this. “Really? I want to marry Herman. Can you make it happen? You just mentioned Herman and Anastasia’s names; do you know them too?”
“Yes.” Joseph was still smiling. “But they don’t know me. I knew about your situation because you’re my target client. You need help, and I can offer it.”
Seeing hope, Julie was ecstatic. “Great! Help me break Herman and Anastasia apart. I want to marry Herman. I’ll pay you whatever you want.”
“Deal. But you must keep my existence a secret,” Joseph said, still smiling. “If you need anything, just call the number on the card.”
“Sure.” Julie believed it to be true.
Joseph chuckled and left, getting into a black sedan parked nearby. Inside the car, a man asked, “Boss, are you really going to help that silly woman? Why go the long way around when you could just seize Elysian Technologies?”
Joseph lit a cigarette, with a wicked smile on his face. “The more foolish a woman is, the easier she is to control. Herman dotes on that woman called Anastasia to the bone. I really want to see what Herman’s suffering looks like.”
