Chapter 176

Monica mumbled, “I’m not too sure about the details myself, but word around is, he got nabbed for extortion.”

“Extortion?” Anastasia was taken aback. “Who did he extort? He’s a lawyer, isn’t he supposed to uphold the law?”

“Ana, I really dont know. That’s just what I heard.” Monica continued, “I was gobsmacked when I first heard it. How could he do such a thing? And with him being arrested and Demi seemingly jetting off abroad, it’s all happened so suddenly.”

“Definitely sudden.”

Anastasia didn’t pry further. She couldn’t visit Cason in jail. They were no longer involved. If she visited him, she’d just be asking for trouble.

But something didn’t sit right with her. She remembered the last time Monica hurriedly sought out her mother, saying that Cason knew her secret. She had planned to confront Cason at some point, but now he was locked up.
