Chapter 105
Cason was in a pretty bad shape, can’t leave the hospital for now.
When Monica arrived at the hospital, she coincidentally encountered a few individuals who had come
to collect debts from Cason.
Casons father’s factory had been seized, and he himself had been detained, so these individuals
frequently came to the hospital causing disturbances, demanding that Cason repay his father’s debts.
Monica stood at the ward door, heard Cason promising the debt collectors, “Chill out, folks. Whatever
my dad owes you, I’ll square it all up. Just give me a month. Once I’m back on my feet, you’ll get your
money”
The debt collectors were skeptical about Cason’s promise, all of them firing back, “Why should we trust
you, Kirkwood’s company has bitten the dust, what else can you guys bring to the table?”
Demi jumped in, “Guys, cut us some slack, I’m sure we can get the dough together.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCason gave Demi a nod, then Demi whipped out a promissory note for everyone to see.
Cason said. “If you don’t trust me, this note can serve as proof Amonth, and I’ll have all debts paid off. I
can’t run away. I’m broke now, if you push me or get me killed, you’ll get zilch. Might as well give me a
shot.”
His words were convincing. All they wanted was the cash, no one had anything to gain from Cason’s
death.
If Cason kicked the bucket, where would they collect their debts?
With Cason’s dad in the slammer, they cant exactly go to prison to demand payment.
The debt collectors thought it over for a bit, exchanged glances, then the ringleader took the
promissory note and said, “Fine, I’ll give you a month. If you don’t pay up, you can go join your dad in
jail. Let’s roll, guys.”
The ringleader waved his hand, leading the rest out.
Cason’s face was grim and he lowered his head, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, but the
smille didn’t reach his eyes and his whole person looked somber.
Monica was at the ward door, watching the debt collectors leave one by one. Just as she was about to
enter the ward, she heard Demi say, “Cason, where are you gonna get the money in a month? The
losses from your dad’s factory and from the law firm total eight million bucks. You can’t possibly repay
that.”
Demi was freaking out, but Cason seemed unfazed, snorting. “There’s someone who’d be willing to
cough up the money”
Demi asked puzzled, “Who? Who can cough up that much?”
Cason said cryptically. “Eight million bucks or reputation, which do you think weighs more for the
Salstrom family of Riverdale?”
“What? Whats the Salstrom family got to do with this?” Demi was confused.
Cason mumbled to himself, “Whether it’s eight million or ten, hed hand it over willingly, after all, who
doesn’t care about his dignity?”

“Cason, what are you talking about?” Demi was completely lost. “You’re thinking of borrowing from
Herman? No way he d lend you anything, he’s the one who put the Kirkwood family in this state.”
Cason confidently said, “He would.”
Monica was taken aback at the ward door
Did Cason really know that secret and planned to use it to blackmail Herman for money?
Considering all this, Monica couldn’t help but rush into the ward, shouting, “Cason.”
Cason and Demi were both surprised at Monica’s appearance.
Cason then scoffed, Here to gloat? Where’s that bitch Anastasia?”
“Cason, watch your mouth, who are you calling names?” Monica snapped back, ‘Anastasia’s been
nothing but good to you, you brought this on yourself.” “I almost forgot, you and Anastasia are birds of
a feather, both of you are bitches” Cason was like a rabid dog, biting at anyone he saw.
Monica lost it, “Cason, you want me to send you to the ICU? You have no right to slander Anastasia,
and you still want to get money from Herman, you’re shameless’
“That’s what they owe me Cason laughed sarcastically, “You and Anastasia are good friends, you must
know what she’s been up to. She’s been sleeping around behind my back, even got knocked up.”
