A Fallen Heir’s Redemption By ( Lucian and Freya ) -
Chapter 73
Chapter 73 Jared’s Revenge
“…” Freya didn’t respond to him and just continued driving.
“Oh right, I’m missing some details. You women love the juicy bits, after all. I’ll explain it to you in depth then.”
Lucian could tell that Freya was displeased. Assuming that it was because he wasn’t elaborate enough, he continued, “That was a massive operation. There were fifty thousand of us, and at the time I was still a normal soldier. However, I stepped up at a critical moment, not only saving the old chief, but also winning barely against a massive thirty-thousand mercenary army all on my own. Well, these were all in the past now and it didn’t make much sense to talk about them…”
“Stop talking,” Freya cut him off. She furiously asked, “When did you become so vain?”
“Huh?” Lucian was completely taken by surprise and froze.
Freya could tell she was being a little too emotional. She calmed herself down and said, “Lucian,, we’re just normal people. You don’t have to keep up appearances. I know you used to be the prized son of the Gray family, and this might all seem very new to you, but you can’t just keep calling yourself the Infernal War G od. That’s why people always laugh at you. Can’t you just be normal? I’ve already taken over the demolition project. Soon, we’ll have money. From now on, let’s just work hard together and give Minnie a good life, okay?”
She still doesn’t trust me…
Lucian didn’t know what happened. However, he simply nodded his head and kept quiet.
Seeing how Lucian was silent, Freya also went back to just quietly driving. The two of them soon got back to Sioux.
Frank and Annie heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the two of them return to Maple Garden. They had also heard about the Gray Group offending the Infernal War G od, resulting in the failure of their public listing, as well as the Big Five declaring bankruptcy.
“Lucian, now that the Gray Group has failed to be publicly listed, you should be satisfied, right?”
Annie glared at Lucian and continued, “Can you please just live peacefully from now on?”
“Yes, yes I will,” Lucian said. However, he had already made his own plans which he was keeping secret from everyone.
Just as they were all about to sit down and have a drink of water, a group of uniformed police officers stormed the villa, scaring everyone.
“Lucian Gray, you are under arrest for illegal tres passing and first degree assault. Come with us now,” the officer in charge walked up to Lucian and said.

“Officer, what seems to be the problem?”
Frank and Annie were shocked to see so many cops and immediately went up to them to ask what was happening.
“Why don’t you ask this ba stard Lucian?” the officer in charge said in an unfeeling tone.
Meanwhile, Freya was sure that this was because Lucian had beat up Jared, prompting the latter to make a police report right after the two of them left. She immediately stood up and said, “Officer, Jared is the one who assaulted me first. That’s why Lucian was acting on my behalf. This is all a misunderstanding…”
“What do I care if it’s a misunderstanding?”
The officer barked, “It’s an undeniable fact that Lucian had assaulted someone. We’re just here to take him in. If you have anything to say, tell that to the victim. Poor thing, even his nose was broken. What a ruthless ba stard you are.”

Two other officers immediately came forward and tried to take Lucian away.
The police had come too quickly!

Even a fool could tell that this was all orchestrated by the Lisbon family, let alone someone like Lucian.

He stood up and stared back at the cops, asking, “Are you sure you don’t need to investigate this
properly before arresting me?”

The cops were displeased by Lucian’s tone. One of them said, “Why would we need to do any investigation to take you in?”

“Let me tell you. Even if you didn’t assault anyone, I can still easily have you arrested for offending Mr. Jared. How dare the mere son-in-law of a lowly family act so haughtily in front of Mr. Jared. Don’t you know that Mr. Mathias has a good relationship with the deputy chief…”

The officer quickly realized he had misspoke and quickly shut his mouth.
However, Lucian heard it all. With a slight grin, he asked, “Alright then. I’ll go with you, but can I go upstairs to make a phone call?”
“Oh, trying to get someone to bail you out?”
“Fine, go right ahead. I’ll give you the chance to struggle, but I’m warning you. Don’t overstep your boundaries. No matter what strings you pull, it’s all pointless in front of the Lisbon family. You get it?” the officer mocked.
Lucian went upstairs and called Liam, saying, “I want you to call the police chief shortly. Tell him
2/5
that Jared Lisbon is in cahoots with the deputy chief and that they arrested the Infernal War Go d! I just want to see how strong the Lisbon family connections are!”
After coming down from the second floor, Lucian left with the police.
“Sweetheart, what happened?”
Given the circumstances, it was evident that Frank and Annie would start to panic and ask questions.
Freya explained what had happened while her and Lucian were in Qruusford. When they heard the story, Frank and Annie had worried looks on their faces. Given the Lisbon family’s influence, it would be easy to send Lucian to prison.
“What now? What do we do now?” Annie said anxiously. She was extremely worried about Lucian. After all, she was still a lady.
“We have to replace a way to save Lucian. He only hit someone for our daughter’s sake.”
Frank was a man of honor and didn’t give up on Lucian just because he had offended the Lisbon family.
“Should we ask Mom and Dad for help?”
Annie was out of options and suggested that they ask the Harrison family for help.
The three of them didn’t have a powerful background. The only thing they could think of that could help was the Harrison family.
“We don’t have a choice,” Freya nodded with a sense of determination in her eyes. She knew that things would likely go poorly for them if they were to ask the Harrison family for help at a time like this. However, Lucian was about to go to prison because of her. She needed to try and save him.
Meanwhile, in the Lisbon family villa.
When the Lisbon family found out that Jared was beaten up because of Freya, they were completely furious. Mathias, the head of the family, immediately called his close friend, deputy chief Gary Lynch. In turn, he quickly ordered his subordinates to go and apprehend Lucian. Given the close relationship between Mathias and Gary, they could easily make up a crime and send Lucian to jail.
“Dad, get that bit ch Freya to divorce Lucian. You have to make the two of them end their
3/5
marriage.”
Jared was wrapped in bandages like a mummy, with only his lips and eyes visible. It was a funny sight.
“My boy, even if Freya agrees, she would be a divorcee. Not to mention, she already has a daughter. A woman like that is beneath you,” Mathias helplessly explained to Jared.
“Dad, I’m not going to marry that bit ch. I just want to mess with Lucian.”
He continued with a cold tone, “Not only do I want to send Lucian to prison, I want him to see Freya’s signed divorce papers while he’s inside. I’m sure that’ll make him especially miserable. That exiled ba stard from the Gray family. How dare he hit me. I want him to lose everything.”
“Good idea,” Mathias gently nodded while giving Jared the thumbs up. Afterwards, he called Dax on his phone, “Dax, I have something I want you to know. Immediately get Freya to go to the police station and tell Lucian she’ll be divorcing him. Else, I will ruin the Harrison family for good.”
Mathias immediately hung up after giving his ultimatum.

He flashed a cold smile and said, “Don’t worry, son. I’ve already ordered the Harrison family to force Freya to break up her marriage with Lucian. If they don’t sign the divorce papers, we will use the Lisbon family’s influence to destroy the Harrison family. That would be child’s play.”

When Dax received the phone call, he broke out in cold sweat and was almost scared to death.
To the Lisbon family that’s practically half a first-tier family, the Harrison family was nothing more than an ant that could be easily squashed.
“Grandpa, I beg you. Please think of a way to save Lucian. I will work hard on the project from now on and make money for the Harrison family, okay?” Freya stood before Dax and pleaded.
Behind her, Annie and Frank were also begging Dax for help. They didn’t wish to see anything bad happen to Lucian.
The rest of the Harrison family were sitting at the side, watching on as if it were some circus show.
Lucian just didn’t know when to quit!
He had just offended the Gray family and the Big Five, and now he even beat up the oldest son of the Lisbon family. Would he only be satisfied once he’s dead?
This time, Lucian was sure to go to jail and die a brutal death.

Wouldn’t this be a dream come true for them?
With Lucian in prison, there would be no one to stop them from controlling Freya. Not to mention, the Gray family would not seek revenge on them for being associated with Lucian.
“I can think of a way to help Lucian.”
Dax suddenly thought of an idea and said, “As long as you divorce Lucian, I will help you ask the Lisbon family to spare him.”
Dax was a cun ning old fox. He knew that if he were to blindly force Freya to break off her marriage to Lucian, she would never ab ide, given her stubbornness. This was the only way for the Harrison family to have a chance to survive. After all, the Lisbon family had just given the ultimatum for them to force Freya and Lucian to get divorced.
This was the only way for now.
Once Freya and Lucian were divorced, the Harrison family would not have offended the Lisbon family. Moreover, Lucian would continue to rot in prison. This was a win-win situation.
“What? Divorce?!”
Freya’s expression quickly changed as she shook her head, “Grandpa, I will not be divorcing Lucian.”
