A Fallen Heir’s Redemption By ( Lucian and Freya )
Chapter 77

Chapter 77 He’s the Infernal War Go d

There was a deafening silence as everyone was completely shocked by this sudden turn of events.

Jared had a look of utter disbelief in his eyes as he did not expect that Gary would hit him.

“Uncle Gary, aren’t you and my

father…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Jared received another slap to his face yet again.

“What nonsense are you going to say this time?”

Gary’s eyes blazed with fury as he raged, “Your father and I are mere acquaintances. I barely even know you! However, you clearly crossed the line when you tried to pick a fight with Mr. Lucian. You should get down on your knees and beg for his forgiveness right now!”

Gary’s men could hardly believe their ears. Most of them were aware that Gary shared a close relationship with the members of the Lisbon family. However, Gary was acting as if he was a completely different man. Not only did he hit Jared, but he was also asking him to apologize to Lucian.

While most of them were still feeling extremely confused, Fred quietly went up to Gary and said, “Gary, you know that Mr. Jared’s father is…”

Gary shot Fred a glare and started slapping the man on his shoulder and back. “Do you think I need you to tell me what to do?! By the way, was it you who decided to bring Mr. Lucian in? You even threatened to throw him into jail, didn’t you? You need to offer Mr. Lucian an apology too right away!”

Amidst the commotion, Lucian kept silent as he watched Gary try his best to salvage the situation.

Gary noticed Lucian’s gaze and shuddered a little. He hurried toward Lucian and bowed deeply. “Mr. Lucian, we’ve made a mistake. You didn’t inflict any harm on Jared Lisbon. We must have apprehended the wrong person. I hope you’ll be able to forgive us for this careless mistake.”

You be able t

I know I probably sound like a madman. However, this is the only way for us to try to mend our mistakes.I’m facing the strongest man in Vandergrift, the Infernal War Go d! He could easily have me executed at any moment he wants!

There were various sounds of gasps as the others witnessed Gary apologizing to Lucian right before their eyes.

“What are you two waiting for? Won’t you apologize to Mr. Lucian already?”

There was a dark light in Gary’s eyes as he cast a look in Jared and Fred’s direction.

Both men felt overwhelming proscuro from Cary. They hurriedly bowed to Lucian and muttered

in an apologetic voice, “We’re very sorry, Mr. Lucian. We were wrong!”

Despite their reluctance, Jared and Fred were forced to offer an apology in the end.

Lucian’s gaze fell on the divorce papers sca ttered on the floor. He looked toward Jared. “Jared, I want to know the truth about the divorce papers. Did someone force Freya to sign the papers?”

“Um. About that…” Jared spoke hesitantly as he pondered whether he should come clean.

Gary slapped Jared on his bruised, swollen cheek. He yelled furiously, “Hurry up and answer Mr. Lucian!”

“The Harrison family did it as a favor to our family! They made Freya sign the papers so that I could get my revenge on you!”

“I know that I’m in the wrong now! Please don’t hit me anymore!” Jared grumbled woefully.

I knew Freya wouldn’t choose to divorce me. She must have been forced to sign the papers.

Lucian said in an unfeeling voice, “Jared, I’ll give you thirty minutes. You and your father should visit the Harrison family’s residence to offer an apology in person and destroy the divorce papers. Remember. You only have thirty minutes to get it done. Otherwise, I’ll make sure that no one will mention the Lisbon family’s name ever again in Sioux after today.”

Then, Lucian walked out of the interrogation room in big strides.

After Lucian had left the room, Gary finally felt like he could breathe again. He directed his gaze at Jared. “Jared, you should go home now and bring your father to the Harrison family’s residence. You need to destroy the divorce papers and apologize to them as soon as possible. Your family might be in deep trouble even if you were to be late for a minute.”

“Uncle Gary, why are you acting like this? Did you just learn something more about Lucian?” Jared asked curiously.

“That’s not something you should be getting curious about!”

Gary took out his phone and dialed Mathia s’s number. “Mathias, you need to go to the Harrison family’s residence with Jared and apologize to Freya Harrison within the next thirty minutes. Remember that you must do it within that time. Otherwise, you and your family might be in grave peril!”

“Huh?” Mathias was slightly taken aback by Gary’s words. “Gary, what’s going on?”.

“Just do as I say if you don’t want to die! Hurry up and apologize to Freya!” Gary raged.

Gary hung up and stormed out of the interrogation room the next instant. However, he saw Marshall walking down the corridor toward him with a stony expression on his face. He froze on

the spot as he noticed several men in military uniform following behind Marshall.

“Gary Lynch, as the deputy chief of the police department, you conspired with wealthy, influential families and abused your authority. Not only have you received as much as 300 million dollars in bribes, but you’ve also harassed our citizens! You’re now under arrest! We’re here to bring you in for further investigation!” Liam stopped before Gary and announced in a steely voice.

Gary’s face was as white as a sheet. He dropped to the floor as he felt his limbs go limp. He prostrated himself on the floor and pleaded, “No! Please don’t do this to me! I know that I’ve done wrong now!”

Marshall wanted to help Gary out if it were possible. However, even his hands were tied this time.

The person he’s crossed this time is the Infernal War Go d. I wouldn’t dare meddle in that man’s business given his status in our country.

As those men seized Gary and escorted him out of the building, Jared and the others heard and saw everything since it happened right outside the interrogation room.

Jared was frightfully alarmed by how things had turned out. He quickly phoned Mathias. “Dad, Uncle Gary was arrested just now! We should go and apologize to Freya right away.”

Mathias was completely thrown off balance by the news. Although he knew Gary would eventually get arrested for the things that he had done, Mathias did not expect it to happen so soon. After a moment’s consideration, Mathias replied, “Give me a minute. I’ll call Chief Kane and ask if he knows anything.”

A short while later, Mathias managed to get in touch with Marshall.

Marshall began monotonously, “I can tell you who Lucian Gray really is. However, you must keep it a secret for the rest of your life. Also, you need to promise that you’ll leave this city and never return after this.”

Mathias could feel his pulse quickening. He asked in a shaky voice, “Who exactly is he?”

“He’s the Infernal War Go d!”

Those words seemed to ring in Mathia s’s head.

At the Harrison family’s residence.

“Dax Harrison! You’re straight out shameless!”

Freya was extremely furious after she learned that Dax had secretly signed the divorce papers in

her stead.

Dax’s face darkened as he turned his eyes to Freya. “Freya, I did all that for your sake. Why should you waste your time on that useless man? Isn’t Mr. Jared a far better choice as compared to Lucian? You’ll be able to enjoy a comfortable life if you pick the former as your partner. You’ll thank me for this in the future.”

“I’m going to see Lucian.”

Freya cast an unfeeling gaze in Dax’s direction. Then, she turned around to head for the front door.

“Grandpa! That guy, Lucian, is so dead this time!”

Just then, Nadine and her two brothers came into the living room. She couldn’t hide the excitement from her face. “Lucian must be out of his mind. He claimed that he would beat Jared up right before Deputy Chief Gary’s eyes. I’m sure he’s going to be in hot water this time!”

“What?!”

Dax’s eyes rounded in amusement. “I’ve been waiting all this time for someone to get rid of Lucian. It’s finally happening soon!”

“What do you mean by that?”

Freya’s expression hardened. She asked, “You signed my divorce papers against my wishes. You’re doing all these things to separate me and Lucian. What is it that you want from us?”

“What do I want? I want that project you’re working on, of course!”

After Dax had said that, the other members of the Harrison family gave snorts of derisive laughter as they looked at Freya.

Dax continued, “We’ve been planning to get the two of you divorced all this time. Lucian has ruined too many of our plans, and I’ve been meaning to get rid of him! Now that he’s gotten on Deputy Chief Gary’s wrong side, Lucian will definitely be in big trouble. No one would be able to help you now. Hahaha! From now on, I’ll be taking over the project instead!”

Freya’s eyes burned with rage. She shouted at Dax, “Dream on! I won’t let you take over the project no matter what!”

Nadine stormed toward Freya and gave the latter a slap across the face. “You vile wench! How dare
