It was Tammy. She was surprised and said, “You’re alive! What a relief! Freya will be so h. ppy when she finds out.”
“Yes,” Lucian replied coldly.
Lucian was still very disappointed. He had everything prepared. If Freya was here, he would reveal his identity as the War God to the public and make Freya the happiest woman in the world.
However, Freya did not appear.
Tammy could hear the disappointment in Lucian’s voice and asked, “Lucian, are you still angry at Freya?”
“I’m not angry. Since I was going to die anyway, no fool would die with me. I understand why Freya didn’t come here,”
Lucian said calmly, but there was still a hint of disappointment in his words.
“Oh no!” Tammy was anxious and said, “You’ve misunderstood. I heard that Freya went to find you, but she was captured by the people of the Harrison family and taken to their mansion. You can’t blame her.”
“Seriously?” Lucian asked.
“Why would I lie to you?”
Tammy said, “They locked Freya up and forced her to give up the Monsalt City Village project. Hurry and go look for her.”
Lucian hung up and ordered Liam, “Liam, help me investigate Mr. Tea Leaf. I want to recover every asset related to Skypride Group. I will reclaim everything that belonged to my father. Order the men from Nordfren War Zone to return.”
“Yes!” Liam saluted Lucian and said.
Meanwhile, at the Harrison family’s old residence, a loud slap could be heard.
Freya shouted and fell to the floor, holding her swollen cheek.
“Calvin! Felix! Stop!”
Frank and Annie were devastated to witness their daughter being brutally attacked. They desperately wanted to intervene and stop Calvin and Felix, but their efforts were thwarted by the Harrisons’ bodyguards.
Meanwhile, Dax, Eleanor, and Orion sat passively, sipping their tea, seemingly indifferent to Freya’s suffering It was as if she held no significance to them, despite being family.
With Lucian’s demise, Freya was left without any protection. The Harrisons, emboldened by this, felt empowered to act with impunity.
Orion, on the other hand, found himself in a state of euphoria. The centipede, which had been linked to his life, was now in Lucian’s possession. With Lucian gone, the centipede would inevitably return to him.
“Freya, this is your final opportunity, Sign the contract and hand over the City Village project, or else I will torture you to death!” Calvin bellowed, forcefully gripping Freya’s collar
“Do you honestly think I would surrender the project to you? Dream on!”
Freya locked eyes with Calvin, her bloodshot gaze filled with determination. “I would sooner give it to a dog than to any of you!”
“How dare you! Keep striking her!” Dax seethed with anger, shouting his command.
Calvin proceeded to slap Freya six times, causing her face to swell and blood to trickle from his mouth.
“Freyal”
Annie’s cheeks were stained with tears as she watched her daughter endure the assault. With deep regret, she confessed, “I’m sorry. I should never have placed my trust in them. I can’t believe the depths of their depravity.”
Frank and Annie were consumed by guilt.
They had placed their faith in the Harrisons, believing they could prevent Freya from walking into danger. Little did they anticipate that the Harrisons would resort to kidnapping and coercion to force Freya to relinquish the Monsalt City Village project.
“Freya, this is your last chance. Will you hand over the project to the Harrison family?” Calvin menacingly brandished a knife from his pocket, pressing it against Freya’s neck. His face contorted with ferocity as he threatened, “If you refuse, I will kill you now and reunite you with Lucian!”
