However, Annic lost her smile after they were in the villa. So did Freya. They looked at Lucian sternly, like he was a criminal. Meanwhile, Frank stood by the window, admiring his new Maybach. He was still excited that he now owned such a luxury car.
“Mom, Fay. Why are you looking at me like this?” Lucian smiled awkwardly.
“Stop calling me that! I’m not your mom, even though you and Fay had registered your marriage. Tell me the truth, where did you get the Maybach?” Annie frowned.
Freya was worrying about the same thing. “How did you get the Maybach so easily? Who exactly are you?” she asked.
“It’s not as easy as you think. I used my connection in the military to book it and Jeff’s money to pay for it. He gave me some money after I retired from the military because I had saved his life before. Here’s the bank card he gave me.” Lucian put a card on the coffee table.
“How much did he give you?” asked Annie.
“I don’t know. Anyway, I could pay for the Maybach with this card. I supposed there wasn’t much left in the account now.” Lucian did not tell the whole truth because he worried they would take him differently.
Freya sighed. “Lucian, please do not waste your money like this anymore. It is too over the top for a family like ours to stay in a villa and drive a Maybach. I just want a simple life,” said Freya.
“I understand, but we should keep the car because Dad really likes it,” said Lucian.
“Yes, I like it very much!” Frank nodded his head excitedly. He finally had his dream fulfilled.
Annie looked at the car outside of the villa. She had mixed feelings. On one hand, she hated Lucian for causing her daughter’s condition; on the other hand, she admitted that their lifestyle had significantly improved after Lucian returned.
“Frank, stop staring at the car. Let’s go to the market and get some steaks,” said Annie.
“Mom, it’s fine. I would eat anything you make. Don’t trouble yourself for me,” Lucian

knew Annie wanted to get the steaks because of his request.
“Stop it. I’m only cooking steak because I also want to have it,” said Annic in an unfriendly tone.
Frank decided to leave the Maybach at home and walked to the nearby market instead because the road was crowded. Meanwhile, Lucian stayed at home with Freya.
Freya was thinking about the Monsalt City Village project endorsed by the Sioux government. The demolishing would be done in a week if everything was running smoothly. Then, they would need to start the subsequent process soon because the expected completion duration was two years. Freya knew they had to find investors as quickly as possible.
Lucian did not want to disturb Freya when she was worrying about work. Minnie was going to come back from school soon. Therefore, Lucian went to the kitchen to prepare food for Annie to cook later.
Freya’s phone rang. It was a call from the school. Lucian helped Freya to answer the phone.
“Ms. Harrison, please come to the school immediately. Minnie got into a fight and injured three of her classmates. The parents demanded to see you at school,” said the teacher. Lucian and Freya immediately went to school with Maybach. They did not have time to inform Annie and Frank about it.
Lucian and Freya saw Minnie when they arrived at the teacher’s office. Minnie’s face was covered in wounds, and her nose was stuffed with blood-stained tissue paper. Her school uniform was torn, and her hair was a mess.
Most kids in the same situation would have cried when they saw their parents. However, Minnie was tough. “Mom, don’t worry about me. I’m fine,” she said to Freya.
“Why did you fight with your classmates?” Freya could not stop her tears, seeing her daughter wounded. Freya was a tough woman; her only weakness was her daughter.
“They called me a ba stard and said you are a cri pple, so I beat them,” said Minnie, without looking at Lucian.
Lucian was trembling in anger. He immediately pushed Freya’s wheelchair into the office. Lucian became even angrier when he saw the three boys who got into the fight

with Minnie were drinking milk on the couch, with minor scratches on their faces. They were pampered by their mothers while Minnie stood outside of the office alone.
“Ms. Sarah, are these the classmates injured by my daughter?” asked Lucian with an unsatisfied tone. Freya stared at the teacher angrily too. She thought it was unfair to put all the blame on Minnie when she was the one who was got beaten worst.
Sarah Kennedy, Minnie’s homeroom teacher, was in her early twenties. She looked at the cheap clothes on Lucian, and made a men tal comparison with the expensive clothes on other parents. “How did you teach your daughter? Look at her. She’s like a wild girl in the jungle! She even fights with other boys. How embarrassing!” said Sarah in disdain.
All the other three parents also looked at Lucian angrily. All of them were from affluent families. They were angry that their precious sons were beaten by a ba stard., They would not let Minnie go so easily.
“What did you say?” Lucian was furious. He pulled Minnie closer to him. “Ms. Sarah, my daughter was standing outside in the cold and covered in wounds while the rest were drinking their milk comfortably in the office. How fair is that?”
One of the parents, Mabel Yeatman, also the Finnigan Group’s daughter-in-law, stood up. “How dare a lowly ba stard beat my precious boy? Minnie deserves a punishment. I also demand an explanation from you two as Minnie’s parents.”
