Mack said, “Even though you don’t have Felipe’s good fortune to marry the leader of Cloudshadow Sect, we’ll still arrange a suitable political match a you out of respect for your mother, so you can live the rest of your life in Forreb without worry.
He added, “Raven’s been taken to the Inspection Bureau, there’s no way she’s getting out. The lightest sentence she’ll face is life imprisonment, Don’t waste your time and energy on a woman like her.
“Besides, I heard from Tuesday that this woman was already unfaithful back in the lower realm, constantly cheating. I don’t see what’s so worth holding.
onto.”
“Shut up! You have no right to judge Raven!” Cassian clenched his fists in fury and suddenly grabbed Mack by the collar.
“What do you think you’re doing?” Startled, Mack quickly shouted toward the door, “Guards! Someone come quickly!”
Two security guards burst in and restrained Cassian from both sides.
Mack angrily smoothed out the wrinkles on his clothes, shooting Cassian a venomous glare as he shouted, “You ungrateful brat! I’m doing this for your own good. Raven is never coming back. Stop dreaming!”
Then he barked an order at the guards holding Cassian, “Lock him in the bedroom. Don’t let him out unless I say so!”
“Let go of me!” Cassian struggled with all his strength, but he was no match for the two guards. He could only watch helplessly as they dragged him into a bedroom and locked the door.
Cassian yanked hard on the doorknob, only to find it had been locked from the outside. He rushed to the window, but that too had been locked by the Cherry family.
It was clear that Mack had planned this long ago, first getting the Inspection Bureau to arrest Raven, then locking Cassian away.
Cassian cursed, “Damn it! I can’t get out now. What if Raven really is in danger?”
Cassian had always hoped that his Primary Personality would stay dormant. But this time, he was actually hoping the part of him he’d always rejected would wake up soon.
Meanwhile, Raven had already been taken to the Inspection Bureau., The bureau was similar to the police station in Vyrdenia. They were responsible for maintaining public order. Anyone who violated Forreb’s laws would be taken to the Inspection Bureau first.
After bringing Raven in, the patrol officers didn’t even take her to an interrogation room. They threw her directly into solitary confinement.
The confinement room was bare, except for a slender young man sitting cross–legged in the corner with his eyes closed.
“Behave yourself. Don’t try anything!” The patrol officer turned to leave after locking Raven inside, but she stepped forward to block his path.
Raven asked, “According to standard procedure, shouldn’t you interrogate me first and investigate whether I actually violated Forreb’s law?”
She added, “I injured someone to save someone else. According to Forreb law, that qualifies as a justifiable defense. As long as it’s investigated, I should be cleared of all charges.”
“What did you say? Investigation?” The officer laughed as if he’d heard the funniest joke, then sneered at her.
He said, “Why would we waste our time investigating a lowborn from the lower realm like you? You don’t even have Forreb citizenship. You’re not entitled to any protection under Forreb law.”
He added, “Besides, I heard you attacked personnel at the Spatial Point and illegally crossed over from the lower realm. That adds to your crimes. A criminal like you dreaming of walking out of here? Ridiculous!”
