Chapter 1330 Retribution

Freya stopped them again. "It's not necessary. I'll do it." As she said this, she took out the silver needles and was about to step forward. However, the two police officers immediately revealed their weapons and pointed them at her.

In an instant, Bradley also took out his pistol and pointed it at the officers.

The atmosphere became extremely tense.

Freya shrugged and said, "Officers, you're overthinking. I won't hurt her. I just want to control her condition."

After saying that, seeing that the officers didn't believe her, Freya revealed her identity. "I'm Lexi, proficient in acupuncture. Besides, if I really wanted to kill this woman, you wouldn't be able to stop me."

This was the truth.

But the officers were angry.

They were law enforcement officers, yet Freya had openly provoked them, and Bradley had even pointed a gun at them.

With such bad behavior, according to the laws of the capital city, assaulting a police officer was subject to criminal liability.

Seeing that the officers still didn't move aside, Bradley narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Newcomers?"

Only newcomers wouldn't recognize Bradley.

Of course, seeing that they didn't answer, Bradley knew the answer and took out his phone to make a call.

A moment later, one of the officers' phones rang. After he answered the call, he immediately apologized to Bradley. "Master of Solterra, I was blind and didn't know your identity. Please forgive me."

Bradley didn't have the patience to listen to their nonsense and waved his hand to signal them to move aside.

The officers didn't dare to offend the two important figures and stepped aside, leaving Freya space for the treatment.

Freya acted quickly. After inserting three silver needles, the crazy Jiang Xiuzhen immediately quieted down, but her mental state was even worse than before.

"Since you know our identities, I want the patient to say a few words to my mother. Do you have any objections?"

The officers quickly said, "It's up to the Master of Solterra to decide."

This answer satisfied Freya.

She personally pushed the wheelchair, bringing Jiang Xiuzhen closer to her mother's photo.

The Jiang Xiuzhen, who had just calmed down, suddenly hugged her head and shouted insanely, "No, Bai Zhilan, I don't want to see you. Go away."

This time, Freya didn't try to control her. Instead, she looked down at her coldly and the corner of her mouth curled into a disdainful smile. "Why don't you want to see her? You were the one who had someone drive to run me over. The blood splattered everywhere, and my skull was shattered. You should have been very happy and excited to see me die so miserably, right?"

"No, it wasn't me. It wasn't me," Jiang Xiuzhen's face was as pale as paper. She curled up and trembled all over because of fear.

Hearing this, Freya's pupils shrank slightly. She firmly grabbed Jiang Xiuzhen's shoulders, and her voice was as cold as poisoned ice.

"If it wasn't you, then who was it?"

Back then, Jiang Xiuzhen had been full of lies, causing Freya to overlook too many details and remain in the dark.

If she hadn't gone to Country Z this time, she might still not know that there was another reason for her mother's death.

"It was... someone instructed me to do it. She said she would give me money, and I was bewitched for a moment and agreed..."

"No, you had already planned to kill my mother. So that person's suggestion just made your plan happen earlier. Jiang Xiuzhen, don't think that I'll let you go just because you're like this now. The nightmare is just the beginning of your path to death. Next, you'll suffer even more and eventually die in despair little by little."

After saying this, Freya grabbed Jiang Xiuzhen from the wheelchair. Jiang Xiuzhen let out a hoarse scream and fell to the ground helplessly.

The director standing behind saw this and, feeling pity, wanted to step forward to help her up, but was stopped by Bradley's cold and fierce gaze.

No matter what Freya wanted to do, he would give her the greatest freedom to act.

Even if she wanted Jiang Xiuzhen's life now, no one could stop her!

"Sir, the patient she..."

"If it weren't for Freya's help, she wouldn't have lived until now," Bradley interrupted the director coldly before she could finish.

With the crimes Jiang Xiuzhen had committed, once sentenced, she would surely be executed. It was Freya who had kept her alive so that she could atone for her sins.

Jiang Xiuzhen should be grateful to Freya for sparing her life. Even when she would die was up to Freya!

The director was frightened by Bradley's warning gaze and didn't dare to do anything further.

After Jiang Xiuzhen fell, Freya directly grabbed her head and forcefully banged it against the gravestone.

"My mother has been lying here for so many years, and you've enjoyed your life for the same number of years. Didn't you want to see my mother? Now you're so close. Take a good look at her."

"No, no, ah..."

Jiang Xiuzhen was extremely scared. All she could do was cry and scream. In the end, her throat was so hoarse that she couldn't make a sound.

Freya stood expressionlessly in the wind, looking coldly at the scene in front of her. It wasn't until she thought it was almost enough that she asked the director to come and take the person away.

Everything that happened today was purely accidental. If Jiang Xiuzhen hadn't shown up here herself, Freya wouldn't have been so heartless.

With the departure of Jiang Xiuzhen and the others, the cemetery returned to silence.

Freya took out a handkerchief from her body and wiped her mother's gravestone clean again.

Although she had taught Jiang Xiuzhen a lesson, she didn't want this woman's dirty hands to desecrate her mother's peaceful resting place.

Bradley squatted down and wiped it with her.

Freya turned her head to look at him and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Do you think I'm being too heartless?"

Even she was starting to question whether what she had done was right or wrong.

Jiang Xiuzhen had been pushed to such a desperate situation. An ordinary person would feel sorry for her, yet she could still pull her down from the wheelchair so coldly.

In the eyes of others, she must be a woman who was ruthless and used her power to be cruel.

Bradley raised his hand and gently stroked her hair. He said, "No, you're not wrong. You're just seeking justice for your mother."

If it were him, he would definitely make these villains pay a greater price.

Therefore, in his opinion, Freya's actions were already merciful.

"But she's already gone crazy, and she looks like neither a human nor a ghost now. She has already received the retribution she deserved," Freya squatted there for a long time without moving. Looking at the desolate cemetery, her heart felt cold.

Bradley knew the struggle in her heart and was even more aware that Freya was a woman who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She seemed heartless on the surface, but in fact, she was kinder than anyone else.

"If you feel guilty, just let her fend for herself from now on."

He tilted her head onto his shoulder to give her the greatest comfort.

Freya remained silent for a long time and just leaned on his shoulder. It wasn't until a light drizzle suddenly started to fall from the sky that she said, "Let's go. It's raining."

"Okay."

Bradley stood up first, pulled her up as well, and picked up the black umbrella on the ground to shield her from the rain.

The two of them walked on the wet bluestone path step by step towards the direction where the car was parked.

After leaving the cemetery and looking back in the direction of her mother's gravestone, it was already obscured by a thick layer of haze.

Perhaps, as Bradley had said, Jiang Xiuzhen had already received her retribution. Whether she lived or died was up to her own fate.
