Release That Succubus



"Yes the cops said that we were selling toxic goods to the public and were here to arrest father for that reason. They had a warrant for father's arrest too. One of them kept waving it in front of father's face. I wanted to punch him so badly but father held me back."

Violet listened intently to Clara's words and managed to make some sense out of it this time. She let out a breath of relief when she heard that her father had held the impulsive Clara back or the situation would have turned even worse.

In her opinion the whole situation smelled of the Hunter family. This was their usual modus operandi. Whenever they couldn't get what they wanted the right way, they would resort to unlawful means and dishonest methods to take down their opponents. That was the only reason that the Hunter family still maintained their position as the top family of Byzantium city despite lagging behind in terms of business capabilities. She believed that the Hunter family was perfectly capable of orchestrating this scheme to stop the increasing popularity of sugar by declaring it to be a toxic product. After all, it was quite easy to hire a few desperados willing to lie for money.

Unlike in the past when Marico was weak and the Windsor family didn't dare to retaliate, Violet was now empowered by the current success of the Windsor family. She could retaliate in a similar manner if she wanted to but she needed more information to make her move. Moreover, she still needed to ensure her father's safety first before thinking of retaliation. 

"Did you hear anything else?" asked Violet hurriedly because she was worried that the Hunter family might try to make things difficult for Marico using their connections.

"No, Father sent me to you before I could hear anything else. They must have taken him away already. Maybe I shouldn't have come back immediately…"

Clara was about to burst into tears again as she thought of her father being dragged away by those hateful cops but Violet's calm gaze hypnotized her into forgetting what happened.

Violet now knew everything Clara witnessed but she couldn't reject the bad feeling she was trying to suppress. Although the Hunter family was full of schemes, they had always done so behind the Windsor family's back. This was the first time they had attacked from the front. She was worried that they might be planning to remove the root of their problems this time.

And this didn't allow her to calm down. She was panicking on the inside but had to stay calm and composed for the sake of her sister.

Thinking for a while, she couldn't come up with a solution to this problem because the charges against the Windsor family had to be settled in front of a judge. They still didn't know who the source of the allegation against the Windsor family was. 

Only after Violet heard from the affected individuals suing the Windsor family could she do something to take care of it. Meanwhile, she had to think of something else that could ensure her father's safety.I think you should take a look at

After deliberating over it for some time, Violet hurriedly got up from her office couch as if to go somewhere.

Clara was leaning on Violet for emotional support at the moment and she couldn't let go of her for the sake of her mental health. She clung on to her arm and asked in a trembling voice, "Where are you going?"

"We should get Luke to help us. That is our only option in this situation where we don't know anything about our enemies. In that case, we can only keep our father safe until we do."

"What can he possibly do to the hunter family? The royal family has probably ousted him already and has forgotten all about him. They might not help him even if he asked them on our behalf."

Clara was skeptical about the help Luke could provide them. The royal family had already sidelined him to Byzantium city while the poor bloke kept working hard for the sake of the empire. Luke couldn't even help himself; Clara wondered how he could help their father with his current status.

"Even though he is the furthest thing from being the part of the royal family, his words still hold a lot of sway in the army. He can probably stop the police from mistreating our father and the government officials to hold back on their dishonest practices so that we can focus our energy into finding evidence for our father's innocence. At the very least, he can help us hold them all back until we come back with the evidence."

Violet walked out of her office door while dragging the clinging Clara along with her. Since Clara wasn't willing to let go of Violet until she told her the entire plan, Violet had no choice but to bring her along to ask Luke for help. Unlike the other people who reveal their true colors when they were in trouble, Luke had always been genuine with the two of them. Therefore, they had an understanding of each other's character which allowed Violet to put her trust in the man without blinking an eye.

…

During this time of the day, Luke was usually busy training soldiers in the more suburban part of Byzantium city. He had long since become a symbol of hope and an ideal for the people. The hard work he had put in since he was young was visible to the members of the army who joined before him. They not only respected him because he was part of the royal family but also because he was the only one willing to fight for the empire with his own body instead of hiding away in a castle deep within the capital.

All the warriors were usually eccentric like that. They disdained those in the government who were unwilling to put their lives on the line and considered the lives of the soldiers as chess pieces. Therefore, the exception that Luke was highly appreciated and respected by even the upper echelons of the army.
