A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 30

It was getting dark, so most of the police officers had already knocked off. A tall figure hurriedly rushed inside the H City police station.

He was dressed in a camouflage uniform. His thick eyebrows and sharp eyes added an appeal to his handsome face. His slightly dry lips were tightly pressed. All in all, he emanated a great sense of integrity.

Behind him was an assistant, who went straight to the officer at the front desk to look for Chief Wang.

"Chief Wang is off duty now," answered the officer who was sorting out some documents. But when he caught sight of the man in uniform, he immediately stood up and ran over to greet. With a smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Lu, how are you? What can I do for you today? Please have a seat first."

The man glanced at the officer indifferently, ignoring his greeting. Instead, he asked, "Where is Maria Song?"

"Oh, she is over there," the officer answered at once, pointing at a direction.

When the man's gaze followed the direction the officer pointed at, he saw Maria in a corner. She was barefooted, leaning against the cold wall, hugging her knees, and dozing off. Maria looked so exhausted. She had been waiting for him to rescue her the whole afternoon.

The man strode towards her and lifted her up without saying a word. The few officers that were left in the station were all stunned.

Maria opened her eyes. Knowing that it was him, she smiled and said, "Lawrie, thank God you still have a conscience. You are way much better than your best friend." The truth was, she wasn't asleep. It would be too difficult for her to fall asleep in the police station. She just felt too bored waiting for her rescue, so she closed her eyes.

With amusement in his eyes, Lawrence pretended to be hostile. "My best friend? He will cut ties with me because of you." For the first time in their lives, Lawrence and his best friend might have a fight. And it was only because of a woman.

Lawrence strode towards the door with Maria in his arms.

"I don't think so. You have been friends for more than a decade now. A woman can't ruin your deep friendship," Maria said with a chuckle.

Lawrence didn't counter anymore. He knew that Maria was right.

Before going out of the police station, Lawrence stopped at the front desk and said to the officer, "Tell your chief that Lawrence Lu has taken Maria Song away. I'll call James Xi later."

At this moment, Lee, who had just gone out for dinner, came back to the station. When he saw that Lawrence was taking Maria away, he wanted to stop Lawrence.

However, before he could step forward, another officer grabbed his arm to stop him. The officer scolded him in a low voice, "Don't do it, Lee! Do you want to lose your job?"

Lee was confused, so he asked, "Is he Maria Song's lawyer? Or the owner of the villa decided to let her go?"

"Neither of the above."

"Huh?"

"Don't you really know the man who has taken Maria Song just now?"

"No. Who is he?"

"He is Lawrence Lu!"

Lee was stunned. "Really? Are you sure that he is Lawrence Lu?"

"Yes. I am more than one hundred percent sure."

Lawrence was a member of the powerful Lu family and James' best friend. But what mattered the most was his position. He was the leader of a special organization in H Country, with over ten thousand elite soldiers. This organization was directly under the control of the government.

Word had it that last year, a gang was offered a reward of two billion dollars in exchange for Lawrence's life. But Lawrence uprooted them by himself in less than three months.

His countless heroic acts were known to everyone in H City. He was the number one hero in the hearts of many people.

Lee scratched the back of his head and commented, "Maria Song is really something. She was arrested because James Xi accused her of trespassing. And, Lawrence Lu personally came to take her out."
