Chapter 554 Alicia Was Put Under House Arrest 

“I’m a member of the Archer family, Grandpa. Of course I’d find a way out for our family!” Hearing Lawrence’s praise, Nicholas was ecstatic. 

“if we defect to Vadesia, we can stay in Southlake City, right?” Lawrence asked. 

“Of course. If we defect to Vadesia, it means we’re on their side. We won’t be unharmed even if they invade Southlake City,” Nicholas said. 

“Send a reply to Kenzie immediately and tell him that we, the Archer family, have already decided to defect to Vadesia,” Lawrence said. 

“Yes, Grandpa! I’ll get in contact with him right away!” Nicholas nodded. 

The Hudson family was also in dire straits. Naturally, they didn’t want to give up on their businesses in Southlake City as well. However, they didn’t have any better solutions. 

Richard took the chance to share with them the solution he thought of, which was to seek refuge in Vadesia, and the family ultimately decided to do so. 

Alicia was worried, though. 

“Betraying one’s country is punishable by a death sentence! I think this isn’t a good solution, as it might put the family in danger. I hope that everyone can think about it more carefully,” Alicia advised. 

“You’re just my granddaughter-in-law. You don’t have the right to dictate what the family’s going to do, so just do as we say,” Richard’s grandfather, Grant Hudson, said. 

“Alicia, your excessive kindness has no place here. You shouldn’t stick your nose into the family’s business, either,” Richard reprimanded. 

“What? Do I not even have the right to speak? Committing treason is a serious crime. What you’re doing now is bringing about your own destruction!” Alicial said with righteous indignation. 

“How rude! What do you know? You’re only my granddaughter-in-law! Do nothing, and the family will lose our family wealth. Only after seeking refuge in Vadesia will we have a way out,” Grant snapped. 

“The situation in Díatoran indeed doesn’t look good, but you’re thinking of defecting to the enemy when our soldiers are fighting on the battlefield.

“What if the Diatoranian troops succeed in repelling the enemy? The Hudsons would become criminals should that happen, wouldn’t you? Perhaps no one in the family would survive. I don’t want to be alongside you as you dig your hole and die in it!” Alicia said. 

“You’re too young and stupid. How is Diatoran supposed to repel the enemy? Who can realize it? Even a person so useless as Caspian Lynch could be a chief commander. Diatoran is doomed to fail!” Grant said angrily. 

“Alicia, can you shut up? You have no place to speak when in the presence of our family!” Richard said sharply. Naturally, he was annoyed to see that Alicia was opposed to his idea. 

“What do you mean by that, Richard Hudson? Are you saying I’ve lost my right to speak after marrying you? Am I not a member of the Hudson family now?” Alicia snapped, annoyed. 

“You’re a member of the Hudson family-you do still know that. Grandpa’s the one making the important decision now, so why are you sticking your nose in it? “Richard said. 

“How can you all be so blind? The Hudson family will be killed if this goes on!” Alicia said. 

“That’s enough! Stop fighting! I’ve already decided that we’re to defect to Vadesia. If you don’t want to go to the right side with us, you’re free to get out and go back to the Stewarts!” Grant barked. 

“I’ll do that!” Alicia left the room after saying that. 

Right after Alicia’s departure, the family butler, Jack, came to a realization. “Mr. Hudson Senior, what if Alicia tells someone else about our decision to defect after returning to the Stewarts?” 

Everyone was stunned. 

“Wait, you’re right! Vadesia still hasn’t taken Diatoran yet. What if Alicia tells someone else about our decision after she returns to her family home? We’ll be doomed!” Richard said. 

Everyone knew that it was extremely important for them to defect to Vadesia at this time. They would surely be in serious trouble if word of this got out. 

“Stop her!” Grant suddenly came to this realization as well. 

“Yes, Grandpa!” Richard chased after Alicia, along with several of his men. 

Right after Alicia left the Hudson villa, Richard and the other men caught up to

“What are you doing, Richard? I won’t go back there no matter what!” Alicia thought Richard had caught up to her because he wanted her to go back into the family home. 

“Alicia, you can’t leave this place,” Richard said. 

“Why can’t I? You asked me to get out of here, yet you refuse to let me do so. What do you mean by this?” Alicia asked angrily. 

“I didn’t mean what I said. You can’t go back to the Stewart family home,” Richard said. 

“What do you want me to do, then? You drove me out! Why can’t I go back to the Stewarts’?” Alicia said exasperatedly, rolling her eyes. 

“You don’t have any say in that!” Richard said viciously. 

“I want to go back to my family. What can you do about that, huh? I don’t want to become a traitor along with you all. I’ll feel ashamed to even bring this up to someone else!” Alicia said, annoyed. 

Richard didn’t want to continue discussing this with Alicia any further. He waved to his men, saying, “Take her back into the house!” 

The men surged forward and held Alicia down. 

“What do you think you’re doing, you bastards? Let me go!” Alicia cursed, the humiliation she felt morphing into anger. 

The men didn’t listen to her at all. 

“Let’s go! Take her back there!” Richard said, waving again. 

Alicia was totally in shock. She realized that things were getting worse. 

“What are you doing, Richard? Let me go! I want to go back to Stewart Residence! 

Alicia screamed loudly. 

Richard didn’t respond to that at all. Alicia was his wife, but he wouldn’t give her any leeway. His family had already decided to defect to Vadesia. The family would be in grave danger if Alicia were to spread the word of that. 

Soon after, Alicia was taken back to the Hudson residence. 

“Let me go! Let me go! I want to go home!” Alicia roared in rage. 

“What should we do next, Grandpa?” Richard asked. 

“Lock her in a room and keep a close watch over her. She can never be let out!”

“Understood!” Richard immediately gave an order. “Lock her in a room and have several men keep watch outside it!” 

“Yes, sir!” The men took Alicia away and locked her in a room. 

Alicia was in despair. She only had a different standpoint on this issue from the Hudsons, but now, she was unexpectedly put under house arrest. How dared they!
