After Divorce, My General Husband Chasing Me Back novel Chapter 308

Chapter 308 Prison Secrets Unveiled 

“I have already investigated. The prison staff said it was your orders. They mentioned that shortly after Ms. Prescott entered, you sent someone over to instruct them to ensure she reflected on her mistakes and reformed herself, with no need for leniency. 

“I also retrieved some video footage and sent it to your phone. General Hawthorne, I was shocked when I saw it. I never expected… Ms. Prescott was subjected to such treatment on her very first day…” 

Richard’s indignant voice echoed over the phone, but Frederick could no longer hear him. His mind was consumed with the images of Claire’s suffering. 

His hand gripping the phone trembled, veins bulging with rage, while his other hand clenched into a fist so tightly that his knuckles cracked audibly. 

That night, however long Richard spoke, Frederick listened. 

After the call ended, he stood motionless at the bathroom door, phone in hand, unable to step inside to wash up. 

His bloodshot eyes stared at the videos Richard had sent him. 

By the time he finished watching, he hurled his phone to the 

Chapter 308 Prison Secrets Unveiled ground, shattering it into pieces. 

In that moment, the image of Claire the day she was released from prison played vividly in his mind. 

2/5 

Claire wore a faded, old dress that hung loosely on her thin frame. Her figure was so frail it seemed like she could be blown away by the wind. 

When Frederick first saw Claire that day, he froze. 

The Claire he remembered was never this skinny. 

From childhood, Claire had always been the pampered princess of the Prescott family. Prison life, however, was undoubtedly harsh–no one would cater to her anymore. 

He had assumed that Claire’s arrogance and defiance had led her to suffer greatly in prison, and losing weight was simply a natural result of that hardship. 

So he did not suspect anything more. 

One detail, though, had left a lasting impression. As he got out of my car, he saw the once–proud and haughty Claire standing timidly at the prison gate. Her head was bowed, and she nervously thanked the guards, bowing repeatedly. 

At the time, he had only been momentarily surprised and did not give it much thought. 

But now…

Now, Frederick finally understood everything. 

3/5 

He thought, “The once–prized princess of the Prescott family, cherished and adored, had endured inhumane treatment on her very first day in prison. 

The blood on the screen, the agonized screams, the heart–wrenching cries, and the disheveled, unrecognizable figure–it was hard to believe that was Claire. 

And yet, it was her.” 

It felt as if a gaping hole had been carved into Frederick’s chest. Though numb to the pain, he could barely breathe, suffocated by the weight of it all. 

Silent tears streamed down Frederick’s face, unnoticed even by himself. 

Frederick stood in a daze for an unknown length of time before snapping back to reality. Grabbing his phone, he tried to call Richard, only to notice the shattered pieces on the floor. 

Rushing downstairs to the living room, he used the landline to call Richard. 

“Richard, investigate the prison thoroughly. I want to know who gave those orders, even if you have to turn the entire placé upside down.” 

Frederick thought, “They claimed it was my instruction? 

Chapter 308 Prison Secrets Unveiled Fhad never given such orders,” 

“Yes, General Hawthorne. I will look into it right away! But…should we also ask Mr. Prescott about this?”

Richard had stayed awake after their call, expecting Frederick to follow up. 

Sometimes, outsiders could see things more clearly than those involved. 

Richard had long suspected that Frederick’s feelings for Claire were not purely hatred. 

He thought, “After all, as the saying goes, hate is just love with a grudge.” 

However, Richard also had another suspicion. 

“Do your job,” Frederick snapped, abruptly realizing he had overlooked Harrison’s side of things. 

After hanging up, Frederick hesitated before calling Harrison. Memories of their recent meeting flashed through his mind, including his promise to let Harrison handle things if Claire was found. 

Ultimately, Frederick decided to meet Harrison in person. 

The next morning, after receiving a new phone and restoring his data, Frederick arranged to meet Harrison.

What Frederick did not know was that the moment his phone was restored, news had already spread abroad,

“Miss, we have a problem. Frederick has uncovered the prison incident,” reported Jake Beaumont, the same man who had previously arranged for Caroline to deal with Noah. 

“Calm down. So what if he knows? It was only a matter of time,” the woman on the other end of the line replied nonchalantly.
