Ch. 221..230

Life After Prison Chapter 221-“You’re not lending it to us?” Vincent’s mouth twitched violently too, and his expression was such a delight to watch. He specifically thanked Severin in advance because he wanted to put Severin in a tight spot and force Severin Into lending him the money out of a desire to keep up appearances in front of everyone. Although it was presumptuous of him, he did not mind doing anything as long as he could get the money.

It did not cross his mind that Severin would refuse so directly as to leave absolutely no room for maneuver.

“Three hundred million isn’t a lot to you, and this is the first time I’ve ever asked to borrow money! Aren’t we close family? Why’d you have to say no?” Vincent still tried his best to smile, but his tone suggested that he was not very happy.

“Yeah, Severin, can’t you see that your cousin can’t get married because he doesn’t have any money to buy a house? Don’t you think it’s a little mean of you not to refuse our request?” Vincent’s wife had a sour expression at that time too, and she shot back without even bothering to show Severin any courtesy.

“Aren’t you rich now, Severin? Didn’t you give four hundred and fifty thousand dollars to Aunt Marie even though they only lent you eight hundred dollars? We’re not asking you to just give us the money. We’re borrowing it from you! And it’s just three hundred dollars! That should be peanuts to you! Are you really just going to ignore our request for help?” Vincent’s son Howard looked at Severin coldly too.

Severin smiled coldly and took his time to drink the red wine in his glass. “You say you’re borrowing the money from me, but when will you be able to pay it back with that job of yours? Three hundred thousand isn’t much to me at all, but is there a reason why I should lend it to you? How many times have you been to our house all these years?” Severin’s anger was starting to boil as he spoke. “You never lent my parents any money when they asked to borrow just a few hundred from you, and now you have the nerve to demand that I lend you three hundred thousand? I’m the kind of person who’ll return the favor twofold to those who treat me well, and in that same vein, I’ll always remember when someone treats me badly!” “You…” Howard gritted his teeth angrily but was unable to refute Severin.

Vincent felt even more embarrassed and he finally turned to Judith. “Why aren’t you saying anything, Judith?” “I have nothing to say, Vincent. The money belongs to my son, not me. Whether or not he wishes to lend it is his business. I don’t care at all! Besides, I think my son is doing the right thing, because there’s no point helping those who look down on us!” Judith said with a faint smile.

“Enough, Dad. If they don’t want to borrow us any money, then just give it a rest. It’s not like I won’t be able to get married if I don’t have that money!” Howard could only make that remark because he knew that attempting to borrow money from Severin was futile.

Upon seeing the embarrassment and anger that had sprung up from the brief exchange, Gaston could not help but smile awkwardly and say, “Hey, why are you all even talking about that? Aren’t we here to celebrate Severin now that he’s released from prison, gained some newfound wealth, and will live in a big villa in the future? How can you ask him to borrow you money on such an occasion? It’s inappropriate!” “You’re right, it was inappropriate. Let’s continue enjoying our meal!” Vincent immediately returned to his seat after being helped out of his embarrassment.

“Come and have a drink! The wine here isn’t cheap, and one glass might be worth several hundred dollars!” Clement also laughed.

“Haha, don’t worry, Uncle Clement. I might not be able to borrow anyone any money, but today’s meal is on me, and there will be no shortage of wine today!” Severin laughed and said that on purpose.

Clement echoed with a smile and said, “Haha, you’re getting wittier as you grow older. Let me give you a toast, Severin. Better days ahead for you!”

Life After Prison Chapter 222-“Thanks, Uncle Clement!” Severin smiled, clinked glasses with Clement, and drank the wine. However, he knew very well that any one of Gaston, Clement, or Vincent were much richer than him. The richest of all, Gaston, had a net worth of several million and even established a small company, but he still did not lend Severin’s family a single dime when they needed it most.

They could all keep dreaming if they wanted to borrow any money from Severin.

By contrast, even the poor aunt Marie was able to fork out eight thousand dollars to lend to his family and help them constantly. Severin would remember that kindness forever and repay them for sure.

His other aunt, Edwina, was poor too and stayed in a rented house. Her son graduated not two years ago and had to borrow money to go to college. Maurice and Judith were aware of Edwina’s financial condition, so they decided not to borrow money for them during the past few years.

Although Vincent was upset at not getting any money, he regretted it more than anything. His sister had asked to borrow a few hundred just a year ago, and though he had several thousand dollars in hand at the time, he ridiculed her and said that she should not have married a loser like Maurice. In hindsight, it might not be that difficult to borrow several hundred thousand from Severin had he just lent the money to Judith at the time.

Gaston was also feeling a little dejected too. He had his eye on a rather promising project in recent times but unfortunately did not have enough money. The situation with Vincent made it quite clear that he probably had no hope of borrowing any money from Severin, and deep down, he also regretted not lending any money to Maurice.

At that moment, Judith’s cell phone rang suddenly and it turned out to be a call from her sister Edwina. Edwina was already at the hotel lobby, but she did not know which VIP room to go to. Judith then excused herself and went out to bring Edwina’s family up.

“Can we get some more plates and cutlery, please?” Severin asked the waiter.

As soon as Edwina sat down, she was completely dumbfounded as she stared at the medley of delicious dishes on the table. There was king crab, lobster, and many other exquisite delicacies. She said somewhat awkwardly, “Isn’t all this food expensive, Judith?” “Don’t worry about that. Just eat up!” Judith smiled. “Didn’t you say that you were meeting your son’s prospective partner and didn’t have any time to come for lunch?” Edwina had an embarrassed expression and turned to look at her husband, Finn Scheffler. Finn could only sigh and say, “Things didn’t work out. She’s a good girl though. Both Edwina and I are very fond of her. Our boy Evan has been dating her for two years, but the girl’s parents said that we need to prepare a thirty-thousand-dollar dowry, and a home for them to move in after marriage. If those conditions aren’t met, they won’t even consider it!” After finishing speaking, Finn glanced dejectedly at his son Evan and said, “It’s all my fault, Evan. The reason you can’t be with the girl you like is because I’m an incompetent father!” “Don’t say that, Dad! It’s already difficult enough for you to raise and support me through Chapter college. Thirty thousand is a big amount, and we even have to buy a house. Let’s talk about this some other time. I don’t blame you at all. The main reason this couldn’t work out was because I’m the incompetent one! It’s not your fault at all!” Evan sighed.

Severin could see that Evan really loved the girl, but unfortunately, there was no way that a college student who had just graduated not long ago had the means to buy a house and fork out that dowry.

As Severin thought about that, he could not help but ask, “What do you think of that girl, Evan?” Evan smiled. “She’s a good person. She even helped us to persuade her parents by saying that we can work toward getting a house together, and that a thirty-thousand-dollar dowry is more than enough. But her parents were very insistent, saying that a young person must have a house in this day and age because they don’t want their daughter to suffer after getting married!” After hearing that, Severin nodded. “If that’s the case, then how about I give you two hundred thousand dollars. That should cover the cost of a house and the dowry. Will that be enough?”

Life After Prison Chapter 223-“No way, Severin. You’re kidding, right? That’s a whole load of money!” Evan was taken aback and wondered if he had heard wrongly. ‘Is Severin really going to give all that money to me? I’ve never seen so much money in my life!

“Why would I joke around with you?” Severin smiled. “Back to my question, will that be enough?” Evan gulped and said, “Yes, of course! It’ll definitely be enough to buy a small three-bedroom house in the suburbs, and that’ll cost maybe a hundred thousand. That, and thirty-thousand dowry, comes to a total of a hundred and thirty thousand. That’s already more than enough!” After thinking about it, he then said, “I don’t need that much. You can just lend me seventy thousand dollars. I’ll give her the thirty thousand as the dowry and use the remaining forty thousand as down payment for the house. I swear I’ll return it to you when you have the money again!’ Severin smiled. “That won’t be necessary. I already told you that I’m giving it to you, not borrowing it to you. And besides, seventy thousand is hardly enough. You’re going to buy a house, give her a dowry, and you have to spend money on renovating your new place. That requires money too, right? What about your wedding celebrations? By my estimate, that’ll require at least two hundred thousand dollars!” “Severin, wait…are you really giving us all that money? We can’t possibly accept that. Please just treat it as a loan from us!” Finn and Edwina were startled and said hastily to Severin.

They were all honest farmers who had never seen so much money in their entire life. As a result, they would not dare to accept the big sum that Severin was offering!

Severin looked at the old couple and then said to Edwina, “Your family used to raise pigs in the village, and every time one of those piggies went to slaughter, you would always bring some meat for our family. You’ve treated our family well, and I remember the kindness you’ve shown us. That money isn’t much, and Evan has a good relationship with me too!” Gaston could not help but smile and say, “Sigh, you guys should accept his gesture. Severin. has a lot of money now. The villa he lives in is worth more than eleven million, and the meal we’re having is well over a hundred and fifty thousand. He’s a grateful person, this boy!” He had clearly become friendlier and continued to heap praise on Severin.

“This meal….is so expensive!” Finn and Edwina were dumbfounded. Severin was not rich-he was crazy rich!

There was still a frown on Evan’s face. “I feel bad for accepting all this money, Severin! I don’t even know how to thank you!” Severin laughed. “Just remember to invite me and my wife to your wedding!” After saying that, he turned to Diane and asked her, “What do you think, honey? Do I get your approval?” Diane was speechless. He had only remembered to ask her after he had made a decision, and it would be humiliating for Severin if she said no.

She then smiled and said, “Why would I disapprove? I like it when my man is a grateful person who knows how to appreciate other people’s kindness!” 1/2 “You must be my cousin-in-law then? I’m very glad to meet you!” Evan immediately poured himself a glass of wine, and raised a toast to her while saying, “To the two of you! May you be blessed with a child soon!” Diane immediately said in embarrassment, “We already have a daughter. Let’s talk about having another child sometime in the future. I don’t have plans to have a second child just yet!

Severin grinned. “Yes, yes. There’s no rush now. We’ll have another baby eventually!” Diane immediately shot Severin a glance. ‘He’s got some nerve using that remark to his advantage!’ “Oh, you have a daughter!” Evan froze and finally turned to look at Selene. “This must be her, then? She’s incredibly adorable!”

Life After Prison Chapter 224-“Haha, she takes after her cute mother of course!” Severin laughed. Diane secretly pinched hist thigh in response.

After they all finished their meal, they went with Severin’s to visit his villa. Everyone had a look of amazement as they arrived at the villa gate.

“This is peak luxury!” “Yeah, this is huge! I now understand why this magnificent property is worth more than ten million!” The villa before them left them all dumbstruck.

“Are those six beauties Severin’s bodyguards? Tsk, tsk, tsk. Are hot bodyguards all the rage now?” Gaston could not help but gulp when he saw those beautiful, young, and vivacious bodyguards. Some of them were even wearing sexy denim shorts that revealed their luscious long legs and left him feeling a little hot.

He wondered to himself whether Severin was hiring bodyguards or lovers. After all, it made no sense for bodyguards to be that good-looking!

After everyone had taken a tour of the house, Severin asked Evan to provide his bank account number so the money could be transferred later on. A motley of expressions appeared on the faces of the other relatives, and Vincent in particular, had the most unsavory expression among them all. Who could blame him when he saw Severin give two hundred thousand to Evan after his request to borrow money had been rejected?

About two to three hours later, everyone had to leave and excused themselves one after another. However, Severin did not expect that Gaston would still linger around.

He went up to Severin and said with a smile, “You did the right thing today, Severin.” Severin was stunned for a moment. ‘Is he really trying to flatter me? Did he make a point to stay back just so he could praise me! Probably not.” “Really? Do you think so too, Uncle Gaston?” Severin smiled and did not expose Gaston’s hypocritical actions.

Gaston chuckled and said, “Of course! I can tell that you’re someone who knows how to repay a person’s kindness. In fact, I’m the same too. I’ll always remember the good deeds someone has done for me.” Severin sneered and thought to himself, “This guy can lie without even batting an eye!’ Gaston saw Severin’s silence and said again, “That Vincent severed ties with your family after so many years, and he somehow still has the nerve to ask if he could borrow money from you. Can you believe it? I’m surprised he could even bring himself to ask for three hundred thousand from you. Doesn’t he know how much his family earns? They definitely won’t be able to return the money you lent to them, and you were right not to lend it to them!” As he said that, he smiled and continued, “But you know, Severin, I’ve recently been targeting a very promising project that will definitely make money. It’s just… There’s been some 1/2 Chapter 224 difficulty in turning over the company’s funds. I don’t want to borrow too much. How does four-hundred- and-fifty-thousand sound? We’re Feuillets, aren’t we? And Feuillets will definitely pay their debts! Besides, you can afford bodyguards too, so I wouldn’t dare to not return the money.” Severin knew that it was Gaston’s goal all along after all that flattery earlier. He could not help but smile slightly and stretch his waist as he said, “You’re right, Uncle Gaston. I do know how to repay my debts, and I’d very much wish to repay your kindness too. But I’ve been thinking, and I just can’t figure out what kind deed you’ve shown to my family before. As much as I’d like to help, I’m afraid I can’t!” “I…” Gaston froze on the spot and his face twitched violently a couple of times.

Severin did not bother to pay attention to him and went directly into the house. “Oh, by the way, I’ve heard that the Emerald Cloud Gang are money lenders too, but they charge a really high interest. If you really are short of money, you can always give them a try! That’s all I can help you with!”

Life After Prison Chapter 225-Gaston stood rooted to the ground as the corners of his mouth twitched violently. Borrowing money from the Emerald Cloud Gang was a foolish move. Their men were ruthless people, and he could not afford to provoke them.

Besides, he asked to borrow money from Severin because there was no interest, and he could either pay it back slowly or perhaps even have the debt written off eventually. Had it not been for those two factors, he would never have asked to borrow money from Severin.

“What a d*ck. I got nothing after flattering him!” In the end, Gaston could only grit his teeth and drive away.

Finn’s family arrived home very soon, and they were very happy when they recalled that Severin would give their family two hundred thousand dollars.

Along the way, Evan could not contain his excitement and immediately said to his parents, Mom, Dad, I’m going to meet Whitney and tell her that I can marry her now!” “What are you waiting for then!” Edwina breathed a sigh of relief when she saw how excited her son was. She did not forget to slip in a reminder to Evan and say, “Don’t forget your cousin’s kindness, Evan? The favor he’s shown us is something that we’ll never be able to repay in a million lifetimes!” Evan nodded. “I understand, Mom. As long as there’s anything I can be of use to me in the future, I promise to work very hard for him!” Evan then immediately called his girlfriend, Whitney Summer, and asked to meet in the park where they usually went on dates. It did not take long for Whitney to arrive with a luggage bag. “Whitney?

What’s up?” Evan frowned when he saw the luggage bag she was dragging along. Whitney looked around as if she was afraid of being followed. Once she finally saw that there was no one around, she said nervously to Evan, “I’ve made up my mind, Evan. Let’s elope. I can’t help that my parents insist on us buying a house, but where are you going to get the money when you just graduated? I think it’s best that we elope!” “But that won’t be good, right? Won’t your parents be very sad!” Evan felt touched by her gesture when he heard that.

“Are you worried about having to let go of your job? It’s true that you’ve landed a good position and your future is secure, but we can’t be together if we don’t elope. I…I’m worried my parents will force me to marry a rich man. I don’t want that, Evan! I only want to be with you!” Whitney’s eyes were red as she said that and she felt like crying because of how sad she was.

Evan smiled and took her hand. “You don’t need to worry about that anymore, because we’ll be together. We can afford a house and the dowry now! I promise we’ll be there for each other, and I swear we’ll get your parents’ blessing!” “What are you talking about? Where did you get so much money?” Whitney asked bitterly. ” Please don’t lie to me to make me feel better. Let’s just elope!” Evan then said, “My cousin gave it to me. He’s now very rich and lives in a villa that’s worth ” millions. I’ve had a good relationship with him since we were young, and our family has been very kind to theirs too. He knows our situation right now, so he said he’ll give me two hundred. thousand so I can be with you!” “Two h-h-h-hundred thousand?” Whitney’s eyes widened and she wondered if she had heard it wrongly. It was simply unthinkable that someone could just give away two hundred thousand dollars! ‘Just how rich is his cousin?’ “Yes. I’m not lying to you. There’s still a lot left over even after we use the money for the dowry and the house. When the time comes, we’ll use what’s left over to renovate our house and buy a car. It’s enough for our wedding too. We can be together now, Whitney!” Evan hugged her tightly while assuring her.

Life After Prison Chapter 226-Evan’s cell phone vibrated. He raised it up to look at the screen and said excitedly, “Look, Whitney! My cousin just transferred the money! He was telling the truth!” Whitney took the phone, counted the money carefully, and realized that there was two hundred thousand dollars in the account. Her emotions immediately got the better of her and she could not hold back her tears from falling.

Elsewhere, at the Shanahans, Stanley went to his grandmother and complained angrily, ” Grandma, Diane asked for a day off again today. She’s only been working for a few days but she’s already asking for a day off! The excuse she gave was something along the lines of treating some guests to a meal and having a short housewarming. She even used her authority willy-nilly to let her father retire early and enjoy the company’s retirement funds.” Stanley paused and said indignantly again, “Worst of all, she’s already fired several employees even though she’s only been on the job for a couple of days!” Unexpectedly, Catherine smiled at him and said, “Diane told me about that last issue in advance. They’re all your close associates, and they’re incompetent fools who do nothing for the company. They also falsified the accounts so they could be reimbursed for all the wine and dine that they were enjoying on company time!” Stanley’s lips twitched a few times when he heard that. He had been thinking about complaining to his grandmother about Diane but did not expect Diane to have complained to her about it before him. He immediately said with an aggrieved expression, “Really? Why don’t I know about it? They used to do a good job under me, and I think they’re just showing their dissatisfaction with Diane after she became the new general manager!” He then immediately changed the subject and said, “There are only three days left before the official launch of the Liberty City project. Why hasn’t Severin given us any news yet? He’s not lying to us, is he? What are we going to do if he’s been pulling our leg all along?” The old lady smiled icily in response. “Well, Diane and Severin are inseparable, and it’s clear that she wants to be with him. Furthermore, Severin has a good relationship with Draco Hall and Henry, so even if he can’t secure us the quota, I can’t go back on my word after I’ve accepted Severin as the Shanahans’ son-in-law! He’s now considered a part of the Shanahans!

Having made that point clear, she paused again and said, “But if Severin fails to help us get a quota, then I’ll use Diane’s abuse of authority as an excuse to remove her from his position. The company will still be managed by you in the end!” “Wise decision, Grandma. Thanks for always treating me so well!” Stanley was overjoyed and immediately said flatteringly.

The old lady smiled. “Let’s go. We’re going to pay them a visit and ask them about the situation while we’re at it. After all, it’s only three days away!” “Right, let’s go!” Stanley was incredibly excited to wrestle back his position from Diane. When he thought of how she would be removed before she could even get the chance to warm the seat, he was eager to see how petulant her reaction would be when the time came.

millions. I’ve had a good relationship with him since we were young, and our family has been very kind to theirs too. He knows our situation right now, so he said he’ll give me two hundred. thousand so I can be with you!” “Two h-h-h-hundred thousand?” Whitney’s eyes widened and she wondered if she had heard. it wrongly.

When he thought of how she would be removed before she could even get the chance to warm the seat, he was eager to see how petulant her reaction would be when the time came.

Soon, Stanley drove off with his grandmother and his father.

“Hold up. Why are there so many beautiful women here?” Stanley’s eyes lit up as soon as he arrived at the gate. He did not expect that there would be six beautiful women chatting away happily there.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Catherine, “Grandma, do you think Severin found. these women too…anyway, I think he’s going overboard now that he has money!” When Lillie saw some strangers at the door, she went over and asked them, “Who are you?” “We’re the Shanahans. She’s Shanahan’s esteemed matriarch!” Stanley cocked his head and said arrogantly, “And we should be the ones asking who you are!” “We’re the bodyguards Mister Severin hired. Please wait a moment. I’ll notify them that you’re here!” Lillie immediately answered.

Life After Prison Chapter 227-Not long later, Severin, Diane and the others came out from the house.

“Grandma? Why are you here?” Diane immediately greeted Catherine. “Come on in, Grandma!

Beside Catherine stood Stanley and George, and their expressions sank slightly because they felt a little upset that Diane ignored them.

“Ah, it’s you! Ma’am, George, Stanley. Please come in!” Judith stepped forward and greeted with a smile, which soothed George and Stanley a little more.

“This villa is truly huge and magnificent!” The old lady admired the big villa and could not help but express her awe.

Very soon, Diane led them to the living room and invited them to have a seat.

“What brings you here today, Grandma?” Diane asked as she made tea for them. She felt rather happy because she did not expect that her grandmother would take the initiative to come and visit.

The old lady smiled slightly and said, “Nothing in particular. I just wanted to come and have a look. After all, all I can do is envy this place. I used to want to live in one of the villas here too. It is a symbol of status, after all! ” Diane smiled. “You can always stay here a while longer if you like this place, Grandma. It’s quiet and very comfortable to live in. The air is super fresh too!” The old lady waved her hands. “It’s fine. I’m used to living at the old place anyway, and Severin’s entire family is staying here with your family too. I can’t possibly bother you.” When Stanley saw that his grandmother was beating around the bush, he could not wait any longer and asked directly, “By the way, Diane, how’s progress with the Liberty City project quota? Any hope for us?” Diane did not know the specifics and Severin did not tell her about it either. She could only smile awkwardly and say, “I’m not too sure. Severin gave his word, so I’m confident he can handle it!” “His word, you say? Is his word reliable? There are only three days left, so where is he going to get the chance if he hasn’t settled it by now?” Stanley could not help but sneer when he heard that. It seemed imminent that Diane would have to step down soon.

To everyone’s astonishment, Severin took out something that looked like an invitation from his trouser pocket and handed it to the old lady. “This is an invitation letter to attend the launching, Grandma. You do know what that means, don’t you?” The old lady was excited when she saw that and immediately took the invitation letter to open it. Her hands could not help but tremble slightly with excitement as she said, “This…this is good news! This ceremony is by invitation only and the words here are printed in gold font! If it was black font instead of gold, it means that we were invited but only given a chance to secure a quota in the project. Gold font means that the quota has already been reserved for us!” “Grandma! Did you…see that right?” Stanley’s complexion instantly soured and he hurriedly asked the old lady.

She immediately said, “Why would I make a mistake? Look! The position they mentionell it’s highly coveted! You did well, Severin, you did very well You secured a quota for us and avan got us such a good position!” “Really? Well, we sure are glad to hear that!” Maurice and Judith emiled when they heard that too. Their son had proven his capabilities, and the old lady would surely not look down on him in the future after he helped the Shanahans secure such benefits.

Life After Prison Chapter 228-Most important of all, Severin would gain the Shanahans’ approval and Diane could maintain her position as general manager of the Shanahan Corporation.

“Yes, this location is excellent, and it’ll bring great profits to the Shanahans in the future. However, the initial investment fees may be a bit high!” The old lady was overjoyed when she thought about how such a large area had been given to the Shanahans. Her sole worry was the equally huge investments that would have to be made in the early stages.

To everyone’s surprise, Severin smiled and said, “I didn’t think there’d be different outcomes if there were different colors for the letter’s font. I have another one here!” Severin produced the second letter after he spoke and the font on it was golden too.

“Another one? And they’re both typed in gold font? I’m not seeing things, am I? We were given two spots?!” The old lady’s eyes became radiant in an instant.

She would never have dreamed of getting such a quota!

“Impossible! Is this genuine? How could you get two?!” Stanley was shocked to the core, especially since Charmaine had ignored him when he went to look for her.

By contrast, Severin had secured two spots after meeting the Longhorns, and Stanley could not help but wonder if the quotas in Severin’s hands were a fake. He grabbed the invitation letter in Severin’s hand and looked at it carefully, saying, “It has to be fake. The location given in this quota is just as good and the area is very large too. Why would they give us two spots in a good position? I don’t think any of the second-tier families, or even the first-tier families for that matter, are given such treatment!” The old lady’s smile froze as soon as Stanley said that, and she began to wonder if it could have been a fake that Severin was using just to fool them.

In response, Severin said with a faint smile, “I don’t know if it’s fake, but it was Miss Charmaine who handed it to me. Why don’t you ask her if it’s fake?” When George heard that, he smiled. “Then it has to be the real deal! It can’t have been fake if Miss Charmaine handed it to you!” The old lady looked at Severin and smiled with satisfaction. “You’ve done an excellent job, Severin!” Severin smiled and said, “By the way, Mister Gideon has mentioned that they can give us a thirty percent discount on the registration fee for this second quota, so there’s really nothing for you to worry too much about!” “Thirty percent off?!” The old lady’s eyes widened even more after she heard that and was dumbstruck by what she heard.

“That’s even better!” The old lady smiled. After thinking for a moment, she said to Stanley,” Make a reservation for a VIP room in one of those big hotels’ restaurants. We must celebrate today! With these two spots, our future would be secure, and at the very least, we won’t regress and become merely an ordinary wealthy business family. I believe that we might even stand a chance to become a second-tier family in a few years’ time!” “Okay. I’m going to make that reservation now!” Stanley felt very upset because his initial plan to bring the old lady there was to make a fool out of Severin and Diane. Unfortunately, the tables were turned as Severin ended up being praised as a great hero of the Shanahans while he was resigned to becoming an errand runner.

As Stanley drove the car out of the entrance of Dragon Lake Vista, he gritted his teeth and had a burning look of anger in his eyes.

Life After Prison Chapter 229-That night, the Shanahans went to a grand hotel for a celebration. Naturally, Severin’s family tagged along too. Catherine was beyond elated and she praised Severin’s ability the entire night. She even said that Diane had a good eye for men and had found a good home. Severin merely smiled at those remarks and did not take them too seriously. After all, he had gotten. numb to all sorts of flattery.

The only reason he secured the quotas was for Diane. Stanley had bullied Diane before, and Severin wanted to help Diane get revenge. That would at least warn Stanley not to provoke them anymore.

As Severin looked at the happy smile on Diane’s face, he felt that everything he did was worth it.

Everyone drove back to their own home after dinner.

Diane had drunk a lot of wine that night and her cheeks were a little red. After coaxing Selene to sleep, she stretched her waist and got ready to go to bed too.

However, she stopped in her tracks as she walked past Severin’s room. The thought of how they almost kissed that morning if not for Selene’s interruption made her smile sweetly to herself. She hesitated for a moment, but then immediately returned to her room and shook. her head. “No, no, no, what am I thinking? I can’t have those thoughts!” The next morning, Severin decided to go shopping because he had nothing better to do. However, he did not expect to meet Rufus not long after he left the house.

Rufus had a beautiful woman in his arms at that moment, and as soon as he saw Severin, he smiled coldly and walked over to stand in Severin’s way.

“Rufus?” Severin frowned. After Rufus went home and complained to Manuel, a great number of the Chavezes’ bodyguards were brought to the Shanahans just to cause trouble there.

At that time, he did not want to spill any blood because it was his first time at the Shanahans’ and all the Shanahans’ family members were around. As a result, he was forced to call Larry out of Draco Hall so the Chavezes could leave.

It had never crossed his mind that he would meet that wretched guy again, and judging from the looks of it, Rufus seemed to want to cause trouble again.

Rufus smiled. “You got lucky the last time, brat! Larry only asked you for help because he needed something from you right? I let you off then, but I’m not going to let you off this time!

Severin looked at the bodyguards behind Rufus and could not help but sneer. “Do you honestly think these guys are any match for me?” Rufus laughed at Severin’s remark. “Hahaha! I got beaten by you because the bodyguards I brought were all garbage newbies! The bodyguards around me now aren’t going to be that easy to deal with. They’re all supreme fighters! Six of them! Even a grandmaster would get a hen they see this lineup!” Severin could not help but say, “Six supreme fighters? There’s more to the Chavezes than meets the eye then. If you can get six such individuals to protect you at the same time, then I’m sure your overprotective father really is overprotective after all!” “Hmph. I’ll give you one chance to kneel and lick my shoes. I’ll tell my men to be gentler on you if you do that, but if you refuse, I swear on the Chavez’s name that you’ll lose all your limbs today!” Rufus cocked his head slightly and was confident in the abilities of his subordinates.

He had to admit that the subordinates he brought that day were strong enough for him to be arrogant. Those fighters had no problem going up against dozens of ordinary people on their own, and there were six such people there with him. That alone gave Rufus enough confidence to show dominance in front of Severin.

“Tch. I guess you didn’t get enough of a beating the last time around!” Severin rubbed his hands. “Since you’re so eager to get beat up again, I’ll be happy to grant your wish!”

Life After Prison Chapter 230-“Are you sure you want to fight against my men instead of calling Larry?” Rufus was taken aback for a moment, but he soon smiled coldly at Severin and said, “If you’re not going to call Larry, then I assume it’s probably because his mother has been cured and the he doesn’t need you anymore. You’re not making the call because you know that Larry won’t come even if you called him.” Severin smiled and said, “Why should I bother him with something so unimportant?” “Haha, you’re pretty good at pretending, I’ll give you that. I’m guessing you already know that he’ll ignore you if you call him. Hahaha! Since that’s the case, you guys can go ahead and destroy his manhood. Let’s see if Diane will still love him and be with him if that happens!” Rufus immediately took a step back and waved his hand to signal for his subordinates to go forth.

“Yes, sir!” The six senior men rubbed their palms and looked at Severin playfully.

They had been wanting to meet Severin ever since they learned from Rufus that he was good. at fighting, though they did not expect that the opportunity would come so quickly and they could encounter the man so soon.

“Hehe, now this is interesting!” Severin chuckled fearlessly as he faced the six people.

All of a sudden, his eyes narrowed slightly and a cold glimmer appeared. His body flickered instantly and he left an afterimage at the place he stood.

“Be careful!” One of the guys was startled and immediately yelled to his comrades when he saw Severin disappear in the blink of an eye. Unfortunately, his warning came a little too late. as a fist had already landed on his chest before he even had the opportunity to raise his guard. Several dull thuds sounded in quick succession, and it only took a few seconds for him to make the six so-called ‘highly- skilled’ people lay on the ground.

“Graah!” All six screamed in pain, for their ribs had been broken and all of them were vomiting blood. Panic could be seen on their faces, and some were so afraid of Severin killing them that they covered their chests and propped themselves on their elbows while moving back in a hurry. Severin was like a monster when they looked into his eyes.

“No! This is impossible! Aren’t you all supreme fighters? Didn’t you say that you had no problem going up solo against several dozen men? Are you guys another bunch of useless trash?” As Rufus watched Severin take slow steps toward him, he was so frightened that cold. beads of sweat began to form on his forehead and his legs were trembling incessantly beyond.

his control.

“Destroy my manhood, was it?” Severin grinned, looked at Rufus, and said, “I think it’s more appropriate for me to destroy your manhood right now?” “I dare you!” Although Rufus was frightened, he remembered his identity as a Chavez and gained a little more confidence. “I’m the Chavezes’ son, and the Chavezes are a second-tier family! My father will come for you if you dare to destroy my manhood!” think your “Haha!” Severin laughed out loud when he heard Rufus threatening him. “Do you father can do anything to me? Hell, even your grandfather won’t be able to help you! I’ll have There were four guardians in his family and they had spent enormous amounts of money to hire those guardians. Even he did not have the power to instruct them to do anything.

The guardians were in charge of the safety of his family. In other words, they would only take action when his family was in a life-or-death situation. As a matter of fact, his father had much respect for the guardians and he talked to them in an extremely cautious and polite manner.

The point was Rufus never imagined Severin was such a strong person.

“Mister Rufus, I suggest you should not cross Severin again in the future. You’re going to have a lot of trouble if you offend a grandmaster,” an older bodyguard said after giving much thought.

Rufus’s mouth twitched and said angrily, “F*ck him! I licked his shoes just now! When was I ever humiliated before? How could I let this pass?” He frowned and said, “It seems like I need to come out with a new plan. None of you are permitted to tell anyone about what just happened! I have no idea how to show my face around if other people find out about it!” “Yes, Mister Rufus!” The six bodyguards responded together.

Yet, they did not know there were two men hiding in the corner and saw everything that happened. Both of them got the scare of their lives.

Life After Prison Chapter 231-Once that was said, Severin raised his leg and aimed it at a part of Rufus’ body.

Rufus saw it and was intimidated by the action. His legs became wobbly and ended up dropping to the ground like he was kneeling. “Severin, I was wrong! I won’t do it ever again. Please forgive me. I can slap myself. Please don’t emasculate him. I don’t want to lose my manhood!” The woman he was hugging had long hidden far away from him and was shivering in fear.

“Haha, slap yourself? I’m not interested in seeing you slap yourself now,” Severin scoffed and said, “Just now you wanted me to kneel down and licked your shoes, right? I think you can try that!” “I’ll lick it, I’ll lick it!” Rufus was really scared. In his mind, he reckoned Severin was a daredevil who dared to do anything. A beggar could never be bankrupted. If Severin did something to him, it was still not worth it if his father sent someone to kill Severin after that. After all, he was a rich kid. It was better to lose the saddle than the horse. Severin’s life would not make it up if he was emasculated by Severin.

Without any hesitation, he immediately licked Severin’s shoes a few times.

It totally disgusted Severin to see Rufus was such a loser. He took two steps back and said disgustingly, “Forget about it! I can’t even bear to look at how you look now. What a loser. Do you even know your place when you try to steal my woman away from me? In your dream! Do you think you deserve to have Diane?” Straight after that, Severin just walked away without looking back. Rufus fell to the floor helplessly and wiped away the sweat on his forehead.

It took him a while to get up. The first thing he did was reprimand those bodyguards who were still in pain. “Who told me you guys are very strong? Supreme fighters or something like that! F*ck you guys! Are you ashamed that six of you can’t defeat one guy?” “Mister Rufus, it’s not that we are not strong. But that guy is too strong. Based on his fighting skill, he must have attained the grandmaster level. I believe he is way past level one. Maybe he’s a level three or a level four grandmaster!” One of the bodyguards tried to explain the situation.

“What the hell do you mean level three or level four? I don’t know anything about that!” It infuriated Rufus very much after what just happened. To think he was the young master from a second-tier upper- class family and he was badly humiliated.

From his point of view, the reason that caused the humiliation was that those bodyguards were useless. He had no idea or knowledge of whether Severin was a grandmaster or a fighter. Another bodyguard tried to explain further, “Mister Rufus, grandmaster is a powerful presence. There are probably just a handful of grandmasters in this city. The guardians in the family just reach the grandmaster’s level.” inally that powerful?” Rufus frowned.

There were four guardians in his family and they had spent enormous amounts of money to hire those guardians. Even he did not have the power to instruct them to do anything.

The guardians were in charge of the safety of his family. In other words, they would only take action when his family was in a life-or-death situation. As a matter of fact, his father had much respect for the guardians and he talked to them in an extremely cautious and polite.

manner.

The point was Rufus never imagined Severin was such a strong person.

“Mister Rufus, I suggest you should not cross Severin again in the future. You’re going to have a lot of trouble if you offend a grandmaster,” an older bodyguard said after giving much thought.

Rufus’s mouth twitched and said angrily, “F*ck him! I licked his shoes just now! When was ! ever humiliated before? How could I let this pass?” He frowned and said, “It seems like I need to come out with a new plan. None of you are permitted to tell anyone about what just happened! I have no idea how to show my face around if other people find out about it!” “Yes, Mister Rufus!” The six bodyguards responded together.

Yet, they did not know there were two men hiding in the corner and saw everything that happened. Both of them got the scare of their lives.

Life After Prison Chapter 232-One of the men swallowed his saliva and said, “What should we do? Mister Edward gave us fifteen thousand dollars each to kill Severin. Damn it! I think that six people are on the captain. level in the Chavezes. They are all mean people but they still can’t defeat Severin. This is a suicide mission if both of us try to kill Severin!” Previously, Edward had scammed seven-hundred-and-fifty-thousand dollars from Easton and Jada for hiring two star assassins to kill Severin. When he went back home, he thought about it and decided to give fifteen thousand dollars each to two bodyguards that were good at fighting. He commanded them to kill Severin and kept the rest of the money to himself.

That meant he gained seven-hundred-and-twenty-thousand dollars from the deal and even screwed Lucy too. He was very pleased with himself, especially reminiscing about Lucy’s sexy body.

It is just that he would never think the two bodyguards he sent had witnessed the entire scene just now.

“Come on, let’s go back. F*ck. This deal is not worth it. We shouldn’t risk our lives for fifteen thousand dollars!” The other man gritted his teeth.

Not long later, they were back in Horsefield’s residence.

“How was it? Did you two get it done?” Edward was drinking tea when he saw the two bodyguards return.

The two bodyguards were actually mid-stage fighters.

“Mister Edward, we can’t do it. Severin is too powerful!” One of them said with a gloomy face.

“Did you guys try?” Edward frowned and sat upright while placing the teacup on the stone table beside him.

“No. But Mister Rufus did try. He brought six bodyguards with him and they attacked Severin together. Six of them were defeated by Severin. None of them is Severin’s opponent!” The bodyguard said.

The second bodyguard continued, “Yeah! In the end, Severin threatened Mister Rufus and Mister Rufus had to kneel down to lick Severin’s shoes.” “What?” Edward gasped after hearing that. “Six bodyguards and they are not his opponents? I think I have underestimated Severin’s ability. So I still have to hire an assassin. They are the professionals in this and are more reliable!” “Yes, yes, yes. Mister Edward, you should hire an assassin. And no one is going to know you were the one who hired them. We are not professional assassins!” The bodyguards quickly agreed.

Edward reconsidered and asked, “How much did you say it cost to hire a two stars assassin?” “A-hundred-and-fifty dollars!” The bodyguard replied immediately.

Obviously, he was the one who had contact with the killer organization.

Edward nodded. “Fine. You’re in charge of this. I’ll transfer the money to you later. As for the you don’t have to return it to me. Go and buy some alcohol for yourself.

“Thank you, Mister Edward!” The two bodyguards were surprised to hear that.

After the two bodyguards left, Easton and Lucy came to visit Edward.

“Mister Easton, what brings you here today?” He looked at Lucy and swallowed his saliva while admiring Lucy’s sexy legs.

At that time, Easton did not know Edward had screwed his wife. He smiled and asked, “Mister Edward, you said you were going to hire an assassin to kill Severin. What’s the process?”

Life After Prison Chapter 233-Edward heard the question and sneered coldly. “What’s with the rush? You know I hate Severin too, right? If he is not dead, Diane will never become my woman.” After that, he looked at the chairs beside him and said, “Sit and we can talk more. Don’t worry. I’ve hired the assassin. I think Severin is going to be dead in two or three days.” “Is it? That’s wonderful!” Easton was relieved after hearing that. The grudge he had with Severin was not going to disappear if Severin continued to live.

Yesterday, he and Lucy went to the hospital for a check-up. Unfortunately, the doctor could not find anything wrong with his brother. All the reports indicated his body was fine.

However, his body just would not react to any woman. He felt so helpless and infuriated. Especially since he could not do anything when Lucy was sleeping beside him every day.

There was a hunch telling him Severin was the one who caused this to him. Yet, it was impossible for him to ask Severin to cure him. Not when Severin also wanted to kill him badly and Severin had not done it because Severin wanted to torment him first.

“Hey, I got some fine wine in the house. What about when we drink it?” Edward invited.

He got an idea in his head while he was secretly admiring Lucy’s sexy long legs.

“Sure. It’s my honor to drink together with you!” Easton accepted the invitation with sparkly eyes.

Easton’s family was not even considered a third-tier upper-class family. If he could curry favor with Edward, there could be a chance Edward and his family could spare some chances for his family in the future. Once his family was on the rising, there was a chance his family could enter the world of the upper-class family.

On the other hand, Lucy looked worried. Quickly enough, three of them went to a living room on the second floor. They were served with a few side dishes to go with the wine.

“How is it? Not bad, right?” Edward asked Easton cheerfully.

“Yeah. It’s good. It’s not every day that I can drink such nice wine!” Easton chuckled. “I will feel at ease once Severin is dead. I cursed him every time I saw him. He ruined my wedding and made a fool of my family. My parents feel so ashamed every time they need to go out.” He paused a while before continuing, “They even asked me to stop causing trouble to Severin because they were scared knowing Severin is on good terms with the Longhorns. F*ck! How the hell am I going to let it pass so easily? I don’t care. I must have him killed!” “Haha! Let’s not talk about that. You need to trust how good those assassins are!” Edward laughed and said, “Come on, you have to drink more today. Think of it as a pre-celebration for success!” Edward continued to pour more wine for Easton. After a while, Easton had drunk more than he should have. Lucy was just taking small sips occasionally.

With the help of the wine, Easton gathered his courage. “Mister Edward, I heard you have a project on the north side. Coincidentally, my family is into the air-ventilation business. I Lyon hearing that, Edward chocked “Oh, that project. A lot of people want in on it. Bet your family is we the best in the industry” su Be changed his tone and said “hot I’m the one in charge of this pengert I mean there won’t be a big pestilen if your family wishes to take part in the air ventilation part of the project I can pward the prect to you But you should at least hottom up three glasses in one go to those your siterity right “Sure I’ll do that Thank you very much Although Easton was getting dry, we she was dizzy, going to earn a lot if he read get his hand with the project. It was worth getting drank for it “Easton, you shouldn’t drink anymore! You’ll get drunk!”

Life After Prison Chapter 234-Lucy knew something was wrong and tried to persuade Easton. It was obvious Edward was trying to make Easton drunk.

“What the hell do you know? This is between us men. Don’t interfere!” Easton reprimanded.

He was not going to listen to Lucy after alcohol had taken over his mind. Lucy was so mad but there was nothing she could do.

“Mister Edward, you have to remember what you said just now. “Thinking about the advantage his family could get, he bottomed up three glasses in one go.

After that, he could not hold it in anymore and went to the toilet to vomit. When he returned, he was looking very drunk.

“Don’t worry, Mister Easton. I will have my man send you guys back later!” Edward smiled and realized Easton had his head resting on the table.

After a while, he used his hand to push Easton and discovered Easton had fallen asleep.

“Mister Edward, Umm…where’s your bodyguard? Can you please send two men over to help carry Easton? We should get going. Sigh! He has drank too much. I’m sorry for causing trouble to you!” Lucy smiled awkwardly and wished to leave this place immediately.

5 Edward smiled faintly. “Hey, what’s the rush? Have you already forgotten how crazy it was the other day? Hehe, I have been missing you. Come on. Let’s go to my room!” “No! Mister Edward, I can’t!” Lucy was scared.

She got on her feet and started to beg for mercy softly. “Mister Edward, it’s different today. We were asking you for help to kill Severin so I…” “What’s the difference?” Edward came over and grabbed Lucy’s wrist.

He strode to this room and pulled Lucy together with him while he threatened, “Think about it. If you sleep with me together, I will give the project to Easton. He’s going to earn a hell lot of money from that. Do you think I’m just going to give it to him without getting any return? You better consider it wisely.” Lucy thought about the money and how useless Easton was. He even yelled at her just now. She made a tough decision and nodded. “Alright. But you have to hurry. I don’t want Easton to find out when he wakes up.” “Why are you so scared? He’s not going to wake up after drinking so much. Don’t worry!” Edward replied.

After that, he brought Lucy into the room. Before long, Lucy was moaning softly in the room. Easton continued to sleep on the table. Half an hour later, he was thirsty so he woke up to get some water. His head was in so much pain that it felt like it was going to explode. He rubbed his head and looked around him to discover Lucy and Edward were not around. With a frown, he heard some noises from the room. He walked to the room and heard Lucy’s voice. He grasped his fist tightly and gritted his teeth. The devil in him had asked him to kick open the room and killed Lucy.

Yet, he backed down like a chicken because he knew Edward was inside. Without a choice, he walked back to the table and continued to sleep. Luckily his head was feeling heavy and he managed to fall asleep quickly.

Life After Prison Chapter 235-When Easton woke up the second time, it was two hours later.

Recalling back what happened, he was so enraged that he wanted to kill Lucy.

‘F*ck that woman. I know she’s not a reliable person. How dare she cheat on me?’ It was definitely not something Easton could let go of easily.

Moreover, he connected everything and understood why Edward kept on asking him to drink. All the while, Edward’s motive was to make him drunk and sleep with his woman.

Despite that, he knew there was nothing he could do even if he went downstairs. It was not like he had the ability to kill Edward. As he suppressed his anger, he went downstairs.

When he was walking down, he saw Edward and Lucy chatting happily in the garden.

“Honey, you wake up! Mister Edward let you rest a while seeing how drunk you are. But we didn’t know you were going to sleep for so long!” Lucy smiled at Easton when she saw him coming down.

She felt guilty so she spoke so softly to Easton.

However, Easton did not feel that way when he heard it. He smiled faintly. “I’m very bad at drinking. I feel so embarrassed for getting drunk after just a couple of drinks.” He did not forget to remind Edward, “Mister Edward, is the promise you made to me just now still count?” Edward smiled. “I’m a man of my word. Don’t worry about that.” “Then that’s a deal. Mister Edward, we shouldn’t disturb you anymore. We shall get going,” Easton replied.

Edward also stood up and smiled. “No worries. We are friends and you guys are not disturbing me. Welcome to come and drink with me again when you are free.” Easton’s mouth twitched. ‘F*ck him for asking us to come more often!” “Don’t worry. We’ll visit when we are free!” Easton smiled.

Subsequently, he quickly left with Lucy by driving away. Edward looked at Lucy’s back as they drove away and licked his lip. After driving for a while, Easton stopped the car on the roadside.

Lucy frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? Why are we stopping?” Easton turned his body to face Lucy and smiled. “Dearest, I know I’m not myself lately. But you can’t blame me, right? Severin was the one who did this to my body. Otherwise, this is not who I am.” Lucy was starting to feel scared when Easton looked straight into her eyes. She tried to look away and said, “1-I don’t know what you are talking about “Siap!” Easton could not endure it anymore and slapped Eney. “I’m going to fix my body sooner or later! It was just a couple of days and you can’t hold yourself anymore? Do you seriously think I don’t know you are cheating on me? Do you think you can fool me so easily?”

Life After Prison Chapter 236-Lucy was so scared that her face turned pale. With her gritted teeth, she replied, “Easton, what are you talking about? When did I cheat on you? Stop accusing me without any evidence!” “Fck you!” Easton was so engulfed that he wanted to strangle Lucy. “I’m accusing you? Do you know I don’t know what you did with Mister Edward when I was drunk? I was just giving you some dignity! You btch!” Lucy was stunned. After she and Edward were done, they came out and saw Easton was still sound asleep. Thus, they presumed he did not know anything. He actually knew it!

Easton smiled coldly when Lucy remained silent. “Luckily Severin was there to ruin our wedding. I don’t think we need to have another wedding. You are not my wife yet because we have not registered. It’s game over now. A woman like you does not deserve to be my woman and my wife!” Lucy panicked and grabbed Easton. “Honey, listen to me. It’s not what you think.” “F*ck off! It’s not what I think? Then what is it?” Easton was very disappointed. He sneered, “I should have known. In the first place, you left Severin because of money and the ticket to an extravagant life. Naturally, you are going to leave me for money again.” At this point, he paused and continued to mock himself. ” Edward Horsefield is from a second -tier upper-class family and he’s the only son in the family. Do you think he will like you? Do you think he will marry you? In your dream! He’s a lustful playboy! He’s just playing with you. The woman he likes is Diane. Do you think it’s you?” At that moment, a wrongful feeling crept up Lucy’s heart.” Easton, you jerk! You can’t say that about me! Do you think I wanted to sleep with him? If you don’t get drunk, Edward will not threaten me! He said if I don’t agree, he won’t give the project to you! He said you can earn a hell lot of money from that project. Think about it! I was sacrificing myself for our future!” Tears started to fall out from her eyes and she cried loudly. Easton was speechless. At first, he thought Lucy seduced Edward because he was deprived of his manhood. He thought Lucy was looking for a richer man in exchange for a lavish lifestyle. It never struck him that Edward was the one who threatened his woman.

Easton’s heart went soft seeing how badly Lucy cried. “I’m sorry. I-I don’t know he threatened you. I thought you wanted to sleep with him!” “I bet everything I got to marry you and you think I’m that kind of woman? Do you know I was doing it so we have a better future?” Lucy sobbed.

“Alright, alright. Don’t cry. I’ll be careful next time and never give you two the chance to be alone!” Easton said with his gritted teeth, “Sh*t! Edward Horsefield is an *sshole! He better not let me get anything on him. Or else, I’m going to kill him!” “Come on. Let’s go shopping. I’ll buy a bag for you. Honey, I’m sorry for accusing you,” Easton tried to grovel at Lucy when Lucy continued to cry.

Knowing she was still going to be Easton’s wife, she felt delighted in her heart. She wiped away her tears and said, ” Hmph! You’re the one who wants to buy me a bag. I want the limited edition!” “Don’t worry. I’m going to buy it for you!” Easton said. “Next, all we have to wait for is Severin being found dead on the street!” Lucy thought about it and frowned. “Honey. Didn’t you say Severin was the one who did this to your body? What if there’s no cure after he dies? What if he poisoned you and he’s the only one with the antidote?” “I don’t believe no one else in this world can fix my body other than him!” A cynical feeling filled up Easton’s eyes. “Besides, we are nemesis. He’s not going to fix me even if I go to look for him. It’s just going to embarrass me even more if I go look for him and that’s not what I want!”

Life After Prison Chapter 237-There was an underground force called Blood-Drinker Gang in Riverson.

A man and a woman were standing in front of a middle-aged man and a couple of elders.

“How is it? Did something happen in Brookbourn? What’s the result of the investigation?” The person asking the question was an elder. He was frowning and his face looked bad.

The last time they had collaborated with Cedar Gang by assigning seven elite fighters to help destroy Draco Hall. They were promised a share of Draco Hall’s property.

The Blood-Drinker Gang wanted to use this as an opportunity to infiltrate their influence into Brookbourn. And finally, overtook the underground force and made Brookbourn their territory.

Unluckily, they lost contact with the seven people after a while. Realizing something was wrong, they sent the male and female over to investigate.

The man who went to investigate frowned. “Something went wrong. Those seven people are dead. Monte and Kevin from Cedar Gang are dead too. Draco Hall had taken over Cedar Gang and became the strongest gang in the underground force.

“What?” The Gang Leader of Blood-Drinker Gang, Tharan Xerri, was dumbstruck. He was sitting in the middle and now stood up after hearing it.

“Wasn’t everything all planned out accordingly? So many strong fighters going against Larry Dune and Blade and they didn’t manage to kill them? Even if the opponents knew about the poison, there were so many people surrounding them. How did that go wrong?” Thanran asked.

This time, the woman was the one who explained. “Gang Leader, let me answer that question. Based on our investigation, there was one person who was among Larry, Blade, and the rest of their subordinates!” “One person? Are you saying the plan failed because of that one person?” The Gang Leader frowned and looked serious.

The woman nodded. “Yes, this is what we suspect. Our investigation led us to this man and his name is Severin Feuillet. He was just released from jail not long ago. There was no information that he had any ability and was sent to jail because of something. After he was released, he went to ruin. his love enemy’s wedding once. But the Longhorns, a first-tier upper-class family, helped him that time!” “The longhorns helped him?” Tharan was surprised and gave it a thought. “It seems like there’s something special about this guy!” The woman nodded. “Dylan and I presumed he is a grandmaster. And I think he’s a high-level grandmaster too. Otherwise, it makes no sense he could easily help Draco Hall win the fight!” Tharan’s face became sullen as he looked over to the elders and asked, “Elders, what do you guys think? What should we do next?” “In the beginning, we were hoping to destroy Draco Hall together with the Cedar Gang. Now Draco Hall actually got more powerful. If we go straight head-to-head with Draco Hall, nothing good would come out of it!” an elder said after much consideration.

The elder expressed his opinion too. “I think we don’t have to be in a hurry to fight against Draco Hall. We can go after that guy, Severin first. He was the one who ruined our plan in the first place!”

Life After Prison Chapter 238-Tharan raised his brow, “Second Elder, we’re not going to get anything even if we kill Severin. The only way to get any property or money from this is if we attack Draco Hall. Not to mention, we need to send someone stronger over because the person we go after is a grandmaster.” The Second Elder smiled mysteriously. “Think about it again. Do we even need to worry about Draco Hall now? After Draco Hall took over Cedar Gang’s territory, they would become a huge threat to Brookbourn Mansion. Not to mention, Brookbourn Mansion is not very strong. Currently, Draco Hall is almost at the same level as Brookbourn Mansion. Do you think Brookbourn Mansion is going to let them continue?” The Great Elder agreed with it. “Yes, yes, yes. Not just Brookbourn Mansion. I don’t think Emerald Cloud Gang is just going to sit at the side and wait. The Second Elder is right. We don’t have to do anything. Just let them fight!” The Second Elder giggled and nodded. “The best situation is when both sides lose. We should send someone over to monitor the situation. If both sides really lose, then we could use that opportunity to achieve our goal.” Tharan thought of it but still had a little hesitation. “It sounds like a good plan. But if we really use that opportunity to be the last winner, I don’t think those families are going to support us in the future. We have to take into consideration that our main base is here in Riverson and surely they are going to have more opinions about it.” The Second Elder explained, “I don’t mean destroying both parties when they lose. We can lend a helping hand to a side. and have them promise us many good benefits. I’m sure they have no choice but to accept the offer. Then they can gradually transfer the money to us. I’m sure that’s the best option we have.” Tharan’s eyes sparkled. “Good job, Second Elder. We are lucky to have you as our strategist. Don’t worry. If your plan goes according to plan, I’m going to give you a million dollars as a reward!” The other elders were very jealous upon hearing it.

“Thank you, Mister Tharan!” Second Elder was pleased to hear that. “Blood-Drinker Gang is very strong. I believe we will be able to take over the territory in Brookbourn in no time!” Tharan thought about it and frowned. “Severin did ruin our plan and we lost seven elite fighters because of him. We should have killed him. But who should we send?” Fifth Elder heard that and was afraid other people might steal the opportunity away from him. “Me! Mister Tharan, I can go together with my disciples. Those two disciples are doing quite. well now and it’s about time to let them gain some experiences.” “Haha. Sure thing. I’m pleased and happy that you are willing.

Life After Prison Chapter 239-to bring your disciples over there yourself!” Tharan laughed.

Fifth Elder, Frankie Zona, was a level four grandmaster and his disciples were level two grandmasters. Surely, they could get the job done if the three of them were willing to go.

“Don’t worry. It’s my honor to be able to contribute my service to the gang. Besides, I haven’t visited Brookbourn for a long time. This can also be a holiday for me,” Frankie said.

The other elders despised him in their hearts. ‘This guy is getting more and more talented with kissing the gang leader’s ass. I’m sure he’s doing it for the reward.’ As expected, Tharan smiled, “Don’t worry. Go, relax, and have fun. If you can kill Severin, you can claim all expenses and also a reward of seven-hundred-and-fifty-thousand dollars.” “Thank you, Mister Tharan. Don’t worry. We are not going to disappoint you!” Frankie was thrilled to hear that.

‘Luckily I voiced out first. The other elders are going to take this job if I was a second late,’ he thought.

At this time, Frankie had returned to his villa with a great big smile on his face.

A man and a woman walked out and saw how happy their master was. “Master, why are you so happy?” “Someone has offended us. Mister Tharan is sending us out on a mission. Both of you can come together. This is the chance for you to gain experience and also a holiday too,” Frankie said happily.

“Seriously? Hehe, this is amazing!” The young man and woman were very happy to hear that.

“But our opponent is also a grandmaster. I don’t know if he is a level one or level two grandmaster. You two can try it out first. If he is too strong for you guys, I will step in.” Frankie smiled and continued, “Oh, the gang leader said we’re allowed to play and eat everything that we want. As long as the mission is completed, all the fees are claimable!” “Huh? Free travel and all expenses paid? Lucky us!” The young woman’s eye twinkled upon hearing that.

“Hehe. That’s amazing!” The young man smiled evilly while touching his chin.

“Go get ready. We are going to leave tomorrow morning. It’s going to be lunchtime when we reach Brookbourn. Then we can enjoy ourselves for a few days before we go ahead with the mission,” Frankie thought about it and told his disciples about his plan.

At this moment, Severin was shopping relaxingly.

Suddenly, he was there to witness a young lady being robbed by two men when she was about to get into a Porsche.

“Help! Help me!” Obviously, the young lady was scared and yelled out for help.

The two men grabbed her bag and ran toward where Severin was. Without a doubt, they were ready to run into an alley.

Severin saw it and quickly stopped the robbers. “Give it back!” “F*ck you!” One of the robbers took out a dagger when Severin was stopping them. He aimed the dagger at Severin and was going to stab it into Severin’s body.

“Ah! Be careful!” The young lady was very scared and yet, she felt so speechless.

This was the only day she did not have her bodyguard following her. Yet, so coincidentally, it was the day she got robbed. She had no idea how to describe how helpless she felt now.

“Punch, punch!” A second later, she received another shock. The two robbers were instantly put down by Severin. Both of them grunted in pain for a while before managing to stand out and ran away without the bag.

The young and beautiful lady ran over and smiled at Severin. Hi, you’re so strong. Thank you for helping me!” Severin picked up the bag and passed it to the young lady. “I was just coincidentally here. You’re lucky to have me here.” The young lady looked young. She was probably just in her early twenties. Looking very cute when she smiled. Although she was quite tiny, her bust was not tiny. Creating a double illusion that she was a cute girl with a sexy body. As a matter of fact, people fancied this type of woman.

However, not Severin. He did not take a second look. After giving back the bag, he was ready to leave.

Sheila was dumbstruck and speechless. Every time she went shopping, men would be staring at her when they saw her appearance. Many rich kids were willing to queue up just to date her.

Yet, this man’s eyes looked so plain and undisturbed. As if he had no interest in her at all.

Sheila went after Severin and said, “Hey, hey! Do you know who I am? Wait, don’t go!” “Lady, I only rescued you because I was there. I’ve given you back your bag. You should go home now!”

Life After Prison Chapter 240-Severin stopped and gave Sheila an annoying look. Sheila was so angry that she said angrily while putting her hands on her waist. “My name is Sheila Ballard!” From where she sees it, Severin was going to get a shock when he heard her name. Because she was a person of great status.

Severin looked at her and said faintly, “Sheila Ballard? So what? What’s so special about your name?”.

“I…” Sheila was speechless. She did not understand why Severin did not know her after she had told him her name. To make it worse, Severin still dared to tease her. This was the first time she encountered this type of situation.

When Severin was leaving, Sheila ran and followed him to stop him again.

“Hey, is there anything I can help you with?” Severin was at a loss for words.

He was just being kind to lend a hand just now. He never expected the young lady to keep bothering him.

Sheila smiled. “I don’t like to owe favors to other people. So I must repay you!” Severin joked. “Don’t tell me you are going to repay me by marrying me. Sorry, I have a wife and my daughter is already four years old.” “I…” Sheila was once again speechless. “No! Hmph! Take this!

She opened her bag and took out roughly around nine thousand dollars of cash and passed it to Severin. “Here is your reward for getting my bag back.” From where she stands, there was no way Severin would reject the money.

However, Severin smiled. “I don’t want it. I already told you, I was just doing a good deed. If I did it for the money, I won’t help you.” This was the first time Sheila met such a special person and she was dumbstruck. She put the cash back into her bag and said, “You’re an interesting person. If that’s the case, do you need a job? You can be my bodyguard. I think you’re quite strong. Why don’t you be my bodyguard? I can pay you a high salary.” “Bodyguard? No thanks. I have things to do in a few days,” Severing thought about it and rejected the offer.

“High salary! Seventy-five thousand dollars a month!” Sheila widened her eyes to allure Severin.

“No, no!” Severin replied.

“A-hundred-and-fifty-thousand dollars!” “Three hundred thousand dollars!” No matter how high Sheila offered, Severin was not tempted. In the end, she gave up. “If that’s the case, let me treat you to lunch. I don’t want to owe any favors.” Severin was shocked and amazed to meet such a persistent person. He looked around and pointed at a cafe. “Ok. You can buy me a cup of coffee.” “What?” Sheila did not know what to feel. Her gut feeling was telling her this guy she was looking at must be a very interesting guy.

“Alright, I’ll buy a cup of coffee for you!” She smiled and went over to the cafe.

Later, she came back with two cups of coffee and passed one to Severin.

Severin stretched his hand out to touch the other coffee in Sheila’s hand and reminded her, “Hey, you can’t drink cold beverages. You’re about to have your period.”
