Ch. 291: .300

Life After Prison Chapter 291-“Hey, Miss, are-are you alright?” Stanley’s eyeballs nearly popped out when he realized how sexy the woman was. He could not help and kept swallowing his saliva. She had applied red lipstick to her lip. Her eyes were alluring and her legs were long and sexy. The bodycon dress had done a good job emphasizing how sexy and curvy her body was. “What the hell were you thinking? Didn’t you see I was crossing the street?” The woman raised her head and looked at Severin painfully. She complained, “What are you waiting for? Come help me get up and send me to the hospital!” Severin was dumbstruck. The normal procedure when someone faked an accident, she would ask for money. Why was this woman asking him to send her to the hospital?

She was not hurt and she was not faking an accident to ask for money. There was only one possibility left and Severin thought of it. This woman was an assassin. One that was hired to kill him.

He was convinced of that when the woman was asking him to help her get up. He could be an easy target for the assassin if he went over to help the woman without putting his guard up. Normally speaking, the assassin could easily kill the person if the person was not Severin.

Severin looked at Stanley who was drooling vehemently and said, “Hey, Stanley, what are you waiting for? Go help her!” “Yes, yes, yes. Let me help you!” Stanley was thrilled. He extended his hand out to grab the woman’s far arm from him with the intention to help her to get up while taking the chance to hug her.

“No! He was the one driving and he nearly hit me. I want him to come help me!” The sexy woman refused to get up and remained on the road. She was cringing like a baby.

Other men would have gone over to help her if they saw it but not Severin. He asked, “Isn’t it the same as whoever goes to help you? Let this man helps you. I don’t see any problem with that.” Severin remained standing by the side and refused to go over to give the woman a chance. Stanley continued to hug the woman and enjoyed her body fragrant. As he tried to pull the woman up, he deliberately touched the woman’s breast once.

“You…” The four-stars assassin gritted her teeth angrily. She looked back and gave Stanley a cold glare.

“Oh! I’m sorry. It was an accident. Come on, let’s get up. We are bringing you to the hospital!” Stanley explained and continued to help the woman.

Without a choice, the assassin pretended to get up and let Stanley help her to the car.

“I want to sit in the back!” the woman said as Stanley helped her with her walking.

Soon, they were in front of Severin. When she was close to him, she suddenly drew out a dagger she had prepared on the inner side of her thigh and stabbed it at Severin.

“Ahh!” Stanley shouted out loud when the dagger passed by his chest.

The woman used another hand to push Stanley away and Stanley fell down. The dagger was getting closer to Severin’s chest.

“Haha!”

Life After Prison Chapter 292-A second later, the dagger was about an inch away from Severin’s chest and that was it. Severin had grabbed her wrist tightly.

He smiled. “Babe, you’re a spicy one. At least I thought you are going to make a move when you are in the car.” The assassin went by the nickname, Black Rose. She was shocked because based on her speed and the surprised attack, her target managed to grab her wrist. She wondered if her motive was exposed earlier.

“Ahh!” She yelled out and applied more force in an attempt to move further. Unfortunately, Severin’s hand was strong like a clamp that clamped tightly on her wrist. It was so strong that she was unable to match.

“Kick!” Severin raised his knee and struck with his knee until Black Rose flew away. She flew several feet away before she fell to the ground. The dagger also dropped to the ground. What followed was a mouthful of blood from her mouth.

“No! That’s impossible. Why are you so strong?” Black Rose was also a fighter that had reached the grandmaster rank. Her eyes were filled with terror as she looked at Severin.

1 Severin approached her slowly. “Yes, your body is really very alluring. You’re good at acting too. But too bad, I’m a miracle doctor. I can tell your leg is not sprained with just one look. Otherwise, I would believe you are really in pain.” Black Rose’s mouth twitched a few times. It never occurred to her that her target was someone who had knowledge of medicine. The employer never mentioned this point to her. She smacked the ground and leaped out in the air to stand up. As she gripped her hands tightly into fists, she started to attack Severing with her punches.

Yet, Severin managed to kick Black Rose away with just one kick. She did not even have the chance to avoid the kick. It just showed how fast Severin was.

“Pftt!” Once again, Black Rose vomited a mouthful of blood again. This time she felt like her organs were dislocated. She sustained a severe injury and did not have the energy to fight back anymore.

When Severin approached her, she bit her red lips and said, “Can you let me go if I accompany you and give you a splendid night tonight? What do you think?” Severin squatted down and smirked. He reached for her neck and choked it. “Do you think I will believe an assassin? Hehe. Do you think you can use your beauty to lower my guard? You’ve underestimated me!” After that, he applied slightly more force and killed her. When he returned to the front of the car, he discovered Stanley was limping on the ground with sweat over his forehead. His mouth twitched when he saw Stanley’s pants. “Mister Stanley, how useless are you? Do you have to wet yourself? So embarrassing. Weren’t you very happy when you were hugging her?” 1-I nearly lost my life just now. The dagger passed by me just now!” Stanley wiped away his sweat and said with fear.

Severin could not bother to care about Stanley’s feelings and went back into the car. “My car is still new and your pants are wet. I’m not going to send you back. Find a way to go back yourself. I’m going now. I’ll contact you after I book a table at the bar!” After that, he drove away.

Several while later, Stanley stood up with wobbly legs. He walked to the assassin and looked at her sexy body. He lamented, “She’s so beautiful. What a waste.

Severin drove straight back home. However, the person he saw first when he was at the villa had him frowning vehemently.

Life After Prison Chapter 293-“Sigh. Why is he not back yet? Argh, it’s so annoying!” The person sighed and complained.

When she turned around, she saw Severin. Her eyes sparkled. “Ah! Yes! Handsome, you’re back!” Sheila ran over with hopeful eyes.

“Miss Sheila, why are you here?” Severin smiled embarrassingly because he never expected Sheila to find where he stayed so soon.

“I come to look for you and play with you. I mean we’re friends, right? It’s not too over for me to come find my friend right?” Sheila giggled.

Severin was at a loss for words. “It’s not over but I’m not a fun person. I’m a very boring guy. So you have found the wrong person to play with!” Sheila’s bodyguard took a step forward and said coldly, “Mister Severin, Miss Sheila came here at nine in the morning. Your parent said you have gone out so she has been waiting here for you since then!” At that moment, Judith came out from the villa when she saw Severin had come back. “Severin, Miss Sheila was here since morning. She has bought many presents for me and your dad. Expensive presents and she insisted to give them to us!” Severin smiled bitterly. “Miss Sheila, you’re too kind. It’s unnecessary for you to buy such expensive presents when you come to visit.” Sheila did not care. “Hey, isn’t that what I should do? I don’t think it’s a good idea to come to visit for the first time with empty hands.” Judith walked over and said, “Severin, have you treated Miss Robin’s grandmother?” Severin nodded, “Yes, Mom. She’s fine now. Mister Harvin insisted on paying me 150,000,000 dollars for the treatment. I told him I don’t want it but he wasn’t happy about it. So I have no choice and accepted it.” “W-what? A-hundred-and-fifty-million dollars! Judith doubted her ears were fooling with her when she heard the amount. After a while, she swallowed her saliva and asked again, “That’s impossible. Why won’t he pay you a-hundred-and-fifty-million dollars for treating a migraine?” Sheila did not say anything. She frowned and felt the head of the Zelankos was such a generous person and did not know what sort of things the Zelankos was trying to pull. Could the head of the Zelankos be thinking of hiring Severin to be their bodyguard and worked for them?

Life After Prison Chapter 294-From the looks of it, Severin was a very talented person. The Longhorns were fond of him and now, even the Zelankos were aiming at him now. She was right. No matter what the others thought, she was determined to get her hands on this man!

Surprisingly, the captain of the bodyguard team, Wallace Yoshi could not endure it anymore. He sneered.” Geez, Mister Severin, you’re such an expert in bluffing. No wonder Miss Sheila had been talking about you. A-hundred-and-fifty-million dollars just because you treat a migraine? Do you think the head of the Zelankos is stupid?” His tone was so bad that everyone could tell he was unhappy with Severin.

Among the bodyguards who protected Sheila, Wallace was the handsome one. And he was also Sheila’s personal bodyguard. Since he first worked for the Ballards, he had been her personal bodyguard and they had a close relationship. Gradually, he developed a romantic feeling for his employer. Most of the time he imagined Sheila would fall in love with him. His life would change dramatically if he marry Sheila.

Yet, he did not anticipate Sheila to develop a feeling for Severin just because he saved her once when Sheila refused to have him or the other bodyguards followed her. A fit of jealousy slowly grew in his heart. and he felt like Severin had stolen his girl.

He even suspected that Severin was one of the accomplices of the thieves. Playing bad cop and good cop with the purpose to get close to Severin. He even acted cool and proud with deliberation to entice. Sheila and aroused Sheila’s curiosity.

Since ages ago, there were many rich kids trying to court Sheila but Sheila rejected every one of them. It created a new experience for Sheila when Severin did not do the norm and as they predicted Sheila was aroused by him.

Obviously, Sheila could feel Wallace was being mean to Severin. Her face darkened and said, “Wallace, how could you say that about the Zelankos? They must think it was worth paying that much money. Besides, a-hundred-and-fifty-milliondollars is nothing to them.” Wallace felt speechless. “Miss Sheila, I’m not saying the Zelankos cannot afford to pay that amount of money nor am I dubious about the Zelankos’ ability. I just think this guy here is bluffing because it seemed unreasonable for the Zelanko to pay him that much money!” Right then, Severin only explained, “I also cured Madam Jodie’s legs too. Now she can walk. So that money is nothing to them when compared with Madam Jodie’s legs. They even said I’m welcome to look. for them for any help when I need it!” “What?” You cured Madam Jodie’s legs?” Sheila gasped when she heard that. “Madam Jodie had at problem with her legs ten years ago. She had consulted with many hospitals and none of them can help. her. You actually really cure her? No wonder, no wonder they paid you that much money. It’s a big deal. It’s worth more than the a-hundred-and-fifty-million dollars for Zelankos if Madam Jodie could walk again!

“Really? My son is so talented! Those hospitals could not do it but you did it!” Judith felt proud when she heard the news.

It was really unreasonable for Severin to accept such a big amount of money for treating migraine. Yet, it was a totally different story if Severin cured Madam Jodie’s legs after her legs were paralyzed.

Wallace’s mouth twitched vehemently. He did not know Severin was so good at medicine.

Severin looked at Sheila and reminded her again. “Oh, Miss Sheila, your father is actually very sick. I saw it during the opening ceremony of the Longhorns. But there were too many people so I didn’t say anything about it.” Before Sheila could say anything, Wallace dashed out to Severin and gave him an angry glare. “B*Illshit! What’s wrong with you? Why did you curse my employer? His body is fine and he showed no symptoms of any sickness. If you dare to say that again, I’m going to hit you!” Severin did not expect Wallace to be such an arrogant person to talk so rudely at him. He glared back at Wallace. “You want to hit me? Haha. Do you think you have what it takes to hit me?”

Life After Prison Chapter 295-“Hey, kid! What did you say? How dare you look down on me? I’m the captain of the bodyguard of Brookbourn Mansion. I have many men under me. Do you dare to fight me?” Wallace had never liked Severin since the beginning. He took the chance and provoked Severin when Severin talked so boldly.

“Wallace! What the hell are you talking about? Mister Severin is my friend. How can you think about fighting him when I’m here to play with him? You are so rude!” Instantly, Sheila was so angry that her face turned red. Wallace was never such an unreasonable person. It was odd that he dared to be so rude to her friend today..

Wallace fought back, “Miss Sheila, He says I don’t have it takes to hit him! I am the captain of the Brookbourn Mansion’s bodyguards. He is looking down at Brookbourn Mansion if he looks down on me. I’m challenging him for the sake of Brookbourn Mansion!” “But…” Judith frowned. She was shocked to see Sheila’s bodyguard was such a bad-tempered man. Using his fist at someone when he was unhappy with that person.

“Are you crazy? Let me fight you then!” At that moment, Wendy and Lillie were walking toward them. Lillie swung her fist and stared at Wallace angrily. “You have to pass me before you fight my employer!” “Haha. How fierce can you fight? Do you think I’ll be afraid of you little girls?” Wallace smiled contemptuously when he saw Severin’s bodyguards. From his perspective, those girls had no real fighting ability when they were wearing such pretty outfits. Maybe they were trying to sleep with Severin and tried to gain some benefits from Severin. Obviously, he did not think highly of them.

“Are you trying to die?” Lillie stepped forward angrily as if she was going to hit Wallace anytime soon.

However, Severin extended his hand out to stop Wendy and Lillie. He said to them, “Never mind. Let me teach him a lesson for being an arrogant person. If I don’t fight him, he will think I’m not capable to fight him when I’m more than capable to fight him!” “Yes, master!” Wendy and Lillie responded submissively and backed up a few steps.

Sheila knew Wallace was a good fighter. Yet, this situation had progressed so fast that the fight was necessary. Thus, she said, “Wallace, I’ll allow you to fight with Severin but you’re not allowed to hurt him!” It infuriated Wallace even more to hear that. At that moment, he felt like Sheila did not care about him and only cared about Severin. His face became sullen, “Miss Sheila, it’s impossible to control my strength when I’m in a fight.” What surprised him the most was Severin also agreed with him. “That’s right. We cannot control our strength during a fight. I hope you won’t blame me for hurting too severely that you need to rest for half a month!” “How dare you?” Wallace glared at Severin and said, “Try it then! Let’s see if you are capable to do that.. No one except the guardians in the Ballards is my match!” Undeniably, Wallace did have the ability to say that. Being a level seven grandmaster, not many people in Brookbourn could compete with him.

“Oh, really?” Severin smiled coldly. He gripped his fist and took the first punch.

“Hmph! You actually dare to attack me first?” Wallace sneered coldly. He too, gripped his fist and did not have the plan to hold back. His punch aimed directly at Severin.

“Boom!” The two punches collided and created a rather deep sound.

The force from the collision had blasted Wallace a few steps back.

“No, no! It’s impossible!”

Life After Prison Chapter 296-There was disbelief in Wallace’s eyes and he could not even begin to fathom that Severin was stronger than him.

He glanced at Sheila and grew even more jealous when he saw how relieved she was. He clenched his fists at once and then charged right at Severin again. Both his fists were facing front as he turned his body and attacked Severin at the same time. “Rock Crushing Fist!” “Is he using martial arts? I’m guessing he doesn’t intend to show me any mercy!” Severin could tell from Wallace’s posture that the latter was attacking him without holding back. He then executed a body flicker at a speed that was more than twice as fast as before, enabling him to easily dodge Wallace’s attack.

“What just happened?!” Thinking that Severin would not be able to dodge in time, Wallace was initially happy when saw that his attack was about to land on Severin. To his surprise, however, his attack failed to land on Severin!

‘How could it be possible to dodge at that speed?’ Wallace wondered. ‘The only explanation is that this guy had already reached the level of a level nine grandmaster!’ Those who had reached such a level were on par with the Ballards’ guardians, and the few of them would rarely show their moves unless the problem at hand was related to the life and death of one of the Ballards.

As Wallace was still reeling from the shock, Severin punched him directly in the chest. Wallace could clearly hear the sound of his ribs breaking, and the next second, he saw blood gushing out as he flew several meters back. He landed on the ground, convulsed non-stop, and failed to even stand up.

“Argh!” Wallace wailed in pain and held his chest.

“Captain!” The other four bodyguards immediately surrounded him with horrified.

expressions, for they never expected someone like Wallace would be so vulnerable in front of Severin.

“Are you alright, Wallace?” Sheila could not help but run over to ask when she saw Wallace’s miserable appearance.

“It hurts!” Wallace was in so much agony that cold beads of sweat formed on his forehead.

Severin said, “You should bring him to the hospital. By my estimation, he’ll have to be bedridden for at least half a month!

“Yes, the four of you should send him to the hospital right now!” Sheila said immediately.

One of the bodyguards said, “But, Miss Sheila, what about you? What will you do if we leave your side and send him to the hospital? Let me stay and protect you! I’m worried you won’t be safe on your way back!” After all, the unfortunate incident occurred when Sheila went out without her bodyguards the other day, prompting Zachariah to instruct the bodyguards to follow Sheila whenever she went out.

Sheila was stunned for a moment, but that was soon replaced by a burst of joy as she said earnestly, “That won’t be necessary. You can bring him to the hospital, and I’ll just have Severin bring me home later. He’s powerful enough to protect me without a problem!” Severin instantly regretted beating Wallace up because Sheila used Wallace’s hospitalization as an opportunity to spend more time with Severin.

“Yes, yes, please send him to the hospital! Severin will send Miss Sheila home later!” Judith said immediately.

Sheila stole a glance at Severin’s handsome face and immediately felt a little shy.

Life After Prison Chapter 297-As soon as Wallace heard that, he got so angry that he nearly fainted. ‘Why did I even provoke him for no reason? Things are even worse now! Not only am I injured, I even gave Miss Sheila and Severin a chance to be alone! And if I can’t see Miss Sheila for half a month, I can’t imagine what Severin would do to try and curry favor with her again.” Four men carried him into the car, which soon drove off.

“Hehe, he overestimated himself!” Lillie could not help but chuckle as she watched the car drive away. “Then again, he should be honored to receive his injuries from our master. Many people don’t even get the chance to fight him!” Wendy agreed. “Yeah! That bodyguard is really ignorant! He thinks he’s strong!” Sheila had a slightly odd expression as she looked at the two beautiful bodyguards. Sure enough, the man she liked was so charming that even the bodyguards had become his fans. After all, why else would they say something so positive about Severin?

Sheila then looked at Severin and said embarrassingly, “By the way, savior, you said earlier that my father has a serious illness. Is that true? My father seems to be quite healthy to me though. He doesn’t look sick at all!” That was when Severin replied, “Didn’t he say the other day that he feels a little weak due to his age and isn’t as energetic as the younger generation? It’s not just a feeling, and he’s not being modest either. He is genuinely sick, but he just doesn’t know it!” After thinking about it for a moment, Sheila took Severin’s hand and said, “You need to help my father heal his illness, savior. It sounds serious when you put it that way. Will you be free later? Is it okay if you come by my place and treat my father later?” Severin felt a little awkward when she held his hand, so he immediately pushed her hand. away and said, “Don’t worry. Nothing serious will happen to your father. There are some things I have to handle tonight, so I think I should treat him on another day. I promise to visit your house and make him better again. Is that alright with you?” “That sounds great!” Sheila breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what Severin said.

“Ahem, savior, the scenery in the villa area here is pretty good, so why don’t you take me for a walk outside? We can chat while we walk.” Sheila stole another glance at Severin and asked tentatively.

Severin frowned, because although Sheila was pretty, she was still a very young girl. Besides, Diane treated him very well, and he did not want anything to develop between himseit and Sheila. However, she was still the daughter of Brookbourn Mansion’s leader, and it would seem a little disrespectful of him to refuse such a simple request for a walk, especially since she had taken the initiative to ask him. Moreover, the Shanahans were still counting on him to build a good relationship with Brookbourn Mansion.

Having taken all that into consideration, Severin eventually nodded. “Sure. I heard that the scenery around here is wonderful, but I’ve only ever been in my own villa without exploring the rest of the place. We can go for a short walk if you like.” Sheila could not help her joy when Severin agreed. The two of them then walked out of the villa and began their stroll along the nearby path.

Life After Prison Chapter 298-Aside from a few lanes for cars to come and out, there were also some walking paths that had a lot of flowers and plants planted all around. The tranquility of the place made it perfect for those who wished to take a stroll and feel at peace with nature. Walking on the path gave Severin a sense of calmness and a rare moment of relaxation.

Sheila, on the other hand, felt elated and her emotions were like that of someone who had. fallen in love for the first time. After all, she had never been in a relationship before, and she felt a little nervous when walking beside the handsome Severin.

“Ahem, umm…do you mind sharing with me what happened to you in the past, and how you managed to meet your wife?” Sheila broke the silence after deciding to ask him.

Severin beamed with a sweet smile at the corner of his lips when he spoke about Diane, and he could not help but say, “Hehe, it’s thanks to these two despicable people named Easton and Lucy that I got to meet Diane. If it weren’t for them, I don’t think I’d have the chance to meet. such a good wife!” He told Sheila the truth as he slowly recalled the events of the year past.

After Sheila heard about Lucy and Easton, she gritted her teeth angrily and said, “They’re the worst! Now I understand why you went to Lucy’s wedding to cause trouble! She’s horrible and inhumane! I’d kill her right now if I were you! She truly is the worst person on earth! You’re really lucky to have met a good woman like Diane despite all that happened!” Sheila only had admiration for Diane at that moment. “I genuinely admire her. She has gone through so much pressure, suffered so many wrongs, and endured everything alone for so many years. If I were in her shoes, I think I would’ve collapsed a long time ago.” Severin smiled. “She is an amazing woman, and I will make it up to her for all the suffering she’s been through. I love her very much, and I want to give her a huge wedding that she’ll never forget!” “Diane and Lucy are just so different from each other, and hearing what you said about Lucy and Easton makes me so infuriated! I feel like hiring someone to kill them both! It’ll be hard. for me not to feel angry unless they’re dead!” When Severin saw Sheila’s willingness to right the injustice done unto him, he merely smiled. and said, “Hehe, that won’t be necessary. Killing them isn’t difficult at all, but death is much. too light a punishment for them. After all, they made my parents live in fear for years, so I want them to sink into the depths of despair!” Severin pondered over Sheila’s earlier remark and said, “An idea just came to me, Miss Sheila. If you do want to help me, you can find a way to help me put pressure on the Loughs. It’ll be even better if their businesses go bankrupt!” Severin initially wanted Draco Hall to suppress the Loughs, but when Severin asked Larry for assistance, he was told that Draco Hall’s businesses leaned more toward bars, massage parlors, some bathhouses, and similar industries, all of which had nothing to do with the Loughs’s businesses.

Although Severin had already punished Easton and Lucy, those punishments were only the tip of the iceberg.

Sheila immediately agreed to his request. “It’ll be a piece of cake, so don’t worry! I’ll just have to tell my parents. The reason why the Loughs have done well in the past few years is mainly because of their cooperation with the Horsfields. It’s a key factor in helping their family gain a firm foothold! Meanwhile, the Horsfields rely heavily on the Zelankos too!” Severin smiled slightly and nodded when he heard that. “I’d have to trouble the head of your family to do me a favor and suppress the cooperation between the Horsfields and the Loughs then. If the Horsfields are facing issues, then the Loughs gravy train would be cut too!” “Yeah! The Loughs ought to be poor and go bankrupt!” Sheila had already started to fantasize about what would happen to Easton if he became poor, and what sort of expression the gold- digger Lucy would have.

Life After Prison Chapter 299-Severin and Sheila chatted away happily as they walked, and in a villa not too far from where they were, Jada-who was drinking tea on the balcony on the second floor-was stunned to see the two of them.

“That can’t be possible, right? Isn’t that Sheila Ballard? Why is Sheila and Severin…” Jada was dumbstruck to see the two of them taking such an enjoyable stroll together. After all, Sheila’s connection to Brookbourn Mansion made her status much higher than that of Robin.

It came as a complete surprise to her that Severin was walking and chatting with Sheila. A sudden thought came to mind and she immediately put down her teacup so she could take out her phone, and zoomed in on them using the camera to secretly snap some photos of them. “Why would that damn Severin have such a good relationship with Sheila? He’s probably her boytoy!” Jada gritted her teeth angrily after thinking of what Severin had done to her and her father.

She then thought to herself and mumbled, “I wonder if this photo will be useful somehow!” After giving some thought to the possible options, she finally shook her head. “Probably not. Sheila and Severin are just taking a walk anyway, and it’s not like they’re doing anything out of the ordinary. Diane probably wouldn’t be jealous anyway, since the Shanahans might even be happy to see Severin developing an even closer relationship with Sheila! After all, the Shanahans wanted to associate themselves with the Ballards since long ago!” Jada’s cell phone then started ringing all of a sudden. She answered the phone and heard Edward’s voice at the other end. He told her to meet him at a cafe as soon as she could.

Although she did not know what was up, Edward’s tone seemed to suggest that there was some bad news. Before long, she arrived at the cafe Edward mentioned.

As soon as she sat down and ordered a cup of coffee, Easton and Lucy arrived too.

“Is something the matter, Edward?” Easton asked the instant he sat down.

Edward looked at the three of them, and said, “I have some bad news. The four stars assassin we hired was killed just an hour ago, and she died by the side of the road.” “S-s-she died too?” Easton’s face darkened when he heard that. “We spent three million to hire her, and she died just like that?” Although he and Jada paid half each, he was still distressed to have lost the money like that. After all, his family’s wealth was just on the level of rich businessmen, and he could not compare with such upper-class families as Jada and Edward.

“It’s so annoying that even four stars assassins aren’t up to the task!” Jada also had a gloomy expression and fell silent after making that remark.

Life After Prison Chapter 300-Edward smiled bitterly, and said, “It can’t be helped. I’ve thought over the situation and decided that we should continue to spend more money to hire assassins. We’ve underestimated Severin’s strength, so our only choice is to hire stronger, better assassins! If even a four stars assassin is unreliable, we should hire a six stars assassin!” The corners of Easton’s mouth twitched slightly and he asked, “Six stars? What if they’re still unreliable? And besides, there’s no discount now that their anniversary is over. How much will a six stars assassin even cost?” Edward frowned. A six stars assassin cost four and a half million, but since he previously told them that the price of four stars assassin was six million before discount, he could not quote them a price that was lower than that. However, he could not give too high a price either, because he was afraid that the two of them might be startled by the amount and decide to give up on the plan.

After thinking for a while, he said, “Seven and a half million. It’s not that expensive when compare it with a four stars assassin!” you “Seven and a half million? But they don’t have any promotions now, and I won’t be able to afford it even if Jada and I pay half each! This is too expensive, Edward, I think it’s better for us to scrap this plan. Spending so much for the sake of someone like Severin isn’t worth it at all, and besides, my family’s cash flow is already a little tight!” Although Easton wanted Severin dead, he had to draw the line at paying more than a million dollars. When Jada recalled how she had been slapped, forced to kneel and apologize, watched her father being punched, and lost the quota for the Liberty City project, she could not even begin to contain her anger.

She immediately tried persuading Easton. “Think about your finger, and how Severin humiliated you at your wedding! Are you just going to suck it all up and accept it?” “But our family isn’t that rich!” Easton sighed and felt a little helpless.

At that moment, Edward interrupted them and said, “How about this, then? I had underestimated Severin’s strength and made a mistake in my judgment, and I’m partly responsible for causing you both to waste so much money!” He then paused dramatically for a moment before saying, “How about I pay four and a half million while the two of you can pay a nominal sum of one and a half million each?” When Easton heard that Edward offered to pay so much, he was immediately overjoyed and felt that he had been given a good deal. He asked Edward to confirm, “Are you sure? Will you really be willing to pay four and a half million?” Edward held Easton’s hand and said solemnly, “You and I are friends. There’s no need for you to be so polite. I feel sad when I see your hand, and besides, wouldn’t we all be happy if Severin died?” Easton nodded with a smile, but sneered in his heart. Had he not known about what Edward forced Lucy to do, he would have almost believed the man’s words. Then again, it was not like he could turn against Edward even if Edward had secretly slept with his wife. The Loughs’ present-day achievements had been dependent on the Horsfields, and the former would need the latter to take care of them in the future. As a result, Easton-who knew that he had been cucked-could only smile at Edward and curse the man in his heart.

“By the way, Severin will have to be killed as soon as possible, or else the Horsfields may no longer be able to suppress him in the future!” Jada remembered what she saw earlier and could not help but smile coldly.

“What do you mean? Severin might have a good relationship with the Longhorns, but that doesn’t mean that he’s stronger than the Horsfields. Hehe, he’s a one-man show, and even though he’s been accepted by the Shanahans now, they wouldn’t go so far as to make enemies out of us, right?” Edward smiled coldly with a hint of disdain in his eyes. In his opinion, Severin had gotten very lucky to have gained such huge advantages lately. Furthermore, Severin would have died several times over if his fighting ability was not as strong as it was.
