"The Free Rebel Gang's great guardian?" Severin frowned confusedly.The man that Severin spoke to enjoyed talking about other people, so he happily told them, "Yeah. Rumors are going around that Yuka is having an affair with the Free Rebel Gang's great guardian. I mean, why else would he help her out all the time, right? The guy's name is Gabriel. He has plenty of wives and side chicks, so it makes sense that he's a creep, right? How else can you explain their relationship if a creep helps her out whenever she's in a tricky situation?"Severin was slightly taken aback by that reasoning. His expression was slightly unnatural as he said, "Perhaps you shouldn't make such claims without any evidence. What if Yuka finds out and kills you?"He looked at his surroundings and said with a smile, "Hehe, she's not around, is she? Besides, plenty of people are saying that she's sleeping with her sworn brother in addition to Gabriel. I'm not the only one talking about them behind their backs."
Severin chatted with Sheila and arrived at Taurus Hall's location. The liveliness inside the villa could be heard from outside, and an endless stream of people entered the compound."The Skyriver Gang's leader had presented a birthday gift of three hundred thousand dollars to Madam Yuka!"Severin heard the announcement from the person in charge of registration. A man with low attainment walked in with some of his subordinates.The Skyriver Gang was probably on good terms with Taurus Hall, hence their invitation to Yuka's birthday."What a coincidence! It's Yuka's birthday today!" Sheila chuckled when she heard that.Severin thought for a moment and said, "Perfect. Since plenty of people come bearing gifts, we'll be able to enter as long as we have a gift too. Let's head in and then work our way from there.""Hehe, that'll be fun!" Sheila exclaimed excitedly as her eyes lit up."Yuka is going into her thirties as a single woman. Doesn't she feel embarrassed to throw a birthday pa
"Gabriel is probably having an affair with Yuka. There's no other explanation as to why he would give her so much money!" someone from the group of men pointed out."I believe so too. He called her his goddaughter, but I think there's more to their relationship than meets the eye," said another. "Why else would he give her so much money?"Everyone felt that it was a lot to give seven million to a hall master who wielded little influence.Severin heard from the announcements that several wealthy businessmen gave around ten thousand to fifteen thousand dollars. Those who wanted to keep up their appearances would give about three hundred thousand dollars to six hundred thousand dollars.Several people who were on better terms with Yuka would give a million or just slightly over a million dollars.As a result, Gabriel's gift of seven million was a huge surprise to everyone there.Sheila looked at Severin and asked, "How much should we give then?"Severin's brows furrowed a little be
Gabriel could not control himself from ogling at Yuka's breasts. He gulped as he looked at her figure even though he did not know when he would get the chance to taste her. He was busy fantasizing when a slightly trembling voice announced, "Mister Severin Feuillet has presented a birthday gift of thirty million dollars!"The guests inside were shocked when they heard that."Did someone just give thirty million?""Thirty million? My ears aren't deceiving me, are they?"Though Yuka hated holding birthday parties, she was a little cash-strapped at the moment and wanted to try and secure some cash through her birthday celebration. That way, she would be able to breathe easy, at least for the moment.The deadline to pay back the hundred and fifty million debt that she owed to the Free Rebel Gang had already passed. Although Gabriel had helped to speak up for her, she still had to pay off some of the debt as soon as she could. If she kept delaying it, then the gang might decide not to s
Yuka was a very good-looking woman. Severin was taken aback when she approached him with a smile.By then, Severin had already removed the ring from his hand and kept it in his trouser pocket. He did not want Yuka to recognize him so quickly."Thank you for your generosity, Mister Severin. I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but could you remind me where and when the two of us met?"Yuka looked at the handsome guy in front of her with a frown. As much as she tried to remember when she met him, she had no memory of ever knowing that man.Severin smiled and said, "We've met only once, so perhaps you've forgotten who I am. It's not important, though. I trust that we'll be meeting each other very frequently."Sheila was aghast when she heard that. She never expected Severin to lie so blatantly and say that he had met Yuka once before. On second thought, however, she realized that he only said that because there was no other better excuse."May I ask who you are?" Yuka frowned.
Brody had waited until Severin left before telling Yuka. "That guy must be a playboy. You saw that hot chick beside him, didn't you? I bet he's the kind of scum who wants to hit on you!"Yuka knew that very well, and she could hear the animosity in Brody's tone too. "I'm not an idiot. I'm well aware of his intentions. Just because he has a pretty companion doesn't automatically mean he's a terrible person. Many rich and powerful people have more than one wife. You should know that by now. I don't know him that well either. Besides, why shouldn't I accept his gesture if he's willing to have dinner with us and give us so much money? What do you expect me to do, chase him out?"The great elder nodded too. "You can't do that! He's giving us so much money because he respects us! The other gangs who are about as strong as us will think that our leader has secured a strong backer. None of them would dare to target us anymore and we'll have a much easier path in the future. Furthermore, he'l
Darren smiled evilly and explained, "She's a very cunning woman. She only flirts with you when it benefits her. As soon as you want to get it on with her, she'll leave and say something like 'You're such a meanie' or something of the sort."After a pause, he said again, "She knows the ways of the world. She can balance delicate relationships with men and act as if your relationship with her is very special. But you can't even get close to her. She'll find all sorts of excuses to brush you off. Do you genuinely think Gabriel treats her like a goddaughter? I call bull! He just wants to bang her!"Severin smiled after hearing that. "Don't worry about it. It's just thirty million. Heck, I'd be happy to give her two hundred million! This is just peanuts to me!"Darren was speechless when he heard that. His mouth was wide ajar. "You're filthy rich, then! But I still think it's not worth it. She's not as young as other girls, and goodness knows whether she's sleeping with her godfather. Yo
"I don't have to tell you what's our relation. Even if your gang leader is here, this has nothing to do with you!" Severin laughed out loud. As he talked, he strengthened his grip.Gabriel's face twitched painfully because it hurt more than previously. He was shocked that Severin was capable of gripping his hand so strongly."Ah! You…"In the end, Gabriel could not take it anymore and squatted down. Severin smiled faintly and let go of Gabriel's hand. "Mister Gabriel, you're wrong to think that you can bully me because I look young. I'm not someone you can easily mess with."Gabriel stood up and smiled, embarrassed. "Haha. You're really so strong. I wanted to test how strong you are."Followingly, he asked, "Hey, who's your father? I know there is a Feuillets in Skycean City and that family is just a third-tier upper-class family. But I remember none of them are called Severin. And they always think twice before spending money."Severin smiled faintly. "I'm not from here or any
