The person venting out his anger was none other than Victor, and his angry roar sounded like that of a raging beast.At that moment, Jada began to doubt her life too. She never once dreamed that she would be slapped thrice in two days! Ironically, however, she was unusually calm as she sat there blankly. Moments later, she said to Victor who was standing there furiously, "I don't think it'll be that easy to kill him now, Dad. Mister Larry kept on calling him 'Mister' Severin, so it shows that their relationship is far from ordinary. If we kill Severin while Larry and his men are away, we'd still offend Draco Hall."As she said that, she paused and continued, "Draco Hall's people aren't idiots, you know. Larry and Blade are sly old foxes, and they know that we aren't on good terms with Severin. If Severin suddenly dies, you can bet that they'll come knocking on our door!""Are you sure there is nothing you can do?" Prunella and Cecil were still a little reluctant to give up when they
When Easton heard that, he panicked and hurriedly explained, "Jada, I swear to you, I've never tricked you or told you a lie before! My wife can bear witness too!"Lucy was just as afraid of offending the Stones, so she raised one hand and swore, "That's right! He's a nobody, and I know him very well. Their family didn't have much money in the past, and I chose to be with Easton because I hated how poor Severin was. And he only got out of prison a few days ago!"When Jada saw that the two of them seemed to be telling the truth, she nodded and said, "Alright. I believe you. If that's the case, then he only knew Henry and Larry within a couple of days. I don't believe their relationship would be Since we have just met for a short time, I'm guessing their friendship doesn't run too deep!"Victor shook his head. "That might not necessarily be the case. Look at how Larry treated him earlier. If we target Severin again, I don't think Draco Hall will just let it slide!"Jada thought for a
Severin had a polite expression as well. "I didn't know how to thank you both for Blade's help last night and your help today too!""Haha, you're more than welcome. I'll treat you like my elder brother from now on. After all, you've treated my mother, and that's more important than anything else!" Larry chuckled heartily."You're too kind, I say. Too kind! Let's continue to help each other in the future!" Severin smiled.Maurice stood there with a look of relief on his face. His son has been shown to be capable and promising, and there was no need for anyone to be worried that Easton might come to cause trouble with them now that Severin got acquainted with someone like Larry."Alright then! We'll be excusing ourselves now!" Larry and Blade bid Severin's family goodbye and drove off."Did you drink?" Diane could not help but ask after walking over and catching a faint whiff of alcohol on Severin's body.Severin smiled. "Yes, Hall Master Larry was too polite, and I told him that i
"You must be the missus, right?" The woman stepped forward and smiled at Diane. "We're the bodyguards Mister Severin hired!""Bodyguards?" Diane had a contorted expression on her face when heard that. Those women all had good figures-some had the girl-next-door look, some had a cold character, and others were very sultry. They were the complete opposite of how bodyguards were supposed to look."Severin!" Diane gritted her teeth and could not resist yelling out loud."What's the matter, honey?" When Severin rushed out, he was stunned to see several sexily-dressed women. "Uhh…who are they?""Oh? Aren't these the bodyguards you hired? Are you seriously telling me you don't know them? Who are you trying to fool?" Severin's bewildered face angered Diane even more. She suspected that he had been searching for lovers instead of bodyguards, and they looked like women who were just waiting to be taken care of rather than women who were capable of taking care of others. In her mind, Severin
The young girl smiled slightly and asked Diane if she was satisfied.Diane's red lips parted open slightly and she covered her mouth. "You're…you're too strong!""Goodness me." Maurice gulped. "Your strength is just…out of this world. Your salary must be very high too!" He previously also felt that they all looked too pampered to be bodyguards, but their show of strength really did scare him."Don't you worry, Dad. They've already been paid. It'll be much safer now that they're here to tag along with you whenever you go out in the future. I can finally rest easy now!" Severin said with a smile.A dull thud was heard as the girl put the stone lion on the ground. It felt as if the ground had shaken slightly.She dusted her hands, walked over, and smiled at Diane before saying, "Ma'am, I'm the weakest among the six. If you don't believe me, you can ask one of them to give you another demonstration!""I'll do it!" Another woman stood up and was about to walk over."No, no, no! I tru
The next morning, Severin was about to head out and see if he could hire some servants when Felicia, William, and Megan showed up unexpectedly."Oh, it's our in-laws! Come and have a seat!" As soon as Judith saw them, she immediately stepped forward and greeted them enthusiastically.Although a quarrel ensued the last time that their in-laws came, they were still technically family. Maurice then immediately greeted him with a smile. "Hello, Felicia. We went out yesterday and bought some good tea. I'll make some for you in a bit!""There's no need to be so polite. We're all family, after all." Felicia felt a little embarrassed when Maurice said that and immediately replied courteously to him.At that moment, six beautiful women came out of the house behind Diane."What's the deal with all these women, Severin?" Megan questioned Severin before Felicia could say anything else. She looked at all those women and saw how good of a figure they all had. Some looked like absolute sweeties,
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lillie was furious. She and her other five comrades were not some random people on the street, but junior generals who contributed a lot to their country during the war.Had Warren not personally come to them, they would never have decided to serve as someone else's bodyguards. Moreover, Wendy-the most beautiful of the six and also their leader-was none other than the granddaughter of Horace Newman, one of the Four Great War Heroes. After Wendy learned that her grandfather wanted to marry her off to a young man, she was intrigued by who that young man was. Unfortunately, that young man rejected her grandfather's gesture and refused her outright even though he had never even met her before! Wendy could not come to terms with that and felt very uneasy when that happened.As soon as she was told that the same young man needed a bodyguard, Wendy approached Warren without a second thought and declared to him that she wanted that position.In truth,
"There's no harm in keeping quiet, is there, Megan? Why are you getting all angry with the bodyguards?" Felicia chided when she saw that Diane and Severin were not very pleased with what happened.She smiled at them, recalled the reason for their visit, and said to Severin, "I'm sure you remember the bet we made, right?”Severin had a grin on his face as he answered immediately, "Of course. But it's only been two or three days though. Are you all getting overly anxious? I've assured you that the seven-and-a-half million dowry will be ready for you within a month!"In response, Felicia hurriedly said, "No, no, that's not it. We didn't come here to rush you. There's just one other thing that we need to tell you!""And what's this 'other thing'?" Severin frowned and was slightly puzzled.Felicia paused briefly before saying, "Our previous bet remains the same, but we're adding another extra condition!""Another extra condition? What do you mean by that?" Severin's face soured. "A be
