Life After Prison Chapter 17
"I…I have a daughter…I really do have a daughter!" Severin was more than pleasantly surprised. He could not have imagined that he would receive such blessings when he least expected it! Diane had gotten pregnant with his child after a drunken one-night stand, and she later gave birth to his adorable daughter. To top it off, Severin could tell that Diane was a good woman, one that was selfless, kind, and strong!She was the kind of woman that Severin should protect, not gold-diggers like Lucy who placed vanity and money above all else.In addition, the woman standing in front of him had the kind of character and aura that was unhampered by her ordinary-looking clothes, and her near-flawless face was practically glowing with beauty.Diane had suffered a lot anguish and injustice in the past five years, so Severin secretly vowed to himself that he would make it up to her for everything that she went through—he wanted to convince her that she did not choose the wrong man, and he was det

"Why are all of you just standing there? Beat him up!" Trevor looked at the bodyguards and shouted."Just try it!" When Diane saw those bodyguards raised their machetes, her heart skipped a beat, and she opened her arms again to shield Severin. "My family might not care much about me anymore, but the Shanahan blood still runs in my veins! If anyone hurts me by mistake, then you'd best be prepared to face the Shanahans's wrath!""But…" The bodyguards immediately became fearful.Severin, who was standing behind her, felt a warm current in his heart. However, he took a step forward and patted Diane on the shoulder. "Leave this kind of stuff to me. I can handle it, so don't worry!""You? What can do you? Bragging is all you've got going for you!" Diane left Severin speechless with that remark.On the other side, Trevor frowned before eventually saying, "Alright, Miss Diane. I'll give you one chance today. I'll let the two of you leave if you can get someone from the Shanahans to plead

"Twenty minutes are up!" Lucy had been staring intently at the time, and she immediately reminded Trevor when she saw that it had reached the 20-minute mark.Trevor nodded and signaled for the Loughs's bodyguards to go ahead. To his astonishment, however, the Shanahans' old lady had reached the second floor just as he was about to raise his hand. Her two sons came with her as well, along with several other members of the Shanahan family. Behind them were than a dozen bodyguards, all of whom were wearing in black suits. There were more than meets the eye for everyone there.Although there were not a lot of people from the Shanahans, the Loughs' bodyguards consciously gave way when they saw that the Shanahans had arrived. After all, the Shanahans were a third-tier upper-class family. Their sheer influence dwarfed the Loughs, and the latter simply could not afford to piss the Shanahans off.Several guests began to gossip when they saw the Shanahans making an appearance."The Shanahans

Diane's initial plan was just to inform her father, William, about the situation. Believing that a couple of remarks from William to the Loughs would be enough to persuade the other party to back off, her plan backfired when William brought both her uncle, George, and her grandma, Catherine along.William glanced at Severin and sighed. He was obviously disappointed with Severin, for he never thought that his daughter would get together with someone so worthless. It dawned on him that it was probably the reason why his daughter refused to say anything when asked about the child's father.Such a man was not worthy of being associated with the Shanahans, especially not a woman like Diane who had both beauty and brains. Diane's mother, Felicia, glanced at Severin and took a step forward. As she looked coldly at Severin, she said, "So you're the one who ruined my daughter's life? If it weren't for you, she wouldn't've been kicked out of the house, and our life wouldn't have been so suffer

Catherine was manifestly unhappy when she heard what Diane said. "Diane, are you sure you want to be with him? How is someone like him worthy of a woman like you?""There's no point trying to persuade me, Grandma. I've already made my decision!" Diane remained steadfast."Why do you have to be so stubborn?" William finally could not resist voicing his opinion, and his tone seemed to lament that Diane's lack of desire to seek a better change.The corners of Catherine's lips trembled slightly and she gritted her teeth. "I see. Since you've already made up your mind, I won't bother any longer. I would've been able to try and accept this man if he was at least the son of an ordinary businessman, but I am thoroughly and utterly unable to accept a man like him! Worse still, he's an ex-convict!"After saying what she wanted to say, the old lady said to Trevor, "Mister Trevor, Diane is still a Shanahan, so the least your people can do is refrain from hurting her. That man, on the other han

Little did anyone expect that the owner of the hotel would show up there with the hotel's security guards.Everyone there moves aside so he could pass through.Severin looked over and saw none other than the middle-aged man who played chess with Henry earlier that morning. He wondered what the man was doing there."Oh, hello, Mister Monroe. What brings you here?" Trevor said with a smile.Denzel Monroe, the owner of the Richemont Hotel, glanced at Severin and said, "I was told that somebody was causing trouble in my hotel, so I decided to bring someone over to have a look at the situation. Could you explain what's going on, Mister Trevor?""This kid came here just to stir trouble! He even hurt my son!" Trevor pointed at Severin and said angrily. "I don't need your hotel security guards to take any action, though. Our bodyguards have already arrived, so just let me people take care of him!"Trevor paused, and said again, "Of course, I don't blame you for letting someone like him i

"B-B-Blade?!" Denzel's expression soured when he heard that name.Diane, who initially was able to breathe a sigh of relief, immediately turned pale. She said softly to Severin, "Bad news. It appears that the Loughs have still maintained connections with Blade."Severin's brows furrowed, not out of nervousness, but out of curiosity. "Is this 'Blade' guy strong? What kind of person is he?""You might not know this, but aside from the wealthy families we see in Brookbourn's surface, there's the existence of a ruler in the underworld, as well as an organization called the Draco Hall. Draco Hall's second-in-command is Blade. He's a capable fighter, and he only got to where he is now by killing people. They say that he faced more than a hundred people with only a blade in his hand, and by the end of the massacre, more than sixty of them lay dead the ground, while the others ran off because they were scared out of their wits!" Diane said with a frown.She was growing increasingly worried

Trevor then asked, "Are you sure your men can put a fight against my men when your side has barely half the number of our bodyguards?"At that moment, however, one could see through the window that a middle-aged man was leading a group of men to surround the hotel. A number of those people barged in directly, and the total number of individuals that had arrived was probably at least several hundred."We're done for. The guys from Draco Hall are here!" Denzel's expression sank when he saw the situation outside."W-w-what are we supposed to do?" Diane was extremely anxious."Come here, Diane. Are you sure you want to die along with a poor nobody like Severin? Don't you care about your daughter at all?" Felicia squeezed through the crowd, grabbed Diane's arm, and dragged her to where the Shanahans were standing.William, who had also turned pale with fright, hurried over and took Diane's other arm in an attempt to help his wife pull Diane away from Severin."Think about Selene.
