Severin's expression was still surprisingly indifferent as he turned around to glance at the 20 people behind him. "Twenty men? That's all? And they're just all low-level gangsters. I can barely get a proper warmup if I fight them."Queenie nearly fainted when she heard that and immediately chastised him, "Why are you still pretending to intimidate them? These guys don't get scared so easily. Let's just beg Hugh!""Beg him?" Severin was stunned for a moment. "Do you think you'll get anything if you beg an animal like him?"Queenie was speechless. Severin's remark had rendered it useless to kneel or kowtow to Hugh because it would have already offended Hugh beyond the point of redemption."Alright then, kid. Shoe me what you got!" Hugh waved his hand to give his subordinates the signal to act.When Severin saw those gangsters rushing up with clenched fists, a trace of disdain appeared in his eyes and he darted toward them in a blink of an eye. At that moment, he seemed to have tran
Hugh gritted his teeth and his vision turned sharp in an instant. He rushed out all of a sudden, then raised his leg and swiped a kick at Severin. He was someone that no ordinary person would dare to provoke, and his combat strength was quite formidable too, despite being frightened by Severin's attack earlier.However, Severin would not be able to fight back that easily from the sofa, so Hugh launched a surprise attack. He believed that Severin would be done for if he could just land a strong kick."A sneak attack?" Hugh's speed was fast, but he moved like a snail in Severin's eyes. With a slap of the hand, he smacked away Hugh's oncoming kick and raised his leg again to kick Hugh's crotch."Arghh!" The next second, Hugh flew backward and fell to the ground with a thump. His hands were covering his nether regions as he uttered an agonized wail. He could clearly feel that his wiener was becoming useless!"Graaah! You'll regret this!" Hugh glared at Severin, and veins were bulging f
Hugh gritted his teeth and endured the agonizing pain as he finally transferred the money to Queenie's account."I received it!" Queenie's voice trembled as she looked at the number displayed on her phone. She had never seen such a huge sum of money in her life!"Haha, wonderful! Let's go!" Severin laughed and left with Queenie."Hugh…Hugh…you need to let 'them' know. That f*cker…he crossed the line." One of the guys crawled over to Hugh.Hugh glared angrily at the other party and yelled, "You dumbf*ck! Do you know what's the most important thing we need to do right now?""What?" That subordinate had been beaten up so badly that all he thought about was revenge.Hugh gritted his teeth and winced in pain. "Call an ambulance and have me sent me to the hospital, you f*ckwad. I don't even know whether or not my wiener is still working!""Oh, yes, that's right! We need to go to the hospital!" the guy came to his senses and agreed.At that moment, Severin and Queenie had walked out o
Severin smiled. "Let's go. Your next step should be to resign from your job, don't you think? You have a lot of cash now, after all. If your parents ask where you got it from, just tell them that I returned it to your family. That'll spare you from having to explain the full story to them. Anyway, we'll view some homes once you hand in your resignation""View some homes?" Queenie was speechless. That damn Severin had caused so much trouble, and yet he was somehow thinking about going house-viewing. However, when she saw that Severin had no plans to run away, she had no choice but to cancel her plans in the hope that Severin would have a few tricks up his sleeve and not fear Hugh's backer.Severin drove the car and arrived outside a bar. After parking the car, Severin and Queenie walked into the establishment, where Queenie had a word with the manager."I'm quitting, Paul!" Queenie said as she looked at her manager, Paul. "Could you pay me the rest of my salary? I haven't worked much
"You're the best, Queenie! Remember to come to work tonight. It's only for a few hours anyway, and you'll get your pay as soon as you clock off!" Paul looked gratefully at Queenie and heaved a sigh of relief."Okay. Please excuse me for now then!" Queenie nodded and quickly walked out with Severin.As soon as she walked out, Severin said to her, "Why do I feel that there's something fishy with your manager? Judging from how he acted earlier, it seems like it's very important to him that you come to work tonight!"Queenie did not read too much into it. "Two of the girls couldn't come, so they're short of people now. He just wants me to help cover for them tonight. I'll just do it since it's only one night. I can still quit once my shift's over.""I still have the feeling that he has something ulterior motive!" Severin insisted on his point of view."That's unlikely. Paul is a very nice person, and if a customer wants to bring us away with them, he'll explain to them that we only ke
"A baby?" Severin was speechless. He shot back coldly, "Don't be ridiculous! She's my cousin!"Queenie felt embarrassed and blushed."Oh, I'm so sorry! I thought you were a young couple who were planning to buy a house to stay after marriage! I'm really sorry for the misunderstanding!" The female saleswoman realized that she had used the wrong line on them and smiled awkwardly as a result. "You're both very attractive, and you look like a couple at first glance, which is why-""Alright, we get it!" Severin stopped the saleswoman and smiled. "Anyway, can you bring us to one of the show models?""Ah, that's right! Let's have a look!" Queenie agreed."Queenie? Is that you? It is!" All of a sudden, a man in a white suit walked over with a young woman holding his arm. Queenie's expression turned sullen when she saw that the person was her college classmate.His name was Ferid Bennet, and Queenie had rejected him after he tried to win her heart back during their college days. After gra
After hearing that, the expression on the saleswoman's face changed a little. She thought she was about to close a sale seeing how generous Severin and Queenie were when they were considering buying one unit.The moment she knew they did not have the money and were just window shopping struck her. If that was real, Severin and Queenie were just wasting her time."What? She is a B-girl? Ferid, luckily you did not pick her. Otherwise, you are going to regret it for the rest of your life. You can never tell if she would accompany some rich kids after her shift or not," Faye expressed her opinion in a weird tone with her eyes looking contemptuous at Queenie.Immediately after that, she added, "Are you her boyfriend? If you are, I advise you better break up with her as soon as possible. She must have slept with many men!"Severin could not tolerate it anymore after hearing that. He stepped forward and slapped Faye."Good job!" Queenie was going to do it but Severin beat her to it. She
"Why should I scram? I've already apologized. I'm not leaving. Let's see if you can really afford to buy the house or not!" Faye thought she was humiliated and wanted to find a different way to beat Queenie."Severin, where's my bank card?" Queenie asked. Severin passed it to her.With the bank card in her hand, she said to the saleswoman, "I don't need to see the show unit. I'll get the unit on the sixth floor. Full payment in cash. Can you round up the figure?""Sure. That will be two hundred thousand dollars in total. Ma'am, you can pay here. I'll go and prepare the document!" The saleswoman was very excited."What? Paying in full with cash for the unit?" Ferid got on his feet and exclaimed.In the beginning, his intention was to show off his ability to Queenie and made Queenie regret not being with him. He wanted to show Queenie that she could own a roof over her head and that their future would get better if she agrees to be with him. Yet, he was dumbstruck to hear the unit c
