"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 w
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
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
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
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 th
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,
"Is that so? Who is this girl anyway?" Edward did not quite believe Jada's words, so he smiled faintly and looked over. As soon as he saw who was in the picture, he gasped and said, "My God! Isn't that Sheila Ballard? Why is Sheila walking with Severin?"The corners of Easton's mouth twitched a few times. "He…he's a boytoy? I didn't think he'd actually get together with Sheila!"Lucy saw the surprised looks of both men and could not help but wonder out loud, "Who is Sheila? Is she rich? Richer than Edward?"Easton immediately replied, "She's not just rich. Her family is richer than the Zelankos and the Longhorns. She's the only daughter of Brookbourn Mansion leader, and those who marry her would almost certainly shoot to the top!”Edward nodded too. "The biggest force in Brookbourn is Brookbourn Mansion. You might think that they're sitting in their ivory tower in complete detachment from the world, but some of the upper-class families are required to pay them a certain sum of mone
Jada frowned and said, "I've been wondering who it was that hired the trio on the day of the Liberty City launching. It would've cost a lot of money to hire three people at once, so could it have been Rufus?""It could be, but we can't even consider relying on other people. We'll be in big trouble if Severin wins Sheila's heart anytime soon. After all, his beef is with us, and none of us will be able to escape his wrath once he secures power!" Edward pointed out.…At that moment, Severin had finished his walk with Sheila and they finally returned to his villa. Once they were back, Severin looked at the time and said to her, "I'll be busy tonight, Miss Sheila, but I can drive you home. Regarding your father's illness, you can rest assured that I'll check him soon, but based on my preliminary judgment, it's likely that he has been poisoned!""Poisoned? That's not funny at all! How did he get poisoned? He's always been in good health, but he's recently been a little weak, especially
