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
"Hehe, you're just an immature little girl in my eyes!" Severin chuckled and did not want to entertain her question. He parked the car outside her villa and said to her, "We've arrived, Miss Sheila!"Sheila looked down at her bust and frowned slightly. "Is this still immature for you? What's your definition of mature, then?"Severin looked speechlessly at her. Sheila, being the immature girl that she was, had an adorably bubbly character. However, certain parts of her body seemed rather mature, and were further emphasized by the tight seatbelt around her waist.His speechless expression amused Sheila greatly. She loosened her seat belt, but rather than getting off, she said to him, "You're handsome and capable, so why are you such a coward?""Me? A coward?" Severin frowned. 'When was I ever a coward?Sheila smiled slyly. "Yeah, you! I know many rich and capable people who have more than one wife, and the only reason you're afraid of marrying a girl who is cute, good-looking, and h
"I know that you have a sense of responsibility toward Diane, but you need to have a sense of responsibility toward me too!" Sheila immediately turned around and said to Severin."Why should I have a sense of responsibility toward you?" Severin smiled wryly and turned around to question her.Sheila then tilted her head, stretched forward suddenly, and gave Severin a peck on the lips. "There! That's why you should be responsible toward me! I gave you my first kiss, so shouldn't you be responsible to me?" Sheila then turned her head away in an instant. Her face and ears were red, while her heart was beating non-stop. Severin was stubborn, and he was not a pervert either, so the only way for her to have a glimmer of hope is if she took the initiative to kiss him.Severin was stunned, for he never expected Sheila would be so bold as to give him a kiss. It all happened so suddenly too! More importantly, it was her first kiss, a moment that was important for any girl! He truly had no word
