"Dad? Y-you're letting me play with my handsome Severin?" A shocked expression ran across Sheila's face. She had plans to sneak out of her home, but she was afraid it would anger her father. She didn't expect her father to have a change of tone. What a surprise!However, Sheila didn't immediately put down her guard. "Hehe, are you testing me?""Testing you? I recently have a better impression of Severin. If you can find a way to become his wife, I think that's a good idea too!"Zachariah thought Severin was more than what he seemed. He was impressed with Severin's ability to mobilize a powerful force with a phone call, his friendship with the War Chief, and also having Draco Hall under his thumb. Compared to the other young men in the city, he would be the best son-in-law he could ever ask for."Dad, you've changed!"Sheila looked at his Dad mischievously, and realization dawned upon her."Oh, I see what's going on now. Severin made a phone call to ask a friend to save my dear co
"Miss Ballard? That's a surprise! I must inform the Madam of your arrival!" One of the Shanahans' bodyguards recognized Sheila. After all, she was popular among the bodyguards."They're having lunch now, aren't they? You don't have to inform them. I'll meet them myself!""Miss Ballard, please let me escort you. They're having lunch at the Madam's house. There's a crowd there, and even Mister Emeraldo is there too!" The bodyguard said as he happily led the way."Mister Emeraldo is here too?" Sheila was surprised, but she didn't ask any further about it.The two finally arrived at the courtyard in front of Catherine's house. There were a few tables laden with food. The guests are already seated and prepared to have their meals."Can you spare a set of dining utensils, Madam Catherine?" Sheila said jokingly."My goodness, it's Miss Ballard! What brings you here? Come, have a seat. You should've told us you were coming!" Catherine was happy to see Sheila."Well, I was just shopping
It was the first time Sheila presented a gift to Diane. She was afraid Diane wouldn't be happy about it. After all, even though she bought gifts for everyone, her intentions were still too obvious.Diane received the gifts with a smile. "Thank you, Miss Ballard. They're beautiful. I like them!""Come, have a seat here!" Diane ordered her attendant to place a set of utensils and a stool on Severin's other flank."Thank you, Diane!"With the both of them seated beside Severin, Sheila thought Diane was generous for making that arrangement. That was why Severin loved his wife. She was such a saint!"Diane, I'll bring your presents inside!" Megan was gathering all the gifts the Shanahans had received from Sheila."Sure!" Diane nodded as she passed her gifts to her sister."Ahem. Miss Ballard, you're too generous. You've brought us so many gifts, and we don't know how to repay you!"Severin sat down and raised his glass. "I'll give you a toast!"It was Sheila's first time drinking w
Everyone was in a good mood, especially the Shanahans. Having Sheila Ballard and Claude Emeraldo visiting their estate meant their family was becoming more significant. At that rate, they had a chance to become one of the first-tier families in the city.Catherine Shanahan was in a good mood too. While she usually wouldn't drink much, she had two glasses of red wine that afternoon."Come, let's drink!"However, nobody expected Sheila Ballard to get drunk that soon. Even though she had already lost her composure, she continued filling her glass."Miss Sheila, you're drunk. You must stop before you knock yourself out!" Diane tried to advise her."I'm not drunk. I can still drink. I can drink a lot!" Sheila struggled to keep her eyes open as she mumbled.Severin felt the situation was getting out of hand. Sheila had already finished two bottles of red wine. Despite her claims, the headstrong girl couldn't hold her liquor. How was Severin supposed to explain what happened to her fath
"Uh..."Diane and Megan exchanged glances and didn't know what to say. It was also embarrassing for Diane. She had to watch another woman shamefully hug her man."Miss Ballard, please watch your conduct! Let Diane and Megan help you to a room to rest!" Severin tapped Sheila's shoulder. He was getting more and more furious.After all, he was losing face in front of his in-laws, family and friends, and especially his beloved wife. However, he still had to hold some restraint on her. After all, Sheila was still the precious daughter of the powerful Ballard family. He couldn't push her away by force, so he could only convince her to let him go."Mmmm...no! I don't want to! I want to be with you. I like you so much." After Sheila mumbled a little, she fell asleep on Severin's lap."She's drunk! Don't take her seriously!" Severin looked at Diane and his in-laws as he tried to defend himself."Severin, maybe it's best you bring her inside. At this point, you're the only one who can help
"Mmm!"Sheila mumbled one last time before she passed out. After walking for a few minutes, Severin carried Sheila into Diane's room and placed her on the bed. Then, Severin removed her shoes and repositioned her body so she could sleep comfortably.Suddenly, Sheila's arm wrapped around his neck."Be gentle, please! It's my first time! I'm scared!" She muttered.Her sexy red lips, angelic face, and sexy body almost made his heart move. Severin gulped as he almost fell for her charms. He quickly put her arm away from his neck, shook his head, and left the room. He splashed his face with water inside the toilet before heading downstairs."She's such a handful. How could she get so drunk?"Even a righteous man like Severin would have a tough time dealing with a wild-spirited beauty like Sheila."How was it? Is she alright?" Diane asked her husband when she saw he had returned."She's fine. She quickly fell asleep after I put her on the bed!""She's such a piece of work. She can't
"It seems that Miss Ballard likes you very much!" On the way back, Diane, who was sitting in the passenger's seat, smiled slightly and said to Severin.Severin did not know how to answer, so he could only reply half-jokingly, "Hey, Honey, you think too much, she is just drunk and talking nonsense. But this shows that you did not choose the wrong person, right? Your husband's charm is extraordinary!"After Diane heard this, she could noot help but pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Isn't that right? I've chosen the best man!"After that, she asked curiously again, "By the way, what is the gift that Claude gave you? Why do I feel that he came here today to curry favor with you?"Speaking of Claude, Severin could not help but smiled and said, "Claude is a smart man, I guess he saw Larry from Draco Hall and the others gave a lot of the Chavezes's property to the Shanahans. He must think that the Shanahans has a bright future, so he's there to give gifts!"However, Diane shook her
"My God, no wonder I saw that you didn't really want this gift at the beginning, but when you saw what it was, your eyes lit up immediately, and then you accepted it. From your reaction, I knew it was something good!" Diane could not help but exclaim.Severin smiled and said, "Selene is too young, so I can't make tea for her. However, her parents can take it. It's okay for them to prolong their life, at least ten years more. As for you, At that time, you can keep more than half of it, and I will teach you some boxing and kicking exercises in two days. You can practice even if you have nothing to do!""Okay. Honey, you're so kind to me!"After hearing this, Diane immediately laughed, obviously very happy. "This Claude is willing to take out such a treasure. This is really a waste of resources.""Haha, it's because people think your husband is useful. This is how the world is. When you are incapable, no one will think highly of you!" Severin laughed.However, at this moment, an old
