"Hey, Walter, aren't you a programmer?" I remember you have excellent programming skills. Are you still earning a few thousand dollars per month after working for so many years? Isn't that too little? I think you should totally seek a better opportunity. Your company pays you too little."Hannah heard that and expressed her opinion, "Look at me. I'm just a sales but I earn more annually. You are a grown man and you're earning just barely enough."Walter felt embarrassed. " I don't have a choice. I know my company is paying me too little and I know I can get a better offer if I look for a better opportunity. But I don't dare to quit as I like. I don't have any savings. I have a mortgage to pay and a family to feed. I'm not allowed to act as I like. I can't put food on the table if I quit and fail to find a job."Sophia chuckled. "You got married too soon. I remember you married your wife shortly after we graduated. That's what got you into this mess now. If you waited a few longer be
"I have nothing to do with that. We two are basically strangers now!"Severin glanced at Lucy and smirked. Lucy was so angry that she ground her teeth and finished up the glass of red wine in one go. She said, "Severin, do you have to be so harsh? I already told you I made a mistake choosing Easton over you! I hope we can get back together!"Severin said, "That's impossible. My heart dies the night I came back. Have you forgotten so quickly the expression you showed me? How you look at me with disgust and how superior you think you are?""Severin. I'm sorry. I beg you. Please get back together with me!" Lucy replied.After that, she could not care anymore. She sat over to Severin's side and grabbed his hands to press over her bust. "Severine, please forgive me. I beg you!"Cain watched nervously but he did not say anything. His attention was attracted by Lucy's long sexy legs.'What the hell is wrong with Severin? Why is he rejecting such a beautiful woman? Look at that body and
Cain knew he got his chance. He went over to sit together with Lucy with the wine in his hand and said, "Lucy, don't be upset. I don't know what happened between you and Severin. But if he said he doesn't love you anymore, no matter what you say or do is going to change his mind."He paused for a while before continuing, "Besides, isn't it better if you give me a chance? I will treat you with all my heart. I'll buy you anything you want and bring you anywhere you want!"Lucy looked at Cain with a weird expression. Cain was a chubby guy and not as handsome as Severin. He may have earned a buck load of money from overseas and could afford to drive a Ferrari but from Lucy's point of view, he definitely was not as rich as Severin was now. Severin was totally different from his past situation. With Diane's permission, maybe he would take Sheila in too. By then, Brookbourn Mansion would be well under Severin's control too. Thus, it was obvious Cain and Severin were both on different levels
Severin looked over and smiled faintly. "It just proves that this woman does not deserve my love. Believe it or not. You just need to be rich to have her allow you to put your hand on her leg."Hannah frowned. "Why did Lucy become like this? She's so materialistic. Sigh. I don't recall us being so realistic when we were studying."Severin smiled. "It's not a big problem. I mean I can forgive her for betraying me. But I can't bear or tolerate when she ganged up with Easton to bully my parents!"Hannah nodded. "Sigh. I never expect you two to end up like this. Come, Let's cheer!"Severin smiled faintly. "We are classmates. Feel free to come to look for me if you need any help in the future. If it's within my power, I'll definitely lend a helping hand!"He continued to drink for a while before feeling bored staying there. Although he did not have any feelings for Lucy anymore, it was disgusting for him to see her flirting together with Cain. By using the excuse to go to the bathroom,
Cain was feeling delighted and was looking forward to seeing how badly Severin's face was going to look later. All this while, he held a grudge against Severin because Lucy chose Severin instead of him when he had been chasing after Lucy for a long time. Now that he was rich and powerful, it was time for him to take back the things he lost.Matthew was sick of seeing Lucy and Cain cuddling together. He stopped singing and said, "Hey, Cain, Lucy. Don't you think you two have gone too far? Yes, Severin and Lucy have broken up. But can you at least think about his feelings when you two cuddle together?"Walter also joined Matthew, "That's right. It's probably very annoying for him to see you two cuddling together and it's normal if he likes to go out to take a smoke so he doesn't have to see it."Lucy did not agree. "Hmph! You guys saw it too. I begged him so we could be together again. What did he do? He refused to give me a chance. I got my head clear now. I'm only going to be with t
Cain took a look at the trolley and his face looked sullen. "Did you guys send them to the wrong room?""No. We're sure i's this room." The waitress looked at the paper in her hand before answering."This must be Severin's work! He ordered it without asking us and I presume he has already gone back after ordering them!" Lucy got an idea and said, "He has gone too far! Cain! Severin must have done this on purpose just to annoy you! Those bottles cost nearly seventeen thousand dollars!"Cain had a sullen look on his face after hearing that. "The amount is nothing to me! But he has gone too far with this! We used to be classmates. Is it necessary to play me like this?"Walter frowned. "I doubt that. Severin will never do something like this!""Hoho," Lucy sneered. "He's capable of doing anything! Easton and I were going to get married and that guy went to the wedding and screwed my wedding! My wedding was a disaster because of him!"Cain continued to place his hand on Lucy's waist.
Severin parked the car and got down. Then he walked to where they were hiding and smiled faintly. "Come on. You don't have to hide anymore. I already saw you two when I was driving."Candy and Lauren of Mus Hall walked out from behind the tree.Candy saw Severin and sneered. "Haha! We didn't expect you to come home so late. I think luck is on our side now that we bump into you. We were wondering if this villa belongs to you!"Severin looked at them and said, "I just killed an old man this morning. Did they send you two again? Why are there so many assassins? I mean who has so much money to keep on hiring assassins to let me kill?""Assassin?" Candy frowned. "We're not assassins. Umm…to be more exact, someone did send us here to kill you. We don't want to kill you but we don't have a choice!"After that, she said to Lauren, "Aunt Lauren, I'll go first and test how strong he is!"Lauren nodded and reminded her, "Be careful!""Will do." Candy nodded. Immediately, she leaped into th
"Mus Hall?"Severin looked at them. They were very sincere and he did not think they were lying. "Please stand up!"Candy and Lauren stood up and their eyes were filled with excitement when they looked at Severin."I have been living in Brookbourn for quite some time now. How come I never hear of Mus Hall before? And why are you guys trying to kill me?"Severin thought about it and said curiously, "I believe I never offended anyone from Mus Hall before."Candy explained, "Supreme Leader. Mus Hall is not situated in Brookbourn. Our headquarter is in Riverson. There are far too many gangs over there. In the past, Mus Hall had always been progressing very well. After the old Hall Master died, there were not many elite fighters left. Now, everyone in Mus Hall is barely surviving."She paused to take a breath before continuing, "Mus Hall accidentally stepped on Blood-Drinker Gang's toe. So they started to look for our trouble and forced us to yield under them and became their subsidia
