"Huge benefits?" Diane's eyes lit up when she heard that. She immediately said to Severin, "Then you need to go! If you miss out on something good, you might regret it for the rest of your life!"Selene, who was sitting in the back, asked her father innocently, "Come back soon, okay Dad? Will you bring me a present after you come back?"Severin's heart felt warm all of a sudden and he could not help but say to his cute little daughter. "Don't worry, Selene. I'll bring you lots of presents when I come back!""Yay! Dad's buying presents for me!" Selene bounced excitedly in the car."Haha, such an adorable little girl!" Maurice carried his granddaughter up and smiled happily as he said to her, "I'm going fishing tomorrow. Would you like to come with me?""Okay! I want to see Grandpa fish! Then…will we be eating fish for dinner tomorrow?" Selene looked at Maurice with her big eyes."Haha, of course we will! You know how good I am at fishing!" Maurice laughed again.…At noon the ne
Before long, Diane reached the company and entered through the main door. Wendy and Lillie followed her until she reached her office."Miss Diane! Our counterpart's boss is already waiting for you in the office!" Diane's secretary came forward and said to her as soon as she arrived."Okay!" Diane did not expect them to be there that early, so she smiled slightly and said to the two bodyguards, "Wendy, Lillie, you may sit and rest at the sofa over there. Don't worry about me. This is my office, after all, so my safety is guaranteed. I'll still call you if anything happens though!"Wendy and Lillie nodded before walking over to sit on the sofa.After thinking for a while, Diane said to her secretary, "Could you make them each a cup of coffee please?" She then walked to her office, opened the door, and went in. When she entered, she discovered that the person heading the negotiations was actually a young man in his 20s, and he seemed a little handsome at first glance."Miss Diane, yo
Diane was fuming, and her chest was heaving up and down. She never once thought that the other party would have that sort of idea, and yet his disgusting offer had proven that she had completely misjudged him!There was a bit of surprise in Quintus's expression because he believed that all women loved money, or at least, all the women he met in the past. However, he soon realized that the Shanahans were already excelling in their progress, with more and more companies willing to sign contracts with them with every passing day.However, the key was that even if such contracts were signed, the money earned by the Shanahan Corporation would go to the Shanahans, and the amount that would end up in Diane's pockets was bound to be significantly less. At most, Diane would only get a salary increase, or perhaps a year-end bonus.When he came to realize that, he decided that he simply wanted to retaliate against Severin and therefore offered directly, "Hehe, I understand now. You won't get t
"Not even with thirty million on offer?" Quintus was shocked because he believed that not a single woman in the world would say no to money. Those who turned their noses up at it generally did so because the amount was too low.After giving it some thought, he finally said, "I really like you, Miss Diane, and I want you very much. How does forty-five million sound then?""I told you to leave!" Diane's expression was as cold as before and she warned him, "Get out now, or else I'll call my bodyguards!"Quintus frowned when he heard that and an idea soon popped up in his mind. Since being nice to her was not working, perhaps he could try to be a little harsher to her and put her between a rock and a hard place. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth and he no longer spoke politely to her anymore. Instead, he began threatening her. "Haha, do you know what kind of family the Novaks are? We're a second-tier upper-class family from Riverson, and I'm the son to the head of the family!
Quintus never imagined that she would rebuff all his approaches and even threaten him with a war chief in Valerian. He was initially a little taken aback, but he quickly came to his senses and smirked icily. "Haha, they always say that women with big breasts have pea brains. I didn't expect you to be so 'smart' as to use Mister Valerian's name to threaten me. It's a shame I'm not an idiot though!""Do you think I’m lying?" Diane asked with a frown.Quintus smiled and replied, "Of course! Valerian visited your home once. Do you honestly think he'll help you just because of that? Who do you think you are? The Shanahans are like a grain of sand to them. Why would he go against us for the sake of the Shanahans?"He then paused for a moment before continuing, "The reason he visited your house is probably because he thinks you and your sister are pretty. That's the only reason why he accepted your invitation. Now that I think about it, did you and your sister sleep with him last night? Af
Lillie was worried that the people outside might see the commotion, so she walked to the door and locked it as though she was about to give him an unspeakably severe beating.Diane was still in shock, and she immediately ran over to stand behind Wendy. She was fortunate that Wendy and Lillie had good hearing even though they were both outside and managed to rush in as soon as they heard her shout. Without them, an ordinary person like her would have been unable to resist Quintus's strength."How dare you slap me? You Shanahan bodyguards are too bold for your own good!" Quintus struggled to get up and looked angrily at Wendy, who was standing in front of himUnbeknownst to him, the two women in front of him were junior generals who had been on the battlefield before. For the record, junior generals answered to senior generals, who in turn answered to the war chiefs. Such individuals had exceptionally strong combat strength, and the two women had a particular loathing for perverts who
When Quintus had left, Lillie walked over and asked concernedly, "Are you all right, Ma'am?"Diane smiled wryly. "I'm fine, but don't you think you were a little too aggressive? He's the scion of the Novaks—a second-tier family in Riverson!""Don't be afraid, ma'am. We're here." Wendy immediately comforted her. "We held back when we beat him up earlier, and if our temper was still the same as it was in the past, he would've died several times over already!"Lillie also said, "Yeah! If Mister Severin was here, that guy will be at least half dead by now if not dead, especially since he was trying to do something nasty to you! He might even have his manhood destroyed by Mister Severin!"When Wendy heard that, she could not help but cover her mouth and giggle. "You're ruthless, Lillie. Did you want to destroy his manhood?"Lillie blushed immediately and said, "I didn't say that, Wendy! What I'm saying is, Mister Severin would probably do that to the guy if he was here!"Quintus was f
Meanwhile, Severin was taking a walk in his yard at the villa when he was greeted by the sudden appearance of Theo and another eight men."Come out here and die, Severin!" Theo shouted as soon as he went up to the gate.Severin—along with his female bodyguards Kiera, Abigail, and several of the male bodyguards he hired after them—rushed out immediately. He glanced at the three people holding samurai swords behind Theo and could not help but sneer, "Aren't you afraid of revealing your identity like that? It's rare for us to have visitors from Cherridom!""We are the Slasher Gang, and you beat up our brother Cain. We're his sworn brother, so we shall avenge him today by killing you and bringing your head to him on a platter!" Theo gritted his teeth and glared at Severin.Severin looked at them contemptuously. "Are you sure? Well, I'm curious to see if you can handle my two female bodyguards!""What about us?" The male bodyguards frowned instantly and wondered why they were not asked
