"This chandelier probably costs hundreds!""I think it's more than that. I think it probably costs several thousand!"As soon as they stepped into the house, the old couple was once again stunned by the sheer luxury within.Diane smiled and took Selene upstairs, with Severin following behind them."The living area up here is just as spacious as the one below. There are rooms on either side of the corridor too! This place does have a lot of rooms," Severin pointed out.Diane made an off-handed comment. "It's good that there are more rooms. Now you can have your own room instead of sleeping on the floor!"Little did she expect that her comment would prompt Selene to look up and glare suspiciously at her. "Shouldn't you be sleeping with Dad?"Diane's mind went blank for a moment. She looked at Severin before squatting down and saying to her daughter, "Who told you that moms and dads must sleep together?"In response, Selene asked, "Will I get a little brother if you don't sleep to
Blade was elated to hear that and immediately said, "Oh yeah! Why didn't I think of that? Our supreme leader is here, so there's nothing for us to fear if he's willing to help us!""Correct!" Larry nodded. "I believe, there must be something extraordinarily unique about him, else he wouldn't have become the leader of the twelve halls!" He then ordered, "Go forth and find out where he lives! It's too late now, but we can bring our men to visit him tomorrow or the day after! Do be aware that our supreme leader is our divine existence. Mind your words all the time and avoid angering him at all costs!"…Elsewhere, Severin was driving along the road when he spotted a restaurant that was rather tastefully decorated. He decided that they should have dinner there. As soon as they got out of the car and saw the restaurant's decor from a distance, Judith frowned and whispered to Maurice, "This place looks super expensive…"Maurice at Severin and Diane who were walking up ahead. "I think it'
Judith stretched her neck to glance at the price, and her face sank instantly Unfortunately, she had been told not to make any remarks about it and so smiled awkwardly while saying to Diane, "Go ahead and order whatever you like, Diane. These few years have been very tough on you, so you don't have to hold back on Severin's first time treating you to a meal!"Maurice was already mentally prepared for the food prices there. After all, few people patronized that establishment because it was beyond the financial means of ordinary people. Rich business people seemed to be the only customers there.After seeing the price, however, he still could not help his frown as he picked up the tea on the table and poured himself a cup.Diane just looked up at the old couple and could feel their uneasiness, so she smiled faintly and said, "I don't feel like eating oily food, Severin. How about we go someplace else?"At that moment, a rich young man happened to pass by with his group of friends, an
"Ah!" In the blink of an eye, Norman squatted down on the floor after Severin grabbed his arm. Severin's grasp was like a pair of iron clamps, grasping his wrist firmly and preventing him from moving even an inch.Severin was already doing his best to bear with the entire situation, but the man did not give it up and continued to overstep his bounds, going so far as to even slap his woman! There was no he could restrain himself from getting angry when things had gotten that far. A man in Severin's shoes would never another person bully the woman who had suffered five years for his sake.Severin exerted a bit of force and broke the man's arm with a crisp snap."AGH!" The veins on Norman's forehead bulged out due to the excruciating pain, and all it took was a little nudge to send him collapsing onto the ground."Ah, it hurts!" Beads of cold sweat dripped down Norman's forehead. He never imagined that Severin would be so strong as to break off his arm with just a simple grip."Norma
"I'm sorry that my son retaliated a little too harshly earlier, but it was your kind sir here who started it first. How about we sit down and talk it over? We'll pay for the medical expenses..." Judith immediately began begging for mercy when she saw that."Hehe, no can do, old lady. I'm priceless. Can you people even afford my medical expenses? If you can cough up one and a half million, then by all means do it!" Norman laughed condescendingly when he saw Judith's demeanor.Judith was completely dumbfounded when she heard that sum. It was simply too huge!The four bodyguards had approached them and were about to attack, but Severin knocked them all down in quick succession before they could do anything. All four of them winced in pain on the ground."How is this possible? Aren't you all mercenaries? How useless can you f*cking mercenaries be?" Norman was aghast to see what had happened."Sir, he's…he's too skilled! We're no match for him!" the bald man cried out while cowering in
"Go ahead and eat anything you want! But don't forget to let me know which ones you like best. I'll buy all your favorite food for you next time!" Severin looked at Selene's cute antics and felt his heart melt slightly."Okay! Thanks, Dad!" Selene nodded maturely and spoke very politely.Judith and Maurice exchanged a meaningful glance at each other and smiled heartily."All right, let's try this red wine! You don't get this sort of good stuff in prison!" Severin asked the waitress to uncork the wine and poured some for Diane and Judith."Tuck in, everyone! Make sure to eat your fill!" Diane smiled and then took the initiative to serve some of the food to Judith and Maurice."You should eat more too!" Judith was grinning from ear to ear too and she served some food to Diane in return. Slowly but surely, she grew fonder and fonder of Diane even though the latter showed up as daughter-in-law all of a sudden.After all, it was not easy for a young lady who was born into a wealthy fa
Norman urged his mother anxiously.Judith and Maurice were scared out of their wits when they saw all those bodyguards. It was the first time they saw such a formidable and intimidating lineup before. The next second, however, the woman gave Norman a tight slap."Sir, may I ask for your name?" The rich woman smiled awkwardly and asked in a groveling manner, much to Norman's surprise."Severin Feuillet!" Severin flashed them a faint smile."Apologize to this gentleman right here, Norman!" The rich woman immediately turned around and demanded her son say sorry."But Mom…are you sure?" Norman could not believe what was happening before his very eyes. Rather than helping to avenge him, his mother demanded that he apologize to the poor man!"Yes. Hurry up!" the rich woman rebuked sternly."Okay, I'm sorry! It was my fault. I hope you won't take that incident to heart, Mister Severin!" Although Norman resented being made to apologize, he knew that he probably offended someone he could
"Him again? Ugh, this is annoying!" Lucy felt even more disgusted when she saw Severin savoring some red wine with a big smile on his face."I can't take this. I'm going to get revenge!" Easton thought of a plan and clenched his fists while saying viciously, "Our family's strongest bodyguards weren't around at the hotel today. I think I'm going to make a call and get all of them to come here. Let's see if this b*stard can still go up against my strongest men!"At that moment, however, Jada smiled coldly beside him. "How can you be so dumb? Do you have to solve every problem with your fists? I hope you didn't forget who's the de facto owner of this restaurant."Easton's mind went blank for a moment but he was soon overwhelmed with joy. "Do you already have a plan in mind?"A smirk appeared across Jada's face. "If he's bold enough to eat at my restaurant, I'll make sure he won't be able to afford this meal! Let's shame him and his family!"Lucy, however, scoffed at that plan. "Hehe,
