When Severin saw Sheila getting into his car, he could not help but laughed bitterly and said, "Sheila, don't you have a Ferrari?""I prefer going in your car. Don't worry, I'll ask my bodyguards to follow us from behind," said Sheila happily.After a pause, she added, "I bet you must be feeling pretty good about yourself when I pretended to be your girlfriend. You should buy me a meal to thank me for willingly sacrificing myself like that.""But I didn't ask you to do that. You were the one who did it out of your own volition," said Severin a little helplessly.However, Sheila was as stubborn as ever. "Oh please, given our relationship, do you think I need you to tell me to do that? It's a given I would be willing to sacrifice myself to get you out of any trouble."She then shyly lowered her head and her voice became as faint as a mosquito buzz, "I would be willing to give my body to you too."Severin did not want to waste them arguing with her. Instead, he drove even faster and
"Miss Sheila is here?" Archie immediately stood up in shock. "Why would she drop by all of a sudden?"Both Ariel and Gunther were shocked too. After all, they had been wanting to build a relationship with them all this while but never had the opportunity to do so.After thinking for a while, Gunther asked the bodyguard, "Who is this Mister Severin you speak of? Miss Sheila had always been a loner so why would she come here with a man?"When Archie heard this, he also looked at the bodyguard with a puzzled expression on his face."Miss Sheila said Mister Severin is her boyfriend," replied the bodyguard with a smile."Her boyfriend?" Everyone was shocked and they all wondered when Sheila got a boyfriend."Let's go! We must hurry out to welcome them!" said Archie to Gunther and Ariel.Soon, the three of them came to the entrance."Welcome, Miss Sheila and Mister Severin. It is an honor to have you here."Archie immediately recognized the man standing beside Sheila. 'Isn't he Dian
"Gunther, Ariel, why don't we change the venue?" said Archie.Ariel was not happy about the whole thing. "I don't mind if it wasn't for the fact that we've already sent out the invites yesterday. Imagine what our guests would say once they've found out we've changed the venue."After thinking it through, Gunther said, "Ariel is right. The guests might think we don't have the money to have the wedding at Bloomington Hotel if we suddenly change the venue. So how about changing the date instead?"At that moment, Severin suddenly smiled and said, "You're right, Mister Gunther. It'll look bad on your family if you suddenly change the venue. How about if you postpone the wedding by a day or two? You can just tell your guests that the hotel staff has made a mistake with the booking."Archie smiled bitterly. He thought the same way too. In the end, he smiled and said, "Yes, that's what we'll do! We'll postpone the wedding by a day or two."Severin heaved a sigh of relief and then said gen
"Yay! This is great, honey. We just saved millions of dollars on the wedding!" said Ariel happily. "And all we have to do is to tell our guests that the wedding has been postponed by two days. That's little work for a few million dollars!""Yeah, we're lucky to have met a guy who's so generous as to foot the bill for our wedding," said Gunther, who was grinning from ear to ear."He's not only generous but also very particular in what he does as well!" said Archie with a smile. "With his connection with the Shanahans and Miss Sheila's backing, he could just have asked us to give up the venue with no compensation given. At least that's what anyone else would do but he came up with a win-win solution so I dare say he would go on to do great things for sure."Ariel frowned. "Dad, don't you think you're praising him a little too much? Mister Severin doesn't seem to be famous. In fact, I never heard anyone talking about him at all.""Well, that's where you're mistaken. Mister Severin is
Megan's jaw nearly fell to the floor. "Oh my god! Isn't this diamond ring and this diamond necklace the one the company used for advertisement? They're really one of a kind and they insisted on not selling it!" she said in shock."Yeah! I saw them on the TV a few days ago. They said they would never sell it so how did you get it?" Felicia was shocked too."Severin, this must have cost you millions of dollars!" Megan took a gulp before continuing to say, "You certainly have balls! I can't believe you have the money to afford something like this! Looks like you really love Diane huh? Even I'm jealous at how lucky she is!""Stop talking nonsense, you silly little girl." Diane did not know Megan and Felicia were so shocked so she quickly took Severin's phone, only to find her jaw falling to the ground as well. "I heard about this diamond ring and diamond necklace before. The necklace is called 'The One' while the ring is called "And Only'. The company said they would never sell these b
Megan was not the only one who thought he was bluffing. Felicia, too, rolled her eyes at him and said, "Haven't you heard of the saying 'Honesty is the best policy' before? You better tell us the truth now or else we won't go easy on you."Severin smiled ruefully and looked toward Diane. "Draco Hall is actually mine. I'm the real hall master there!"Diane nearly burst out laughing but after thinking about it, if what Severin said was true then he would have twelve halls under him, which would definitely shock Megan and Felicia. They would then think he was lying to them again and that was why Severin only brought up Draco Hall.Even so, both Megan and Felicia were so shocked that their jaw nearly hit the floor!"No way is that true! Are you really the hall master of Draco Hall?" asked Megan. She did not know what else to ask since she still could not really believe his words.Diane smiled and said, "What he said is true. If not, do you really think Larry would have so easily hande
"M-My d-deepest apologies, M-M-Mister S-S-Severin..." The woman lowered her head and started to tremble. She very well knew that people like her could never afford to provoke a man who could easily drop a deposit of 7.5 million without a second thought. Her fear was evident from the way she spoke.Severin's expression immediately soured. "What's the meaning of all this? Are you saying that you won't be selling me the pieces that I intended to buy? I dropped a deposit for them early on!" His aggressive expression startled the woman into a kneeling position to appeal for a different choice. "I'm begging you, Mister Severin! Please choose a different ring and necklace!""Stand up and tell me what's going on! I don't want others to think that I'm bullying you!" Severin's expression turned into one of distaste. Aside from paying a deposit for the necklace and ring, he even boasted to Diane, Felicia, and everyone else about what he did. Knowing Felicia's character, she must have already st
"Phoebe, you say?" Severin had an icy disposition as he immediately left the premises and drove to the Bloomington Hotel.Soon, Severin arrived at the downstairs lobby."Mister Severin, why are you here?" The hotel staff greeted him with a smile after seeing Severin showing up there. The previous day's incident, whereby their fat colleague was fired immediately and the manager was replaced, remained fresh in their minds. Judging from Sheila's tone at the time, Severin might likely become Sheila's husband in the future, which meant that he would be their boss. As a result, everyone was smiling and bowing respectfully to Severin when they saw his arrival.Severin could perceive the difference in their attitude toward welcoming him compared to the previous day. He could not help but smile bitterly as he asked, "Could you help me look up in your records whether someone named Phoebe checked in last night? I'd like her room number please, and give me an access card too while you're at it.
