All Chapters of Life After Prison: Chapter 1701 - Chapter 1710

Severin looked at Gilda and struggled to find the right words. After contemplating for a moment, he said, "You're right. As long as you don't take it to heart, these rumors will soon pass. People tend to be drawn to the latest gossip, but they'll eventually move on to the next new thing."Gilda nodded in agreement. "I know that nothing's going to change even if I get angry over it. I have reason to suspect that the Horizon Sect's members are behind this. There's a high chance that they're spreading it to tarnish my reputation." She paused for a moment before continuing, "In a way, that's a good thing. It's further proof that Frederick isn't a good person. I'm glad I didn't marry him. My life might have been ruined if I had."Severin felt a slight tremor hearing this. Gilda was indeed a virtuous woman with strong principles. After contemplating for a moment, he took a courageous step and gently held Gilda's hand. "You're an amazing woman, Miss Gilda. Perhaps you can consider dating me

In response, Severin smiled and said, "Narrow-minded people like her won't go far in the future.""Well then, I shall excuse myself now." Wuhlricht nodded and quickly departed.Severin did not expect his three wives to show up just moments after Wuhlricht left."Aren't you three supposed to be training?" Severin asked in surprise. He could not help but feel as though they had planned to come in at that moment.Sheila smiled and explained, "We were done for the day, and we were just about to chat with each other in the next room when we heard the sect leader paying you a visit. We were curious, so we couldn't help ourselves from listening in on the conversation."Severin was speechless for a moment and his expression soured a little. "Don't you think it's a little rude to be eavesdropping on our conversation?""Well, we couldn't help it! And you two were being pretty loud. We would've overheard you even if we didn't want to," Sofia said.Diane then added, "We didn't expect the co

Severin smiled wryly and said to them, "Well, if you're worried about that, then perhaps it's a good idea for you to stay behind and focus on your training.""Not an option," Sheila replied immediately. "We haven't been to the Paradise Secret Realm yet, and we're all very curious about it. Besides, aren't practitioners like us supposed to engage in more battles and face death fearlessly before we can improve? We need to go."Sofia chimed in and smiled. "We ought to be numb to death. If we fear for our lives, we will never be able to attain true strength."Diane added, "We've all been training super hard with the aim of entering the Paradise Secret Realm. We're not just going to abandon it halfway!"Severin nodded after hearing their determination. "I've been told that we'll all be separated when we enter the Secret Realm, but we'll usually find ourselves in the extensive forest within the realm's periphery. We can then make our way towards the center after we enter."He then pause

"Okay! We'll call you Gilda from now on! I hope you won't mind if we treat you like our sister from now on!" Sheila grinned as she exchanged glances with Sofia and Diane. The three of them were the only ones who truly understood the significance of treating Gilda as their 'sister'. Gilda's understanding of that was very different from theirs.Gilda smiled and took her seat. "Of course!" She then turned to Severin and asked, "By the way, do you remember what my dad promised you last time?"Severin thought for a moment and eventually remembered. "I do. He said he'd help me find a treasure that could help change a person's talent for attainment.""Then why didn't you ask him about it when you arrived?""Because he didn't say anything about it to me, so I didn't want to impose it on him. And besides, he might not have mentioned anything about it because he hasn't found it yet."Gilda chuckled and handed a small porcelain bottle to Severin. "You do remember! Well, my father promised to

Sheila's words made Gilda blush again, but the latter felt a tiny little glimmer of happiness in her heart. Gilda had developed feelings for Severin and wanted to try dating him. Her father seemed to think highly of Severin, and that was likely the reason he asked her to join them and bring him a gift. It was a clear sign that her father supported the idea of her being with Severin.Gilda, however, had her concerns. She was worried that Severin's three wives might not like her, or worse, resent her and bar her from joining their group. Nonetheless, her fears were allayed after she sensed their receptivity toward her. None of them seemed to dislike her in any way, so she felt that there was a good chance for her to be welcomed into their circle.Severin then kindly cut another large piece of barbecued meat and placed it on Gilda's plate. He smiled at her and said, "Have some more. Don't mind Sheila's teasing. She's always like that.""I don't mind it at all." Gilda nodded appreciativ
