Chapter 11

"Timothy Tanner?" Severin's face soured as he looked at the grinning man in front of him. He was a little unhappy, but he forced a smile and asked, "What's with the two of you?"Quinn smiled triumphantly, "Can't you see? We're both married. We got married not too long after graduation! It's such a shame that you couldn't come to our wedding, but we understand. You were in prison, after all!"Severin's expression sank even more. Although Timothy and Quinn were all smiles, their words belied hints of a superiority complex. Perhaps they felt that way because Severin excelled back in college and was president of the student council!"Where are you heading, Severin?" Timothy asked."Oh, the Richemont Hotel!" Severin said casually."I see! You're attending Lucy's wedding too? Well, hop in!" Timothy smiled. "Don't worry, your clothes might be a bit old, but it doesn't really bother me. You should get the chance to experience what it feels like to sit in an Audi!""Sitting in an Audi, eh

"You can't be serious? Henry is treating you to a meal?" Timothy and Quinn were completely dumbfounded."That's absolutely impossible. Do you think he's just any old man? Do you know who he is?" Timothy then explained, "He is at the helm of the Longhorns', and the Longhorns are only one of three first-tier upper-class families here in Brookbourn. One small move from them will send waves through Brookbourn, and decision they make will change Brookbourn's future! Why would someone like that treat you to dinner?"Severin thought over what Timothy said and asked him, "What about the Loughs? Are they on the same level as the Longhorns?"Timothy immediately said, "Of course not! The Loughs aren't even a third-tier upper-class family, and at best, they're just wealthy businesspeople. Their business has been growing very steadily in the past few years, and they might just become a third-tier upper-class family soon. The Loughs' have a net worth in excess of fifteen million, but they're far

"You must be nuts if you think you can beat all those people, Severin. Don't go and get yourself killed!" Quinn, who was walking beside him, was taken aback by what happened to him. There was no longer any doubt that Severin was a foolhardy individual, otherwise he would not have been sentenced to prison at all."Severin, you came too?! What a surprise!" A guy in a suit came over at that moment and exclaimed with a smile.Severin merely glanced indifferently at the other party. "Fat Pat? You're here too?""Isn't that obvious? We're all college classmates, so of course we're going to attend Lucy's wedding!" Patrick Reece, whom everyone called Fat Pat, said with a sarcastic look on his face. He then added, "By the way, when you and I were going after Lucy, she looked down on me and got together with you. I remember how smug you were at that time. Look at you now. Can you even see what you've become? You dress like some hobo!"Upon seeing Severin's silence, Patrick continued to rub sa

Lucy took a step forward, glared fiercely at Severin, and said, "We couldn't get married because you went to prison, Severin. Am I to blame for that? Why should I return the money?" She folded her arms and then said proudly, "Living in poverty must've driven you crazy. You're asking me for money because you don't have any after coming out of prison, right? I wasted three years of my youth during our three-year relationship, and that forty thousand is just about enough to compensate me for the time lost. A little over ten thousand a year shouldn't be much, right?""Tch!" Severin never expected her to say that so righteously. Enraged, he glared at Lucy and said, "So is your youth all that matters? What about mine?" Severin asked while walking slowly toward Lucy. "I bought you whatever you wanted during those three years. Have I not been good enough to you? I'm on your beck and call. I listen to whatever you say, and I've treated you so well. And what about you? What have you done for me

Stunned, the four bodyguards then turned around and stared at the woman.Severin frowned, turned around slowly, and finally exclaimed in confoundment, "You again!" He was utterly dumbfounded when he saw her, because she was none other than the woman who called him a jerk in that dilapidated neighborhood earlier that day. Somehow, she was still dressed in the same food delivery uniform as she squeezed out from behind the Loughs' bodyguards.She was panting heavily, which obviously suggested that she was exhausted after rushing all the way there!"Who is this woman? Must be some nutcase too. Didn't she call Severin 'my man'?"Some of the guests went blank for a moment, and eventually they could not help but whisper among themselves."Who are you? Did you mistake him for someone else? Severin doesn't have a wife, so who are you trying to fool?" Lucy took a step forward and said to the woman in front of her. "Don't poke your nose in the Loughs' private business!"Diane looked at Lucy

Chapter 16

Severin's head was buzzing. He could not believe that he had a child, and wondered if that chubby and adorable girl named Selene was his daughter."That little girl…is my daughter?" Severin shook his head and found it hard to believe.Diane walked up to Severin and gritted her teeth. All the suffering she had experienced in the past five years were concentrated into the tears that welled up in her eyes. She slapped Severin without hesitation and said, "You b*stard! Don't you remember what happened the night before you were apprehended? Do you have any idea what I had to go through in the past five years, and how much anguish I had to bear?"Severin was so dumbstruck that he did not even stop her slap. He could feel just how hard it was for a daughter of an aristocratic family to be kicked out of her home whilst being pregnant with a baby. It was likely that she had gone through the nine-month pregnancy alone, with no one to even care for her.Her life was already hard enough, yet s

"I…I have a daughter…I really do have a daughter!" Severin was more than pleasantly surprised. He could not have imagined that he would receive such blessings when he least expected it! Diane had gotten pregnant with his child after a drunken one-night stand, and she later gave birth to his adorable daughter. To top it off, Severin could tell that Diane was a good woman, one that was selfless, kind, and strong!She was the kind of woman that Severin should protect, not gold-diggers like Lucy who placed vanity and money above all else.In addition, the woman standing in front of him had the kind of character and aura that was unhampered by her ordinary-looking clothes, and her near-flawless face was practically glowing with beauty.Diane had suffered a lot anguish and injustice in the past five years, so Severin secretly vowed to himself that he would make it up to her for everything that she went through—he wanted to convince her that she did not choose the wrong man, and he was det

"Why are all of you just standing there? Beat him up!" Trevor looked at the bodyguards and shouted."Just try it!" When Diane saw those bodyguards raised their machetes, her heart skipped a beat, and she opened her arms again to shield Severin. "My family might not care much about me anymore, but the Shanahan blood still runs in my veins! If anyone hurts me by mistake, then you'd best be prepared to face the Shanahans's wrath!""But…" The bodyguards immediately became fearful.Severin, who was standing behind her, felt a warm current in his heart. However, he took a step forward and patted Diane on the shoulder. "Leave this kind of stuff to me. I can handle it, so don't worry!""You? What can do you? Bragging is all you've got going for you!" Diane left Severin speechless with that remark.On the other side, Trevor frowned before eventually saying, "Alright, Miss Diane. I'll give you one chance today. I'll let the two of you leave if you can get someone from the Shanahans to plead

"Twenty minutes are up!" Lucy had been staring intently at the time, and she immediately reminded Trevor when she saw that it had reached the 20-minute mark.Trevor nodded and signaled for the Loughs's bodyguards to go ahead. To his astonishment, however, the Shanahans' old lady had reached the second floor just as he was about to raise his hand. Her two sons came with her as well, along with several other members of the Shanahan family. Behind them were than a dozen bodyguards, all of whom were wearing in black suits. There were more than meets the eye for everyone there.Although there were not a lot of people from the Shanahans, the Loughs' bodyguards consciously gave way when they saw that the Shanahans had arrived. After all, the Shanahans were a third-tier upper-class family. Their sheer influence dwarfed the Loughs, and the latter simply could not afford to piss the Shanahans off.Several guests began to gossip when they saw the Shanahans making an appearance."The Shanahans

Chapter 20

Diane's initial plan was just to inform her father, William, about the situation. Believing that a couple of remarks from William to the Loughs would be enough to persuade the other party to back off, her plan backfired when William brought both her uncle, George, and her grandma, Catherine along.William glanced at Severin and sighed. He was obviously disappointed with Severin, for he never thought that his daughter would get together with someone so worthless. It dawned on him that it was probably the reason why his daughter refused to say anything when asked about the child's father.Such a man was not worthy of being associated with the Shanahans, especially not a woman like Diane who had both beauty and brains. Diane's mother, Felicia, glanced at Severin and took a step forward. As she looked coldly at Severin, she said, "So you're the one who ruined my daughter's life? If it weren't for you, she wouldn't've been kicked out of the house, and our life wouldn't have been so suffer
