"You're not lending it to us?" Vincent's mouth twitched violently too, and his expression was such a delight to watch. He specifically thanked Severin in advance because he wanted to put Severin in a tight spot and force Severin into lending him the money out of a desire to keep up appearances in front of everyone. Although it was presumptuous of him, he did not mind doing anything as long as he could get the money.It did not cross his mind that Severin would refuse so directly as to leave absolutely no room for maneuver."Three hundred million isn't a lot to you, and this is the first time I've ever asked to borrow money! Aren't we close family? Why'd you have to say no?" Vincent still tried his best to smile, but his tone suggested that he was not very happy."Yeah, Severin, can't you see that your cousin can't get married because he doesn't have any money to buy a house? Don't you think it's a little mean of you not to refuse our request?" Vincent's wife had a sour expression at

"No way, Severin. You're kidding, right? That's a whole load of money!" Evan was taken aback and wondered if he had heard wrongly. 'Is Severin really going to give all that money to me? I've never seen so much money in my life!"Why would I joke around with you?" Severin smiled. "Back to my question, will that be enough?" Evan gulped and said, "Yes, of course! It'll definitely be enough to buy a small three-bedroom house in the suburbs, and that'll cost maybe a hundred thousand. That, and thirty-thousand dowry, comes to a total of a hundred and thirty thousand. That's already more than enough!"After thinking about it, he then said, "I don't need that much. You can just lend me seventy thousand dollars. I'll give her the thirty thousand as the dowry and use the remaining forty thousand as down payment for the house. I swear I'll return it to you when you have the money again!"Severin smiled. "That won't be necessary. I already told you that I'm giving it to you, not borrowing it

Gaston stood rooted to the ground as the corners of his mouth twitched violently. Borrowing money from the Emerald Cloud Gang was a foolish move. Their men were ruthless people, and he could not afford to provoke them.Besides, he asked to borrow money from Severin because there was no interest, and he could either pay it back slowly or perhaps even have the debt written off eventually. Had it not been for those two factors, he would never have asked to borrow money from Severin."What a d*ck. I got nothing after flattering him!" In the end, Gaston could only grit his teeth and drive away.…Finn's family arrived home very soon, and they were very happy when they recalled that Severin would give their family two hundred thousand dollars.Along the way, Evan could not contain his excitement and immediately said to his parents, "Mom, Dad, I'm going to meet Whitney and tell her that I can marry her now!""What are you waiting for then!" Edwina breathed a sigh of relief when she saw

Not long later, Severin, Diane and the others came out from the house."Grandma? Why are you here?" Diane immediately greeted Catherine. "Come on in, Grandma!"Beside Catherine stood Stanley and George, and their expressions sank slightly because they felt a little upset that Diane ignored them."Ah, it's you! Ma'am, George, Stanley. Please come in!" Judith stepped forward and greeted with a smile, which soothed George and Stanley a little more."This villa is truly huge and magnificent!" The old lady admired the big villa and could not help but express her awe.Very soon, Diane led them to the living room and invited them to have a seat."What brings you here today, Grandma?" Diane asked as she made tea for them. She felt rather happy because she did not expect that her grandmother would take the initiative to come and visit.The old lady smiled slightly and said, "Nothing in particular. I just wanted to come and have a look. After all, all I can do is envy this place. I used t

That night, the Shanahans went to a grand hotel for a celebration. Naturally, Severin's family tagged along too. Catherine was beyond elated and she praised Severin's ability the entire night. She even said that Diane had a good eye for men and had found a good home. Severin merely smiled at those remarks and did not take them too seriously. After all, he had gotten numb to all sorts of flattery.The only reason he secured the quotas was for Diane. Stanley had bullied Diane before, and Severin wanted to help Diane get revenge. That would at least warn Stanley not to provoke them anymore.As Severin looked at the happy smile on Diane's face, he felt that everything he did was worth it.…Everyone drove back to their own home after dinner.Diane had drunk a lot of wine that night and her cheeks were a little red. After coaxing Selene to sleep, she stretched her waist and got ready to go to bed too.However, she stopped in her tracks as she walked past Severin's room. The thought of
