Little did anyone expect that the owner of the hotel would show up there with the hotel's security guards.Everyone there moves aside so he could pass through.Severin looked over and saw none other than the middle-aged man who played chess with Henry earlier that morning. He wondered what the man was doing there."Oh, hello, Mister Monroe. What brings you here?" Trevor said with a smile.Denzel Monroe, the owner of the Richemont Hotel, glanced at Severin and said, "I was told that somebody was causing trouble in my hotel, so I decided to bring someone over to have a look at the situation. Could you explain what's going on, Mister Trevor?""This kid came here just to stir trouble! He even hurt my son!" Trevor pointed at Severin and said angrily. "I don't need your hotel security guards to take any action, though. Our bodyguards have already arrived, so just let me people take care of him!"Trevor paused, and said again, "Of course, I don't blame you for letting someone like him i

Trevor then asked, "Are you sure your men can put a fight against my men when your side has barely half the number of our bodyguards?"At that moment, however, one could see through the window that a middle-aged man was leading a group of men to surround the hotel. A number of those people barged in directly, and the total number of individuals that had arrived was probably at least several hundred."We're done for. The guys from Draco Hall are here!" Denzel's expression sank when he saw the situation outside."W-w-what are we supposed to do?" Diane was extremely anxious."Come here, Diane. Are you sure you want to die along with a poor nobody like Severin? Don't you care about your daughter at all?" Felicia squeezed through the crowd, grabbed Diane's arm, and dragged her to where the Shanahans were standing.William, who had also turned pale with fright, hurried over and took Diane's other arm in an attempt to help his wife pull Diane away from Severin."Think about Selene. How

Blade's lip twitched a few times. His expression became gloomy and a murderous aura began to surge all around him. "The ignorant ones are always the bravest! How dare you rebuff a gesture from the Draco Hall's second-in-command!"Severin smiled coldly and shot back, "I don't care if the first-in-command is here! I'm not going anywhere today unless I get my forty thousand back!""Have you completely lost it, Severin? Apologize to him!" Diane was so anxious that she was on the brink of tears! Losing a hand would be better than losing a life, yet he remaiend just as impudent as he always was!"Do you see it now, Diane? He's still thinking about money at this kind of time! I honestly think that being poor made him crazy enough to provoke Blade!" Megan said, then added with a snicker, "You'd be better off coming back with us and considering Edward. One and a half million is a very generous offer!"Diane shot Megan an irked glare. "Don't mention that name to me again!" Edward was a name

A smile that was neither self-important nor self-abasing unfolded across Severin's face."This guy is Mister Henry's friend? That can't be possible!""For the love of God, that kid was invited to have a meal with Mister Henry when even people like us aren't qualified to do so?"A number of wealthy businessmen were completely shell-shocked to hear Henry's words. Some of them even wondered if they were dreaming."How did he get to know Mister Henry?" George, the head of the Shanahans, frowned as well. Everyone there had been trying to get close to someone as powerful as Henry, yet none ever had even the slightest chance of succeeding. By contrast, Severin seemed to be on such friendly terms with Henry that the latter had took the initiative to treat him to a meal!Henry turned around and looked at Lucy while saying, "Aren't you Severin's ex-fiancee? Don't you think you should return the dowry now that you're getting married to someone else instead of him? And that one-hundred-and-

"Severin, you b*stard! You just had to ruin my daughter's wedding because you can't marry her, didn't you? It's not like you'll achieve anything with your actions. My daughter will marry Easton anyway!" Helga cursed at Severin as she was still resentful that her family had to return the 190,000 dollars.Severin could not bother to pay attention to her and looked at Denzel with a smile. "Thanks for your help today, Mister Denzel. I owe you one, so if you ever need my help in the future, just say the word."Denzel was secretly delighted to hear that. In fact, he was confident that Henry would help Severin after arriving there, and that was the only reason he dared to stand up against Blade and Trevor. Had he not known that Henry would show up and speak for Severin, he might not have dared to do what he did that day. Having Severin owe him a favor was a good thing of course, since he believed that someone whom Henry thought highly of would definitely be someone extraordinary!"You're w
