Semua Bab Life After Prison: Bab 771 - Bab 780

Diane rolled her eyes at Sheila. "What are you talking about? You're very good-looking, and you're also kind at heart. How could you say such a thing?""Even though he saved me yesterday, I still feel like a useless person. His attainment must be very high, while I have nothing! My attainment is terrible, and I'd probably only be a burden if I stay by his side!" Sheila then said.Diane felt the same way before too. "We can train up until the level of a grandmaster, and once we reach level nine, we'll be able to protect ourselves a little. At the very least, we don't need to be afraid of normal thugs anymore."Sheila smiled wryly. "I don't have the talent for attainment. I've trained before, and now I'm a level five grandmaster, but I later heard the elders saying that those without attainment talent will never be able to have a breakthrough to profound master because they can't sense the spiritual energy surrounding them. That's the reason we can't have any more breakthroughs, and w

"Is that so? I'm happy to oblige. We can then see if your elders have what it takes to take me on!" Severin maintained his faint smile and walked in."Is he from Brookbourn Mansion?" Yacob asked angrily as he looked at Severin from behind.Beside him, Surina came forward. "No, he's not. He's probably from some small family!""Hehe, how dare he show such arrogance when he's not even from Brookbourn Mansion?" Yacob became even angrier, and after a moment's thought, he said to the old man beside him, "Tail that kid once the conferment ceremony ends. If you get a chance to kill him, do it without any hesitation.""Not a problem!" The old man nodded immediately.Manny, who stood behind him, was secretly reveling in delight. As long as Severin was killed, then Manny would have a field day dealing with Severin's woman. When the time comes and she loses her backing, she might just decide to be with him on her initiative."By the way, Mister Yacob, did he offend you too? This is quite a c

"These two can't be serious. They know that the Severin is going to be the governor, and yet they're bold enough to say such a thing?""They probably think that they had a good chance of being appointed to the position, so they're unhappy that Severin took the chance away from them. Why else would they be so bold as to question a war god like that?"The other mayors, whose chances of being appointed were very slim to begin with, started to whisper softly when they saw how brave Yacob and Regan were in standing up and saying such a thing."Unsuitable?" Calum's face soured, and he was obviously a little unhappy. "Who do you think is suitable then?"Calum's petulant expression left both Yacob and Regan trembling in fright. However, when they thought about how they might be targeted—perhaps even killed—if Severin became the governor, they decided that they had no choice but to step forth.Regan gritted his teeth. "Our main objection is that Mister Severin isn't the mayor. Hasn't the p

As soon as Severin put forth that question, both Regan and Yacob stiffened."Murderous intent? You wanted to kill him? Do you know who he is? Not even a hundred of your lives are worth as much as a fraction of his!" Calum had a gloomy expression when he heard that and immediately questioned Regan and Yacob.He then looked at Severin. "Would you like me to kill them both?"Had it not been for Severin's insistence on not causing too big of a stir in the city and his dislike of having his identity revealed, Calum would have called Severin 'master' already. Even so, many of the guests there were shocked because Calum's tone sounded like he was asking for advice, much like the attitude of a subordinate seeking direction from a superior."Spare us!" Regan was so shell-shocked that he immediately knelt on the ground. Then, his mistress Surina, along with his men, did the same one after another."It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! You got us all wrong here!" Surina had

Felicia was still a little heartbroken after thinking about it, and she could not help but to protest softly. "Even if you wanted to win their hearts, isn't a ten percent discount more than enough? Why does it have to be thirty percent? This is a huge loss of earnings!""It's not like we lack money right now. If we have a good relationship with those mayors, our business in South Link City will be much smoother in the future. As you probably already know, the mayors of many cities have their properties in South Link City, especially the nearer cities!" Severin immediately said."That's my husband for you! I didn't think you'd be such a business-savvy person!" Diane could not resist heaping some praise on Severin.Felicia finally conceded when she saw them singing the same tune. "Okay. Everything you both said seems to make perfect sense. So be it, then. A woman like me shouldn't bother about such things. All I can hope for is that I can get a bit more money to spend."Severin smile
