Chapter 152
*Tsk, tsk. The Chavezes are miles ahead of the Loughs, and yet Severin offended the Chavezes by beating up their patriarch’s son! What a troublemaker!”
“Hehe, Diane’s no better. She waited for all these years for that same troublemaker, and it seems to me that Severin would at least end up crippled, if not dead, today!”
Many of the Shanahans’ relatives or servants stood on one side and whispered to each other. Even though their voices were very soft, Severin still heard every single thing.
“Oh, Diane. Your husband sure is something else! I didn’t think he’d go so far as to beat up Mister Rufus! Tsk, tsk. I must admit, his courage is admirable. He’s like a lion amongst sheep! Your taste in men is quite unique.” Maryam, who had been holding in her grudges before, was also there. When she saw Diane and Severin coming, she immediately walked over, folded her hands over her
chest, and made some sarcastic remarks.
She believed that the old lady would not help Severin at that juncture because he was an outsider and not a true member of the Shanahans. Offending the Chavezes for Severin’s sake would not be
worth all the trouble.
Thank you for your compliment!” Diane smiled unexpectedly, and her reply left Maryam both speechless and angry.
Severin looked at Manuel, and said, “It was your son who tried to harass my wife and me, so I retaliated in kind. You of all people should know what kind of character your son is.”
Manuel knew his son’s character well, but he still remarked coldly, “Who are you to control what my son does? You’re the son-in-law of a third-tier family, and even Stanley shows the utmost courtesy whenever he meets my Rufus. What gives you the right to discipline my son?”
“Yeah, Severin, you’re too impulsive! Can’t you look in the mirror for once and understand your status in society? How could you beat Rufus up?” Stanley added fuel to fire from one side. At that moment, his greatest wish was to see the Chavezes’ bodyguards beat Severin to death. After all, Severin had used the Liberty City project to threaten the old lady into letting Stanley make way for Diane to take over his position as the Shanahan Corporation’s general manager. If luck was not on Severin’s side and he ended up dead in the Chavezes’ hands, then Stanley would have greater security in his position as the general manager of the Shanahan Corporation..
Rufus smiled coldly. “Do you know how powerful my family is now? You must be stupidly brave when you decided to hit me!”
“I hope you won’t accuse me of not being courteous, Catherine, because I’m being more than courteous already. Hand him over to us, and we’ll take care of the rest. You don’t need to worry about anything else after that!” Manuel said directly.
“Grandma…” Diane looked at Catherine in a plea for help, as did Felicia and the rest of Severin’s family.
“He brought this upon himself, Grandma. He also said he’ll take sole responsibility for his actions earlier. Just let them take him away!” Stanley persuaded. “Besides, even if Severin is beaten to death, Diane wouldn’t need to worry about remarrying because she’s beautiful enough. Edward is

still waiting for her!”
“Yes, that’s right. There’s no need to worry about remarrying You can always marry me. Mies Diane. I’m more than willing to marry her Rufus’s small eyes lit up. Tve admired you for a long time, Miss Diane!”
