Chapter 259
Jada, who was standing beside Victor, complained to him.” Why did you have to be so stupid, Dad? It’s all over now. We lost the quota that originally belonged to us, and worst of all, we offended the Longhorns. Our life will only get more difficult from today on.”
Victor protested, “I thought I had a good relationship with Gideon, and that he’d come and help me. And besides, my
remark wasn’t straightforward at all. I just hinted that Diane
got the two quotas even though she just became the general manager. It’s up to other people to think what they want to
think.”
“You might as well have just spit it out after what you said. People aren’t idiots, you know.” Jada was even more speechless as he said to Victor, “Why did you feel the need to do that when we’ve already hired a four stars assassin? For all we know, the assassin will probably arrive in Brookbourn by today or tomorrow, and Severin will be dead by then! Your actions just caused us a tremendous amount of loss, Dad!”
“Damn it!” Victor immediately realized that he had been too impulsive earlier, and he could not help but say, “You’re right. It’s my fault. I just got so angry when I saw Severin, and I wanted to get back at him by making people think that his wife was cheating on him. I didn’t think that Gideon would
side with him!”
Jada smiled wryly and said, “The Longhorns gave the
Shanahans two quotas because they valued Severin. They probably thought that Severin could help them in the future. Is that really so difficult for you to understand?”
“You were in over your head, Victor! This is just frustrating!” Jada’s mother stomped her feet in anger too. Their family’s future would have been smooth sailing, but that had all
disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The Stones were incredibly upset, but all they could do was sigh. They then got in their car, but because they were still reluctant to leave, they merely sat there and spaced out.
“The ceremony’s over! The guests are starting to leave!” Jada looked over and could not help but smile bitterly when she saw
who it was that came out.
“It’s all Severin’s fault. He needs to die as soon as possible!” Victor glanced at the Shanahans as they walked out with a smile, and then directed his gaze to Severin.
“Goodbye, savior! I’m hanging out with my bestie this afternoon, so I’ll come by some other time to hang with you!” Sheila happily ran over to Severin and bid him goodbye.
“You’re welcome anytime, Miss Sheila!” Catherine reminded with a smile before Severin could even say a single word. The old lady might as well just kneel and lick Sheila’s shoes with
that remark.
“I’ll visit for sure!” Sheila smiled before running off.
“I think she likes you!” Diane commented after waiting for Sheila to leave.
“It’s not like she can’t do anything about it. I already belong to you!” Severin said nonchalantly.
“That’s quite a slick tongue you got there!” Diane rolled her eyes at Severin.
To Severin’s utter astonishment, Robin walked toward him on her own accord barely moments after the headache-inducing
Sheila left.
“Why is Robin, the daughter of a first-tier family, walking toward us?!” Stanley was a little nervous when he saw Robin walking toward them. After all, she was the stereotypical aloof woman, and her temperament was the complete opposite of Sheila’s. In addition, he had a thing for Robin since long ago, but he could only watch from a distance because there was unfortunately no chance for them to interact.
