“Fifty minutes left!” Robert could not be bothered to say much and merely reminded Stanley after looking at the time.
Stanley’s lips twitched violently a few times. He knew that the people who owned the bar were powerful enough that the Shanahans could not afford to offend them. There was once a rich young man from a third-tier family who was crippled by a severe beating after offending the owners of that bar.
He did not want to end up crippled after getting beat up by those men, and although he felt. ashamed, he realized that he had no other choice but to bite the bullet and call his still- sleeping grandmother.
“Stanley? What’s going on? Why are you calling me this late?” Catherine answered the phone and asked Stanley.
Stanley was a little tongue-tied, but after considering his lack of alternatives, he cried out, Grandma! Severin is such a b*stard! He agreed to buy me a drink, but he sneaked off halfway through without paying! Now I can’t leave the bar, hic, hic…help me, Grandma! Please!”
After hearing that, Catherine said immediately, “Don’t be ridiculous. Why would he buy you a drink? Your relationship with him isn’t that good if I remember correctly?” The old lady knew very well that Severin was less than cordial toward Stanley due to the latter’s attitude toward Diane in the past. It followed, then, that Severin would never invite him to have a drink!
“But it’s true, Grandma! Severin treated Robin’s grandma this morning, and I helped carry his medical box. Once he cured Madam Jodie, the Zelankos gave him a hundred million dollars in return! He then said he’d treat me to a drink, but I didn’t think he’d sneak off while we were still in the middle of drinking.” Stanley immediately complained, saying that it was Severin who offered to buy him a drink.
“One hundred and fifty million? You can’t be serious? They couldn’t have given him that much money even if he treats her! You’re only spouting all this nonsense because you’re drunk, aren’t you?” It was clear that Catherine did not believe Stanley’s words.
Stanley then said, “But it’s true, Grandma! Madam Jodie has been using a wheelchair for a decade now, and Severin cured her legs completely! I don’t think it’s too much for the Zelankos to give him a hundred million dollars!”
“Where are you? I’ll come over with someone later!” Catherine said immediately. novelbin
“By the way, Grandma, this is all Severin’s fault! He backed out of his promise to treat me to dinner! And you know why? Because he’s sleeping with another woman right now! Tell Diane to come over and pay up! He was the one who said he wanted to treat me, so Diane should be the one who foots the bill!” Stanley suddenly had an idea. Since Severin had been bold enough to sneak away and leave him to be detained by the wait staff, he might as well go all out and ask Diane to come over so she could catch Severin cheating on her with Coco. It would be even better if she caught them in bed.
Stanley’s heart was overwhelmed by malice, and as he thought of his plan to get back at Severin, he was determined to make Severin regret everything.
“Is that true?” The old lady was a little angry as well after hearing that, and she immediately
said, “Send me the address. I’ll call Diane right away and ask her to come along too!”
After ending the phone call, Stanley could finally breathe a sigh of relief, he then crossed his legs and said to Robert, “Don’t worry, Robert. It’s just seventy-five thousand, right? You should know that the Shanahans and the Longhorns are on very good terms now, and things are progressing pretty smoothly with the Ballards and the Zelankos too. Seventy-five thousand isn’t much, and you can rest assured that the bill will be paid very soon!”
