Life After Prison

Norman urged his mother anxiously.

Judith and Maurice were scared out of their wits when they saw all those bodyguards. It was the first time they saw such a formidable and intimidating lineup before. The next second, however, the woman gave Norman a tight slap.

“Sir, may I ask for your name?” The rich woman smiled awkwardly and asked in a groveling manner, much to Norman’s surprise.

“Severin Feuillet!” Severin flashed them a faint smile.

“Apologize to this gentleman right here, Norman!” The rich woman immediately turned around and demanded her son say sorry.

“But Mom…are you sure?” Norman could not believe what was happening before his very eyes. Rather than helping to avenge him, his mother demanded that he apologize to the poor man!

“Yes. Hurry up!” the rich woman rebuked sternly. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Okay, I’m sorry! It was my fault. I hope you won’t take that incident to heart, Mister Severin!” Although Norman resented being made to apologize, he knew that he probably offended someone he could not afford to piss off.

“You may leave now. I’ll count until ten. Get out of this restaurant and bring your men with you. I don’t want to see any of you in my sight. If I so much as see a shadow of your presence here after I count to ten, not even the gods will be able to save you then!” Severin threatened in a deep voice. Severin had barely started to count when the others turned around immediately and ran off.

After leaving the restaurant, Norman asked his mother, “What’s the deal with that guy, Mom? Why’d you slap me and ask me to apologize to him?”

“He looks like someone with a low profile, but I can assure you that he’s not the kind of person you’d want to offend. He has a bank card that contains one and a half billion, and these cards are issued only to those with that sum in cash. Money’s not the main point here though, because only ten of these cards were issued in the entire world, and he happens to have one of them!”

The rich woman let out a sigh and said, “I don’t think some of the first-tier upper-class families would dare to provoke someone like that, so we small-time rich folks need to be even more careful with him. Even a first-tier family might not necessarily have the right to get that sort of bank card. Do you understand now?”

“But how! I can’t believe he’s that sort of big shot!”

Norman gulped and hurriedly wiped off cold sweat from his forehead. He knew that he had screwed up big time.

“That woman seemed very angry, but I wonder why she slapped her son and told him to apologize to you.” Judith’s gazed out with a puzzled expression and could not process what was happening as she stared at cars driving away. That rich woman left just as quickly as she came!

“Have you met her before?” Diane frowned too because she could not wrap her head around what

was going on and had earlier been worried sick that something bad would happen to them. It came as a real surprise that the rich woman would tell her son to apologize and leave just like that.

Severin was in a bit of a daze too. He laughed it off and said, “Oh, hehe, she ran into me when I was chatting with Mister Henry in the park this morning. I suppose she knows who I am and is aware that I’m Mister Henry’s friend. Since she knows that she can’t afford to offend Mister Henry, she probably thinks it’d be best for her to leave this place with her son!”

“I see. She’s only doing this out for Mister Henry’s sake!” Judith breathed a sigh of relief after hearing his explanation and was not worried anymore.

“Yeah. Just sit back and enjoy the meal! Everything will be fine!” Severin smiled and heaped some more food on his parents’ plates.

*F*ck this. I can’t believe we ran into Severin again!”

Jada had brought Easton and the others to the same street, and they all planned to have a meal at that same restaurant. However, Easton had just taken a few steps after getting out of the car when he saw Severin’s family sitting at a table by the window. Although he had finally managed to lift his spirits a little some moments ago, the sight of them enjoying their food and chatting happily among themselves turned his good mood bad in an instant.
