Life After Prison

“Haha, bravo, Severin! I can’t believe you took advantage of Mister Henry’s lunch treat and stole the keys to his villa! You probably know that they don’t live here, so you swiped the keys off him and planned to live here yourself!” Easton laughed even more after hearing this. “I’ve seen many shameless people before, but none as shameless as you!”

Lucy taunted him too. “Being poor drove you nuts! I don’t think it’s too far-fetched that you went and stole a key. I mean, you did ask my family to return the dowry.” She then turned to the three security guards in front of her, “I think you should know that he extorted a hundred and ninety thousand dollars from me today. I bet you would’ve been tricked into letting him in if he came here in a better car, like an Audi or maybe a BMW. Luckily for you guys, he couldn’t bring himself to spend any money and bought such a low-end car!”

Jada agreed too. “She’s right. If you let someone like him in and he ends up stealing stuff from the villas, I don’t think you guys will be able to bear the responsibility!”

The three security guards were frightened to hear that.

On the other hand, Maurice and Judith pulled a long face as they stood at one side. They started doubting Severin and began to wonder if the accusations of him stealing the key were true.

Judith looked at Severin and firmly decided to believe her son. She said to Lucy and the others, Stop making wild accusations! My son would never do such a thing, so don’t slander him when you have no proof!”

“Slander?” Lucy grinned coldly. She crossed her hands over her chest and said, “That key is the proof right there! What other proof do you need?”

“I share the same view too,” Jada agreed. “This villa is worth nearly eleven million dollars, and it’s owned by the Longhorns. No other evidence can be more conclusive than this!” She looked at Severin and the others with contempt.

Diane had been sitting quietly inside the car all that time, but eventually, she could not take the insults anymore and stormed out. She then said to the group of people, “And what if Severin didn’t steal it? Do any of you have the balls to bet on that with us?”

Easton remarked straightforwardly, “Oh, Miss Diane, I’m curious where you got the balls to act so tough! No one from your family spoke up for you today. Do you think you’re still their beloved little daughter? I have to say, you and Severin are quite a perfect match! It’s amazing to think that you’d fall for someone like him. Did you knock your head on something? Because I think something’s wrong with your brain!”

“I dare you to repeat that, damn it!” Severin clenched his fists and was ready to charge at Easton when the latter made such uncouth remarks about Diane.

However, Severin’s parents held him back as firmly as they could and advised him to avoid being so impulsive.

“Hmph, you’re lucky my bodyguards aren’t with me right now, or else I would’ve settled scores with

you for this morning’s incident. But who cares. I’ll get even with you sooner or later!” Easton snorted coldly, and said to the three security guards, “Don’t just stand there! Call the police! He

should be locked up in prison for stealing that key!”

The fatter of the three guards said, “Sir, I’ve just called our head of security, and the management is now calling the Longhorn family to check with them. You can rest assured that he’ll be done for as long

as we can confirm that he stole the key!”

“Hehe, then we’ll be staying around here a little longer then. I can’t wait to see this guy get

arrested again! Hahaha!” Easton laughed out loud. “Man, this feels good! If we hadn’t passed by here, this guy would probably have been waved in already!”

In less than a minute, the head of security rushed over in person. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Have you called the police, sir? This guy must be arrested for stealing this key. There’s already solid proof that it belongs to the Longhorn family, the fat security guard immediately stepped forward and enquired about the situation, but what happened next left him completely speechless.

The head of security gave him a backhand slap and said, “Enough with your nonsense! Mister Severin here is the new owner of villa eight-o-eight!” He then went to Severin, held the key in the palm of his hand, and handed it respectfully to Severin, “Sir, I’m very sorry that my subordinate here was unaware that you’re the new owner. Your car hasn’t been registered with the system yet too, so that’s part of the reason for this whole misunderstanding!”

“Impossible! You people must’ve been mistaken!” Easton exclaimed in disbelief after hearing that.
