Chapter 253
Severin was utterly speechless. ‘Why does she have to be that excited? And to make things worse, she came up to me and gave me a hug in public!’
“Keep your distance and stop hugging me. You shouldn’t just throw your arms over a man, you know.” Severin reminded her hastily, and he was afraid that Diane would be unhappy to
see what happened.
“What are you doing, Sheila? You’re a big girl now! This is unbecoming of you!” Zachariah walked over and glared at Sheila. She let go of Severin in embarrassment, walked over, and pulled her father over to make some introductions. “It’s him, Dad! He’s the savior I told you about! He helped me out
big time yesterday!”
“Mister Zachariah!” Diane was taken aback at first and
wondered why Sheila was hugging her man.
When she saw Zachariah approaching them, she immediately looked over at him in surprise. Catherine and the rest of the Shanahans came over right away too, as they were curious to know what was going on at that moment.
Zachariah nodded to Diane, then looked at Severin. “Your actions are commendable, young man. My daughter said that she ran into a robber that day, and you helped her out of righteousness without asking for anything in return. It’s not
easy to find people like you nowadays!”
Severin smiled. “Ah, so you’re Mister Zachariah from Brookbourn Mansion. I just happened to be passing by, and the thought of getting something in return didn’t cross my
mind at all!”
After saying that, Severin thought of something and made some introductions. “By the way, this is my wife, Diane. She’s the general manager of the Shanahan Corporation. This right here is Shanahan’s old madam!”
Zachariah looked at Catherine, and said to her, “You may be old in the flesh, but you’re still very strong in spirit, unlike me. I’m not that old, actually, but I recently feel my body is getting much weaker!”
“Oh, you flatter me. I’m exceptionally old now, and I can never compare with younger folks like yourself!” Catherine’s face was full of smiles. She would never have the opportunity to talk to such a big shot under normal circumstances, and
Zachariah probably would not even be present there if it were
not out of courtesy to the Longhorns.
Zachariah could be considered the most powerful existence in
Brookbourn at that moment, and even the three first-tier
families had to show deference to him. Judging from the
situation, it appeared that Severin had saved Sheila from an 1
otherwise bad situation, though it remained to be seen whether or not such a relationship could be depended on in the future to allow further cooperation between the Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Shanahans and Brookbourn Mansion.
After the old lady finished speaking, she immediately said to Diane, “Why are you spacing out, Diane? Give him your
business card!”
Diane was unable to react because it was her first time
meeting such a big shot. After receiving a reminder from her grandmother, she hurriedly, albeit respectfully, handed over her business card with both hands. “This is my business card, Mister Zachariah. I sincerely hope we get the opportunity to cooperate in the future!”
Zachariah smiled faintly, took her business card, and then
asked his assistant behind him to hand over his business card.
“I heard that you’re as talented as you are beautiful and that
you’re exceptionally business-savvy too. We can most
definitely cooperate when the opportunity arises!”
“Yes, that opportunity will come for sure!” Catherine said
with a smile, drawing the envious gaze of many third-tier or
second-tier families.
“Hurry up and tell me your phone number, Severin! You promised me that you’ll give it to me if I meet you again!”
Sheila did not seem all that interested in the conversation her
father was having, and she merely folded her arms over her chest and stared straight at Severin. Her posture suggested that she would not give up until she got his phone number.
“That can’t be happening. Did Sheila just take the initiative to
ask him for his phone number?”
Some of the rich young men from other upper-class families were extremely jealous when they saw that scene.
