Life After Prison

Severin and Diane were just about to reach the car when Severin sensed the somewhat rhythmic footsteps of a man and a woman coming from either side of him. They were walking at a speed that could not be considered slow, and though it seemed like nothing unusual, there was something about it that was different from the norm. Severin was instantly able to sense that those two individuals were elite fighters. Moreover, he could not help but raise his guard because he could feel them targeting him.

“Walk slower behind me, Diane!” Severin quickened his pace all of a sudden and walked ahead of Diane, who frowned because she did not know why he suddenly decided to quicken his pace.

As she was just starting to wonder what was on Severin’s mind, Leonard and Carmen had already appeared in front of Severin. The two of them attacked Severin simultaneously from either side, and they both produced a dagger that they stabbed right at Severin.

“Ah!” Diane yelled when she saw what happened.

“What’s happening? Those are assassins, aren’t they?” Catherine was about to get into the car when she heard Diane’s yell. She immediately knew that it was a possible

assassination.

“Protect Mom!” George immediately ordered several bodyguards to surround the old lady.

“They’re here! Jada, the assassins you hired are here, and they’re already making their move!” The still-petulant Victor

was about to drive away when he saw that there was

movement over on Severin’s end. His mood took an immediateCòntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

turn for the better and he felt that it would be great if he could witness Severin being killed by the assassin.

“That can’t be possible. They’re already going ahead with the

assassination?” Jada was confused too. She had told Edward

that she wanted to have a look at the assassin to see if the

person they hired was capable enough, but the assassination took place before she could even meet them. She tensed up right that instant, hoping that she could witness Severin’s death at the hands of the other party.

When Severin saw two daggers stabbing right at him, he tilted his body slightly and leaned backward to avoid the fatal blow. The two level two grandmasters were startled by the speed

with which he reacted. Under normal circumstances, it would

be difficult for anyone to react to a sudden attack by level two grandmasters. Severin, however, seemed to have anticipated their attack and ended up avoiding it.

Severin might have successfully dodged their attack, but they

were not at all troubled by that. After glancing at each other, they switched the direction of their attack and stabbed

downward instead.

“You’re as good as dead, kid! Let’s see if you can dodge this one!” Frankie, who was not too far behind, snickered coldly to

himself. After all, there was no way for Severin to avoid the attack from that posture.

“SEVERIN!” Diane was frightened, and she immediately turned to find her family’s bodyguards. All of them were protecting her grandmother and the other family members, meaning it would be too late for them to save Severin even if

they rushed over at that instant.

Diane’s heart was beating so hard that it nearly popped out of

her chest. ‘Will Selene have to lose her father forever now that he had returned after all those years? Will the happiness that finally came into my life disappear again?’ She could not bring

herself to imagine what she would do and how she would live
