Life After Prison

The middle-aged woman nodded. “Indeed. He ruined our plan, and killing him is the right thing to do. I didn’t expect Fifth Elder to fail in doing so!”

“Let me go this time,” said a bald man. Standing at a height of six feet, his arms looked like dragons because of his bulging arm muscles and he had a rather gruff voice as he spoke.

“Since you’re a level seven grandmaster, I believe that you won’t face too big of a problem if you went, Fourth Elder!” Tharran looked at the bald man and felt that he was a good candidate indeed. After some more thought, he said to the bald man, “However, I think it’s better for you to bring a few grandmaster- level protectors with you as well!”

The bald man nodded. “Sure. There’s strength in numbers, and our opponent will have to divide his attention when fighting. This will be a big advantage for us! I’ll choose five of our guardians to join me, and I, Janvar Runge, will be the one to decapitate Severin’s head!”

“It’s settled then. The expenses you incur on your trip there will be reimbursed, and you’ll also be

rewarded handsomely when you return!” Tharran finally stood up and said to Janvar, “We shall await your good news, Janvar!” Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

By then, Severin and Diane had finished their meal and returned to their villa in the Dragon Lake Vista. After Severin finished his bath, he decided to go to Diane’s room. When she opened the door and sav Severin standing there, she became a little nervous all of a sudden.

“Is there something I can help you with? It’s getting really late!” Diane blushed as she moved to one side to allow Severin into the room.

As soon as he entered, he sat on the bed and said to Diane, “Honey, you’re not jealous about Sheila, right?” His question brought a surge of warmth to Diane’s heart as she closed the door and walked over to him. Do you honestly think your wife gets jealous that easy? I’m more than happy that you turned out to be a proper father. I was always worried about whether you or not you’d be a good-for- nothing man after you were released.” Diane then became slightly emotional as she continued, “I hated you a little when I got pregnant, but it was also my fault for taking the initiative after we drank too much last night. I only let myself loose with you that night because my family was forcing me to marry Edward, but I still hated you because you went to jail right after you took my first time!”

Severin remained silent. Like Diane said, they had either been too wasted to think at the time, or they gave in to their desires under the influence of alcohol. In hindsight, however, Severin felt lucky that everything happened the way it did, because Diane was a good woman, and she was thousands of times better than Lucy.

Diane continued, “But after I found out about your family and the circumstances that they had to go through, I sympathized with them and decided that I would try to help them. I could sense that your parents were good, honest people, which meant that you were probably not a bad person too. It’s just… still feel resentful because you’re the cause of all the disdain and ridicule that I had to suffer!”
