LIFE AFTER PRISON - Season 4 Episode 3

“Hehe, you’re just an immature little girl in my eyes!” Severin chuckled and did not want to entertain her question. He parked the car outside her villa and said to her, “We’ve arrived, Miss Sheila!”

Sheila looked down at her bust and frowned slightly. “Is this still immature for you? What’s your definition of mature, then?”

Severin looked speechlessly at her. Sheila, being the immature girl that she was, had an adorably bubbly character. However, certain parts of her body seemed rather mature, and were further emphasized by the tight seatbelt around her waist.

His speechless expression amused Sheila greatly. She loosened her seat belt, but rather than getting off, she said to him, “You’re handsome and capable, so why are you such a coward?” “Me? A coward?” Severin frowned. ‘When was I ever a coward?

Sheila smiled slyly. “Yeah, you! I know many rich and capable people who have more than one wife, and the only reason you’re afraid of marrying a girl who is cute, good-looking, and has a good figure is because you’re a coward!”

“This isn’t a question of courage. I’m content with treating Diane well!” Severin smiled wryly. He had to admit that Sheila, despite her young age, was bold enough to speak her mind when it came to those whom she liked or loathed. Any other girl would never be so brave as to make such a direct remark!

“I know that you’re just trying to be responsible, and that you want to make it up for all the suffering she went through after giving birth to your daughter. I think she’s a good woman too, so I’m not going to snatch you away from her!” Sheila pouted, then smiled again. “She’ll always be the main wife, and I’ll be the second. I’ll even treat her as my big sister in the future! That should do it, right? You don’t need

to worry about me trying to hatch any sort of scheme against her. I’m not that kind of person, so you can rest assured.”

Severin did not know what to say. He was well aware that it took a lot of courage for a girl to say such things, especially when it came to upper-class girls like Sheila. After thinking about what she said, he persuaded her, “You’re a daughter of nobility, Miss Sheila. Are you sure you’re willing to be a second wife? Why are you even considering that?! You’re an only daughter, and I’m sure your father would want you to find a rich, powerful, and handsome man! He most certainly will not let you become someone else’s second wife. Besides, our age gap is huge, and it’ll be inappropriate!”

“Pffft!” Sheila snorted coldly. “Well that’s exactly what my dad thinks, but I don’t share the same views as him. I’ll decide who I want to be with, and I don’t care about the social status of the person I like. I’d still like them if they were poor, and I’ll never be persuaded to like someone that I don’t. That’s just how I am!” Sheila then paused and continued. “Besides, I’m not going to sacrifice my love life just to strengthen the Ballards’ status by marrying someone who’s similar in terms of social hierarchy.”

Severin smiled wryly. “Who knows, may you’ll get the best of both worlds and meet someone whom you like and who has a high social status too!”

“Impossible!” Sheila shook her head at once. She then looked at Severin. “I say that because the person I like is in front of me!”

That was the first time Severin had met such a difficult person in his life. Even his best efforts to persuade her had been rendered useless. Facing a thousand-strong troop of soldiers was barely enough to make Severin break a sweat, and yet a beautiful woman like Sheila had already made him helpless.

“Ahem, Miss Sheila. It’s about time for you to get down. I think being friends with you is good enough!” Severin cleared his throat and said with a serious expression.
