LIFE AFTER PRISON - Season 5 Episode 92

Both Judith and Diane knew Valerian would be visiting the Shanahans that day, though they did not know what time. The two of them had never met an important figure before, so they decided to dress up and drop by the Shanahans to see what the fuss was all about.

They estimated Valerian would arrive around eleven o’clock in the morning, and not earlier. than that since he was planning on having lunch. It was already a little past nine o’clock in the morning by the time they arrived at the Shanahans’.

“Grandmother, you look absolutely well!” Diane was happy to have received two-hundred- and-eighty- five-thousand dollars as a reward from Catherine. It was, after all, a kind of acknowledgment.

“I’m glad you noticed. It’s true what they say, how a person will look well when good things. are happening. I never dreamed an important figure like Mister Valerian would ever grace our home with our presence. The others must be green with envy at our good fortune,” said Catherine with a chuckle.

“I know, right? I saw all the valuable gifts brought by all the wealthy merchants in the city,” said Diane with a smile. However, after taking a closer look, she noticed Severin was nowhere to be found.

“Diane, where’s Severin?” Megan asked when she saw Severin did not come with Diane.

“I have no idea where he is. He went out last night after telling me he had some important stuff to do. He was still not back by the time we came here so I thought he would be here. Well, I guess I was wrong,” lamented Diane.

“How rude of him! Mister Valerian might not be happy if he found out not all of us are here to welcome him,” exclaimed Stanley angrily.

“He has no respect for the elders at all. What could be more important than Mister Valerian’s visit? He should have put aside whatever matter he is dealing with for a day like today!”

remarked George.

“Maybe he thinks he’s more important than Mister Valerian,” said Cherise provokingly.

Catherine had been quiet until then. Honestly speaking, she was just as unhappy as any of them at the fact that Severin did not come back since last night.

“Don’t say things that are not true. It’ll be disastrous for us if someone overheard us and passed on the message to Mister Valeria with a few exaggerated details,” chided Catherine when she heard what Cherise said.

After a pause, she added, “Severin is no fool. I trust that he won’t be late. In fact, he might already be on his way here.”

Another pause. “Diane, call him and tell him to hurry up. If he can’t make it on time, ask him. to come sneak in from the back door. That way no one will see him. And oh, we should all go. out in a big group to welcome Mister Valerian so that it’ll be hard for him to notice if Severin. isn’t there.”

“You’re right. However, at the end of the day, Severin isn’t related to us by blood. He’s only the husband of one of the many grandkids. I’m sure Mister Valerian would never notice a nobody like him being absent,” Cherise said with a smirk.

“Announcing the arrival of Mister Valerian and Mister Zachariah!” boomed the butler outside.

The time showed nine o’clock in the morning.

“Oh shit! He’s already here. I didn’t even have the time to call Severin yet,” Diane exclaimed with a darkened face.
