LIFE AFTER PRISON - Season 6 Episode 73

Gracie stole a glance at Severin and could not help but say, “Well, since everything’s almost done here, we can leave the rest to the elders. Equus Hall will be the biggest organization here in Brookton tomorrow, and even our city’s mansion wouldn’t dare to offend us!” After a pause, she added, “Are you still up for a couple of drinks? I still have some good wine back at my place, so why don’t we enjoy ourselves a little once we head back?”

Severin nodded after considering her proposal. “Sure. I would love to chat and understand a bit more about Equus Hall!”

The two of them then drove back with Gracie leading Severin to a villa area.

“Hall Master!” More than a dozen of Equus Hall’s people had been tasked to patrol the area at night, and they greeted Gracie respectfully once she parked her car and walked over with Severin.

Gracie nodded. “Thanks for your hard work.”

After finishing her sentence, she smiled at Severin and said, “Come on in, handsome. I heard Winnie calling you handsome, so I feel like calling you ‘handsome’ too. It sounds friendlier, and I think it’ll do just fine since you don’t want me to expose your identity!”

Severin laughed and walked in with her. “Haha, sure! I am pretty handsome, haha!”

The guys who were on patrol were all stunned after Severin left. One of them gulped and asked the rest, Did you notice that Hall Master was smiling!”

“I did, I did! I couldn’t believe she was actually smiling!” Another man was also amazed.

“She did more than smile. She even called that man ‘handsome’, and they only came back at this late hour! That man followed her into the villa where she’s staying at. Do you think…he’s staying with her tonight?” A middle-aged man could not help but guess when he heard it.

“That can’t be! No! My goddess! Did this man manage to conquer her? I can’t accept this!” One of the men there felt heartbroken all of a sudden.

The person next to him rubbed salt into his wound and said, “Don’t even think about it. Your chance will never come! Our hall master might be beautiful and sexy, but she’s not that easily tamed. There must be something more to that man aside from simply being handsome. He must be skilled in some way too!”

“But I’ve never heard our hall master mention him before! When did he come into her life? He’s pretty bold too. Isn’t he afraid that the Skydrake Gang’s leader will kill him?” Some people had a puzzled look and began to discuss everything with each other.

Evidently, the group of people who stayed back on guard duty had no idea what happened that night. They were similarly clueless over the fact that Rod-the Skydrake Hall’s leader-was already dead, and that the situation in Brookton would change completely once the sun rises.

“Why don’t you take a shower while I’ll prepare some tidbits and get the wine ready?” Gracie suggested to Severin after they entered the villa.
