LIFE AFTER PRISON - Season 7 Episode 11

Diane breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Severin would be back in another two days. Though she also knew that Lillie and the others were already strong enough, the way they respectfully addressed Severin as their master made it obvious that Severin was even stronger than them.

Severin chatted with Diane for some time before they ended the call and went to bed.

However, another couple who were lying in bed had insomnia at about an hour past midnight. None of Cain’s calls to Mehdi were answered, so both he and Lucy had a bad feeling in their heart. “Darling, they couldn’t have been killed, right?” Lucy finally asked Cain after some time had passed. Cain answered gloomily, “I don’t discount that possibility. I can’t get in touch with them even though it’s already passed midnight, so it’s quite possible that they were killed too. Are the female bodyguards working for Severin really that powerful? Not even Mehdi and his men are a match for them even though Severin was not around.”

“Didn’t you say that warrior kings are all super strong? Why are they still no match for Severin’s bodyguards?” Lucy shook her head in disbelief and still could not believe what she heard.

Severin had let her off the hook several times already, so there was no telling whether or not he would lose his patience on that occasion and decide to kill them both.

Cain pondered over the situation. “Don’t panic. If he does come looking for us, we’ll just tell him that we didn’t send those men. He killed the Slasher Gang’s men previously and incurred their wrath, which is why they sent another batch of men to kill him!”

Lucy rolled her eyes at Cain and said, “Do you think Severin is an idiot? Why would he believe us? Based on his current status and strength in Brookbourn, he could easily kill us if he wanted to!”

Cain frowned, knowing that that the lack of evidence would never stop Severin from killing them as long as he suspected them of playing a part in this.

“What should we do? How about we escape, Cain? Didn’t Edward leave Brookbourn too? As long as we leave Brookbourn and fly far away, then Severin won’t be able to find us! The money you have will allow us to live comfortably too!” Lucy finally suggested to Cain after giving it some thought.

Cain frowned when he heard that and smiled wryly at her. “Oh, Lucy. I’m a member of the Slasher Gang. and it won’t be that easy for me to escape. The circumstances surrounding Theo’s and Mehdi’s death are known by the higher-ups. Do you honestly think the Slasher Gang would let me off the hook if the two of us run away? If they know that Mehdi was killed, they would send a more powerful person to take revenge on Severin! All we have to do is wait!”

Lucy, however, said, “I’m worried that Severin might kill us both before that powerful person succeeds in killing him. Are you sure the Slasher Gang will hunt us down if we run away?”

Cain nodded without hesitation. “They don’t know of your existence, but since Mehdi and Theo died in the process of avenging me, the gang will come for me and kill me if I just upped and left out of fear. I know their character too well. They have never and will never tolerate deserters! By running away, I’ll become a deserter in their eyes!”

Lucy was speechless for a moment because the situation seemed to have passed the point of no return.
