LIFE AFTER PRISON - Season 7 Episode 45

Megan was not the only one who thought he was bluffing. Felicia, too, rolled her eyes at him and said, ” Haven’t you heard of the saying ‘Honesty is the best policy’ before? You better tell us the truth now or else we won’t go easy on you.”

Severin smiled ruefully and looked toward Diane. “Draco Hall is actually mine. I’m the real hall master there!”

Diane nearly burst out laughing but after thinking about it, if what Severin said was true then he would have twelve halls under him, which would definitely shock Megan and Felicia. They would then think he was lying to them again and that was why Severin only brought up Draco Hall.

Even so, both Megan and Felicia were so shocked that their jaw nearly hit the floor!

“No way is that true! Are you really the hall master of Draco Hall?” asked Megan. She did not know what else to ask since she still could not really believe his words.

Diane smiled and said, “What he said is true. If not, do you really think Larry would have so easily handed over the Chavezes’ business to us? Do you really think Draco Hall is that generous?”

“Well, yeah. I’ve been thinking about it and the way I see it is even if Draco Hall is a hot potato, it’s still one of the greatest halls of all time. Therefore, there’s no reason for them to fear the Ballards so why would. they so easily agree to handing over the business to us and we only need to give them some stipend every year. In any case, this clears up a lot of things,” said Felicia as though the puzzle pieces had finally come together to reveal the final picture to her. “If that’s the case… doesn’t that mean that the money is just exchanging hands until it reaches the same person who started the whole chain? In other words…”

“Severin, you’re so smart! Our family will become stronger because of this but of course Draco Hall would also benefit from this since the Ballards or other powerhouses would not suspect anything. I must say your plan is genius!” The look of admiration became even more intense in Megan’s eyes. “In other words, once you married Diane, our family and Draco Hall would join together to become the wealthiest family in the whole of the city! Oh my god, even the Ballards wouldn’t be as rich or have as many businesses as us then! We’ll be the number one most powerful family!”

Severin immediately put his finger to his lips to make a shushing motion. “Don’t ever tell anyone about this. It won’t do us any good if the Ballards or other families find out about this.”

“Who cares about them? Miss Sheila is so infatuated with you that they will never do anything to us. Besides, you’ve always had a good relationship with the Ballards and who knows, we might even move. into their place one day,” said Felicia.

Severin was speechless. “I guess her love for money will never change.”

The next morning, the billboards at every bus stop in Brookbourn had been replaced with a picture of Severin and Diane. They were even a timer counting down to the day of their wedding. Severin and Diane had already sent out their wedding invitations.

Both Maurice and Judith could be seen grinning from ear to ear at all the times. They never thought they would see the day where they got to ravish in all the attention being piled on their family.

As for Felicia, she had never been more excited or prouder to see the picture of Severin and Diane on the billboards. Diane stood beside the bus stop and gazed at the billboard with tears in her eyes.

She quickly covered her mouth as the tears started spilling out of her eyes. At that moment, she felt that the humiliation she had suffered in those five years had been worth it She had finally found the man she could rely on, even though she had met him by accident.

At that moment, Severin had just arrived at the jewelry shop. He was all smiles when the shop owner came to greet him. He thought that the shop owner would be happy to see him too but at the sight of him, she started frowning unhappily instead.
