“Only ten in existence? Even those with a worth of billions might not have the privilege of owning
them?!” After hearing those remarks, the woman who had peed herself earlier proceeded to pee herself
again. She felt as though the neurons in her brain had short-circuited.
Nevertheless, she still could not believe that a disheveled, hobo-like young man in worn-out clothes
could have that much money.
She looked up to the branch director and said to him, “This must have been a mistake, right? Who
knows if that bank card is a fake? Maybe it just looks the same? Do you really think someone like him
could own a card like that? Is he fit to own such a card?”
Severin frowned immediately after hearing that. “And what kind of person would you deem fit enough to
own such a card? Someone like yourself?”
The woman, though still somewhat reluctant to ept what was happening, kept quiet when she
remembered how strong his strength was.
The bank’s branch director said coldly, “I’ve only seen a simr bank card once, and that was by
chance. Who would have the time to forge a fake one and try deceive us?” After answering the woman,
he bowed slightly in a sycophantic manner and smiled at Severin. “Sir, may I have the honor of
personally serving you today? Just ask for me whenever you need to make any transactions in the
future!”
In fact, the bank manager did have a fair amount of doubt over whether Severin’s bank card was
genuine, but he knew better than to take a risk on the chance that the card was a fake. If his guess was
wrong and he ended up offending the card owner, he would almost certainly be sacked from his job.
Furthermore, it would be easy to find out whether or not the card was fake. The truth would be exposed
before any transaction could evenmence, and there would still be time for him to chase theContent protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.
fraudulent person away!
“Well, the thing is, I don’t know just how much money is inside this card. It was given to me by
someone else, and I came here because I wanted to check the bnce! While I’m at it, I’d like you to
link my cell phone number so the SMS notification service can be activated. That’ll make it easier for
me to check the bnce whenever I want!”
Severin’s nonchnce nearly left everyone present there aghast.
“That bank card has to be a fake, right? Who’d be so stupid as to give him something like that?” The
rich woman was secretly delighted to hear that and stood up at once. “You’ve just exposed your own
lies!”
Severin, however, pped her with the back of his hand once more. “You sure talk a lot of nonsense.”
“You! You pped me again!” The woman was even more aggrieved than before. She squatted on the
ground again and started crying,menting that Severincked ethics and had no hesitation in pping
women!
“Alright then, Sir. Doe with me. May I ask for your name, please?” The branch director, however,
was very respectful.
“My name is Severin Feuillet!”
“How handsome, remarkable, and distinctive! A name like that will almost certainly propel you to much
greater heights in life!”
…
Severin came out a few minutester.
“Here’s my business card, Mister Feuillet. If there’s anything you need in the future, please feel free to
contact me. Serving you is an honor, and a great pleasure!” The branch director followed Severin out
and bowed even more than before.
“Um…Mister Feuillet, here’s my business card too. Let’s have tea whenever you’re free! You cane
to my house for dinner too if you like!” The beautiful manager followed him from behind as well. She
seemed to be rather desperate and practically only stopped short of inviting him to spend the night with
her.
The richdy and her bodyguards from earlier had not left yet, and she was dumbfounded when she
saw kind of attitude that the manager and the branch director were disying toward Severin. There
seemed to be no doubt, then, that the bank card had to be real.
After Severin left the bank, he looked at the card in his hand and smiled wryly before looking up to the
sky and saying, “Man, you really are a nutjob, aren’t you? The money inside the ount is almost like
a nation’s coffers! And you told me that it’s just ‘a little money’? Are you ying a prank on me? I nearly
had a stroke when I saw just how much money was inside!”
Severin knew that there had to be money in the ount linked to that bank card—after all, the Old
Wacko was a savant.
What Severin did not expect was the sheer number of zeros.
After pondering over his next move, Severin decided to get a haircut, then shop for some clothes so he
could dress better when he had lunch with Henry at the Richemont Hotelter.
After all, Henry was obviously someone from the higher echelon of society, and it would also be
inappropriate to visit the hotel if he was dressed as he was then. Once his long and messy hair had
been cut, Severin looked a little more handsome than before, as his chiseled face had an unwavering
character to it, while his short hair lent him a buoyant and refreshing look too.
“All that’s needed now for me to be a dashing debonair is a couple of decent clothes!” Severin looked
at himself through the reflection at the store entrance and could not help but tter himself.
Just as he was about to go shopping for clothes however, he saw a helmeted woman riding an electric
bicycle into a nearby residential area. Upon seeing her rear figure, ck hair, and the electric bicycle’s
design, Severin had a sudden realization. “It’s her!”
Indeed, it was none other than the woman whom he saw sending a money-filled envelope to his house
the evening before, the same one who had been secretly helping his parents. Curiosity immediately
prompted him to find out the woman’s identity, as well as the reason behind why she was helping his
family!
After seeing that she was about to enter themunity, Severin immediately followed her from a
distance. The neighborhood there was a bit old, and after the woman parked her electric bicycle
downstairs, she took off her helmet and let her hair down.
Severin gasped at the woman’s beautiful hair and side profile, for he was slightly startled to see that
she was an exceptionally beautiful woman.
s, he could not remember just who she was! He previously wondered if she was a rtive or a
former ssmate, but that did not appear to be the case.
The woman went upstairs in a hurry with a small cake.
Severin followed stealthily without making a sound. After the woman reached the third floor, she
opened the door to her unit and walked in. “Selene! I’m back!”
“You brought cake too? Yay, there’s cake! Thanks, Mom!” a childlike voice said from inside the unit, and
it was likely that the child was the woman’s daughter.
Severin felt an inexplicable twinge of disappointment after knowing that the other party had a daughter.
The woman was genuinely beautiful, and Severin felt that her beauty was almost wless when he
caught a glimpse of it from the side earlier. In addition, she has taken the initiative to help his parents
for so many years, which shows that she was kind at heart. Had she been single, Severin would
consider marrying her and giving her happiness.
Unfortunately, she seemed to already have a daughter that was about three-or four-years old.
When the woman entered the room, she did not close the door because she was carrying a whole bag
of vegetables along with the cake. She merely hooked the door with her foot to try and close it, but a
finger-sized gap remained as it did not closepletely.
Severin stood outside the door and looked through the gap to try and see the woman’s face, since he
might be able to remember who she was if she saw it from the front instead of only from the side.
The woman came out of the kitchen after putting the vegetables there, and she patted her adorable,
round-faced daughter’s head while saying dotingly, “I forgot about your birthday because I’ve been too
busy recently. Since I have day off today, I thought I could give you a special birthday celebration and
buy you a cake to make it up to you. Are you happy to hear that?”
“I am! Thank you, Mom!”
Selene’s face was full of smiles, but it did not take long for her to frown and pout. She asked
coquettishly, “When will Dade back, Mom? When will he be able to eat cake with us?”
The smile on the woman’s face slowly disappeared when she heard that, but she eventually forced a
smile again and said to the little girl in front of her, “Didn’t I tell you that your father went out to earn a
lot of money? Things will get better for us once he earns a lot of money!”
