“Maurice! I have bad news. Very bad news!” Judith rushed into the front yard in a panic while Maurice


    was resting there.


    “What’s going on?” Maurice was taken aback. He had no idea what was happening, but he could sense


    from Judith’s flustered expression that something was gravely wrong.


    Judith panted heavily. “I went out to buy some groceries earlier and heard some people talking about


    some guy who caused trouble at Lucy and Easton’s wedding today. There are rumors that the person


    known as de even showed up there with hundreds of men!”


    “Do you mean to say that our son went there to cause trouble?” Maurice was quite frightened by what


    he heard. If that was the case, then there was a possibility that his son might be killed. After all, many


    people vanished without a trace after offending the Loughs.


    Meanwhile, de was the kind of name that sounded like bad news, and it was more likely than not


    that he was a person that should not be offended!


    “Severin was nowhere to be seen when I got up this morning, and then there was that unknown woman


    who came over in a hurry to look for him, but left as soon as she found out that he wasn’t home! This is


    very bad! Severin must be in trouble! What should we do?” Judith asked anxiously.


    “What did those people say, exactly? Didn’t you ask what happened next? Severin hasn’te back


    yet even though it’s already past noon. Do you think something could have happened to him? “Maurice


    was starting to panic too, and he was at a loss over what to do next. After all, it was already about four


    or five o’clock in thete afternoon, and the wedding would already have ended


    much earlier.


    “I rushed back after I heard what they said and didn’t ask any other questions. I’m worried, Maurice.


    What if Severin’s in trouble again? He was just released! How are we going to live our days if he goes


    back to prison? What are we going to do if they beat him up and crippled him? Or worse…killed him?!”


    Judith could not bear to think of the situation that Severin might be facing.


    At that moment, a small car drove right past the gate and parked in the front yard.

    “Whose car could it be?” Maurice and Judith looked at each other in confusion, and they could see that


    the car seemed to be rather fresh out of the showroom. Soon, Severin, Diane, and Selene got down.


    “Severin? What’s happening?” Judith was relieved to see Severin return. “What’s with the car?”


    Severin smiled and said, “I bought it!”


    “You b-b-b-bought it? Where did you get the money to buy it?” Judith uttered in disbelief. She could


    never have imagined the day when he woulde back home with a small car. As if that was not


    shocking enough, Severin was wearing a handsome set of new clothes, and even his shoes were


    brand new and made of shiny leather. 1


    “Well, I wanted to buy an Audi or a BMW, but Diane didn’t allow it, so I followed her advice and got a


    Chevy instead!” Severin looked at the beautiful woman beside him with a smile on his face. He felt


    extremely lucky to have a wife like her.


    “Diane?” Maurice had been wondering who that woman was, and after taking a careful look at her, he


    said, “Isn’t she the one who came to our home this morning? Her dress is so beautiful that I almost


    didn’t recognize her anymore!”


    “Mom, Dad, this is my wife, Diane. And this little girl here is our daughter, Selene!” Severin smiled,


    stepped forward, and took Diane’s hand while introducing them to his parents.


    “Wife?!”


    “Daughter?!!”


    The old couple gasped in surprise and their jaws nearly fell to the ground. Their son had juste out


    of prison a day earlier. Seeing him with a car was already big enough of a shock for them, and hearing


    that he had a wife and daughter simply left them dumbstruck.
