All of a sudden, a bodyguard ran in and said to Gideon, “Sir, some guy named Severin Feuillet wishes


    to see Miss Charmaine and Mister Henry!”


    “Hehe, speak of the devil!” Henry chuckled. He then said to the bodyguard, “Let him in!”


    “Understood!” The bodyguard ran out again and led Severin in after a moment.


    “Mister Severin! To what do I owe the pleasure?” Henry immediately greeted Severin politely when the


    latter entered. “Have a seat, Mister Severin. This is my son Gideon, by the way!”


    Severin looked at the dignified middle-aged man in front of him and cupped his hands in a gesture of


    greeting. “Pleased to make your acquaintance, sir!”


    “Hehe, you may spare the pleasantries. A lot of things have been going on in our family, and thanks to


    you, my father’s life was saved. I didn’t get the chance to convey my appreciation to you, but my ns


    to visit you were dyed time and time again by our family’s affairs…” Gideon said with a smile and sat


    down on one side. “Sigh, the opening ceremony of the Liberty City project is upon us, and the


    announcement of those merchants who have been given the opportunity to participate will be made


    soon. I simply have been too busy recently!”


    “You’re too kind. Saving your father’s life was a piece of cake, and he’s been super kind to me too. You


    could consider us friends!” Severin smiled slightly, and said in a manner that was neither too humble or


    overbearing. “I hope you don’t mind me being frank with you, but I’m here precisely for the quota in the


    Liberty City project. I can’t help it, since my wife is from the Shanahans.”


    “The Shanahans?” At that moment, Charmaine chimed in. “I’m sorry, Mister Severin. Stanley had


    approached me before, but I rejected him because I was under the impression that you had a bad


    rtionship with them because the Shanahans disowned Diane in the past and merely stood by and


    watched when you caused trouble at the Easton’s wedding in the past!”


    She paused before continuing, “I didn’t know that you’d have such a good rtionship with the


    Shanahans, to the point where you’d actually help them secure a spot in our project!”


    Severin smiled. “To be honest, Miss Charmaine, you were right to reject Stanley. He’s not a good


    person, and he’s the reason that the Shanahans have been slipping down for the past few years and


    lacked apetitive edge.” After a pause, he continued, “And to top it off, it’s a good thing that you


    rejected him, but the Shanahans weed Diane back home and reinstated her as the general


    manager of the Shanahan Corporation in the hopes of having me curry favor with your family. They


    even epted my rtionship with Diane now!”


    After hearing that, Charmaine covered her mouth andughed. “Guess I did the right thing and


    somehow managed to help you unintentionally!”

    Gideon understood Severin’s reason foring there and said directly, “You wish to secure a spot in


    the project for the Shanahans, yes? My doubt over their abilities have been ayed now that Diane is in


    charge of the Shanahan Corporation. How about I offer you two spots for the Shanahans?”


    “Two?” Severin was overjoyed when he heard that, “How could I possibly ept that? One spot is


    more than enough, especially since I’ve heard that it’s very precious! I think you should reserve the


    second spot for a more suitable family!”


    Gideon chuckled. “Haha, Mister Severin, you don’t need to be that polite. We just hope that you’lle


    to our aid if our family ever needs your help in the future!”
