“Fifty minutes left!” Robert could not be bothered to say much and merely reminded Stanley after
looking at the time.
Stanley’s lips twitched violently a few times. He knew that the people who owned the bar were powerful
enough that the Shanahans could not afford to offend them. There was once a rich young man from a
third-tier family who was crippled by a severe beating after offending the owners of that bar.
He did not want to end up crippled after getting beat up by those men, and although he felt. ashamed,
he realized that he had no other choice but to bite the bullet and call his still- sleeping grandmother.
“Stanley? What’s going on? Why are you calling me thiste?” Catherine answered the phone and
asked Stanley.
Stanley was a little tongue-tied, but after considering hisck of alternatives, he cried out, Grandma!
Severin is such a b*stard! He agreed to buy me a drink, but he sneaked off halfway through without
paying! Now I can’t leave the bar, hic, hic…help me, Grandma! Please!”
After hearing that, Catherine said immediately, “Don’t be ridiculous. Why would he buy you a drink?
Your rtionship with him isn’t that good if I remember correctly?” The olddy knew very well that
Severin was less than cordial toward Stanley due to thetter’s attitude toward Diane in the past. It
followed, then, that Severin would never invite him to have a drink!
“But it’s true, Grandma! Severin treated Robin’s grandma this morning, and I helped carry his medical
box. Once he cured Madam Jodie, the Znkos gave him a hundred million dors in return! He then
said he’d treat me to a drink, but I didn’t think he’d sneak off while we were still in the middle of
drinking.” Stanley immediatelyined, saying that it was Severin who offered to buy him a drink.
“One hundred and fifty million? You can’t be serious? They couldn’t have given him that much money
even if he treats her! You’re only spouting all this nonsense because you’re drunk, aren’t you?” It was
clear that Catherine did not believe Stanley’s words.
Stanley then said, “But it’s true, Grandma! Madam Jodie has been using a wheelchair for a decade
now, and Severin cured her legspletely! I don’t think it’s too much for the Znkos to give him a
hundred million dors!”
“Where are you? I’lle over with someer!” Catherine said immediately.
“By the way, Grandma, this is all Severin’s fault! He backed out of his promise to treat me to dinner!
And you know why? Because he’s sleeping with another woman right now! Tell Diane toe over and
pay up! He was the one who said he wanted to treat me, so Diane should be the one who foots the
bill!” Stanley suddenly had an idea. Since Severin had been bold enough to sneak away and leave him
to be detained by the wait staff, he might as well go all out and ask Diane toe over so she could
catch Severin cheating on her with Coco. It would be even better if she caught them in bed.
Stanley’s heart was overwhelmed by malice, and as he thought of his n to get back at Severin, he
was determined to make Severin regret everything.
“Is that true?” The olddy was a little angry as well after hearing that, and she immediately

said, “Send me the address. I’ll call Diane right away and ask her toe along too!”
After ending the phone call, Stanley could finally breathe a sigh of relief, he then crossed his legs and
said to Robert, “Don’t worry, Robert. It’s just seventy-five thousand, right? You should know that the
Shanahans and the Longhorns are on very good terms now, and things are progressing pretty
smoothly with the Bards and the Znkos too. Seventy-five thousand isn’t much, and you can rest
assured that the bill will be paid very soon!”
