After searching everywhere and finding no trace of Severin, She decided to ask her father about it.


    That was when she found out that he had already left with the Shanahans!


    “Ugh, why did he leave so quickly!” She pursed her lips and said angrily.


    It was already past four in the evening by the time they reached home. At that moment, he saw


    a beautiful woman standing by the road outside the vi, which reminded him of the


    arrangements he had that night.


    “There’s something I need to attend to tonight, honey, so I’ll have to go out for a bit!’ Severin eventually


    told Diane.


    “Okay. Don’te home toote, though, and make sure to go to bed earlier! Mister Valerian. will be


    visiting tomorrow, and Grandma wants us to be there early tomorrow morning! There will be a lot of


    guests, and we’ll have to help wee them!” Diane reminded Severin.


    Severin was speechless for a moment and said to Diane, “Going there a little earlier isn’t at problem,


    but it’s not like I’ll be of much help if I’m there. You know that I’m not familiar with those rich


    businessmen, and you’re the only one who can be of any help at the reception!”

    “Hah, I knew you wouldn’t care about this stuff!” Diane rolled her eyes at Severin and asked him again,


    “By the way, didn’t you say that you want to make it up to me for my wedding? When do you n on


    doing it?”


    Severin smiled awkwardly and said, “Sigh, it’s almost mid of August right now, and I have had too much


    on my te recently. I think it’s best to wait until after the fifteenth before choosing the day.”


    “Sure, I’ll leave it to you. It’ll make me look like I’m begging you for it if I keep pestering you! “Diane


    rolled her eyes again and seemed a little angry.


    Severin kissed Diane’s cheek and added, “Don’t worry, honey. When the day of your weddinges,


    it’ll be a sensation not just in Brookbourn, but all of the south county!” He vowed, then walked out of the


    home.


    As Diane looked at Severin’s rear figure, she could not help but smile and say, “He doesn’t have


    anything to do all the time, yet he keeps on telling me he’s busy. What could he possibly be busy with?”


    Despite uttering such a remark, Diane knew that credit was due to Severin for enabling the Shanahans


    to be on good terms with the elite few such as the Longhorns, the Znkos, the Bards, and Draco


    Hall. Without him, the Shanahans would certainly not have achieved such. great heights. That being


    said, she was also puzzled as to why Valerian would choose to visit the Shanahans when so many


    other families had given him an invitation.


    “By the way, Mister Valerian’s bodyguard seemed to have chatted with Severin for quite a long time


    today. Perhaps the bodyguard is his old acquaintance who helped put in a good word about us to


    Mister Valerian?” Diane mumbled to herself with a frown when she thought of


    that.


    By then, Severin had already driven to the roadside at the foot of the mountain where Candy was


    waiting for him. After parking the car on the side of the road, Candy got into the car while. Severin


    drove toward a park.


    “It’s quite early, and there are still several hours before the agreed time.” Severin looked at the time and


    could not help but smiled wryly as he said, “I would’ve set the time earlier if I knew I had to wait so


    long.”


    Candy agreed. “Yeah! I’ve been shopping all afternoon today, but I wasn’t in the mood at all. when I


    thought of how worried my dad might be!” She then added, “By the way, Supreme Leader, Lauren


    secretly sent me a text message earlier. She told me that my dad called her to inform her that the


    Blood-Drinker Gang’s second elder will follow along. My dad said he has no choice but to kill you.”
