Severin shook his head and said, “We both hate Cherridom, right? If Cain’s dead, then won’t


    Cherridom’s people be sending themselves to their death? I was considering killing Cain before I set off


    on my journey. so Lucy won’t have someone rich to rely on! She’ll be so pissed if that happens!”


    “Then why don’t you look for Lucy and kill her too?” Gracie blurted out without thinking. Severin,


    however, remained silent.


    Gracie frowned. A sudden realization urred to her and she saidmentably, “I understand why now.


    You value the rtionships you’ve had with people, be they romantic or tonic, and you must have


    loved her very deeply during the three years that you were dating her. If you didn’t feel that way, you


    wouldn’t’ve smashed that beer bottle over Easton’s head for her sake. I can imagine how difficult it


    must be to kill someone you once loved so much!”


    “That’srgely the reason. However, I’ve been patient with her time and time again, but if she pushes


    me over the line, I trust I won’t show her any mercy when that happens!” Severin thought about that


    possibility and smiled coldly in the end.


    Gracie admired him even more and could not help but say, “Lucy is a fool. She shouldn’t have left you


    back then. Having a man like you by her side is such a blessing! I’m even more jealous of your wife


    now!”


    Severin did not expect her to bring that up again and felt a little awkward. After all, what clearer sign


    could a woman give when she tells a man that she envies his wife? She would not have said


    something like that if she did not have that idea in mind.


    “Ahem, let’s have a drink!” Severin cleared his throat and raised a ss to her.


    Gracie was in good spirits too, and she drank several cups in quick session.


    Severin looked at how sexy Gracie was and could not help but ask with a smile, “I’m sure many men


    have the hots for someone like you, Gracie.”


    Upon hearing that, Gracieughed and said, “Haha, I’m a tigress in the eyes of many people, and they


    wouldn’t dare to give it a shot at wooing me. Besides, I’m not interested in ordinary men. The only


    people who are brave enough to try and win my heart are people like Rod, who have ulterior motives


    and aren’t afraid of death!”


    Severin nodded, looked earnestly at her, and said, “You’re only in your twenties, and it couldn’t have


    been easy for you to manage such arge organization. Besides, if you’re not harsh enough


    sometimes, then. the others probably won’t ept that a woman like you is managing Equus Hall. I


    believe you’re a softie at heart, but it’s just your position that requires you to act condescending and


    cold all the time.” Gracie’s smile stiffened when she heard that and she bit her red lips while saying to


    Severin, “You’re right.. There are times I feel super exhausted, and I haven’t gotten any good sleep


    after Rod took a fancy to me! I’m really grateful for what you did today. I’ll drink three sses as a toast


    to you, Supreme Leader!” Having said that, she poured herself three sses of red wine and drank


    them all in one go.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.
