Back at Brookbourn, Selene ran up to Diane on the morning of Augustfest and looked up obediently at


    Diane.


    “Mom! Where did Dad go? Why isn’t he back yet?” Diane smiled lightly, touched Selene’s head, and


    said,” Dad has something very important to take care of, and he’ll be back in a few days! Didn’t he tell


    you that he’ll buy you a lot of toys once hees back?”


    “He did! I hope hees back soon so I can have lots of toys!” Selene said happily.


    Diane smiled, but she was still a little puzzled nheless. She was unsure what sort of fate or destiny


    Severin’s master had previously mentioned to him, and Severin only exined that there would be


    great benefits if he went there. The exact nature of such benefits was unknown, even to Severin!


    “We can leave now. Everything is ready!” Maurice carried plenty of gifts as he walked out of the vi


    with Judith.


    “Sure. My mother just called us and asked us to be there soon.” Diane said with a smile.


    Severin’s wealth and power had been of great help to bolster the Shanahans’ reputation, and everyone


    including William, Felicia, and the rest of the family-began to treat him so much betterpared to the


    past. They even invited Severin’s family to spend such a momentous festival together.


    Not longter, Diane, Selene, and Severin’s parents went to the Shanahans by car.


    Elsewhere, Cain was being pushed out of the hospital in a wheelchair by Lucy.


    “Oh, my son-inw! You’ve suffered so much these past few days! Let’s go home and celebrate


    Augustfest together!” Lucy’s mother, Helga, immediately greeted Cain with a ttering smile.


    After all, although her son-inw was much fatter and also wheelchair-bound for the time being due to


    injury, she was still satisfied with him because he was much richer than Easton.


    “Hello, Uncle, Auntie!” Cain smiled and said, “Argh, I haven’t prepared any gifts for you even though


    this is our first time meeting each other. How about I transfer 1.2 million each to the two of you? Treat


    that as my gift to you! How does that sound?”


    “B-b-but we can’t possibly…” Landon remarked modestly.

    “Yeah, how could we? We’re a family from now on, so don’t worry about all that stuff. We’ve already


    reserved a VIP room at a hotel restaurant, so let’s head there and have a feast!” Landon immediately


    said


    with a smile.


    Cain smiled. “This is my first time meeting you both, so it’s only right for you two to ept my gift.


    Refusing it is a sign that you look down on me and don’t ept me!” After finishing his words, he


    quickly transferred the money and asked, “Lucy has given me your ount number already, and the


    transfer is -being done as we speak!”
