“M-My d-deepest apologies, M-M-Mister S-S-Severin… The woman lowered her head and started to


    tremble. She very well knew that people like her could never afford to provoke a man who could easily


    drop a deposit of 7.5 million without a second thought. Her fear was evident from the way she spoke.


    Severin’s expression immediately soured. “What’s the meaning of all this? Are you saying that you


    won’t be selling me the pieces that I intended to buy? I dropped a deposit for them early on!” His


    aggressive expression startled the woman into a kneeling position to appeal for a different choice. “I’m


    begging you, Mister Severin! Please choose a different ring and ne!”


    “Stand up and tell me what’s going on! I don’t want others to think that I’m bullying you!” Severin’s


    expression turned into one of distaste. Aside from paying a deposit for the ne and ring, he even


    boasted to Diane, Felicia, and everyone else about what he did. Knowing Felicia’s character, she must


    have already started telling the Shanahans’ rtives about it! She was never one to control herself if


    she had the chance to gloat!


    As a result, it was detrimental to Severin that he must get those exact pieces.

    The beautiful store manager stood up with a bitter face and said, “I don’t know the exact details, but the


    south county’s regional manager came over and she asked me to inform you that you will not be


    allowed to have the ne and ring you paid the deposit for. We were told that another big shot’s


    son is getting married on the same day as yours. Even though the price being paid for the items are the


    same, ourpany has no choice but to give them top priority. They even paid forty-five million as


    compensation to you for the inconvenience!”


    Severin clenched his fists and snarled, wishing that he could give the woman in front of him a p. On


    second thought, he realized that she was not to me and immediately held back his anger. He then


    asked, “A big shot, you say? What kind of big shot? Are they trying to make an enemy out of me by


    taking what was supposed to be mine?”


    The kneeling store manager was frightened after hearing his threat and hurriedly reminded him in a


    gentle. tone, “Mister Severin, I can assure you that you have a lot of power here in Brookbourn and


    you’ve prospered very well in this city, but that big shot isn’t from around these parts. The point is, you


    can’t afford to offend him! I’m begging you to look away and give in this one time, please!”


    Severin gave the coldest sneer after listening to what was said. “Give in?! I paid the deposit yesterday,


    but that big shot took the pieces that were supposed to be mine! How dare theypensate me with


    money without showing any courtesy of notifying me or offering to negotiate! Whoever that person is,


    I’m sure they have a death wishing!” Severin immediately reiterated to them, “Who is your regional


    manager? And where is she now? I want to meet her. I want to know who this big shot is and why I


    shouldn’t offend them!”


    “But…” The female store manager frowned after being put in a tight spot.


    Severin’s expression sank and he said, “If you’re not going to tell me, I can always send Draco Hall’s


    men over here to kill you!”

    Sure enough, his threat scared the woman into blurting everything out. “She only flew inst night, so


    she’s probably resting! I don’t know if she’s already awake by now… All I know is that her name is


    Phoebe, and she’s staying in the Bloomington Hotel. That’s all I know, I swear!”
