The smiles on Megan and Felicia’s faces stiffened, and Megan even said, “But how? You’re kidding,
right? I bet you’re just joking with us. Come on now, hurry up and show us the ring and ne!”

Felicia also said, “Yeah. Now’s not the time for jokes. The Shanahans are one of the best in
Brookbourn when ites to status. Who would dare to snatch something from under your nose?
Besides, didn’t you. already pay the deposit yesterday? Since you have, then you’re legally the buyer!
They can’t just sell the item to anyone else!”
Their surprised looks elicited a bitter smile from Severin as he said, “They’re from South County
Mansion. It just so happens that the leader’s son is getting married on the same day as I am, and he
had his eye on the same ne and ring too!”
“South County Mansion!” Megan and Felicia were shocked once more.
Megan frowned. “Guess we’ll just have to give in. This is a county mansion we’re talking about! We
won’t be able to do anything, and it’s not like we can snatch it back from them!”
Felicia also had a gloomy expression. “Diane is so unlucky! You’ve already reserved the ne and
ring. and still those people snatched them from you just as you were about to pick them up from the
store.”
The next second, however, Severin smiled again. “Don’t worry. I’ll get it back!”
Felicia was utterly stunned at that moment and warned hurriedly. “You can’t be so impulsive, Severin!
You’re dealing with the South County Mansion here! They’re the strongest force in the entire south
county, and you can’t offend people like that!”
Megan also added, “Unless you have a death wish, you’d be better off not provoking them. Snatching
the ne and ring from their scion will only anger them all. When that happens, you’re not the only
one who will end up dead! We’ll be dragged down the mud too!”
“Hehe, rx, you two! It’ll be fine! I’m confident that the store manager will send it to me tomorrow!”
Severin chuckled and said nonchntly.
“Why would they? Aren’t the And Only Jewelry Corporation’s people afraid of the South County
Mansion?” Megan frowned in confusion..
Meanwhile, Felicia persuaded, “Let’s just leave it be, Severin. I care about my reputation a lot, and I
sincerely hope that my daughter can wear ‘The One And Only’. But when this is rted to our lives, we
must remember to ce life above all else. Besides, we can use still find pieces worth one and a half
million. There’s no need to insist on getting it back from them, understand?”
Severin saw how scared they both looked and immediately brushed them off with a smile as she said,
“I understand.”
“I’m d to hear that. Remember not to mess around with them!” Felicia breathed a sigh of relief after
seeing Severin agree to them.
Megan, who was beside her, said, “Don’t be too worried, Mom. South County Mansion probably has a
lot. of strong people, so I don’t think Severin will be able to take it from them even if he wanted to. He’s
just. joking with us!”
The two of them felt a little disappointed that they were not able to the ring and ne. In the end,
they did not stay around to have a meal with Severin’s family and left soon after.
The next morning, Phoebe went to the airport with the store manager after nine.
At that moment, an old man was carrying a box in his hand, and beside him were more than a dozen
bodyguards in ck suits escorting the box.
“The general manager came here!” Phoebe’s mouth widened in surprise when she saw that the
person. who came was the general manager from the And Only Jewelry Corporation’s headquarters.
She even doubted whether she had mistaken someone else for him when she first saw him arrive.
After all, the general manager who was responsible for managing the And Only Jewelry Corporation-
one of the most. important industries under the Sanchezes-was Carlito Sanchez’s maternal uncle.
