Chapter 155
As soon as Severin ended the call, Judith stepped forward anxiously and asked, “How did it go? Is Larry coming?”
Severin smiled. “It’ll be fine, Mom. I helped him in the morning, didn’t I? He’ll be here!”
Judith breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Severin’s assurance.
“Keep bragging, kid! You have only one hour. If he doesn’t come by then, you’ll be in for a treat!” Manuel smiled coldly and did not believe Severin’s words at all.
Severin paid him no mind and walked to one side to smoke a cigarette.
“Look, Stanley. I bet Severin is smoking because he wants to relieve his anxiety right now!” Maryam walked up to Stanley and whispered to him.
Stanley nodded. “You’re right. He must be the kind who wants to smoke whenever he gets a little nervous. Doesn’t he know who Larry is? This is Draco Hall’s big shot we’re talking about! Why would Larry even entertain him?”
Time ticked by, and by the ten-minute mark, a few cars drove over and parked at the gate. Many of Draco Hall’s men then came down from the vehicles.
Larry walked in front of all his men, and to everyone’s surprise, he had brought a significant number of people more than two hundred men.
“No way! Larry came here in person?!” Stanley gulped and his expression soured when he saw who was leading the charge. If Severin could get someone like Larry to come over with just a phone call, then the old lady would probably value Severin even more.
“Oh! So, it’s you, Manuel!” Larry could not help but sneer when he came. There were traces of disdain in his eyes and hints of ridicule in his words.
“Hehe, what’s the meaning of this, Hall Master Larry? Did you rush here simply because the Shanahans’ loser son-in-law requested you to?” Manuel was shocked that Larry came, but he was not afraid of Draco Hall at all. They might be powerful, but their overall strength was about par with that of a second-tier family. Besides, the Chavezes had some skilled fighters too. Generally speaking, only wealthy business families like the Loughs, or third-tier families like the Shanahans,
would be afraid of Draco Hall.
