Chapter 192
After venting it out, Edward tried to suppress his anger. “What did you guys say just now? You are asking Severin for help? Is Missus Catherin sick and needs Severin to save her? Or she will die?”
Felicia said, “No, no, no! That’s not it. Catherine is doing fine and very healthy. Do you know about Liberty City? We don’t actually have a chance to participate in it. But Severin has a good connection with Mister Henry. So we hope Severin could put in good words for us to get us to take part in the project. Severin assured us he can do that.”
Edward’s face looked sullen after hearing that. “He did save Mister Henry last time. But Mister Henry has already rewarded him with the villa and he probably received money from Mister Henry too. Otherwise, he won’t have the money to buy cars for you guys. I think that reward is more than enough to cover the medical bill. Shouldn’t he be content with that? Hmph! I don’t think Mister Henry would agree to it!”
He continued angrily. “He is so shameless! Does he think Mister Henry should help him out every time just because he saved Mister Henry once? Mister Henry will never like a person who doesn’t know his station!”
“Yes, I understand. But Missus Catherine runs out of options and decides to let him try. Who knows if it will succeed? We are also hoping he could suceed!” Felicia said.

He started his car engine after he hung up the phone and went back to the hotel.
“Mister Edward. How was it? Did you succeed?” Lucy asked hopefully when Edward was back.
On the other hand, Easton quickly pours a glass of red wine for Edward. “I’m sure it’ went smoothly. It definitely works when we have the photo and Mister Edward exposing Severin’s real personality. Here you go, Mister Edward. I know you come back to celebrate with us.”
Edward was boiling with anger and wanted to come back to vent it out by drinking. What Easton said only added flare to his irritation.
He accepted the red wine and poured it on Easton’s head. The red wine flowed down from Easton’s head to his body.
“Mis-mister Edward, you-” Easton was dumbstruck.
Edward smiled coldly. “What kind of sh*t photos did you guys give me? You guys didn’t check it through. I was so embarrassed! That woman is Severin’s cousin. Diane was so angry at me after she saw it. She even said I was meddling in her relationship with Severin and said she hates me more!”
He went to his seat, poured himself a glass of red wine, and finished it in one go. Despite that, his
