Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227 

Not long later, Severin, Diane and the others came out from the house. 

“Grandma? Why are you here?” Diane immediately greeted Catherine. “Come on in, Grandma! 

Beside Catherine stood Stanley and George, and their expressions sank slightly because they felt a little upset that Diane ignored them. 

“Ah, it’s you! Ma’am, George, Stanley. Please come in!” Judith stepped forward and greeted with a smile, which soothed George and Stanley a little more. 

“This villa is truly huge and magnificent!” The old lady admired the big villa and could not help but express her awe. 

Very soon, Diane led them to the living room and invited them to have a seat. 

“What brings you here today, Grandma?” Diane asked as she made tea for them. She felt rather happy because she did not expect that her grandmother would take the initiative to come and visit. 

The old lady smiled slightly and said, “Nothing in particular. I just wanted to come and have a look. After all, all I can do is envy this place. I used to want to live in one of the villas here too. It is a symbol of status, after all! ” 

Diane smiled. “You can always stay here a while longer if you like this place, Grandma. It’s quiet and very comfortable to live in. The air is super fresh too!” 

The old lady waved her hands. “It’s fine. I’m used to living at the old place anyway, and Severin’s entire family is staying here with your family too. I can’t possibly bother you.” 

When Stanley saw that his grandmother was beating around the bush, he could not wait any longer and asked directly, “By the way, Diane, how’s progress with the Liberty City project quota? Any hope for us?” 

Diane did not know the specifics and Severin did not tell her about it either. She could only smile awkwardly and say, “I’m not too sure. Severin gave his word, so I’m confident he can handle it!” 

“His word, you say? Is his word reliable? There are only three days left, so where is he going to get the chance if he hasn’t settled it by now?” Stanley could not help but sneer when he heard that. It seemed imminent that Diane would have to step down soon. 

To everyone’s astonishment, Severin took out something that looked like an invitation from his trouser pocket and handed it to the old lady. “This is an invitation letter to attend the launching, Grandma. You do know what that means, don’t you?”
