Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 277

Chapter 277 

“Alright, it’s getting late. We should go to sleep!” Diane lowered her head shyly and added as an 

afterthought, “I’m beginning to like you more and more now, and you have no idea how scared I was when I saw those assassins attacking you today. I was afraid something would happen to you, and that I’d lose you!” 

Severin felt even happier to hear that and could not help but take the opportunity to say to Diane, “How about I stay by your side tonight, then?” 

Diane immediately rolled her eyes at Severin. “What’s on your mind, huh? Do you want to get it on with me after knowing that I like you?” 

“No, it’s not like that at all! Why would I have such lewd ideas? I’m not a pervert!” Severin said embarrassingly. 

“Hmph, all men are liars. How am I to know if you’re a pervert or not?” Diane snorted coldly and withdrew her hand. 

Seeing as there was no chance for him that night, Severin stood up in disappointment and walked toward the door. “It looks like I’ll have to sleep alone in an empty room again tonight. What a tragedy that I can’t hold my beautiful wife in my arm to sleep!” 

Diane felt smug when she saw Severin’s disappointed expression. “You need to be a good husband, okay? Maybe someday I’ll be so happy that I’ll let you spend the night with me!” 

Severin turned around and said, “What else do I have to do, honey? I’ve helped the Shanahans secure two spots in the project, and we have a house and a car too! I think it’s pretty good already!” 

Diane then deliberately said, “You promised me you’ll give me a wedding that will shock the whole city and make everyone in Brookbourn envious. I don’t remember you doing that yet.” 

Severin’s heart skipped a beat. Even though Diane did not seem to care much when he mentioned that to her in the past, it seemed that she did care about it after all, and with good reason too, since she had been the target of much criticism after he got her pregnant without marrying her. 

He thought for a while, and then said to her, “Don’t worry, honey. I’ll make it come true for sure, but there might be a couple of things I have to deal with in the next half month, so I might have to delay the wedding a little later. But once that’s out of the way, I promise I’ll make it up to you with a grand wedding! It will be the epitome of extravagant, and it’ll be a huge sensation not only throughout Brookbourn, but the entire south county too!” 

When Diane heard that, she said, “Yeah, yeah, keep bragging! You haven’t sobered up from all that wine you had tonight, I assume? The entire south county has more than a hundred cities, and your promise is a little over the top if you ask me!” 

“Haha, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. When the time comes, even the entire country’s women will envy you!” Severin laughed out loud. He was confident of that because the country’s war gods were all his apprentices. Moreover, they had only learned a small whisker of Severin’s true volume of knowledge. 

“You really are drunk!” Diane shook her head. “I was thinking about letting you sleep here for the night, but seeing you drunk made me change my mind. I wouldn’t want you getting all touchy with me halfway in the middle of my sleep!”
