Chapter 539
Jada scoffed. “What has gotten into me? Haha! I’m scared! I’m terrified after witnessing how powerful Severin is! We had crossed him three times and he had been merciful enough to let us go. We also
promise that we will never plan anything despicable at him and walked in another direction so he won’t see our faces. I think we should honor our words.”
“Do you really think he let us go because we begged for mercy and he was feeling sorry for us?” Quintus sneered.
With a frown, Jada said, “What do you mean? Isn’t that what just happened? If Diane was not kind enough to help us, Severin was never going to let you go. Most probably, you no longer have your balls intact anymore!”
Quintus let out a rueful smile. “He’s just bluffing and scaring me! Do you think he really dares to do it? There were afraid because my cousin is a junior general! Plus, he is under Mister Arthur, the senior general and a close confidant of Mister Arthur. Do you think I will be afraid of Severin?”
“Sigh. Quintus, I’m still scared. Severin had always managed to surpass our expectations. Zachariah also mentioned how closed Severin and Mister Valerian were. Mister Valerian also promised that he would attend Severin’s wedding. What if what Zachariah said was the truth? What are we going to do if Severin has Mister Valerian’s strong support? It’s going to be useless even if your cousin or Mister Arthur is there to help us!” Jada said with fear.
Then she added after a pause, “Do you seriously think Mister Arthur will help your cousin if he is in trouble?”
“What nonsense are you talking about? Nothing bad is going to happen to my cousin!” Quintus said.
After a pause, he continued, “Obviously Zachariah was just bluffing to trick us. How could Mister Valerian attend Severin’s wedding? How could someone who spent the last five years in prison be in contact with Mister Valerian?”
Jada thought about it and nodded because she agreed with Quintus. “Yea, you’re right. But he had let us go three times. You knelt down and told him you will never do it again. I think let’s just forget about it. We should keep our promises.”
Quintus became red with anger and said angrily, “Jada, it’s no longer just some kind of feud between you and him! It’s between me and him now! It was a measure of expediency. Do you get it? As a man, I know when it is time to bend my back.”
Jada did not retort immediately. Instead, she gave Quintus a solemn glare. “You better have strong. confidence that you can kill him the next time you plan an act of revenge. Otherwise, he is never going to let you go and will definitely kill you without hesitation!”
“Don’t worry. I know he’s very powerful. I doubt the guardians of my family are his match. So I won’t take any risk this time. I’m going to head back to Riverson for now. When my cousin is back, I will seek his help. He’s a warrior king. Killing Severin is going to be a piece of cake for him,” Quintus said with a smile.
“Warrior king? Is he very strong?” Jada asked curiously because she had no idea about the fighter’s ranking.
Quintus said, “Geez, I don’t know how to explain it to you. Anyway, the warrior king is a lot stronger than the profound master. At least, from what I see, there is no warrior king living in Brookbourn. As for Riverson, I have no idea if there’s any warrior king protecting the first-tier upper-class family. After all, no one is daring enough to cross them.”
