Life After Prison by Silencieux
Chapter 148

Chapter 148

"Those three cars outside....did you buy them?" Catherine asked again.

Severin nodded. "That's right!"

The old lady then smiled and said, "But you were just released, weren't you? Where did you get so much money?"

Severin was speechless. 'This old woman is asking too many questions."

However, he felt that it would not be inappropriate to ignore her, so he smiled slightly and said," To tell you the truth, I met a savant in prison and we developed a very good relationship. He eventually gave me a lot of money, so these cars are like spare change to me!"

The old lady was stunned for a moment. She clearly did not believe Severin's explanation one bit, because in her opinion, whatever money Severin had must have been given to him by Henry Longhorn. After all, Severin had saved Henry, and it was logical to expect Henry to give Severin some money in addition to a villa.

"Well, we'll be family from now on! At the very least, you'll become the Shanahans' son-in-law. If Diane marries you, then you'd be part of the Shanahans too, right?" The old lady nodded and asked Severin again.

Behind them, George and Stanley glanced at each other but made no objection. Deep down, they did not want a nobody who just came out of jail to become the Shanahans' son-in-law. However, they did not dare to say another word since Catherine had already made her stance known.

On the other hand, Severin did not expect the old lady to accept him that quickly. Though she still looked down on him a bit, she nevertheless still accepted the fact that he was Diane's husband. He smiled slightly and nodded. "You're right. From now on, we're all family. Diane's family is my family too."

"Come now, let's all sit down and talk. Take your seat, everyone." The old lady beckoned everyone to have a seat and looked at Severin again before saying, "Our family needs your help with something, Severin. You won't refuse our plea as our new son-in-law, now, will you?"

Severin immediately understood why the old lady's attitude was completely different from the day of Easton's wedding. 'She's probably thinking about the Liberty City project!' That would explain why the old woman would have such a good attitude toward him and accepted him as Diane's husband so quickly.

After thinking about it again, he said, "You're right, Grandma. I'm one of the Shanahans now, and it's only right that I help the Shanahans."

Catherine was overjoyed when she heard that.

To everyone's surprise, however, Severin continued, "But this getting this Liberty City project isn't going to easy. Henry has already repaid the favor he owes me, and I'd feel bad for troubling him again!" to fool bad about? You saved his life, and all we're asking is to get in on the project.

Is it that difficult? He might think that you're a little pushy, but couldn't you lower your ego for our sake?" Upon hearing that, Stanley immediately stepped forward and remarked, "Besides, you are a part of the Shanahans now. It's only right for you to help us!"

Severin looked at Stanley, and then said with a faint smile, "Well, I can still give it a try, but I hope that you can agree to a small request of mine if I do eventually secure it for you!"

When the old lady heard that, her expression turned cold instantly. "Are you viewing this as some

sort of deal?"
