Life After Prison by Silencieux

Chapter 252

Soon, everyone lined up to enter the venue, and the luxury

cars in the plaza there stood out and attracted many an

internet celebrity to either snap some pictures or do a live

broadcast.

Severin went in with the Shanahans, and everyone was either savoring some wine or enjoying some pastries in the lobby before the ceremony officially began. Some chatted with their business partners, while others struck up a conversation with the children of some upper-class families.

Another first-tier upper-class family, the Zelankos, were in attendance as well. The daughter of the Zelankos, Robin Zelanko, looked at Severin and could not help herself from frowning. She then said to her father, "Dad, isn't that guy over there Diane's man?"

"That he is," answered her father, Harvin Zelanko. "Why are you suddenly interested in him?"

"I heard that Stanley Shanahan invited Charmaine Longhorn to a meal some days ago because he wanted to secure a quota, but his request had been categorically rejected. However, the Shanahans seemed to have secured that quota, and it was reserved well ahead of today's event too. I'm guessing that Diane's man was the one who helped obtain that quota from the Shanahans!" Robin then explained.

Harvin glanced at Severin from afar. "Are you saying that there's this kid has some sort of special connection with the Longhorns?"

There was a knowing flash in Robin's eyes as the corners of his mouth curled up a little. "It's more than just a 'special

connection'. I have the feeling that they're even trying to curry favor with him!"

"How is it possible that the Longhorns are the ones trying to curry favor with him? Hehe, even if he saved Henry Longhorn,

the favor that the old man owed to him should have been

repaid long ago. Why would he still have to curry favor with that kid?" Harvin smiled faintly and felt that his daughter was reading too much into the situation.

However, Robin said, "I was just in front of them when they came in, and I saw that they had two invitation letters in their hands, both of which had golden font. Think about it, Dad. Our family managed to get only one of the prearranged quotas, so how did the Shanahans manage to get two?"

"They have two prearranged quotas?" Harvin had a look of surprise on his face when he heard that because that would mean that the Longhorns have placed more importance on the Shanahans compared to the Zelankos.

For the record, the relationship between the Zelankos and the Longhorns was relatively good, hence the reason the Zelankos were given a prearranged quota that had a relatively good

location and was relatively large in terms of area.

"Yes! That's what I saw." Robin nodded. "That got me

thinking, why are the Longhorns trying so hard to please Severin? What could be so special about him?"

After Harvin gave it some more thought, he nodded and said, ' Let's make a point not to offend Severin from now on. We ought to try out best to establish a good relationship with them if we can help it. There has to be an explanation for the Longhorns' actions. They couldn't have just given out two prearranged quotas for no good reason!"

"Ah, my savior!" At that moment, a sharp yell was heard and drew everyone's attention over.

"What's going on? The Ballards from Brookbourn Mansion are here!"

Harvin glanced over and was surprised to discover that Sheila had arrived along with the rest of the Ballards. Even Zachariah, the head of their family, had shown up.

Sheila was very bursting with excitement as she trotted to Severin and hugged him gleefully. "Ah, we meet again, my savior! Didn't you say you'll give me your phone number if we meet again? Well, here I am meeting you again!"
