Chapter 52
Meanwhile, Easton was just as infuriated and clenched his fists very tightly when he knew that Severin was the driver. Having bumped into him less than a few hours after the ruined wedding, he felt as if the world was too small a place.
When Severin saw that Easton was there too, he got out of the car and asked, “What’s the matter? Are you going to try and beat me up again?”
“I…You…” Easton was so overwhelmed with anger that he felt like strangling Severin to death right. then and there. Having witnessed Severin’s fighting abilities that day, however, he knew that he would never be a match for Severin. In the end, he could only keep his composure even though he was already teetering on the edge of exploding with rage.
“Don’t be impulsive again, Severin!” Judith was worried that her son would offend Easton again. and immediately got out of the car to stop him.
“Is this the hothead you guys were talking about earlier?” The stylishly-dressed woman frowned at Severin and asked the group. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Patrick turned to his cousin, Jada Stone, and said, “Yup. This is the same guy who made a ruckus at Easton’s wedding today and demanded that the dowry be returned to him. Doesn’t that disgust. you?”
“Do you know who he is, Miss Jada?” The security guard asked after hearing their conversation. Does he really own a villa here? He has the key to one of the units.”
“Him?” Easton asked with a sneer. “Owning a house here? That’s just ridiculous. This guy’s poor, and he just came out of prison! How can an ex-convict who was released just a couple of days ago be able to afford a villa here?”
Lucy snickered as well. “Hehe, why would I marry Easton if that dirt-poor loser can afford a villa here? Only the rich have the financial ability to buy a home here! If you ask me, I think his key is probably fake!”
Maurice had gone down the car with Judith earlier, and they felt a little ashamed when they heard the accusation that the key might be a fake. After all, they felt that Severin could not have had the means to afford a villa there when it was probably very expensive even to rent it!
“The keys used here are very unique and cannot be forged. Let me have a look at it!” The fat security guard looked at Severin coldly and seemed rather petulant.
Severin smiled faintly and handed the key over. After scrutinizing it briefly, he frowned and said, ” It’s genuine.”
A sudden thought occurred to Jada and she immediately reminded the security guard, “Isn’t there a serial number on the keys? There aren’t a lot of villas here, so it won’t be difficult to find out which unit it is from the serial number! Not that it matters anyway, if it’s fake, no amount of forging can make it genuine. If it turns out that the key is real, then he probably stole it from the real owner!”
Patrick felt that Jada’s words made sense. His eyes immediately lit up and said, “Yeah! This guy
must have stolen a key from somewhere and wants to sneak in here to steal stuff. Money is the one thing he lacks now that he’s out of prison. If he could just pull a fast one and steal some
valuables, he’d be rich in no time! I was told that some of the homeowners here own artwork that is worth millions!”
After looking carefully at the key, the security guard said, “Eight-o-eight. Isn’t that the largest unit on the mountainside with the best location?”
Jada immediately laughed when she heard that. “Hahaha! He stole the key for sure! That
particular unit is most famous for being owned by the Longhorns. It’s just that they don’t live here anymore after moving to the new residential area down south!”
