Life After Prison by Silencieux (PDF) novel Chapter 158

Chapter 158 

Stanley felt annoyed as he watched Severin and the others leave. He could not bear it any longer and said to his grandmother, “Don’t you think you’re being too hasty, Grandma?” 

In response, Catherine rolled her eyes at Stanley and said, “You’re an idiot, you know that? There is more to Severin than meets the eye. His relationship with Larry must be deeper than it looks since he could get Larry to come over with just a phone call,” Having pointed that out, the old lady paused for a moment and said again, “Besides, we won’t stand to lose any money now, right? We’ll be making a lot of money if he can secure the Liberty City project. If he can’t do that, then I can. always get Diane to relinquish her position when the time comes.” 

“Okay then.” Stanley accepted it on the surface, but he was still a little upset because he did not want Diane to be above him. 

“That felt good! Haha! I can’t believe I’d ever see the day when Stanley would be so deflated! His face turned ashen earlier!” Megan said with a smile after returning to their residence. 

“I couldn’t agree more! It feels like I’ve finally let my anger out!” Felicia was also feeling buoyant. 

William, however, did not seem to share much of their enthusiasm. “I’ll admit that it felt good, but Stanley’s the kind who is naturally vengeful. We might have the upper hand this time, but what we did was practically offending him!” 

Upon hearing that, Severin said disapprovingly, “You shouldn’t think that way. There have been. many occasions when we think that it’s best to just give way, but is it really the best option? None of you have ever offended him in the past, and yet he continues to oppress you like nobody’s business. If you don’t resist or fight back, he’ll treat you like pushovers and keep oppressing you even more!”
