Life After Prison

Severin soon drove the car to the gate of Villa 808. It was very huge, and there was a garage that was specially located next to the entrance. He parked the car there, got out, and took the key to open the door.

“I…I never dreamed that we’d ever have the chance to live in such a big villa!” Maurice felt emotional when he looked at the big villa in front of him.

Judith frowned. “I don’t think we can’t afford the management fees for such a big place…”

Severin opened the door with a smile. “Leave those stuff to me. I want you to move in here with peace of mind, so don’t worry so much about everything.”

“Come now, dear! Let’s move our belongings in. I believe Severin must’ve done some great things for Henry to give him this villa!” Maurice smiled and said, “It seems that Severin’s medical ability is exceptionally good and he saved Henry’s life successfully. We might not be able to afford a place like this even if we work ourselves to death, but this might just be worth pocket change to Henry!”

“Right, we should move our stuff in first. It’s getting dark already, so we should get everything sorted out and let everyone choose their rooms. Once that’s done, we’ll get some delicious food outside!” Diane smiled too. It was the first time in five years that she had felt genuinely happy. At long last, she no longer had to live in that small and cramped place with her daughter.

“Will I have my room too, Mom?” Selene looked at Diane innocently and asked curiously.

“Yes, of course! A villa as big as this would have lots and lots of rooms, both upstairs and downstairs!” Diane said with a smile. “I’ll bring you up in a moment so you can choose the room you want!”

“Your mother and I are fine with downstairs. You three should take the rooms upstairs!” Maurice chuckled and added, “You know, I kept worrying over what to do if Severin came out of prison with so much debt. He didn’t have a house or a wife at the time too, but now, he has a wife and a daughter, and he can even call this huge villa home! It’s all still so surreal to me!” !

Judith rolled her eyes. “Look at you, being all beside yourself with joy!”

Maurice laughed. “Haha, shouldn’t I be unhappy? Everything changed overnight! We don’t need to worry that Severin won’t be able to find a wife anymore!”

Judith once again urged Severin. “The Longhorns have shown so much kindness to you, and while you did save the old man’s life, it’s rare for anyone to just give you a place to stay. Always remember to repay them with the same kindness they’ve shown you, understand?”

“Yes, Mom. I understand. You should be enjoying yourself a little more, you know!” Severin smiled and added, “By the way, I’ll make some medicinal liquid for you tomorrow so you can use it to wash your hair. I guarantee it’ll turn black within a week!”

“Look at you bragging. Does something that amazing even exist?” Judith was all smiles, and she seemed to have grown younger by several years since Severin returned. That youthful vigor was something she never had in the past. Severin’s return meant that she no longer had to worry about whether or not he was doing all right in prison. 1

“Haha, don’t worry, I’m an expert when it comes to medical matters, and I promise I’m not bragging. You’ll see for yourself when the time comes!” Severin laughed and changed the topic. By the way, Mom, if I have the time these next few days, I’ll ask someone to clean this place up. Then we can invite

Aunt Marie and the others over for a meal in another two or three days. We’ll treat it as a little housewarming party! And when the time comes, I’ll return the money that we owe them!”

“No, no, no, don’t bother hiring people! Your dad and I can help clean the yard. It’s not like we have anything to do, anyway. With all the free time we have, there’s no need to spend all that money on hiring cleaners!” Judith immediately rejected the idea as she did not want to spend any money to clean the place.

Severin let out a sigh. “Okay, Mom.” As things stood, his parents still had to slowly adapt to living life like rich people. That was no surprise, given that they spent their entire lives working so hard. It would be very unrealistic for him to suddenly ask them to change their way of thinking when it had been ingrained in them for so long.

“Oh dear, the decorations here are so luxurious!” NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

“Yeah, these sofas feel brand new!”

“Wow, there’s even a bar here! And there’s red wine up there too!”
