Chapter 129


    Chapter 129


    Severin could only frown when he knew what Felicia and William were thinking. In truth, he could never


    spend all the money he had even if he never went to work again for the rest of his life. He did not want


    Diane to work again because she had suffered so much for him in the past years.


    Had he not been afraid of scaring Diane with the knowledge of how much money he owned, he would


    not have shown her just thirty million to prove to her that he had the money. He only showed her that


    amount to reassure her of his ability.


    He remained silent for a few seconds and then asked William, “Were you hoping that Diane would go


    back to work?”


    Upon hearing this, Megan, who had been stifling her anger in her heart, said directly, “Duh! Can you


    afford to take care of my sister if she doesn’t go to work? We want to live a high-ss life, not an


    ordinary life! And on that note, having too much money isn’t a problem, right?”


    Severin nced at Megan and could not be bothered to entertain her stubbornness. Instead, he looked


    at Diane and said, “Do you want to get on the olddy’s good side so you can go back to work?”


    Diane pondered over his question. “Getting on the olddy’s good side is something I’ve never


    considered. The wound from my past is still fresh. But regarding work…I actually do want to go back to


    work, if only to get back at Stanley!”


    “Right!” Megan immediately said. “Thepany has been mismanaged after Stanley became the


    general manager. He reced some of the lower-level people with his guys, who are mostly all


    bootlickers who know how to brag but can’t do a good job at work!”


    Felicia was angry too when Stanley’s name was mentioned. “He’s always been eyeing snatch Diane’s


    position, and he’s worried that Diane would inherit the Shanahans’ property. To make matters worse,


    he used to rub salt in the wound when Diane was chased out of the family and often cooks up some


    random excuses to deduct the monthly allowance given to us by the Shanahans. Diane’s father was


    even transferred to the warehouse, and his sry has been


    reduced a lot too!”


    After William heard that, he smiled wryly and said, “That’s not the end of it. We can turn a blind eye to


    all his snide remarks to us, but the worse thing he did was privately tell some of his friends from the


    same industry to avoid employing Diane after she was kicked out of the family. That was why she could


    not find a decent job and had to resort to delivering food! Surely, you can see how despicable he is!”


    When Severin heard that, he finally understood why Diane wanted to go back to work.


    First of all, she was still undoubtedly part of the Shanahan family. Although the olddy was very angry


    some years ago and kicked her out as a result, Diane might no longer be that angry at her anymore if


    too many years have passed.

    Second, if Diane chose to go back, her main reason was to target Stanley, her cousin. He had used all


    sorts of dirty tricks to give Diane’s family, and Diane especially, a bad life. It was therefore natural that


    Diane would hope to go back and vent her anger


    int Stanley and take revenge on

    him for what he did.


    Diane said insipidly, “I don’t hate Grandma all that much, to be honest. While she was ruthless back in


    the day, I admit that I disgraced the Shanahans when I became pregnant out of wedlock. Ourpany


    is going downhill, and it will meet its demise sooner orter if Stanley is allowed to continue. I don’t


    want to see ourpany ruined like this. It was born from Grandpa’s blood, sweat, and tears!”


    “Yeah. Your grandfather adored you most, but, unfortunately, he passed away due to sickness. It’d be


    great if he was still alive!” Williammented. “The olddy tends to favor boys a bit more. As soon as


    you were kicked out of the Shanahans, she immediately made Stanley the general manager.”


    “I get it now!” Severin nodded. “If you want to go back and work at thepany, then you’ll just need to


    find a way back in. But I’m guessing that the olddy still wouldn’t put you in the general manager


    position even if I can help the Shanahans secure a quota in the Liberty City project.”


    “Being a normal manager is fine too. It’s better than the current situation, at least. As long as Diane has


    a say in the Shanahans, Stanley would never dare to push us around like this!” Felicia said directly.
