Chapter 159
Diane exchanged nces with Megan and they were both utterly speechless. With more than two
hundred people there and several among them who could hold their own against a dozen or even
several dozen men, it was appalling that Severin could even make a statement that the
bodyguards were ‘like ants’. He could bluff without batting an eye and without the smallest ounce of
shame.
“Well, we have nothing more to worry about now that Diane will finally continue working at the
company,” Felicia said with a smile. “After you be the general manager, you can’t continue to let
your father remain as an ordinary warehouse manager with a deducted sry, right?”
Diane smiled softly in response and said, “Of course not!”
Felicia’s eyes lit up and she looked eagerly at Diane. “Can he get a promotion or something of the
sort?”
“Absolutely not.” Diane shook her head. “I n to fire him.”
“WHAT?!” Felicia nearly vomited blood. “What do you mean, Diane? You’re going to fire him? How
could you be more ruthless than Stanley? Do you want him topletely lose his job?!”
Her mother’s excited look elicited a chuckle from Diane as she covered her mouth andughed. Don’t
you think you’re getting too riled up, Mom? Even Dad is calmer than you are.” After a pause, Diane
continued, “I was just joking, Mom. I don’t mean to fire Dad. I just want him to retire early. Thepany
allows two or three people to get early retirement every year, right? I’ll make sure Dad gets one! Once
he stops working, the monthly dividends given to retired employees by thepany are about two or
three times more than his usual working sry. That should be better, right?”
“That’s more like it! You scared me to death earlier!” Felicia’s grief turned into joy.
“You finally came through, hub!” Megan was also a little excited. “I still remember how you wouldn’t
protect your family using your power.”
Diane smiled wryly. “I guess I sort of understand now. I used to be afraid of all the things people will say
to me behind my back, and I never promoted Dad even if I had the opportunity to do so.. Now that I
think about it, why should I care about other people’s opinions? When Stanley was the general
manager andundered thepany’s money to spend on himself, Grandma just turned a blind eye to
it. Dad isn’t young anymore, so why can’t I do a little something for him?”

She then looked at William, who was noticeably older than five years ago, and said, “And besides, this
benefit is utterly insignificantpared to some of the things Stanley has done!*
“Haha! Then I’ll look forward to getting some rest atst!” William smiled, knowing that his daughter had
grown a lot in the past few years and became a much stronger person than before. It was heartening to
see that she would no longer be bullied that much anymore.
Elsewhere, Larry frowned after leaving the Shanahans’ estate.
“You alright? You don’t look so happy. Didn’t you get the chance to show a bit of might earlier?”
de could not help but ask curiously when he saw his superior like that.
Larry smiled bitterly, and said, “I’m now worried that our supreme leader will call me for help out of the
blue!”
“Why should you be? He’s our supreme leader! If it weren’t for him, we’d all be dead by today. He
saved our lives, and our lives belong to him! I’d do anything he asks me to, even if it means going
through a mountain of swords and a sea of mes!” de was even more puzzled at Larry’s reply and
did not know why Larry would say something so unlike him.
“Sigh, I’m more than happy to work hard for him, but the tricky thing is when he asks me to help without
letting me reveal his identity. I can use the excuse of seeking his help to treat my mother’s illness, but
what about next time? My mother can’t just be sick all the time, and I can’t use that excuse all the time
either!” Larry said.
