    Chapter 277


    “Alright, it’s gettingte. We should go to sleep!” Diane lowered her head shyly and added as an


    afterthought, “I’m beginning to like you more and more now, and you have no idea how scared I was


    when I saw those assassins attacking you today. I was afraid something would happen to you, and that


    I’d lose you!”


    Severin felt even happier to hear that and could not help but take the opportunity to say to Diane, “How


    about I stay by your side tonight, then?”


    Diane immediately rolled her eyes at Severin. “What’s on your mind, huh? Do you want to get it on with


    me after knowing that I like you?”


    “No, it’s not like that at all! Why would I have such lewd ideas? I’m not a pervert!” Severin said


    embarrassingly.


    “Hmph, all men are liars. How am I to know if you’re a pervert or not?” Diane snorted coldly and


    withdrew her hand.

    Seeing as there was no chance for him that night, Severin stood up in disappointment and walked


    toward the door. “It looks like I’ll have to sleep alone in an empty room again tonight. What a tragedy


    that I can’t hold my beautiful wife in my arm to sleep!”


    Diane felt smug when she saw Severin’s disappointed expression. “You need to be a good husband,


    okay? Maybe someday I’ll be so happy that I’ll let you spend the night with me!”


    Severin turned around and said, “What else do I have to do, honey? I’ve helped the Shanahans secure


    two spots in the project, and we have a house and a car too! I think it’s pretty good already!”


    Diane then deliberately said, “You promised me you’ll give me a wedding that will shock the whole city


    and make everyone in Brookbourn envious. I don’t remember you doing that yet.”


    Severin’s heart skipped a beat. Even though Diane did not seem to care much when he mentioned that


    to her in the past, it seemed that she did care about it after all, and with good reason too, since she had


    been the target of much criticism after he got her pregnant without marrying her.


    He thought for a while, and then said to her, “Don’t worry, honey. I’ll make ite true for sure, but


    there might be a couple of things I have to deal with in the next half month, so I might have to dy the


    wedding a littleter. But once that’s out of the way, I promise I’ll make it up to you with a grand


    wedding! It will be the epitome of extravagant, and it’ll be a huge sensation not only throughout


    Brookbourn, but the entire south county too!”


    When Diane heard that, she said, “Yeah, yeah, keep bragging! You haven’t sobered up from all that


    wine you had tonight, I assume? The entire south county has more than a hundred cities, and your


    promise is a little over the top if you ask me!”


    “Haha, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. When the timees, even the entire country’s women will


    envy you!” Severinughed out loud. He was confident of that because the country’s war gods were all


    his apprentices. Moreover, they had only learned a small whisker of Severin’s true volume of


    knowledge.


    “You really are drunk!” Diane shook her head. “I was thinking about letting you sleep here for the night,


    but seeing you drunk made me change my mind. I wouldn’t want you getting all touchy with me halfway


    in the middle of my sleep!”


    “What!” When Severin heard that, he immediately said, “Is that true, honey? Did you really have that


    n? Look, I’m not drunk! I swear!”


    “You say that, but would you brag like nobody’s business if you weren’t?” Diane said, rolling her eyes.


    “Okay. I shouldn’t have bragged like that. Will you believe that I’m not drunk if I stop bragging? Well, in


    that case, I’ll keep a low profile!” Severin replied bitterly.


    Diane sped her hands in front of her chest and said, “Fine, I’ll let you sleep here tonight. But just one


    night! And you’re not allowed to do anything sneaky, okay? If youy your hands on me and bully me, I


    swear I won’t let you in my room again!”


    “Yes, of course! I promise not to do anything sneaky. I’m happy enough that I got the chance to sleep


    with you for one night!” Severin was ted because he knew that it was the first of many more nights in


    the future. Furthermore, Diane’s words were a sign that she was slowly beginning to ept him.
