Life After Prison

Chapter 226

Evan’s cell phone vibrated. He raised it up to look at the screen and said excitedly, “Look, Whitney! My cousin just transferred the money! He was telling the truth!”

Whitney took the phone, counted the money carefully, and realized that there was two hundred thousand dollars in the account. Her emotions immediately got the better of her and she could not hold back her tears from falling.

Elsewhere, at the Shanahans, Stanley went to his grandmother and complained angrily, ” Grandma, Diane asked for a day off again today. She’s only been working for a few days but she’s already asking for a day off! The excuse she gave was something along the lines of treating some guests to a meal and having a short housewarming. She even used her authority willy-nilly to let her father retire early and enjoy the company’s retirement funds.”

Stanley paused and said indignantly again, “Worst of all, she’s already fired several employees even though she’s only been on the job for a couple of days!”

Unexpectedly, Catherine smiled at him and said, “Diane told me about that last issue in advance. They’re all your close associates, and they’re incompetent fools who do nothing for the company. They also falsified the accounts so they could be reimbursed for all the wine and dine that they were enjoying on company time!”

Stanley’s lips twitched a few times when he heard that. He had been thinking about complaining to his grandmother about Diane but did not expect Diane to have complained to her about it before him. He immediately said with an aggrieved expression, “Really? Why don’t I know about it? They used to do a good job under me, and I think they’re just showing their dissatisfaction with Diane after she became the new general manager!”

He then immediately changed the subject and said, “There are only three days left before the official launch of the Liberty City project. Why hasn’t Severin given us any news yet? He’s not lying to us, is he? What are we going to do if he’s been pulling our leg all along?”

The old lady smiled icily in response. “Well, Diane and Severin are inseparable, and it’s clear that she wants to be with him. Furthermore, Severin has a good relationship with Draco Hall and Henry, so even if he can’t secure us the quota, I can’t go back on my word after I’ve accepted Severin as the Shanahans’ son-in-law! He’s now considered a part of the Shanahans!

Having made that point clear, she paused again and said, “But if Severin fails to help us get a quota, then I’ll use Diane’s abuse of authority as an excuse to remove her from his position. The company will still be managed by you in the end!”

“Wise decision, Grandma. Thanks for always treating me so well!” Stanley was overjoyed and immediately said flatteringly. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

The old lady smiled. “Let’s go. We’re going to pay them a visit and ask them about the situation while we’re at it. After all, it’s only three days away!”

“Right, let’s go!” Stanley was incredibly excited to wrestle back his position from Diane. When he thought of how she would be removed before she could even get the chance to warm the seat, he was eager to see how petulant her reaction would be when the time came.

millions. I’ve had a good relationship with him since we were young, and our family has been very kind to theirs too. He knows our situation right now, so he said he’ll give me two hundred. thousand so I can be with you!”

“Two h-h-h-hundred thousand?” Whitney’s eyes widened and she wondered if she had heard. it wrongly. It was simply unthinkable that someone could just give away two hundred thousand dollars! ‘Just how rich is his cousin?’

“Yes. I’m not lying to you. There’s still a lot left over even after we use the money for the

dowry and the house. When the time comes, we’ll use what’s left over to renovate our house

and buy a car. It’s enough for our wedding too. We can be together now, Whitney!” Evan hugged her tightly while assuring her.

Soon, Stanley drove off with his grandmother and his father.

“Hold up. Why are there so many beautiful women here?” Stanley’s eyes lit up as soon as he arrived at the gate. He did not expect that there would be six beautiful women chatting away happily there.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Catherine, “Grandma, do you think Severin found. these women too…anyway, I think he’s going overboard now that he has money!”

When Lillie saw some strangers at the door, she went over and asked them, “Who are you?”

“We’re the Shanahans. She’s Shanahan’s esteemed matriarch!” Stanley cocked his head and said arrogantly, “And we should be the ones asking who you are!”

“We’re the bodyguards Mister Severin hired. Please wait a moment. I’ll notify them that you’re here!” Lillie immediately answered.
