Chapter 576

Severin shook his head and said, "We both hate Cherridom, right? If Cain's dead, then won't Cherridom's people be sending themselves to their death? I was considering killing Cain before I set off on my journey. so Lucy won't have someone rich to rely on! She'll be so pissed if that happens!"

"Then why don't you look for Lucy and kill her too?" Gracie blurted out without thinking. Severin, however, remained silent.

Gracie frowned. A sudden realization occurred to her and she said lamentably, "I understand why now. You value the relationships you've had with people, be they romantic or platonic, and you must have loved her very deeply during the three years that you were dating her. If you didn't feel that way, you wouldn't've smashed that beer bottle over Easton's head for her sake. I can imagine how difficult it must be to kill someone you once loved so much!"

"That's largely the reason. However, I've been patient with her time and time again, but if she pushes me over the line, I trust I won't show her any mercy when that happens!" Severin thought about that possibility and smiled coldly in the end.

Gracie admired him even more and could not help but say, "Lucy is a fool. She shouldn't have left you back then. Having a man like you by her side is such a blessing! I'm even more jealous of your wife now!" Severin did not expect her to bring that up again and felt a little awkward. After all, what clearer sign could a woman give when she tells a man that she envies his wife? She would not have said something like that if she did not have that idea in mind.

"Ahem, let's have a drink!" Severin cleared his throat and raised a glass to her.

Gracie was in good spirits too, and she drank several cups in quick succession.

Severin looked at how sexy Gracie was and could not help but ask with a smile, "I'm sure many men have the hots for someone like you, Gracie."

Upon hearing that, Gracie laughed and said, "Haha, I'm a tigress in the eyes of many people, and they wouldn't dare to give it a shot at wooing me. Besides, I'm not interested in ordinary men. The only people who are brave enough to try and win my heart are people like Rod, who have ulterior motives and aren't afraid of death!"

Severin nodded, looked earnestly at her, and said, "You're only in your twenties, and it couldn't have been easy for you to manage such a large organization. Besides, if you're not harsh enough sometimes, then. the others probably won't accept that a woman like you is managing Equus Hall. I believe you're a softie at heart, but it's just your position that requires you to act condescending and cold all the time." Gracie's smile stiffened when she heard that and she bit her red lips while saying to Severin, "You're right.. There are times I feel super exhausted, and I haven't gotten any good sleep after Rod took a fancy to me! I'm really grateful for what you did today. I'll drink three glasses as a toast to you, Supreme Leader!" Having said that, she poured herself three glasses of red wine and drank them all in one go.
