Life After Prison

Chapter 497
“But I can’t possibly accept that, Zenoah. After all, it’s a very precious item passed down within your family!” Though Severin
knew deep down that it was a genuine treasure worth. taking, he remained courteous and humble despite wanting to take it
immediately.
After all, it would make him look greedy if he were to take a family heirloom without the slightest hesitation.
Felicia, who was watching from one side, had a glimmer in her eyes as she took out it from Zenoah. She then rolled her eyes at
Severin and said, “He’s offering it to you out of sincerity, so you can’t just refuse it like that! Otherwise, they won’t be able to live
with themselves if reject it!”
Zenoah was unaware of the enigma contained within the jade pendant, so he nodded in agreement. “Yes, Mister Severin. I’d feel
bad for the rest of my life if you won’t accept it!” “I understand. Thank you very much for your generosity then!” Severin could
only smile awkwardly and say yes.
you
“Thank you, Mister Severin!” Zenoah and the others looked gratefully at Severin and went to one side.
After they left, Felicia held up the jade pendant and began looking at it. After a while, she could not help but remark, “This should
be an antique. He said it was passed down from his ancestors, so I think it’s very valuable!”
Severin immediately stretched out his hand and smiled awkwardly. “He gave it to me, so shouldn’t you return it to me?”
Felicia, being the gold-digging greedy woman that she was, would never give something so exquisite to Severin after getting her
hands on it. She put it into her pocket directly and said, I thought you didn’t want it? You don’t seem interested in it, so what’s the
harm in letting met have it? I am your mother-in-law, after all, and it shouldn’t be an issue for you to give me at jade pendant that
you don’t want.”
Severin was completely speechless. Had he known that Felicia would take it, he would have done away with all the courtesy and
just accept it outright earlier. Now that Felicia had stuffed the pendant into her pocket, he could not possibly reach in there and
take it out!

“Sure.” Severin could only muster a deflated smile. He agreed to it for the time being, knowing that the opportunity for him to take
it back from her would come sooner or later. Having sensed that there must be some kind of inheritance stored within, Severin
surmised. that it could be a martial arts technique or something similar. Such treasures could never be bought, even if one were
to spend several million.
“Ah, glad to see you could make it!” Felicia immediately went over to greet some guests.
Diane pondered about a few things and soon went to greet the other guests, though it was not before long that she went up to
Keagan.
