Life After Prison

Chapter 220

Halfway through the meal, Vincent had the cheek to go over to raise a toast to Severin.

Since Vincent was his elder and Severin felt that it would be impolite of him to refuse, he had no choice but to smile and accept the toast. Unexpectedly, Vincent remained beside Severin rather than going back to his own seat, and he even bowed down with a smile. “Look at you. You’re a rich guy now! A giant among men!

Severin frowned as he felt that Vincent was trying to imply something. He smiled and shrugged it off. “We’re not that rich, Uncle Vincent. There are tons of people who are richer than us.”

Amazingly, Vincent had no qualms coming over and borrowing money as soon as he found out that Severin’s family. had gotten rich.

Severin smiled awkwardly. “I’m sure your family has saved a lot of money too, right? It should be enough for the down payment.”

lend the money to Vincent, because if he did, then they would also try to find an excuse to ask for some money from him. If Severin could afford a meal that cost a-hundred-and-fifty-thousand dollars, then there should be no issue with asking to borrow three hundred thousand dollars. After all, it was probably just a drop in the sea for him!
