Chapter 66: He is in my arms

Book:The Blind Wife Published:2024-6-3

Umberto moved very close to her. Because of the difference in the size of their bodies, it was as if he was embracing her whole body.
After Albina reacted, she suddenly pushed Umberto away. Her pretty face showed no expression and she said:
-Put on your clothes. Let’s start, don’t waste time. I have to go home later. I can’t stay here too late.
She was really ruthless! Umberto frowned and there was a trace of resentment in his eyes, he thought her figure was much better than Michael’s. So why didn’t Albina pay more attention to him? But what made him proud was that Albina hadn’t even looked at Miguel at that moment and she blushed at the sight of his body.
Umberto completely forgot the truth was that at that moment he had covered Albina’s eyes to prevent her from seeing Miguel’s body and they had quickly left together, but that didn’t matter to him, Umberto entered the room with satisfaction to get dressed.
When Albina entered, he was already lying on the bed, closing his eyes to give her space:
-Albina, get in.
Albina frowned:
-Just massaging you. There’s no need to get on the bed.
When Umberto heard this, his face was full of complaints:
-In the past, you used to lie next to me to massage me. I’m used to that way. If you change the position, it might not work.
Seeing Albina’s embarrassed expression, Umberto continued:
-If I can’t sleep, it will delay you longer. Maybe it will be dawn….
-All right! -Albina gritted her teeth. Umberto had always been cold and quiet, why did he talk so much?
Watching her climb into bed, Umberto put his head in her lap with a comfortable expression:
-Albina, let’s begin.
Albina bore it, holding her breath and thinking she had helped him threaten the Carballal family, so she didn’t show her displeasure.
Cold fingers pressed against her warm skin.
Umberto sighed. This feeling, after a year, finally came back to him. He breathed in the woman’s light fragrance and gradually calmed down.
By Albina’s estimation, Umberto could fall asleep in about thirty minutes to an hour. Feeling himself gradually relaxing and his breathing gradually stabilizing, Albina’s movements became smoother.
At this moment, a sudden creaking bell broke the silence of the entire room.
Umberto frowned. All the drowsiness that had just been brewing disappeared.
-Someone seems to be looking for you,” Albina reminded him.
Umberto closed his eyes and said quietly:
-Help me take it.
-No. Take it yourself. Maybe it’s an important call,” Albina refused outright.
Umberto smiled and still didn’t open his eyes:
-If I looked at the phone, I wouldn’t be able to fall asleep.
Albina could only pick up her cell phone and looked at the screen with a complicated expression:
-It’s Yolanda’s call.
Umberto’s expression did not change:
-You answer it. I spoke to her father today about breaking off the engagement. He called me probably because of this matter.
Albina’s expression changed:
-Then I’ll answer. You know that Yolanda and I are incompatible like water and fire. If I answer, I might say some inappropriate words. Okay?
-As you wish.
Umberto didn’t take this seriously. His large hand silently wrapped around her slender waist.
Albina felt his movement and was about to speak, but heard Umberto’s light voice:
-If you don’t answer the phone, she will hang up.
Almost unconsciously, Albina clicked to answer and listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, forgetting Umberto’s small movements.
-Umberto, finally you answer me. Don’t hang up, I have something to tell you.
Yolanda’s faint voice sounded on the other side of the phone, which even Albina felt sympathy for.
She did not speak.
Yolanda’s voice was full of love and sadness:
-Today Dad told me that he agreed to break off the engagement. I wanted to find you as soon as possible, but I was locked in the room for a whole day. Now I was liberated.
She took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly:
-Do you hate me so much? Why do you want to break off the engagement with me so soon after Albina came back, is she so good? We grew up together since we were kids and everyone knows I like you. I’ve followed after you for so many years and I consider first for you. I love you and risk my life to save you from the fire. I don’t ask for much, I don’t even ask you to love me. I just want to stay by your side, even if I do nothing, I will be satisfied just by looking at you. Is that too much?
Such a sincere and loving confession was really touching.
Albina looked at Umberto and saw that he didn’t even open his eyes. Umberto was as ruthless as ever with people he didn’t like.
A Yolanda’s voice continued:
-Umberto, I beg you. Don’t break our engagement of marriage. As long as you let me marry you, even if you like Albina and keep her by your side, I won’t mind.
This sentence was really repulsive to Albina. She breathed heavily and her eyes filled with anger.
“What does it mean to not care about her existence? Yolanda is willing to be humble and wants to share a husband with other women, why does he think I am also so degenerate to the point of becoming the third in other people’s marriage?”
-Yolanda, have you finished? -Albina said coldly.
The pitiful pleas from the other side disappeared and I could only hear Yolanda’s heavy breathing.
Yolanda was surprised when she heard Albina’s voice.
“Why is it Albina’s voice, why did Albina answer the call for Umberto, are they together now?”
Yolanda looked at the night outside the window with a serious expression. It was already very late, what were they doing together?
She was surprised and angry. Especially when she thought she had just made an affectionate confession to Umberto and Albina heard it clearly. Very embarrassed and upset, her face was flushed, but her eyes were full of hatred.
-Albina, it’s very late, what are you doing with Umberto?
She questioned her directly, with a strong anger.
Albina laughed and looked at Umberto, who was lying obediently on her lap and hugging her waist. Then she said in a soft voice:
-Yolanda, you are no longer a child, how can you ask such a foolish question, what else can a man and a woman be together late at night! Umberto is now lying in my arms,” she said with a smile.
Umberto opened his eyes silently and looked at her which her beautiful face mingled with a trace of mischief. He felt that she was more attractive and his heart trembled slightly.
-How is it possible? Albina, you’re lying to me. Have you stolen Umberto’s phone? I don’t think he’s with you now.
Yolanda’s voice was sharp and surprised. She knew Umberto liked Albina, even though she kept scolding Albina for seducing her man, but she knew in her heart that because of what this man had done before, how could Albina forgive him so easily?
-Ah!” Albina took the phone away in disgust and rubbed her ears, “Yolanda, your voice is too high-pitched. Since you don’t believe it, I’ll let you listen to Umberto’s voice.
She brought the phone close to Umberto’s ear:
-Speak, Umberto.
Albina’s voice was incredibly soft and charming. This was something Umberto had never heard before. Although he knew Albina was acting for Yolanda to hear, he couldn’t help but be moved in his heart.
-Albina, that’s enough. Hang up the phone. Come and let me hug you.
Her voice was full of affection, hoarse and low, unbearable to the ears.
Albina’s face flushed and she coughed slightly to hide her embarrassment.
When she heard Umberto’s voice, Yolanda’s mood exploded like a volcano all at once. This was definitely Umberto’s voice. Yes, in fact, it was Umberto’s voice that she herself had never heard before.
Umberto, who was so cold and indifferent in front of her, had never spoken to her in that voice. Yolanda felt bitter and jealous, wishing she could replace Albina right now.
She couldn’t help but scold angrily:
-Albina, you seduce my fiance, why are you such a whore, I want everyone to know how shameless you are!
