The voice sounded like a cold, venomous snake crawling up his neck.
In an instant Umberto woke up, and when he turned his head, Albina’s enlarged face appeared in front of him.
Her eyes were a little misty:
-Albina?
Umberto’s voice was soft, tinged with doubt, but still sounded very affectionate.
Yolanda’s heart was indignant, but seeing her look from Umberto, she could only hold back the anger and sweetly replied:
-Honey, it’s me!
Umberto loved Albina so much that his body’s reaction became even stronger. He wanted to touch her face, but because Yolanda came so close, traces of makeup appeared.
She immediately pressed hard on Yolanda’s shoulder, pushing her away.
She thought she had succeeded and secretly rejoiced, but he pushed her away so violently that her back hit the corner of the table.
Glasses and bottles on the table fell to the floor. Yolanda felt a dull pain in her back, which made her face contort.
Since he pushed her away and the cloying scent of her body was far away, Umberto’s condition was much better. It was then that he realized what was happening and, striding over, he grabbed her by the neck and lifted her upwards, before Yolanda could react.
When she saw his red eyes, Yolanda was too scared to speak. Seeing him cover her mouth and nose, and her heart began to despair a little.
“Umberto must know.”
-Umberto, what do you want to do?
Her voice was still trembling as she said this.
Suddenly, Umberto strangled her even more. And she gasped instantly, with a suffocated red face, which gradually turned blue.
She tried to break free, but her strength was too limited.
Yolanda felt like her lungs were about to explode and her head was filling with blood. She looked into Umberto’s somber eyes and her heart was already beginning to despair.
Was she going to die here?
When she felt she was going to die in the next second, Umberto let go and she fell to the floor like a mud puddle.
Her makeup was soaked with cold sweat. She breathed in great gulps of fresh air, her heart filled with the terror and joy of escaping death.
Umberto had not killed her.
After a while, Yolanda finally relaxed and looked at Umberto in panic.
She had forgotten that no one in all of Sogen City dared to mess with him. Due to the kindness of saving her life, Umberto had never shown his cruelty in front of her in the past few years. With the passage of time, she had forgotten that Umberto was never a kind-hearted and gentle-tempered person.
She suddenly thought that she had asked some people to look for trouble with Albina before. Later, these were forced by Umberto to walk back and forth several times over the glass dregs.
Their families knew that they had messed with Umberto and immediately sent them out of Sogen City.
And one of them, having been abandoned by his family and left untreated, was already lame.
Thinking about this, he kept trembling. She looked at him with a pale face:
-Umberto, no… you can’t kill me!
Umberto’s eyes were full of sarcasm when he heard this:
-I’ve never hurt a woman, but you, how dare you set me up?
-I… -Yolanda did not know how to defend herself and said in a stammering voice, “You have misunderstood, I have done nothing.
As her face was already dirty, she looked very ridiculous when she tried to defend herself.
-Didn’t you put on makeup to look like Albina to seduce me? You didn’t even think to confess to me the cause of her mother’s death, did you?
His voice was tinged with fury, and Yolanda shrank back on the floor, not daring to speak.
Looking at his face, she feared that Umberto really did something to her out of anger, so she hastened to shout:
-Umberto, you can’t do anything to me, I have saved your life!
-Yolanda, if it weren’t for this, do you think you’d still be talking to me now?
Yolanda held her head, not daring to look at him.
Umberto rang the service bell, and soon the staff rushed over.
Seeing the mess in the box, he froze for a moment. All the staff had been trained and were of a high psychological quality. Not daring to inquire anything, he asked respectfully:
-Mr. Santangel, what are your orders?
Umberto whispered a few words in his ear, and the man’s expression shone with a hint of surprise.
-Go and fix it.
The staff looked at Yolanda on the floor, with a touch of sympathy, and quickly left.
Yolanda only vaguely heard a few words and was very frightened.
“Umberto, what the hell do you want!”
The staff soon approached, carrying a small cup of something watery in their hands.
He looked at Umberto, who nodded towards him, and walked straight towards her.
Yolanda kept backing away, waving her hand desperately:
-Go away! Don’t come any closer.
Until her back was against the wall and she could not retreat, the man poured the liquid directly into her mouth.
Yolanda choked back her tears, coughing desperately, her eyes red as she looked at Umberto:
-Umberto, what have you given me?
-Don’t you know?
When Yolanda realized what it was, she scratched her throat, wanting to spit it out.
-Miss Carballal, it’s useless. Once you drink it, it will take effect,” the staff reminded her.
In fact, Yolanda already sensed that something was wrong.
The perfume she was wearing had an aphrodisiac effect, but what she drank before was more potent.
Soon Yolanda was slightly unconscious, her face reddened, writhing on the floor.
Umberto did not want to see her ugly state and went out.
The staff followed him with a touch of flattery:
-Mr. Santangel, should we arrange for some people to fuck him?
-Shut up! -Umberto gave him a cold look- -Lock the door tight and don’t let anyone in.
I just wanted to teach Yolanda a lesson.
