Chapter 158: Resignation

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

When Yolanda heard this, she was so excited that she almost took Jaime’s hand in front of the grandfather.
But she still remained rational, and did nothing inappropriate.
-Thank you, sir. With your help, my family will definitely survive.
After Yolanda and Jaime left Grandpa’s study, they felt completely relieved, Yolanda unconsciously wanted to hold Jaime’s arm, but he avoided it.
Jaime coughed slightly and whispered:
-There are many intelligence officers in the house, don’t act rashly.
Yolanda hurried to adopt the correct posture, showing a reserved and elegant appearance, but at the same time, she was also tense. The old man was too serious, if she stayed in this house for a long time, she would become very depressed.
It was no wonder Jaime’s father eloped with the person he liked, he didn’t come back even he had such a rich family property.
Speaking of Jaime’s parents, Yolanda thought of the pictures on grandfather’s desk. After leaving the main house, she said to Jaime:
-I have no impression of your parents.
Jaime smiled:
-When my parents left home, you were not yet born.
In the past, he did not mention his parents easily, but now he would be in a good mood, so he said a little to Yolanda.
Yolanda nodded and sighed:
-I just saw the pictures on Grandpa’s desk. He’s been thinking about them all the time.
-My grandfather missed my parents a lot, but he was stubborn and never said so, so he missed the last chance to see my parents.
-You don’t look like your parents.
Just as Yolanda said this, Jaime suddenly froze and frowned:
-Don’t mention my parents anymore, the matter is settled, you are going to announce this good news to your father.
Yolanda just thought that her parents were a sore spot in her heart, and didn’t think much of it. After leaving, she called her father.
Julio was completely relieved to hear the news. As long as the Seco Family helped him, the Carballal Family would be fine for the time being.
On the phone, Julio praised Yolanda highly, which made her very proud. After hanging up, he looked at Jaime and smiled shyly:
-My family is fine now, shall we go to the hotel?
She didn’t finish speaking, but blinked with a charming look on her face.
Jaime was a little excited and drew her to himself fiercely, his voice was low and deep:
-It’s okay, I helped you a lot, you should make it up to me now.
His eyes were like those of a hungry wolf, which made Yolanda blush.
The Seco Family did as he said and quietly spread the news that night. The original partners of the Carballal Family, who wanted to terminate the contract because of the Santangel Family, now dared not act rashly.
Julio was finally relieved.
Umberto also received the news, his eyes revealed ferocity, and then he smiled indifferently:
Ruben looked tense, looked at Umberto and asked:
-What should we do now, are we going to fight against the Seco Family? Unexpectedly, Jaime associated himself with the Carballal Family.
Umberto looked at the document and said quietly:
-Stop first.
Ruben was stunned:
-Now that the Carballal Group is about to collapse, as long as we continue, the Carballal Group will soon be destroyed. At this moment…
Umberto smiled and looked at him:
-The Seco Family can make such a decision, that old man must have agreed. Jaime could not make the decision.
Ruben nodded:
-I’m going to find out the deal between the Carballal Family and the Seco Family.
Without waiting for Umberto’s consent, Ruben hurried to leave. After a long time, he returned with a complicated look.
-Mr. Santangel, the Seco Family has sent people to take many properties of the Carballal Family. The Carballal Family gave up so many benefits, it’s really….
-If he hadn’t taken the initiative to benefit the Seco Family, with the old man’s cautious personality, he wouldn’t have messed with this bother -Umberto put the things in his hand and leaned back in the chair, not panicking at all. The Seco Family has now publicly stated that they will help the Carballal Family. If we do anything to the Carballal Family again, Mr. Seco will definitely intervene.
When he took over Grupo Santangel, El abuelo had already retired behind the scenes and handed the company over to Jaime. He had not yet formally confronted this Mr. Seco, he only heard from his grandfather that he was a person who acted fast and very protective of his own people.
If the Carballal Family really was under his command, it would not be so easy to deal with the Carballal Family.
Ruben also realized the difficulty, he sighed with disappointment in his eyes:
-I’m still not willing to stop like this.
-I told you to stop now, but I didn’t say you would never take action against the Carballal Family.
Ruben was a little surprised:
-What do you want to do?
-Supervise the Carballal Family first and get ready. When they let their guard down and think they can be reborn, we will destroy them directly,” Umberto said with an indifferent smile.
-The Seco Family will not fight against us to help the Carballal Group that is about to go bankrupt.
Ruben was so excited when he heard this, he nodded quickly.
-I’ll let everyone prepare in secret now, so those guys can’t act when the time comes.
Umberto smiled and did not speak, but his eyes were deeper.
***
The Santangel Family stopped and Julio sighed in relief. Although he was very reluctant to give up those properties, the Seco Family actually did what he said and really helped the Carballal Family.
He settled things in company, and saw that the night outside the window had grown dark, the body he had been enduring was also tired.
After being in the company for so long, and he was a little old, of course he couldn’t stand it.
He simply walked out of the company, as he was a bit sleepy and there was no one on the road, he relaxed a bit and heard a scream.
Julio slammed on the brakes and all his drowsiness disappeared.
His forehead was sweating, he was pale and scared.
Did he hit someone?
Thinking about this, Julio was very nervous. The Santangel Group finally stopped now. At this critical moment, if something really happened to him, they would definitely publish it and use it to create public opinion.
So the Carballal Group was about to fall back into crisis.
Julio sat in the car and hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to get out of the car to check the situation.
As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a person lying in front of the car. He could not see clearly, but there was really no movement. He was even more frightened.
Julio got out of the car shaking, crouched down in front of that person and cooperated with the headlights to see her face clearly.
It was a beautiful woman and you could feel the soft temperament radiating from the inside out.
He carefully examined the woman’s breathing and was relieved that she was still breathing.
Looking around, there was no one, and this section of the road did not belong to the monitoring range.
Julio frowned and decided to hug the woman and put her in the back seat.
He got into the car, looked at the woman, gritted his teeth, stepped on the gas and drove the car to the house he had secretly bought earlier.
Just as he opened the car door and was about to put the woman down, he saw her fingers twitch and her eyes slowly opened.
The two looked at each other and Julio instantly tensed. Before he could speak, the woman said:
-Who are you and where am I?
She stood up holding her forehead, frowned and pressed her temples with her fingers with a painful expression.
-Who am I? Why can’t I remember anything?
Julio was a little surprised when he heard what she said, took a step forward to support her shoulder and said softly:
-I picked you up on the way home and you passed out. Because the place where you passed out is relatively close to my house, that’s why I thought I’d bring you back.
The woman stared at him with a confused expression. Although she was not young, she was more tender than a beautiful young woman.
Julio liked this kind of gentle woman best. He liked this woman very much in terms of appearance and personality.
-How are you? Do you want to go to the hospital? -She lowered her voice involuntarily, revealing an ambiguous concern.
-No, I don’t want to go to the hospital,” the woman trembled after hearing this and looked at Julio pitifully. I don’t want to go to the hospital, I don’t know why, when I think about it, I get scared.
-Okay, we’re not going to the hospital, can’t you really remember anything? Can’t you remember where you live?
The woman nodded, frowned and lowered her head.
-I can only vaguely remember that someone called me Romina, but I can’t remember anything else.
