Although they were already out the door of Jaime’s house, Sergio and Umberto’s parents could still vaguely hear the roar of Jaime’s grandfather.
Sergio smiled, shook his head and sighed:
-The elderly must learn to take care of their bodies. Jaime’s grandfather loses his temper so easily that he won’t live long.
-Dad, since we have such favorable evidence, why don’t we go straight to the police station? -Olivia asked in confusion.
It was a shame to let Jaime run away like that. Since her son was almost killed, she thought Jaime should make it up to him.
Sergio looked at her and, since he was in a good mood, he explained patiently:
-We could break the relationship with the Seco family, sending him to prison directly. But if Jaime’s grandfather bribes the judges, Jaime will be imprisoned for only a few years. That will aggravate the conflicts between us with them, and they will definitely take revenge.
Jaime’s family was no less than Sergio’s. Therefore, the cost of totally defeating Jaime and his grandfather would be extremely difficult. There was still a balance between the powers of the two families. If they showed no mercy to Jaime, his grandfather would break this balance.
-We gave them a chance. Look, we’ve benefited a lot from that, haven’t we? Two years is enough. When Jaime returns to S-City, the situation won’t be under his control. Besides, we have the evidence of his crime. If Umberto has an accident in the future, we will show this evidence so that everyone will suspect Jaime. This will be our deadly weapon against Jaime’s family.
After hearing Sergio’s words, Olivia suddenly realized. Old men always had more experience. She only thought about how to get revenge, but it turned out that Sergio had more strategies.
Seeing that she understood his purpose, the old man suddenly changed the subject:
-I see that you have totally changed your attitude towards Albina.
As soon as he heard these words, Olivia’s expression became complicated:
-I think she’s not mean to Umberto. Whatever I do, I no longer want to interfere in my son’s feelings.
She still did not forget that her previous intervention caused so much controversy. It was Yolanda who taught him the results of confusing friends and enemies. After that, he did not dare to intervene in Umberto’s marriage.
Besides, Albina had already fully occupied Umberto’s heart. If she continued to insist on her idea, Umberto would hate her much more than before. Thinking that Umberto treated her very well last night, and even called her “mom”, she felt very happy and smiled.
Sergio and Daniel looked at each other and shook their heads with a smile.
When Sergio got into the car, Daniel took Olivia’s hand:
-I’m delighted that you’re okay with Umberto and Albina’s relations.
Olivia looked at him and said with a blushing face:
-Don’t talk about the past, you know that Yolanda cheated on me. I never imagined that this kind girl was so cunning and cruel.
In fact, she wasn’t sure what she said either, because she had realized that Yolanda was pretending, but because of her family’s fame and life support, she always pretended to be invisible.
She admitted she was wrong, but it was not easy for her to ask Albina for an apology.
Daniel knew her character, and when he saw her smile like that, he patted her hand:
-I see, forget the past. I hope you will enjoy the love of our children more in the future. Make shopping list, play cards, go to the salon… you can do a lot of things. If you don’t have enough money, you can use my card.
Olivia was delighted by her husband’s words. Her well-groomed face was full of smiles:
-Great! A necklace looked great on me….
-Buy it! -before she could finish her words, Daniel said immediately.
After Daniel got married, Olivia never cared about money, but this time she liked her man’s attitude. Hearing this, she happily took Daniel’s hand and they went home.
Sergio didn’t lie. They didn’t sleep last night, so they had to go back to rest. When they got up, they would appreciate how he asked for Jaime’s apology.
At the hospital…
Albina fell asleep, slowly opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling with a bored expression. After a long time, her consciousness gradually returned and she suddenly got out of bed.
When she gathered herself, she realized that she was sleeping in Umberto’s hospital bed. He turned to look at his own hospital bed and found no one in it.
Cold sweat broke out in an instant, she unconsciously stepped on the floor with her bare feet and suddenly a voice came out of the door that stopped her movement.
-Albina, put on your shoes and get out of bed, the floor is cold.
Although the weather was getting warmer now, it was still cold in the morning. In this season it was easy to get sick.
Umberto had a fever last night and his limbs were still a little sore. He didn’t want Albina to suffer the same.
-Did your fever go away? Why did I fall asleep? Did you go out? You’re still sick, so you can’t lie down?
Albina put on her shoes, ran to him and took his hand. She always remembered that Umberto had a foot injury, so she didn’t dare to run too fast, half supported him and threw him on the bed.
As she was about to bend down to help him take off his shoes, Umberto quickly stopped her:
-Don’t do such a thing. I’ll do it myself.
He was afraid that Albina was worried, so he lay down on the bed very obediently and explained with a smile:
-After taking the medicine, my wound got better and it doesn’t hurt when I walk. I no longer have a fever and my body is getting better. Don’t worry.
Seeing that he didn’t take it seriously, Albina couldn’t help but pull her face:
-Why don’t you take your body seriously? You don’t know how hot your body was last night. If I found out later, your brain would not work.
She smiled at him:
-If you become a fool, I’ll marry someone else. I’ll let you sit in the front row at my wedding and watch me marry someone else.
-Don’t even think about it!
Umberto could not imagine the scene of Albina marrying another man.
Umberto was thinking of the romantic and beautiful wedding scene, where Albina would put on a pure white wedding dress and walk towards a groom whose face was not visible, while he was like a fool, sitting in the front row with a silly smile.
Even if he becomes a fool, he is still a rich and handsome fool who loves his wife, and will never allow Albina to marry someone else.
Seeing Umberto’s face shadowed, Albina touched his face:
-Don’t tell me you’re thinking about that!
Umberto raised his head and looked at Albina’s pretty eyes, he became serious:
-I won’t allow you to marry someone else. We’ll get engaged when the Yolanda affair is over.
Although Miguel did not appear at Albina’s side long ago, there was still a possibility that he pursued Albina.
There were many men around Yolanda, and most of them were excellent. Albina was beautiful, intelligent and had a good personality.
The more Umberto thought about it, the more necessary it seemed to him to announce the relationship between the two of them so that all those who wanted to pursue Albina carefully would go away.
Albina looked at him, smiled suddenly and said softly:
-Okay, we’ll get engaged when my parents’ affairs are settled.
All Umberto’s thoughts were interrupted. He looked at her in surprise:
-Do you agree?
