Chapter 227: Giving Each Other a Chance

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

Jaime walked out of the Santangel family. The whole process was completely different from what he imagined. His dignity was trampled upon without impiety here, and he was already a bit stunned.
The man holding the camera looked at him staggering and confused, he was extremely worried about his boss.
As soon as he got into the car, Jaime was finally back to normal. He looked at the camera in his hands with red eyes and said in a hoarse voice:
-Tell me, can you edit the video before sending it?
He looked so embarrassed a moment ago, after sending it, he would face the mockery of people watching it.
He did not care about the attitudes of those netizens on the Internet, and the Seco Family could not let themselves be influenced by a few netizens. His grandfather also said that the Internet had a very short memory and after a period of time, there would be no comments on the Internet.
As long as the Seco Group’s official website would post more messages later to sink this video, nothing would have to worry about.
But this video should have left too much influence in the circle. He and Umberto did not treat each other well, this was something well known. As soon as this video came out, everyone knew that he was inferior to Umberto. If he wanted to change everyone’s impression, unless he made a big move, it would be difficult to make Umberto bow his head to him.
Too difficult.
The man carrying the camera noticed his somber look, quietly put the camera away and whispered:
-Mr. Seco ordered to send the video honestly. If we do anything, I’m afraid Mr. Santangel will continue to look for trouble and make further demands.
Jaime’s eyes darkened and he leaned back in his chair dejectedly. Now he really felt that being released and leaving Sogen City for two years was a good thing for his future. At least he wouldn’t be able to hear the taunts and ironies all around him.

In the Santangel family, after Jaime left, Albina was a little embarrassed to be at Umberto’s side. She didn’t know how to get along with her boyfriend’s parents.
She was not familiar with his father and had some unpleasantness with his mother before. Although her mother’s attitude had improved, she still felt uncomfortable being together with her.
-Well, Umberto, I’m leaving,” she quietly tugged Umberto’s sleeve and whispered.
Umberto took advantage of the situation to hold her hand in his palm and smiled in her ear:
-The daughter-in-law will see her in-laws sooner or later. Don’t worry, you know my grandfather likes you very much. My dad is very kind, and as for my mother… now you know her guilt.
As soon as the words fell out, her mother spoke. Although she was a little uncomfortable, she looked at Albina and said:
-Well, Albina, come with me. I have something to tell you.
Albina froze when she heard this and looked at Umberto.
Umberto nodded with a smile, and Albina followed behind Umberto’s mother.
The mother should have been very beautiful when she was young. Although she was old now, she was well maintained and her figure was perfect. Her dress looked like a noble lady to him.
Stomping on high heels, she walked gracefully in front of Albina.
Albina looked at her back and usually proposed several design options based on her body and temperament. She did not speak, thinking about the designs and followed her mechanically.
Although Umberto’s mother walked gracefully and calmly to the front, she was actually quite nervous.
When she was with Albina before, they were always miscommunicating. Her husband spoiled her too much and so she had a bad temper. Ni thought he was a kind and generous person, but in front of Albina, she had gone too far.
Ever since she had gotten to know Yolanda well, Olivia had been reflecting on what she had done to Albina over the past few years. The more she thought about it, the guiltier she would feel.
The two of them were thinking about messy things in their minds, and didn’t say a word, except for the sound of walking in the hallway.
-Here -when she reached her room, Umberto’s mother stopped.
Albina didn’t stop and hit him back directly.
-I’m sorry, I, I didn’t mean to,” she quickly apologized.
When the mother heard this, her heart was very complicated.
Wearing high heels, she was taller than Albina, who was wearing flats. Albina bumped into his back, her nose turned red and her eyes filled with tears.
She should be in a lot of pain, but her first reaction was to ask him if he had hurt her?
After removing the hostile filter, Umberto’s mother realized that the girl in front of her was actually quite good, pretty, educated, intelligent and talented.
A car accident killed her parents and she lost her home. She eventually met Umberto and led a very short good life. It was she who ruined her happy marriage.
Olivia felt a little guilty, touched Albina’s hair and apologized softly:
-You don’t need to apologize to me. It is I who should apologize to you.
Albina was stunned. Umberto’s mother was touching her hair, wasn’t she? With the same gesture Umberto used to touch her hair. They really were mother and son, with the same behaviors.
Realizing this, Albina quickly came back to her senses and looked at the woman in front of her.
Olivia continued:
-I misunderstood you and thought you were a greedy and vain child and wanted to rise to the upper class. So I did a lot of bad things and caused you a lot of harm. I was wrong, I am very sorry, Albina.
Albina was stunned and did not speak for a long time.
Although her relationship with Santangel’s mother was not good, Albina had also been her daughter-in-law for three years. She knew she was moody because her husband spoiled her so much and she had no in-laws. Along with Santangel’s power, she had been proud and haughty for so many years.
Getting her to apologize was simply harder than killing her.
But now she apologized, it was like a miracle.
Seeing her stunned and unbelieving, Umberto’s mother said:
-I don’t ask you to really forgive me, but I promise you that I will never interfere in your marriage with Umberto, nor will I force you to do anything you don’t want to do. I will try to be a good mother-in-law. Please don’t doubt Umberto’s feelings for you because of me. He really loves you.
When Olivia said this, she was a little anxious and her eyes were red:
-Umberto has had good luck since he was a child and gotten what he wants. That’s why we gave him to his grandfather to educate him. He has always been indifferent since childhood. He is indifferent, he doesn’t know how to love others. You are the first person he fell in love with. I have never seen him like a person so much.
He even almost severed the relationship with his family for Albina.
Albina listened to his anxious words, looked at his red eyes and the image of her mother flashed in her mind.
She smiled at Umberto’s mother:
-I know what you mean, don’t worry. I promised to get engaged to Umberto after avenging my parents.
As soon as these words came out, Olivia fell silent, and then a surprise appeared on her face:
-Really?
-Of course, I just told her this morning. Although you and I have had many unpleasant experiences before, we may also have conflicts in the future. But you have already admitted your mistake to me and I can see your sincerity. I believe in Umberto, and I am willing to believe in his mother once. Let’s give each other a chance and get along.
Olivia was touched. She was really a good girl.
She had no daughter, only an indifferent and stubborn son. Seeing Albina’s beautiful and elegant appearance, she took her by the hand and entered her room.
-Come on, Albina, I’ll show you something nice.
