Yolanda knew that now was not the time for infighting, so she followed Julio obediently.
With a slap mark on her face, she was red and swollen. When she returned to the company, she attracted the attention of many employees. However, the employees did not dare to greet them when they saw that they were depressed.
The huge building was filled with keyboard sound and there was no voice for a moment.
Sitting at the desk, Lila stared at Yolanda’s gloomy face. Seeing the slap print on her face, she smiled.
What she most wanted to see now was that Yolanda was suffering, as for Albina, she had forgotten her.
***
Albina had a very nice lunch at Santangel’s house. Umberto wanted to take Albina back. When he was picking up the car, he saw Olivia greeting him.
Umberto didn’t know why, so he walked over and looked at Olivia:
-Mom, what’s wrong?
-I have something to tell you,” Olivia looked at Albina, who was talking to Sergio.
Olivia also had a smile on her face:
-Albina is getting nicer and nicer.
When Umberto heard this, his face was full of pride:
-You’re right, I realize this now.
Olivia looked at her son speechless.
-Does Albina still live in the rented house? -Olivia asked.
Umberto nodded:
-Yes, but her parents’ house has been returned and has been reorganized in the last few days. I’m going to help her move everything today and return the rented house.
Olivia looked at him sternly:
-Why are you so useless?
Her grandfather said he was useless, so did her mother. Umberto, the most capable in the circle, kept silent.
Olivia looked at him with disgust:
-Your father was much better than you when he was young. I didn’t like your father at that time and I married him in a short time. Albina likes you a lot, you still don’t marry her for that long.
She still didn’t finish the words, Umberto raised his eyebrows and looked at her, the meaning was obvious.
Only then Olivia remembered that Albina had married Umberto a long time ago. It was she who was in the middle and had helped Yolanda.
She was embarrassed:
-Well, it was my fault, I was wrong. You are excellent. I have bad eyesight and I can’t distinguish the bad.
Only then Umberto relaxed.
After Olivia apologized, he continued:
-Albina said that when the Carballal Group matters are resolved, you will be engaged.
-Yes -Speaking of this, Umberto showed a smile and was very cheerful.
Olivia was stunned for a while, it took her a long time to remember what she was going to say.
-I’ve heard about the Espina Family, Albina has no family now. We have to help her. I’ll prepare everything for you and then I’ll show you the list. You can see what is missing.
Now she just wanted to make it up to Albina, she treated her better than Yolanda. She almost took it as her own daughter.
As for this matter, Umberto would absolutely give his full attention and nodded solemnly:
-All right, we’ll discuss it. What I didn’t give her before, I’ll make up for.
After the conversation, Umberto returned to Albina and said:
-Come on, I’ll take you back.
Albina said goodbye to them.
Because of what happened yesterday, Sergio specially instructed Umberto to drive a car with bulletproof glass.
In fact, they didn’t have to be so careful. At least now Jaime did not dare to attack them. Besides, they were in the center of the city and couldn’t find any opportunity to attack them.
But seeing Sergio’s worried look, Umberto did.
When Albina got into the car, there was a smile on her face and Umberto smiled too:
-Are you happy now?
Albina was stunned for a moment, then nodded:
-I feel that everyone loves me.
Even Olivia treated her well, she was so kind that Albina was a little stunned and had an unreal feeling.
Umberto’s gaze softened, Albina’s smile made him feel sorry for her.
She had suffered so much pain before, only a little tenderness and kindness could make her so happy.
They both wanted to talk on the way, but they didn’t get the chance because of the calls one after the other.
Umberto first got the call from Camilo and Santiago, then Albina got the call from Ariana.
They asked what happened yesterday and were concerned about her condition.
Albina listened to Santiago’s words, and Ariana asked him again. She showed a helpless expression:
-Are you not together now? Why are you asking twice?
Ariana’s soft voice came out of the microphone:
-He is Umberto’s friend, I am your friend, how can it be the same?
-Yes, as you say. I’m fine, don’t worry.
She looked at the address of the car, Albina said to Ariana:
-By the way, I have returned the rented house. Umberto is helping me move today, my parents’ house is already prepared. If you come to me, go directly to my house, make no mistake.
When Albina spoke about her parents, her voice stalled for a while and then continued in a normal tone.
Because of the phone, Ariana didn’t notice. Only Umberto’s fingers tightened their grip on the steering wheel.
Albina was still not relieved by the fact that she was not the biological daughter of Espina’s parents.
Albina hung up the phone, Umberto was about to comfort her, she received another call from Romina.
Umberto found a place to stop the car and answered the call under Albina’s doubtful eyes.
A soft female voice came from the phone, Albina raised her eyebrows, but did not speak.
It was very quiet in the car, Umberto asked coldly:
-What is it?
-Sir, I found out some things four years ago from Julio in the last few days, but I did not know completely. Delay the attack against the Carballal Group, wait until I hear the news.
Umberto answered yes and hung up the phone after indicating a few words to him.
Just as he was about to turn his head to explain the situation to Albina, he saw that she was looking at him with complicated eyes:
-Who is she, do you have another woman now?
Umberto laughed after hearing this:
-What are you thinking about? What other woman. She’s my spy for Yolanda’s father.
Albina was relieved:
-I see, the voice sounds good, do men like women like that?
-Don’t talk nonsense, you are the only woman in my life and I will be the same in the future -she told him all about Romina, then said- -There is something strange about your father’s traffic accident four years ago. Romina has discovered something wrong, I guess the truth will be known in a few days.
Albina’s expression became serious.
Seeing her nervous expression, Umberto touched her hair and wanted her to relax:
-Don’t worry, I will take revenge for you. No matter what the truth is like, don’t get too excited.
He felt that something extraordinary must have happened in the traffic accident four years ago, but now there was no conclusive evidence. Therefore, he had no idea what happened.
