Jaime was touched.
-Grandfather, thank you. I’ll do my best. I’ll…
-It’s okay.
Seeing his excited expression, Alfredo was relieved.
-After returning to the company, don’t be stubborn, let alone act recklessly, you have to control your temper, okay?
As long as he could return to the company, Jaime accepted any conditions.
He also knew that his previous violent behavior must have reached Alfredo’s ears, and he was afraid of leaving another bad impression in front of him, so he nodded quickly and his face became docile again.
Alfredo was even more relieved to see this.
-Good boy, I’ll let my assistant organize several changes in the company during this period so you can prepare in advance.
When Jaime heard this, he was even happier, it seemed that Alfredo still spoiled him, and his admiration for him grew a little more.
But soon, a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
-Grandfather, how could Umberto agree to let me return to the company? Is there some conspiracy?
He and Umberto were enemies, he caused him a lot of trouble and even threatened him. According to Umberto’s personality, he would definitely take this opportunity to retaliate against him, so how could I give him a chance?
Before Alfredo could speak, the assistant behind him gave a snort.
-Of course he has to give him a chance, if he hadn’t secretly attacked you, your feet wouldn’t be….
-Shut up! -Alfredo roared, and the assistant shut up in embarrassment and took a step back.
But Jaime had already heard him. He looked at his foot and then looked at Alfredo in disbelief.
-Grandfather, are you telling the truth? The reason my foot is like that is because of Umberto?
Seeing that he already knew, Alfredo couldn’t hide it anymore, he blamed the assistant for being too talkative and nodded his head.
After receiving this news and confirming the incident, Jaime’s eyes filled with anger and his face twisted a little.
-It turned out that Umberto did it.
Fuck, this man really was his enemy. He always thought it was Pedro who did it, so he didn’t expect it to be Umberto.
“I should kill Umberto right now!”
Seeing Jaime’s expression, Alfredo called out to him.
-Jaime, this matter is over. Don’t fight Umberto in the future and run the company well. Umberto is evil, you’d better not provoke him.
Umberto’s thoughts were too deep and he had suffered some losses because of him, not to mention Jaime. There was no way they could fight Umberto.
Jaime didn’t seem willing and looked at Alfredo.
-Grandfather, my foot is broken, and now it has been determined that Umberto did it. Shouldn’t we take revenge? Our family is no worse than the Santangel Family. Why are you afraid of him?
-Shut up!
Alfredo looked at Jaime angrily.
-Don’t say this in the future. If you are obedient in the future, you will be the heir of the Dry Group. If you dare to do anything, I won’t be able to protect you.
What he said was entirely for Jaime’s sake. Umberto had proof of Jaime’s murder. The Seco Family seemed to be on the same level as the Santangel Family, but in fact, they couldn’t compare to them.
Especially after Umberto inherited the Santangel Group, their strength was even greater than that of the Seco Group.
Jaime was also much worse than Umberto, and it was impossible for him to fight against him. If he insisted on doing so, it would only end in a disastrous defeat.
Alfredo did not oppose his fighting spirit and encouraged his ambition, but that did not mean he could lose his head.
Jaime pursed his lips tightly, and finally lowered his head.
-All right.
Seeing that he agreed, Alfredo withdrew his serious expression and patted him on the shoulder.
-I did this for your own good, don’t blame me. Go pack your things and come home with me.
Jaime nodded and walked into the room.
When he turned his back, his eyes suddenly became indifferent and he smiled.
Alfredo Seco was obviously afraid of Umberto. Jaime was really confused, his grandfather not only had no ambitions, he was even afraid of a young man.
Umberto only trusted Grupo Santangel, Grupo Seco was no worse than Grupo Santangel, so why should they bow down to him?
Alfredo even told him that he couldn’t fight Umberto.
Jaime’s eyes became even more indifferent when he thought about this. In Alfredo’s heart, was he just useless?
In an instant, Jaime’s gratitude and trust towards Alfredo diminished and his resentment grew.
Alfredo looked at his back, especially the position of his feet.
They hired the best doctor, and the injury to Jaime’s foot had recovered greatly. As long as he walked slowly, he couldn’t see anything wrong, but if he walked a little faster, it was obvious that there was something wrong with his feet.
-I have to find a way to get Jaime to walk normally,” Alfredo muttered, feeling a little more distressed for Jaime.
The assistant did not dare to intervene. He was so impatient that he told the matter without Alfredo’s permission. But hearing Alfredo say this, he quickly said:
-I know a way to allow Mr. Seco to walk normally.
-What?
Alfredo turned his head to look at him, his expression was a little confused, because of what happened a moment ago, he was still a little dissatisfied with him.
-I know someone who can make shoes. With a little work on the height of the sole, he should be able to greatly improve Mr. Dry’s walking posture. As long as the design is good, the appearance of the shoes won’t look any different,” the assistant said hastily.
Alfredo frowned.
The assistant was very nervous, this was his chance to make up for his crime.
Alfredo took a long time to speak.
-I leave this matter to you, make sure you get it right.
The assistant nodded quickly and immediately contacted his acquaintance.
Jaime took some of his personal belongings, while he let the servants pack the rest and send them back to the Seco Family. And then he dutifully followed Alfredo out of the villa.
He was quiet all the way.
Seeing his distraction, Alfredo almost did his best to talk to him. But he wasn’t good with words either. Usually young people adored him, this was the first time he tried his best to find a topic.
-Jaime, you’re not young anymore. I was thinking of assigning a marriage for you.
Jaime raised his head in surprise after hearing this.
Thinking of Yolanda’s face, he pursed his lips.
-Do you already have a selection? -Jaime asked in a hoarse voice.
Alfredo nodded.
-The lady of the Pomar family has returned from abroad, do you want to meet her?
Jaime was silent for a moment before nodding.
-That’s fine.
Seeing that he was obedient, Alfredo breathed a sigh of relief. Jaime had some problems in his heart because of his feet, and he couldn’t go back to the way he used to be. But as long as he was obedient, things would be much easier.
-That girl is beautiful and cheerful, I’m sure you’ll like her.
Jaime nodded again, he didn’t care who his marriage partner was now, as long as he could help him, no matter how she looked or what her character was.
Alfredo continued.
-As for Yolanda, it’s best that you don’t contact her. I have hidden your affairs with her very well and no one will know. If you continue to associate with her, I’m afraid no other girl will want to marry you.
When he thought about that day, the Santangel Family people told them that Yolanda and Jaime were still in contact, and he was nervous.
Fortunately, no one took it seriously, otherwise Jaime’s marriage would be greatly affected.
Jaime continued to nod after hearing this, but his eyes were somber and he did not take Alfredo’s words seriously.
When Yolanda came out, he would definitely keep her and hide her existence.
As for the marriage partner, he just needed to faithfully do his duty.
