-Jaime, what do you want to do?
Umberto’s voice was stern and he glared at Jaime.
When Jaime reacted, he jerked his arm fiercely, looked first at Olivia, then at Umberto.
-Umberto, it was your mother who slapped me indiscriminately, can’t I defend myself? Don’t think that just because the Santangel Group is powerful, you can be so reckless! -he said in a hoarse voice.
Umberto looked at him indifferently.
-You should know very well why my mother hit you, are you sure you want me to say it now?
As he said, he looked at Angelina who was next to him.
Jaime looked nervously at Angelina, who was looking at him with a puzzled expression.
He was very nervous, Angelina didn’t know anything about the things he had done before. Although he didn’t like Angelina very much, she was currently the best choice for the Seco Family and could give him a great deal of help.
Besides, they were about to get engaged and he couldn’t afford to have an accident.
In the end, Jaime did nothing but throw a hateful glare at the three of them, looked for an excuse and left with Angelina.
Although Angelina was innocent, she was not stupid and could vaguely detect something, she frowned as soon as she lowered her head.
As she was led away by Jaime, she looked at Albina, and waved goodbye to her with flushed cheeks.
Albina found her amused and returned the greeting.
-Albina, Jaime’s fiance seems to like you very much.
Olivia also noticed Angelina’s movements, looked at Albina and joked.
-Your charm is quite strong, even the enemy’s fiance was attracted to you.
-Aunt! -Albina was a little embarrassed- You just got almost beaten by Jaime, and you still feel like joking.
Olivia didn’t care.
-Jaime wouldn’t dare hit me. I slapped him and now I feel more comfortable.
Umberto looked at Olivia and said in a soft voice.
-Mom, you’re too impulsive.
When Umberto didn’t speak, Olivia was quite proud to talk about that slap, but now Olivia instantly shut up and felt a little aggrieved.
-I really hate Jaime, before he wanted to kill you and Albina, and now he even fights with us over something as important as an engagement party. I wanted to slap him as soon as I saw him.
So he didn’t even think about it and just slapped him.
Albina stroked her forehead, estimating that Olivia’s temper would never change.
Umberto sighed, disapproval showing in his eyes.
-Jaime is in a very bad way and has been squirming more since he couldn’t recover from his foot, so no one can predict what crazy things he will do next. I’m afraid he’ll get back at you for that slap.
When she heard that, Olivia suddenly remembered that grim, mischievous look on Jaime’s face before he left, and was suddenly startled.
-I almost forgot, Jaime can’t be seen as a normal person now. He’s someone evil, vicious and perverted.
As she spoke, Olivia stroked her chest. Losing all interest in shopping, she changed out of the clothes she was wearing and let Umberto take them home.
Looking at Olivia, who was walking quickly in front of her, Albina took Umberto’s hand with some concern.
-Umberto, is it true what you just said? Will Jaime really take revenge on her for that slap?
Jaime was in the dark. They couldn’t defend themselves against him all the time.
Seeing her worried look, Umberto squeezed her hand and comforted her.
-Don’t worry, during this time Jaime has to prepare his engagement ceremony and he must not have the energy to do this.
-And after the engagement? -asked Albina.
Umberto smiled.
-His engagement party will not be successful. Even if the Pomar family still recognizes the engagement, he will be dissatisfied, and Jaime will be busy repairing the relationship between them, so he won’t have time to take revenge.
But for security, he still needed to send someone to protect Olivia and Albina.
When Sergio went out, there were always people around to protect him, and Daniel had little presence in the Santangel Family, so it was unlikely that Jaime would do anything against him.
After the previous incident, when Jaime wanted to do something, he would definitely be fully prepared to make sure he succeeded.
Albina listened as she thought, she was much calmer and smiled as she looked at Olivia.
They had just arrived at the house, and it was well past lunchtime.
At that moment, Sergio was upstairs napping, and Daniel was alone in the living room, reading the newspaper and waiting for them to come back.
When he saw Olivia, he was about to greet her, but she suddenly pounced on him and hugged him, complaining.
-I’m so scared, we had just run into Jaime at the mall, and he wanted to hit me. If it wasn’t for Umberto’s quick reaction, he would have slapped me in public and I wouldn’t have any dignity afterwards.
Olivia covered her face and leaned back in Daniel’s arms.
Umberto and Albina came in, heard this and both fell silent.
Albina sighed in amazement as she watched Olivia lay all the blame on Jaime in an extremely matter-of-fact way.
If she hadn’t seen with her own eyes the scene where Olivia took the initiative to slap Jaime, she would have believed her.
Daniel slapped her gently on the back, and said angrily:
-How dare you strike your elders? I must find an opportunity to speak to Alfredo and see how he has rude his grandson.
When Olivia heard this, she raised her head, and looked at him with reddened eyes.
-Forget it. After all, he didn’t succeed, and he was probably irritated by what we said to him. What happened yesterday made me so angry that I really couldn’t control myself.
Daniel was worried.
-You’ve suffered a lot. Do you have anything you want lately? I’ll buy it for you, so don’t be sad.
It was quite natural for Olivia to receive his comfort and his gift.
Only when she went upstairs happy, Daniel looked at Umberto and Albina and asked them:
-What exactly happened?
-Don’t you believe what he told you? -Albina could not help but exclaim in surprise.
Realizing what she had said, she hurriedly covered her mouth and gave Daniel an embarrassed look.
Daniel shook his head and smiled slightly.
-I’ve lived with her for a long time, I definitely understand her character. Even if Jaime was a bastard, he wouldn’t have hit her for no reason in public. She was the one who caused trouble first, wasn’t she?
Albina looked at Daniel with great admiration.
She always thought Daniel had very little presence in the Santangel Family, with a powerful father and an excellent son.
She hadn’t expected him to be such an intelligent person.
Besides, knowing that Olivia said silly things, he would still act with her. Such a relationship was truly enviable.
Umberto told what happened at the mall.
Daniel frowned after listening to him.
-Jaime has changed a lot. He is now more evil and very dangerous.
However, fortunately they were counting on Jaime’s weakness. As soon as he felt displeased by Alfredo, or the true heir of the Seco Family was found, it would be time to take revenge on Jaime.
Umberto had never taken Jaime seriously, and while he was a bit dangerous, it had not risen to such a serious level.
While there was no way to anticipate Jaime’s next move, there would always be a solution.
