Albina looked at Umberto’s gaze and hurriedly pulled his arm and said:
-Don’t interfere, he is still a child.
Umberto looked at her and arranged the hair in front of his forehead behind his ear.
-What do you take me for? Violence is not the only way to deal with wayward children. Don’t worry, I have my own way.
Albina was somewhat curious about his method.
Umberto smiled enigmatically, went out to make a phone call and returned with an extra package in his hand.
Albina looked at him and was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud and gave a thumbs up towards Umberto. This was actually a good move, it was simply a magical attack with great power.
Adrian had been hiding in room since he pushed Albina and hadn’t come out until dinner time, when Bianca took him out of the room.
He still felt a little guilty, and only glanced at Albina for a second before looking away.
Diana was originally a little embarrassed to see Umberto, but when she saw this expression on Adrian’s face, she was very pleased.
It seemed that Adrian had become so disgusted with Albina that he didn’t even want to look at her.
When she went downstairs, the only empty seat left was the one next to her, thanks to Umberto’s deliberate arrangement.
Adrian could only reluctantly take a seat next to him.
Next to Umberto was Albina, so he felt very uncomfortable remembering what Albina had said this afternoon.
After Umberto gave Albina plate, he made a good brother-in-law appearance and looked at Adrian.
-Adrian, did the teacher assign you homework over the weekend? -he said in a gentle voice.
This soft tone made Hector, who knew Umberto well, startle unconsciously.
He couldn’t even keep his chopsticks still. He looked at Umberto, saw his smiling face and became suspicious.
“What is Umberto up to, why is he being so nice all of a sudden?”
He didn’t think Umberto was ingratiating himself to Adrian.
But Adrian didn’t know Umberto’s character and was relieved to see that he seemed nice.
-Yes, but I finished them at school.
He said it with his chin held high, waiting for his praise.
Umberto’s eyes deepened.
-Wow, you really like to study.
Bianca laughed at his words.
-Umberto, don’t listen to his nonsense. He’s the naughtiest, although he’s a bit smart, he’s not serious in his studies and loves to play.
-I know,” Umberto looked at the shy Adrian and smiled as he stroked his head.
-It’s my first time here and I don’t know what you like, so this is for you.
She took out a delicate box and Adrian was thrilled.
The gift Albina gave him was a limited edition Transformer. His parents told him that Umberto was great and they were both boys, so the gift had to be even better, even the box was very big.
He was full of anticipation.
Albina looked at him very excited, so he should be really happy, but it was just a pity that….
The next second, he stiffened and stared at the contents for quite a while before asking Umberto.
-Are you sure the box contains the right things? Is it really the gift you want to give me?
He said it with a glimmer of hope.
Umberto smiled and nodded.
-Yes, do you like it?
Adrian was speechless and Umberto stroked the back of his neck.
-You’re so happy you’re too excited to talk.
Hector moved curiously closer to take a look and swallowed saliva when he saw the familiar cover.
Umberto’s move was pretty ruthless, he even gave Adrian a whole box of exercise books. Almost all the exercise books from elementary school were in here.
Adrian didn’t like to study, and every time he did an exercise book it killed him.
Antonio and Bianca also saw the contents of the box and smiled.
Seeing that Adrian was still frozen, Bianca reminded him.
Adrian, quickly thank your brother-in-law.
Adrian opened his mouth, but seeing Umberto’s smiling, handsome face, he suddenly felt incredibly sinister.
He couldn’t thank him.
Umberto saw that he said nothing and his smile grew even bigger.
-Don’t you want what I gave you? You think it’s not enough? Then…
-No, I like it very much -Adrian hurried to speak and stiffly flashed him a delighted smile.
Albina ate the prawns in silence, and seeing Adrian being forced to perform, she was pleased.
Umberto still had another method and said:
-I used to be very good at school, so I will check your answers for you after you solve them every day. Bianca said you have a WhatsApp, let’s add us and you can send me a picture when you finish.
Bianca was happy to hear that.
Hector had no patience to teach it, and the tutor couldn’t control it, so this move by Umberto was a surprise for her.
-Yes, Umberto is very cultured and intelligent, so you can ask him if you don’t know how to do it.
At first, Adrian wanted to throw the notebook under the bed, but Umberto came up with this trick and Bianca also agreed.
He was aggrieved and had an unhappy expression.
It was a good meal for everyone except Adrian.
After dinner, Antonio and Bianca went back to their rooms, Adrian ran straight to Umberto and glared at him.
-Did you do that on purpose during dinner?
He didn’t even greet Umberto and his eyes seemed to burn with two small flames.
Umberto looked at Adrian. One of them was furious and full of questions, but the other was careless and lazy.
-I can’t believe you found out.
His words made Adrian even angrier.
-You’re as bad as your wife. One specializes in bullying Diana and the other specializes in bullying me. You are bad people and I hate you.
When Umberto heard this, his eyes suddenly turned grim, making Adrian cringe a little.
Hector and his parents were usually scary when they got angry, but they were all family, and Adrian didn’t find them particularly scary.
But when he saw Umberto, he was perplexed. That man looked like he could hit a child.
Adrian had fear in his heart, but to maintain his manly image, he couldn’t run away. However, his calves were still trembling.
