Allyce blinked and then played dumb: “I didn’t say anything.
Severo’s reaction showed that he knew nothing at all, Allyce drew a silent cross.
I hoped he hadn’t really heard what she was saying.
But God forbid.
Severo heard what she said very clearly.
“Enzo broke off the engagement?” Severo slowly approached her, his pleasant voice unusually low and cold.
Allyce felt as if her ears were going to freeze.
Allyce took a small step back and leaned against the edge of the long dining table, her back ached a little, but she didn’t mind that now.
He pursed his lips and wisely decided not to argue, but he didn’t say anything either.
Severo scoffed: “You are well informed”.
This tone of voice …
Allyce lowered her head, reached up to tug at his sleeve, lifted her eyelids to look at him pityingly, “Lucila told me, I don’t pay attention to her …”
Lucila, God bless you.
Severo looked at the slender fingers tugging at his sleeve, his cold forehead tinged with a tinge of malice.
He did not remove his hand from Allyce’s, but merely raised an eyebrow: “Yes?
“Yes!” As if to prove her innocence, Allyce quickly responded.
“Hmm.” Severo gave a perfunctory reply and took back the word: “Let’s eat first.”
“Sure, I’m a little hungry myself.” Allyce loosened her grip on his sleeve, figuring he wouldn’t pursue this matter, and smiled with a curved eyebrow, making Severus perk up a little.
Allyce saw that Severo didn’t move, very attentive to go to the other side to help him pull out the chair: “You go first, you eat first!”
Severo approached her and looked at her meaningfully: “I eat first?”
“Yes …” Allyce inexplicably felt that Severo’s words were a little extraordinary.
And women’s intuition has always been right.
For the next moment, Allyce was led to the table by Severo, and then it took him a moment to untie his tie: “Then I’ll be polite”.
“…”
Allyce was stunned and watched as he untied his tie and removed his suit jacket before reaching over to pick up his own clothes before she reached out to stop him, “Wait!”
Allyce was shocked by the speed with which Severo undressed her, giving her absolutely no time or opportunity to resist, and by the time she reacted, there were no clothes left on her body.
…
“That … will get you pregnant.” Allyce’s brain is a little woozy.
Severo’s next sentence, however, woke his whole person straight up.
“If you are pregnant, you will give birth”. Severo’s tone was very light, as if he was just saying: “The rice is ready to be eaten.
“What do you mean?” Allyce’s eyes widened as she looked at Severo.
Severo acted calmly and picked her up with a slight frown and walked towards the bedroom.
As she walked, she said, “Are you stupid? Can’t you even understand human language? I said if you are pregnant, give birth, I have a lot of money to raise the children, depending on how many you can have.
Severo rarely says a long paragraph in one breath, and from his patient explanation, it is easy to hear the expectations hidden in his voice.
Allyce froze, forgetting to answer for a moment, and only when Severo placed her on the edge of the bed did she speak.
His voice was a little hesitant: “But I think we are now …”.
Her intuition told her that it was not the right time to have a baby, and she deliberated on what to say next.
Severo pulled the quilt and wrapped it around her, enveloping her whole body and making her sit there.
He squatted down in front of the bed and took her hands, his dark eyes full of seriousness, and continued what she had not finished before: “I think we’re in the right place, both physically and in terms of energy, all the circumstances are perfect for having a baby.”
Allyce unconsciously wanted to pull her hand away, but seeing Severo’s serious look, she didn’t after all, just lowered her head and whispered: “But I don’t think it’s the right thing to do”.
Severo, unusually, did not get angry, but asked patiently: “What do you think is inappropriate?
Allyce spoke abruptly: “Maybe I’m not in the right physical condition to have a baby? We have to check, physical health first, right, and besides, you’re so busy right now, so ….”
“Allyce.
Severo suddenly called her name, interrupting what she was going to say next, “Just say you don’t want a child yet, no need to make excuses”.
“I …” Allyce felt nervous about Severo, “I’m not, I just don’t think it’s really right for us to have a baby right now….. …”
Severo has too many secrets, she chose to stay with him because she likes him, no matter what happens in the future, it’s between her and Severo.
If she were to get pregnant and have a baby now, then it would be a three-person affair.
A new life does not need to be burdened with the things of the previous generation.
A new life that must be born in a perfectly suitable situation.
“You have two hours to think about it.” Severo stood up, his eyes dark, which prevented one from seeing the emotions under his eyes.
Allyce, seeing him like this, became a little uneasy and hastened to call him by name: “Severo!”
