The expression on Severo’s face did not change in the slightest: “I can make someone wreck this shop now and then pay for it, only in the future, within the pharmaceutical industry of Yunzhou City, no one will dare to hire you”.
Stern, with a long history of struggling in the market outside the intimidating aura, this kind of talk is arrogant and unreasonable, out of his mouth, but he seems to take it for granted.
The doctor was in a temperature-adapted pharmacy, but hearing Severo’s words sent a shiver down her spine, making her believe, inexplicably, that if he could say it, he would be able to do it.
So the doctor cautiously and honestly confessed: “She bought the birth control pills”.
Before the end of the sentence could fall, the man who stood in front of her, threatening her a moment ago, rushed out like a gust of wind.
It took Severo less than three minutes from the time he entered the pharmacy to the time he returned to his car.
Then he drove and soon saw Allyce, who was walking slowly along the roadside.
She was holding her handbag in one hand, her head low, her long hair falling over her eyes, and she seemed distracted.
I don’t know if I’m walking for real or not.
Severo slowed down and followed her until he saw her enter a restaurant, then stopped at the side of the road.
He was about to get out of the car when his phone rang.
His eyes fell in the direction of the front door of the restaurant and he absent-mindedly picked up the phone.
…
Dinner time was approaching and the restaurant was not yet full.
Allyce found a window seat and sat down, flipping through the menu in her hand, facing the window after ordering.
When he saw the Bentley parked at the curb, Allyce’s pupils shrank and his face changed slightly.
She had the illusion that someone was following her from behind, but she turned around and there was no one there.
The car belonged to Severo. Was he following her?
Soon, Allyce put this selfish thought aside, because she saw Izar coming.
The waiter served the food just then: “Miss, your order”.
Allyce removed her hand from the table to make it easier for the waiter to place the plates, but her gaze seemed to be out of her mind and autonomous, and she kept looking in the direction of the black Bentley.
Izar knocked on the car door and, the next moment, the door opened and the long figure of Severo came into view.
It was night and the light was dim, so Allyce couldn’t see the expression on Severo’s face.
He watched Izar talking and laughing, walking with him towards the restaurant, and only then did Allyce withdraw her eyes miserably.
Looking at the beautiful food in front of her, Allyce completely lost her appetite.
He nonchalantly ate two bites, paid the bill and prepared to leave after going to the toilet.
When she came out of the bathroom, Allyce ran into Izar.
That is what Izar means.
“What a coincidence.” Izar took off the sunglasses he wore on his face and looked at Allyce with sparkling eyes.
His good complexion and Allyce’s miserable white face formed a stark contrast.
Allyce said nothing and turned sideways to leave, but she didn’t want to be grabbed by Izar’s arm: “Why are you in such a hurry to leave, Severo and I are also eating here, don’t you come sit down?
The provocation in the words is evident.
Allyce slowly tightened her fingers, pursed her lips and then turned her head to look at Izar, her eyes tinged with a trace of contempt: “No wonder people on the internet say you have low emotional intelligence, I don’t need to squeeze the hole to annoy him, I just need to go home and wait for him”.
Allyce had already read some reports about Izar on the internet, though there were no scandals or blackmail, but still the keyboard warriors couldn’t help but comment on her.
And indeed, Izar’s emotional intelligence is not low.
“I’m sure his emotional intelligence must be very high, but …”. Izar’s expression remains the same: “It is not always possible to capture men’s hearts”.
After saying that, Izar grimaced and turned to leave.
He also temporarily called Severo to invite him to dinner, but did not expect him to actually accept.
In addition, Allyce was also in the restaurant.
A woman’s intuition told her that there was a problem between Severo and Allyce.
Otherwise, with Severo’s previous coldness towards her, he would surely not have agreed to dine with her; he had always been terribly cold towards her.
And it turned out that his insistence was right, albeit with little success, but it is always good to have an effect.
After watching Izar walk away with her head held high like a victorious queen, Allyce took a deep breath and returned to the sink, washing her hands slowly and carefully.
This hand was scratched by Izar, so dirty.
…
In the box, Severo’s face sipping water coldly, he didn’t look at Itzal.
Even if he ignores it, Itzal’s face is still natural: “Severo, it’s going to be New Year’s Eve, when are you going to see grandfather again?
Hearing her mention grandfather, Severo’s expression finally loosened a little: “It’s still early in the New Year.
The implication was that he did not want to talk to her about grandfather.
Izar’s face changed slightly, he lowered his head and stopped talking.
Severo finished his water and started smoking again, glancing at his watch from time to time.
Izar sensed his distraction and wanted to say something when Severo suddenly stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and got up to leave: “I have something to do, I’ll go first”.
After saying that, without waiting for Izar’s reaction, he went straight out into the street.
…
Severo stepped out of the box, looked at the seat where Allyce had previously sat, and saw that he had long since changed.
He frowned, he knew how fast she ate, so he purposely pointed out the time to leave, he hadn’t expected her to be gone.
It seemed that, with respect to her, I was just miscalculating.
Most seriously, she was wrong to estimate her feelings for him.
…
Allyce left the restaurant, went to the supermarket, didn’t buy anything.
I was just trying to get together.
She felt abandoned and destitute.
The pedestrians were in a hurry because they had somewhere they would eventually go, and she suddenly didn’t know where she was going.
The bay in the clouds, she didn’t want to go back.
No wonder everyone says that men’s hearts are the quickest to turn, when they are good to you, soft and mellow all the time, when they turn their faces upside down ….
Allyce smiled to herself.
He said he had tolerated her, he said a different way of getting along with her.
These words do not sound like angry words at all, entirely like an excuse after a change of heart.
Even if she was angry again, she never said such things. Perhaps her unpleasant personality finally bored her.
Why else would he suddenly be so angry?
Allyce shook her head and stopped thinking about it.
There was a bus stopping in front of her, so she thought about it and got on, not caring which way it went.
When he returned to his small flat after several trips to the bus, it was already eleven o’clock.
He opens the door and steps inside, before he has time to turn on the lights, he can hear the man’s grim voice from the darkness, “Finally you know you have to go back?”
