Allyce shook her head, confusion on her face. “I don’t know what happened, I was sitting in front of him talking and suddenly I got confused.
Severo slowly put out the fire, reached out to help Allyce and led her out into the living room.
After sitting her down on the sofa, he looked at her with a serious expression, his voice soft with a hint of reassurance: “Tell me slowly, what is it?
Allyce looked into his dark eyes and nodded, “Yes”.
Severus asked him: “Why did Jonah come to you?
“He said he hadn’t seen me for a while …”
Severo’s face sank and his voice was stern, “He said he would see you and you went? Are you stupid?”
Allyce twisted her fingers and hung her head in silence: “I didn’t think so much of it”.
When Severo saw her like that, his face lightened a little and he got up and poured her a glass of water, “Drink first.
Allyce’s mind was still a little foggy, so she took the water and drank it in one gulp before feeling a little more awake.
When she looked up, she saw Severo sitting across from her with a serious look on his face, and she bit her lip for a moment before saying, “That’s better.
Severo sniffed and frowned slightly: “What is it?
As soon as Allyce returned, a series of words came out fast and furious, so that the only thing Severo had already understood was that she and Jonas had gone for coffee.
“I was a bit foggy-headed before.” Allyce stood up and patted his head.
Severo connected back and forth with what she was saying and asked: “Did Jonas drug you?
“I only had a sip of water.
Allyce frowned slightly, remembering the scene carefully.
“And then I felt I said something, but I don’t remember, and then Lucila appeared out of nowhere, and called me, and I came to, but Jonah, who was sitting in front of me, was gone.”
It follows that there was indeed something wrong with the glass of water.
Although he was wary of Jonas, his energy was a little low after a busy day and he was in a public place like that, so he let his guard down.
Severo’s brow, already furrowed by his words, furrowed a little more.
He said nothing and got up to go to the phone.
Allyce saw him get up and followed him when Severo looked at her: “Stand still, don’t move!
His voice was not loud, but there was a seriousness in it.
Allyce froze and sat back down.
Severo realised that his tone had gone too far and reached out to touch his head, softening his tone slightly: “I’ll call the doctor.
Severo then went to the kitchen and picked up the phone.
Allyce sat where she was and waited for him, watching him walk over with the phone in his hand, and settled with a certainty in her heart.
…
The doctor arrived quickly, a young man with spectacles, a clean face, with a kind but austere forehead.
Probably because he has lived indoors for many years, this doctor’s face is unusually white, so white as to be almost transparent, but still healthy.
As soon as he entered, he went straight to Severo, gave a slight nod and called out with the utmost respect: “Sir”.
Severo came to Allyce’s side, took her by the shoulders and nodded: “Doctor Griego, check her first.
Dr. Griego looked at Allyce and replied: “Yes”.
Then he put aside the first aid kit he had in his hand and took out the antiseptic solution and gave his hands… disinfection! disinfection!
This would have been fine, doctors are more concerned about this than ordinary people.
But this doctor, a Greek, had disinfected his hands three times in a row.
Severo’s impatience was already evident on his face.
Finally, he could not resist saying, “Doctor Griego”.
A hint of apology appeared on Dr. Griego’s face: “I’m sorry, but I cannot examine your wife without careful disinfection.
Severo pursed his lips tightly and could see that, although he was unhappy, he said no more.
Allyce was a little curious about the identity of this Greek doctor.
It seemed that Dr. Griego treated Severo with the same deference with which Xabat treated Severo.
But there was also something different in Severo’s attitude towards Dr. Griego.
Allyce noticed that Severo’s temperament was a little more restrained when it came to Dr. Griego.
Although she was curious, Allyce knew this was not the time to ask.
Dr. Griego was frowning the whole time he was examining Allyce.
That made Allyce a little nervous too.
When the examination was over and Dr. Griego had put away his things and started to sterilise his hands, Severo asked him aloud, “Well?”
Doctor Griego: “The lady’s body, no anomalies”.
Allyce breathed a long sigh of relief and pursed her lips slightly, crying and laughing a little.
If there was nothing wrong, then why was she still frowning so hard, making Allyce think that something was terribly wrong with her body.
Severo also snorted in relief.
Dr. Griego seemed to know Severo well enough to know that he would not come to him for no reason, and when he saw that nothing had been proved, he asked again: “Madam, can you tell us the details?
Allyce then recounted what had happened earlier in the café.
Dr. Griego looked at Allyce with an unusually sharp gaze: “Are you saying, madam, that you were taking a sip of water when you got confused and didn’t know what you were saying? Then, after your friend suddenly appeared and called out to you, you came to your senses”.
Allyce nodded: “That’s right”.
“In this country, some illegal organisations will have this delusional ecstasy, but once it’s in, there is a reaction and you can detect it, and there is nothing abnormal in the wife’s body ….”
Dr. Griego said, pushing up his glasses as if he was still thinking about something.
Allyce noticed that his fingers were long, well boned and beautifully white, and the white shirt at the cuffs was immaculately white.
A word suddenly leapt into his mind: Too clean.
No wonder he had to sterilise his own hands at least three times, no wonder he had frowned at his previous exams, not because there was anything wrong with his body, but because his cleanliness made him reluctant to touch other people …
Severo spoke impatiently: “Get to the point”.
The doctor, a Greek, did not mind that Severo had interrupted his thoughts and said: “Sir, you have been going around your country and abroad for the last two years and you are not very familiar with some of the situation in Europe. According to reliable industry sources, “Grizzi” opened a “K7″ pharmaceutical programme two years ago. ”
Allyce exclaimed: “Grizzi?
Dr. Griego turned his head to look at her and nodded solemnly: “Yes”.
Allyce asked again with uncertainty, “You mean that ‘Grizzi’, the biggest international mafia organisation?”
