Severo didn’t say who it was, but Allyce related it to what he had said earlier, his face changed abruptly and he spoke, “You mean Desiderio…. He’s Delfina’s brother, Adam Natividad!”
Severo said nothing, only lowering his eyes to look at Alonzo.
Allyce followed their gaze and found Alonzo looking at them curiously, blinking as if he could understand what they were saying.
Could Alonzo have remembered Delfina’s name?
Allyce knelt down and asked quietly: “Who is Delfina?
Alonzo blinked and spoke slowly: “Auntie.
As there were many people coming in and out of the hospital, Alonzo was pulled out by Severo, and when he finished speaking, he lay down in Severo’s arms, looking as well as he could.
Allyce smiled and pinched his face, “Clever, so you know who Adam is?
Confusion flashed in Alonzo’s eyes, he clearly didn’t know who Adam was.
He was only one year old and it was only natural that he did not even remember the name of his supposed “daddy”, except for Delfina, with whom he was always with.
Although Allyce didn’t say anything bad about Delfina, she felt a little bad when she realised that Alonzo knew that she and Severo were talking about Delfina.
Severo seemed to read what was going through Allyce’s mind and said: “Let’s talk about it again.
With that said, Severo pulled Alonzo in front of her and got into the car, with Allyce following close behind.
Just as she was about to get into the car, she felt someone staring at her and unconsciously looked behind her, but all she could see was the hospital building and the crowd of people rushing around her.
It was probably an illusion.
…
Children are in the habit of taking naps.
When we got home and ate, Alonzo’s eyes were half-closed and sleepy and his little head kept tilting. Allyce was having fun, holding his head, letting go and holding it again …
Allyce watched in amusement, holding her head, releasing it and putting it back on.
Then Allyce smiled and lifted him up and turned to Severo and said, “I’ll put him to bed first”.
Probably because Alonzo was already sleepy, Allyce put him to bed and he soon fell asleep, and slept very soundly.
Allyce tucked him in again and adjusted the temperature of the air conditioning before turning to leave.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Severo standing in the doorway.
I don’t even know when it came, it didn’t even make a sound.
Allyce approached cautiously and pushed Severo out, closing the door before saying: “Why did you come up here without making a sound?
Severo curved his lips slightly and led her into the study.
He could not wait for the results of the DNA test.
Only the results of the identification would have to wait a little longer.
Once in the studio, Severo began to talk to him about Desiderio.
He had basically done all the research and guessed what he hadn’t had time to find out.
And Allyce had long since waited and sounded a little anxious: “Tell me quickly, Desiderius is Adam, isn’t he?”
Adam, Delfina’s brother who had not been located for several years.
“No definitive confirmation has been made, but it is certain that Desiderio is Adam”.
Severo gave him an affirmative answer before saying, “Delfina has had a heart condition since she was a child, she grew up paying to maintain her body with all sorts of drugs and hordes of doctors looking after her, only a few years ago the right heart was found, but it has come and gone, and in her condition I imagine it would have cost a lot of money, she has no parents and all these years what is the quickest way to make money for a kid without a good family and a normal environment?”
He finished and stared at Allyce, indicating that he could continue to speculate.
Allyce’s eyes narrowed slightly and a thought crossed her face.
Not only did Adan’s situation mean that he did not have a good family environment, but he even had to shoulder the huge medical bills that would be involved in his sister’s treatment, which was hard to say the least.
Is the only way a person can think of when he or she is driven to the brink of despair by layers of poverty and hardship … to break the law?
Allyce spoke tentatively: “He committed the crime and made the black money to treat Delfina?
Severo didn’t say whether she was right or wrong, there was a hint of encouragement in her tone, “Well keep guessing, Adam and Delfina have been living abroad, medical expenses for daily needs are not a small amount of money, and Desiderio doesn’t have the gravitas of someone in a normal mafia organisation.”
He made it clear enough for Allyce to almost blurt out: “You mean Desiderio is actually a “Grizzi” as well?
Severo finally straightened up and said seriously: “Not only that, but I suspect that Desiderio is an important figure in Grizzi.
Allyce caught Severo’s stern, handsome look, and thought again of the rumours about ‘Grizzi’, and a shiver ran through her body for a moment.
“And what exactly is its purpose?”
What was Desiderio’s purpose in approaching her? What did he want from her, or what did he want through her?
Severo scoffed: “That? You’d have to ask Desiderio himself, of course”.
Allyce had to digest what she had heard.
Desiderio was an important figure in the Grizzi family, which meant he was probably a leader or something, and he was also Delfina’s brother.
“How could Desiderio take Alonzo?” Allyce felt a fog of confusion that she could not resolve.
Severo hadn’t wanted to tell Allyce so soon, but she had already asked, and she didn’t seem to have any reason to hide it any longer.
Although the results of the DNA test were still pending, I was sure.
He spoke as calmly as he could: “What if I said that Alonzo could be your son?
Allyce froze: “What?”.
She was unconsciously about to deny that her belly was flat when she jumped out of the hospital window, how could Alonzo be her son.
How could an embryo less than a month old survive outside the mother’s body? Although I did not follow the medical industry very closely, I knew that no such technology existed in the world at the moment.
Severo had anticipated her reaction and took her hand in his, saying earnestly: “Desiderio is from ‘Grizzi’, and ‘Grizzi’ has the ‘k7’ medical research equipment.
