Severo’s face also flashed with surprise, then he spoke: “There’s no hurry, there’s plenty of time”.
He didn’t give Victorino a chance to say anything else and left.
Allyce quickly thought of Victorino’s reason for going to dinner with them.
Alonzo would be alive, thanks entirely to Desiderio’s unknown agenda.
And Victorino, as someone who was as obsessed with medical research as he was, must also have been interested in Desiderio.
The investigators are obsessed, and for Victorino, it must have been curious to know how the “k7” people managed to keep Alonzo alive.
Even Allyce couldn’t help but be a little curious.
“Come in”.
Severo’s voice interrupted Allyce’s thoughts.
Once inside the compartment he saw that Desiderio was already seated at the table.
Hearing a movement by the door, he raised his head, and the flicker of anxiety in his eyes was caught by Allyce.
He stared at the door, his light falling behind Allyce, forgetting to wave.
He really cared about Delfina.
Severo went ahead of Allyce, who at that moment was coming through the door, while Delfina was still outside.
Delfina was clearly nervous, clenching her hands and acting stiffly.
Severo gave Allyce a wink.
Allyce understood what he meant and gave Desiderio a smile: “Sorry to keep the guy waiting, I had to pick up a friend and I was a bit late, no offence, man.
With that he turned around and dragged Delfina away.
Only she cared about Delfina’s ill health and she moved quite delicately.
At the end was Alonzo.
However, Desiderio’s gaze did not stop at Alonzo.
He stared at Delfina, veins popping on his forehead, lips pursed to the corners of his mouth, and it was easy to see that he was angry.
And this anger was clearly directed at Severo and Allyce.
As if he hadn’t seen Desiderio’s disarray, Severo naturally lifted Alonzo and walked to the table and sat down.
Allyce noticed the change in Desiderio’s expression and, gathering his gaze, turned to Delfina and whispered: “Let’s sit down before we talk.
Delfina nodded and followed Allyce to sit down.
At the table, neither seemed to want to speak first.
Allyce handed the menu to Delfina: “Order first”.
Delfina’s eyes were firmly fixed on Desiderio, the doubt in her eyes very evident.
Allyce wondered why Delfina was puzzled.
Could it be because of Desiderio’s change in appearance?
Fortunately, Delfina reacted to Allyce’s words with a reluctant smile and pushed the plate back: “You order it”.
Allyce was able to understand Delfina’s current state of mind and simply began to ask for herself.
He took care of Delfina’s health and asked for very light things.
It was only after the meal was served that Desiderio finally said the first thing they said when they came in.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Betances to come with you to see me”.
Desiderio was frowning, but the smile on his face was appropriate.
“Isn’t that how it should be? You’re Allyce’s uncle and she and I are married, so we’ll have you over for dinner anyway.”
Severo used the word “elders” with great emphasis.
Desiderio’s face changed abruptly and he subconsciously looked at Delfina.
Delfina’s eyes were already full of tears, and she blinked softly before they rolled down her face in a huge puddle.
He took a deep breath and shouted, “Brother”.
Adam was much older than she was, Adam would have been twelve years old when she was born.
A twelve-year-old boy, who already remembered things and was just beginning to develop a sense of responsibility, was incredibly fond of his newborn, soft and cuddly baby sister.
He had always looked after his sister because his parents were too busy to look after them.
The relationship between the two siblings grew stronger and stronger, but on a family trip, a car accident killed both parents instantly, and their sister, who already had congenital heart disease, became even worse after the accident.
Since then, Adam has taken on the responsibility of caring for his sister.
Delfina always knew she was a burden to Adam.
Adan took care of her and never abandoned her, even in the most difficult times.
Her brother was devoted to loving her and she knew all about it.
After Adam returned home that year with a large sum of money and brought a maid and a doctor, Delfina was confused by what she understood, but was afraid to say.
He remembered his brother as a gentle and kind man.
When Desiderio heard his “brother”, the glass he had just picked up fell from his hand and crashed to the floor with a crunching sound.
Allyce took Alonzo in her arms.
Half a second later, Desiderio’s voice rang out from the box: “Severo, you are very intelligent!
His face was no longer calm and composed, there was a bitter hatred in his eyes, and his voice was a little hoarse.
Severo also put down his chopsticks and, with his gaze slightly averted, spoke unhurriedly, “In terms of skill, I’m not as good as you. How dare you use my son as a test subject and take him to Cloud Cit with a flourish, Mr. Adan, you’re so much better than I am!”
A surprised look appeared on Desiderio’s face: “I didn’t ask them to come to Cloud Cit.
It was then that he turned his head to look at Alonzo.
Had the thing he had taken out of Allyce’s body back then grown that big?
Alonzo met his gaze and grimaced, twisting his face to one side.
Desiderio had not denied his identity or the fact that the boy was an experimental subject, so it seemed that all this was true.
Severo, on the other hand, was thinking of something else.
“Ask Miss Natividad yourself, if a month ago Miss Natividad lived next door and was a neighbour of my family, and my wife used to go to dinner at her house.
Severo’s tone was languid, but his gaze was unusually sharp, as if he wanted to see Desiderio through it.
Suddenly, Desiderio pointed to Delfina and said: “I need to talk to my sister alone.
“If you have something to say, say it here”.
Severo’s meaning was clear; he was not going to allow the opportunity for Desiderio and Delfina to talk alone.
Desiderio pursed his lips tightly, his eyes angry and fierce, looking furious.
Allyce swallowed unconsciously, she had spent a whole year with this man and the following year she had not lived with him because he had gone abroad to continue studying.
Desiderio had come alone, and if Severo had not given him the opportunity to talk to Delfina alone, there was nothing he could do.
The first thing Desiderio said to Delfina was: “Who told you to come to Cloud City before?
Allyce and Severo looked at each other; hadn’t Desiderio deliberately asked Delfina to stay in Cloud City before?
Allyce had always thought that Desiderio had deliberately warned Delfina to come to Cloud City and had arranged for her to stay in a villa.
The location of the villa was deliberately chosen in Cloudy Bend so that Allyce would see them and then suspect Alonzo, to the point of provoking her and Severo.
