Allyce noticed Severo’s increasingly smug look and, annoyed, lunged forward, hitting Severo hard on the forehead.
“There was a loud bang and Allyce got a little dizzy from the impact.
Severo let out a cold “hiss” of pain.
Allyce was a little dizzy, but still in pain.
When Severo unconsciously touched his forehead and withdrew his arm, Allyce grunted and rubbed his forehead as he got out of bed.
He felt that the restored Severo liked to walk around him more than before.
Severo didn’t stop her, he turned around and sat on the bed, raising his eyes to Allyce with a serious look between his eyebrows, “Are you taking revenge like this, aren’t you happy with what you just did?”
He said, going to unbutton his shirt.
Allyce almost gritted her teeth and said: “You bastard!
With that he opened the door to his room and went downstairs.
…
It was almost noon when they got ready and went to Neto’s house, because the two of them had been hanging around the house for a while in the morning.
Allyce got out of the car and looked at the villa in front of her; it was her first time at Neto’s house.
She couldn’t wait to see her son, she hadn’t seen him for a few days and she missed him a lot. She hadn’t even thought about Severo that much.
“Neto!”
She was the first to enter the courtyard, and when she saw that it was quiet, she couldn’t help shouting Neto’s name.
But he called twice in a row, but got no answer from Neto.
“He’s not home?” Allyce turned her head towards Severo, confused.
At the same moment, the door of the cottage was pushed open from the inside.
Allyce turned her head and looked towards the door: “Neto”.
After seeing who was at the door, Allyce turned his words around and shouted dryly: “Monsieur Pastrano”.
It was not Neto who opened the door, but Marco.
Marco was surprised to see Allyce and Severo, but quickly recovered his expression and nodded imperceptibly, “Monsieur Betances, Madame Betances”.
His face changed slightly as he looked at Severo.
Severo also just nodded towards Marco and said nothing.
Allyce didn’t like talking to Marco much and had told him off the last time.
I should have thought of that, Marco must be in Neto’s house too.
It didn’t matter, it was unlikely that she and Marco would ever cross paths again and apologising to him was out of place, besides she didn’t feel she had done anything wrong.
Allyce merely pretended to have memory loss and pretended not to remember the last time she asked directly, “Where’s Neto? Isn’t he at home?”
“Lately he’s been staying in the office”. Marco answered truthfully.
Allyce sniffed and couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Severo.
Severo had called Neto before coming to ….
Severo also frowned and said no more, reached over and pulled Allyce and turned to leave.
He didn’t say a word to Marco from start to finish.
It was obvious that Marco was curious about Severo, but he was not going to be given the opportunity to ask any more questions, so he could go and investigate himself.
When the two returned to the car, Allyce asked him: “Didn’t you call Neto before?
Severo raised an eyebrow, “He didn’t say he lived in the office lately.”
She should have called Neto herself to avoid a useless trip.
…
The two went together again to Neto’s office, where they finally met Alonzo, who had been separated for days.
“Alonzo,” Allyce said, running to Alonzo as soon as she saw him.
Severo approached slowly with his hands in the pockets of his suit trousers.
Alonzo was talking to Allyce and when he looked up and saw Severo, his eyes lit up and he suddenly called out to Severo with a happy smile: “Dad, you’re finally awake!
“Yes.” Severo replied indifferently and then knelt down, reaching out to lift him up.
Alonzo looked at him with a happy face and, as if something had occurred to him, he leaned his head towards Severo’s ear and whispered: “You used to sleep all the time and mummy cried.
Severo froze and looked at Allyce.
He didn’t really feel anything from the five days he had been “asleep”, except that when he woke up, he was happy to see Allyce sleeping on the edge of his bed.
Allyce had lost a lot of weight, she was fine, but it was hard for her.
“What did you say about not letting me know?” Allyce had just seen Alonzo and Severo whispering.
She couldn’t help feeling a little jealous – didn’t all children kiss their mothers?
It had been many days since he had seen Alonzo, and he whispered to Severo as soon as he saw him.
“Tell mum, what did you say?”. Severo switched hands and continued to hold Alonzo, who he noticed had become a little heavier after not being held for days.
Alonzo broke his chubby little hand and mumbled, “Nothing”.
“Little baby.” Allyce couldn’t resist reaching out to pinch his face.
Alonzo smiled and buried his head in Severo’s arms.
At that moment, Neto, who had been staring at him, couldn’t help but say, “I say good for both of you for not informing me of such a big event as the recovery of health!”
Allyce smiled and explained, “Because we want to get home early so we can invite you to dinner again.
Neto raised his arms and said: “At least let me take some firecrackers to pick you up from the hospital”.
At that moment the office door was pushed open and Lucila entered with a tea.
“Allyce, Severo, please, have some tea. With a squeeze of his eyes towards Allyce, he placed the tea in front of each of the two men.
Neto asked in an outburst: “Where is mine?
Lucila looked at him: “You don’t like this …”.
Neto glared at her: “What are you talking about, I’m the boss, what do you mean with that tone of voice, you want to go to heaven!
“I don’t dare. Lucila looked at him with an impatient face: “Good, good, now I’ll go and make you some tea”.
Hearing his tone as if he was cajoling a child, Neto was not happy again.
He pointed to Lucila and said: “Come back here, I want to correct your attitude.
Does Lucila listen to him? Of course she doesn’t.
Seeing that Lucila ignored him, Neto snorted and sat down in front of Allyce and Severo: “Look at that, guys, my secretary is so condescending!”
Severo spoke coldly: “You can fire her”.
“I’m …” Neto said for a moment, choking before saying, “Am I so mean? I won’t fire her.
Allyce couldn’t help but laugh out loud: “What’s your problem?
Neto’s face darkened, his expression seemed to say: “How did you know?
