Allyce finished and waited for Severo to say something.
It turned out that after a long while, Severo had no intention of speaking again.
Allyce had to ask him: “Do you know who that is? Tell me.
Severo’s eyes were fixed on the road, and he was driving so carefully that when Allyce got tired of waiting, he said slowly, “I don’t know”.
“You really don’t know?” Allyce didn’t think it was possible, she thought Severo must know something.
Severo turned his head to look at her: “We’re back home.
Allyce then realised that the two were talking and, before she knew it, they were in her house.
When she got out of the car, Allyce was ready to continue with her questions, but was accosted by Alonzo as soon as she entered the villa.
…
Although Victorino had said that it would be best for Severo to put his work aside for a while, it had been a long time since Severo had taken care of business and the work that had piled up was too much.
It was not only him, but also Allyce.
So Allyce talked to Severo: “You take care of work in the morning, and then you spend the afternoon with Alonzo, and play with him after the siesta.
Severo raised his eyebrows and said neither yes nor no, but simply asked: “And you?
Allyce suddenly felt like teasing him and, holding back her laughter, said in a serious tone, “I’m going to work to support you while you stay home with the children. Isn’t it great to have a wife like me?
After saying that, he couldn’t help but laugh first.
Severo’s handsome face remained expressionless, and Allyce wondered, “Isn’t this funny?
After a long while, Severo pinched his face and said: “Yes.
His tone did not sound at all like a joke, there was even a hint of seriousness in his expression, and his dark eyes were fixed on Allyce as if he wanted to absorb her.
Allyce blinked, touched her face where Severo had pinched it and said, “All right then, I’ll go to work tomorrow.
Severo merely replied with a faint “Hmm”.
Seeing that she was fine with it, Allyce thought about what she had intended to do earlier.
He deliberated for a moment and spoke seriously: “Severo, I’ve thought about it, why don’t you buy the Alvídrez Group, I don’t want to be travelling to Ciudad del Cielo all the time”.
If Severo had not bought Alvidrez, he would have had to travel a long way to Ciudad del Cielo.
But he didn’t like the idea of having to travel all the time, and now he wants a quiet life.
When Severo bought the group from Alvidrez, he would send someone from his company to Ciudad del Cielo to manage it, and she would stay at Cloud Cit and work at Moon Culture Media.
Almost immediately, Severo said: “No way”.
“Why?” Allyce wondered, wouldn’t Severo have been happier, given his nature?
The main reason he had sent her to Ciudad del Cielo earlier to take care of the Alvidrez group was also because her health had deteriorated.
Severo said patiently: “If you are too lazy to manage, I can have someone else do it for you, or I can do it for you, but as for a takeover, that is not possible.
The Alvidrez family was the wealthiest in Ciudad del Cielo and the Alvidrez group had been passed down from generation to generation, but the Alvidrez family was so rare that in Desiderio’s generation, Allyce’s mother died in childbirth and Desiderio died of an illness, and there was no one left but Allyce.
The acquisition of the Alvidrez Group was a good thing for Severo, but the threat of Grizzi had not yet been completely eliminated and if the Alvidrez Group was acquired and became a brand of the LK Group, there was a good chance that the whole thing would go bankrupt.
Although unlikely, the Alvidrez Group is owned by Allyce and took an unnecessary risk to acquire it.
In other words, Grizzi’s target is the LK Group, which is based in J in Europe, and Grizzi could find an entry point if he wanted to.
The Alvidrez group is in Z, which is also one of the country’s leading companies and has a major impact on Z’s economy. When Grizzi gets hold of it, the government authorities will not stand idly by.
Grizzi may be arrogant, but his roots are in Europe, and they still distrust Z.
“Why don’t you buy it?” Allyce insisted a little on this question.
Severo leaned towards her and kissed her on the lips, his voice low, “What is there to buy, I’ll send someone to arrange it for you”.
Allyce heard the displeasure in his tone and grunted softly, no acquisition was no big deal, she didn’t want him to find someone to manage for her, she could manage on her own.
…
The following period of time, Allyce lived a very quiet life.
As I said before, she went to work and Severo stayed at home.
Every afternoon, when I came home from work, I saw Severo with Alonzo watering the plants in the garden, like a normal father and son.
Severo stays at home every day and does not wear formal clothes, he wears casual house clothes and has short hair, he looks several years younger.
Allyce, on the other hand, feels that this life is too quiet.
There is no news of Amado Mejía’s death, there is no news of Adán, who was the person who instructed Amado Mejía to drug Severo. …
These questions remain unanswered and, although they do not seem to affect their lives, hidden concerns remain.
But seeing how relaxed Severo was, Allyce didn’t bother to think about it.
When Allyce returned from work that day, she saw two bodyguards carrying a sack of stuff out of the villa.
Allyce was a little confused: “What is this?”
One of the bodyguards was quick to say: “This is an overbuy by the family’s maids when they were buying vegetables, and they spoiled before they finished cooking them, these are the bad vegetables”.
Were there so many bad dishes?
Allyce nodded even though her heart was a little disconcerted.
The two bodyguards then carried the sack and continued walking outside.
Allyce turned around and saw a red stain on the edge of the bag, like blood.
As it was a spoiled dish, it had to be both meat and vegetables, so it was no surprise.
Allyce didn’t think too much about it and went straight to the villa.
“Where is the master?” Allyce asked the maid where Severo was as soon as she entered.
The maid replied hastily: “The master and the master are in the study.
Allyce sniffed, nodded and headed straight for the studio.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Severo sitting at his desk writing something, and Alonzo sitting at his desk, holding a piece of something in his hand and tugging at it, mumbling something under his breath.
This harmonious and touching image brought a smile to Allyce’s face.
“Alonzo! Mommy’s home.” Allyce closed the door and walked steadily towards her.
As soon as Alonzo saw Allyce, he stood up with his little arms outstretched and asked Allyce to hug him.
Allyce picked him up and kissed him on the cheek: “Has the baby been good today?
Alonzo blinked and said out loud, “Yes~”
He seemed obviously very happy.
Severo just looked at the two mothers and the children and then lowered his head again.
“What are you doing?” Allyce, with Alonzo in her arms, approached Severo to see what he was writing and wondered, “What are you writing an invitation for?”
Severo explained: “In a few days Alonzo will be two years old.
Allyce exclaimed in surprise, “Are you going to organise a birthday party for him?”
“Yes.” Severo replied in a weak voice.
Allyce looked at the invitation he had written and saw that he did not invite all his business partners, but also some people like Marco ….
