I had just come downstairs and had not seen the two mothers and children coming down, so they must have gone to the children’s room opposite.
He turned around and headed for the children’s room opposite.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Allyce leaning on the bed, phone in hand, not knowing what she was reading.
His face was relieved, his voice still a little strained: “Why are you bringing Alonzo here?
Allyce took her eyes off the phone screen, turned her head to look at Severo, and then said lightly, “Didn’t you make this nursery so Alonzo could sleep alone? Now I’m helping him get used to it.
Severo didn’t mind that she spoke with wide eyes, there was a hint of command in her tone: “Go to your room”.
“No, the children’s room is already done, it wouldn’t be worth having it empty, I’ll sleep here with Alonzo for a few days and maybe he’ll get used to it”.
Allyce said and smiled slightly at Severo, as if nothing had happened.
“Allyce!” Severo couldn’t help but say her name out loud.
How could he not know that what Allyce was saying was just an excuse?
Allyce was not startled by Severo’s cries, she reached out and patted Alonzo lightly twice before speaking with a somewhat reproachful wu: “Keep your voice down, Alonzo is asleep.
Severo frowned slightly: “Did you have to sleep in a separate room from me today?
“Not to sleep in a separate room from you, I just wanted to stay with Alonzo to get used to sleeping in this room”. Allyce explained lightly, there was no bad mood on her face at all, everything seemed normal.
“I disagree, go to your room.” Severo’s tone had a hint of command.
“Stop it, you’ve had a busy day, aren’t you tired? Go get some rest.
Allyce said, and prepared to lie down and go to sleep.
As a result, before she had a chance to lie down, she felt herself being lifted horizontally.
“What are you doing!” Allyce spoke softly, aware that Alonzo was asleep.
Severo said as he led her to the master bedroom: “Take your wife to her room and go to sleep.
His tone was serious and his face was unimpressive, but he was very serious.
Allyce couldn’t do anything with him like that and became a little exasperated, “You …”.
“It was my fault for not warning you about Alonzo’s birthday party …” Severo didn’t look at her, he just continued, “I invited so many people, whether it was the mastermind who drugged me, or the one who gave me the mastermind who drugged me, or Grizzi’s people, surely someone would have come.”
Allyce finally realised, Severo was explaining about Alonzo’s birthday party.
“I didn’t tell you when you asked me before because I didn’t want you to worry, I’ll just do this, you don’t have to worry so much.”
Severo’s tone became calmer the more he spoke.
Allyce was not surprised to hear this.
Because she had guessed something a long time ago, she just hadn’t been sure.
As soon as she heard about the mastermind who had drugged her, as well as about Grizzi, her heart tightened.
“Have you been well? Nothing happened at the party, did it?”. When he told her not to worry, he had simply told her and Tajo to stay away from the party, and she wasn’t worried?
If there was no danger, why didn’t he let her, Alonzo and Tajo stay in the ballroom with him?
On the other hand, it showed that in Severo’s heart, Tajo’s place was as important as hers and Alonzo’s in his.
“I’m fine and the banquet was quiet, only a few of Grizzi’s men captured and without access to the little people that give the organisation its core, the banquet meant nothing. At this point, Severo’s voice cooled slightly.
The two men had already entered the room.
Severo put Allyce down, looked her in the eye and said, “Do you still want to sleep in a separate room from me?
Allyce opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
He felt that Severo was doing something really strange now, having to wait for her to get angry to explain, after all they had been through together, wouldn’t it be better for him to tell her what he was going to do, first thing in the morning?
After all, was it because he didn’t trust her enough in his heart?
Allyce hesitated, and in the end did not speak her mind.
He turned his head to look away, “I didn’t say I was going to sleep in a separate room from you, you said it yourself, I was just going to keep Alonzo company.
Severo just raised an eyebrow and didn’t look like he was going to beat around the bush with her on the subject again.
“Okay, move over, I’m going to sleep with Alonzo on the other side of the room.” Allyce nudged him.
After Severo explained to him about Alonzo’s birthday party, he could understand but he was not going to forgive him this easily.
Allyce felt that, apart from the fact that Severo didn’t quite trust her, there was another reason why she had never really been angry with him.
Whenever he kept something from her, in the end, she forgave him without even a transition.
That’s why Severo was always like that.
And this time, it was not going to be so easy.
Severo did not move, and Allyce knew that Severo was not happy in his mind to leave normality.
She went straight to the side and stepped barefoot onto the ground to get out.
As a result, before her feet touched the floor, she was lifted and thrown straight onto the bed.
Allyce lay on her back, her mind slightly dazed from the fall.
He held his forehead and was about to turn around and get up when Severo was already reaching out to rip off his clothes.
“Severo, you …” Allyce’s voice held a gentle tremor of embarrassment.
Son of a bitch, every time it came time for the two of them to fight and bicker, he had only one trick up his sleeve.
Allyce bit her lip, her face reddening as she reached out to shove Severo.
Severo grabbed her wrist with his backhand, with an unusually serious expression: “Don’t move, I’m going to look at your chest ….”.
Allyce froze.
The summer pyjamas were thin and he ripped them easily, and when his gaze went to where Allyce’s chest was, he caught a glimpse of the bruised and purple area.
Allyce’s skin was very white and the skin on her body was so delicate that the bruise was especially hard.
Allyce saw that he was looking at her chest, and although she knew he was looking at the place where she had been beaten, he had taken all her clothes off after all.
Although she and Severo had come clean countless times long ago, this feeling of being undressed and having him look at her one by one at … was still uncontrollable and a bit shy.
“It doesn’t really hurt, so don’t look. I’m a little cold.” Allyce’s words had barely left her mouth when she gave a cold hiss.
When Severo reached over and pressed the bruised skin.
Severo heard his cold hiss and, as if electrocuted, drew back his hand, his eyes dark and vaguely self-conscious.
