“Here it comes.
When Allyce looked at him, Tajo looked back at her.
Strangely enough, there was a smile on his face.
There seemed to be some reluctance, but then they had to hold back a smile to face them.
Allyce looked at Severo, but found him looking as normal as if he hadn’t noticed that Tajo was out of his mind.
“Grandfather.” Allyce followed Severo and called out to him as well.
Tajo nodded and said with an enthusiastic look on his face, “Sit down, everyone.
The two men had to sit next to him.
Severo didn’t let go of Allyce’s hand even after he sat down.
This small gesture was rarely noticed, but not by Betsalem, who kept an eye on the situation around here.
Betsalem hadn’t opened his eyes since Severo and Allyce came in, and he didn’t even pay attention to what his best sister was saying.
“Betsalem? Did you hear what I was saying?”
She did not react until the disgruntled colleague next to her hit her with her arm.
“I’m sorry, what did you just say?” Betsalem came to his senses at that, with a puzzled look on his face.
Although he did not like Betsalem’s reaction, he had to repeat what he had just said because he was concerned about Betsalem’s family background.
“Have you seen that man? He’s a half-breed, tall and handsome, I don’t know how good it would feel if I could have a spring with him …” the companion was already inebriated as she spoke.
Betsalem followed her gaze and saw a handsome man holding a glass of wine in a gesture of toast to her.
The man has black hair and brown eyes. At first glance, he is a half-caste, but I don’t know what country he is from.
Only that man, however, was someone she knew.
The youngest son of the ruler of the Solares family, whose name is Lorenzo.
As the head of the Solares family is from Z, all his children have Chinese names.
There are few women in J who would not want to marry into the Solares family, and even a royal princess married into the Solares family is a good match.
In J, the Solares family is a symbol of wealth and prosperity.
Because she was obsessed with the man called Severo, she had secretly asked someone to investigate the leading members of the Solares family.
And this Lorenzo was a hustler with a rotten reputation.
But since he is a Solares, there are still plenty of women willing to climb into his bed.
Betsalem decided it was best to warn his partner.
“If I may remind you, that man is scum, he has a bad reputation in the community, he’s a Solares, and if you insist on going after him, you’ll have to fend for yourself.”
Unfortunately, Betsalem’s gentle reminder did not deter her companion.
She looked at Betsalem with a look of love, her cheeks flushed: “I have never seen a man so attracted to me, I would not miss this opportunity, I think I have found love”.
Betsalem shrugged: “Well, good luck with that”.
Hopefully the poor woman will not regret her decision today.
“Thank you, my dear.”
Only after watching his companion walk away did Betsalem turn his head towards Severo.
As soon as Allyce sat down, she felt a gaze following her closely.
No, Severo, to be precise.
He raised his eyes to look and met Betsalem’s eyes.
Allyce narrowed her eyes slightly, remembering for a moment before she remembered that this woman was the same one she had met on the first day when she had brought Severo lunch.
Dita had told him that the woman’s name was Betsalem.
The names of foreigners are always a long list, and it is good to remember them.
Betsalem was not at all embarrassed to be caught peeping, but politely raised his glass to Allyce, his ice-blue eyes, the same colour as Dita’s, sparkling with a sensual glow.
Two words immediately came to Allyce’s mind: Euphoria.
She wore a long, shoulder-length black dress with a bowler hat, her make-up was delicate and smouldering, and today she looked like a mermaid in the dark.
Allyce couldn’t help but look at her make-up for the day.
She wore a sleeveless knee-length black dress in a minimalist style.
She was wearing the same black dress as Betsalem, but although she looked very glamorous in it, she looked plain and simple.
He had to mentally reassure himself that it must be because the styles were different.
Among women, there is always a comparison of appearance and dress, and she was looking closely at Allyce as she compared her dress with his.
Most of the Oriental women he comes into contact with are stars, and this Mrs. Betances, even more beautiful than those stars.
Apart from its beauty, it must have something to offer Severo that cannot be taken lightly.
Severo was distracted by Allyce, although he was listening to Tajo.
Seeing that she was still looking in the same direction, he followed her line of sight and happened to see Betsalem.
Something flashed through his mind and he spoke aloud: “Mahoney’s daughter, what are you looking at her for?
“She’s beautiful.” Allyce pursed her lips and tilted her head to look at him.
Severo stared at her for a few seconds and then suddenly spoke: “Not even close to you.
Allyce swore to God that when she said Betsalem was beautiful, she meant it, but when Severo said it, it sounded like she said it on purpose to make him bitter.
However, it sounded quite pleasant to the ear.
“What nonsense …” Even if it was soft in his ear, he was too watered down with it.
Betsalem is indeed prettier than her.
“You think I deliberately say things against my will to please you?” Severus raised an eyebrow and looked at the fool.
Allyce ignored his gaze and merely blinked.
“It’s been a long time, Count Castaneda”.
Before Allyce could think of anything to say, a female voice came from up ahead.
He looks up and the woman in front of him is none other than Betsalem.
Betsalem greets Tajo with grace and poise.
When he felt Allyce’s gaze, he turned his head towards her, his smile did not change, “I think it’s Mrs. Betances, how do you do, I’m Betsalem, I don’t know if Mr. Betances has told you about me”.
She smiles and offers her hand to Allyce with a charming smile. She smiles and holds out her hand to Allyce with a charming smile and an unusually well pronounced comment, unlike other Severo obsessed women who open their mouths in sarcasm and derision.
A woman’s intuition lets Allyce know that Betsalem is in love with Severo.
It is not uncommon for a good woman to like an equally good man.
This man is her husband, and I wonder if this Miss Betsalem, knowing Severo’s erratic character, will still like him.
