At that moment, the office door was pushed open from the outside.
Allyce craned her neck to look and saw that it was not Severo who had entered, but a colleague from the secretariat.
Well, LK staff are now your colleagues.
“Madam”.
As soon as the person entered, his eyes swept the room, and when he saw Allyce, his eyes lit up and he came striding towards her.
“I’m also an LK employee now, in a position no higher than yours, and you can just call me by my first name.” Allyce leaned back, her head tilted to one side, her voice breathless, she was really exhausted these days.
The president asked me to come in and tell him that he had a social function and that he had to leave early, the driver is waiting for him downstairs, when he wants to come back, come straight down”.
“A social function?” Allyce sat up straighter and raised her voice in surprise.
The colleague was slightly taken aback, not knowing why Allyce was reacting so strongly, but nodded: “Yes”.
“I’ve got it, thank you.
Allyce didn’t care, got up and walked out.
Severo doesn’t normally like to socialise, so how could he suddenly do that and not come and talk to her in person?
And when he looked at the agenda earlier, Severo didn’t have to entertain.
Anyone who gets Severo out on a whim must be a great one.
But Severo has never been one to dawdle.
A cloud of doubt in the mind.
This suspicion was magnified to the maximum when I saw Xabat at the company’s reception.
Allyce approached him and asked him directly: “Xabat, why are you still in the office and not with Severo?
Xabat turned his head and, seeing that it was Allyce, his expression turned instantly respectful.
However, he was confused by what she said, “Where to?”
“I was just told by someone in the secretariat that Severo had a temporary engagement to go to”. Allyce told the truth about what she knew.
Xabat knew Severo’s nature and could not hide the surprise in his eyes when he heard her say that.
Severo does not usually go out to social events, let alone leave Allyce at work to do so, something that even Xabat does not believe, let alone Allyce.
After a quick reflection, Xabat made an immediate decision: “I’ll ask them, first I’ll get someone to take you home.
By “they” he means the men who are at Severo’s side at all times.
“Right.” He had to go home first, with Xabat on the scene, there would be news about Severo soon, just in case Severo had already gone home.
If you were to go to a social event alone, there is a good chance that you would find it uninteresting and leave halfway through the event and go straight home.
…
Severo drove alone on the wide road.
He did not take Xabat or any other man with him.
This road is neither the direction to one of the exclusive clubs in town nor the direction back to Solares Castle.
So it went until the car stopped in front of a villa that looked familiar, and as soon as he got out of the car he hurried inside.
Victorino is preparing to leave.
If it is true that Severo’s grandmother died of mental illness, even if the Solares family has silenced everyone who knows, there will always be a leak.
With his current position in the medical profession, he would still have to go to a psychiatric hospital to find out something and someone would be willing to volunteer to tell him something.
Even if these people did not dare to tell him anything, he could find out for himself.
However, he had just left the laboratory when he saw Severo, who was walking aggressively from the opposite side.
He froze for a moment and pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose before calling out, “Sir, what brings you here?
Severo gave him a cold, frighteningly cold look.
He then staggered past Victorino and headed towards his laboratory.
Victorino knew in his heart that Severo wanted to see him, so he followed him and turned back.
When he entered, Severo was standing expressionless at his desk, pacing back and forth with a small medical clamp in his hand.
After looking at him carefully, Victorino realised that Severo was using this small gesture to distract himself and hide his violent state of mind at that moment.
“Sir, what did you want to see me about?” Victorino approached and didn’t say much more than that.
Severo opened his mouth with a question that left Victorino a little puzzled: “Allyce has been calling you a lot lately. ”
Knowing that Severo was now suspicious, he said what seemed to him the most reasonable response: “My wife and I are innocent.
“Nonsense, of course Allyce couldn’t look at you.” Severo looked at Victorino with a critical eye, as if he was that bad.
Although normally unperturbed, Victorino choked at Severo’s words and looked a little embarrassed.
Severo didn’t wait for his answer either and asked directly: “What did he want from you?
Before Victorino could say anything, he added: “It’s about me”.
Victorino looked at him sharply, but he could not read the emotions in Severo’s eyes, and finally could only reply, “Yes”.
The laboratory suddenly falls silent, except for the sound of Severo’s rapid turning of the tweezers.
Victorino’s gaze settles on the tongs in Severo’s hand and he shifts, frowning.
After half a minute, Severo suddenly released the tongs from his hand and looked at Victorino with a somewhat sombre look. “What did you find out and what did you tell him?
Victorino’s brow furrowed further and he was silent for a moment before he spoke with some difficulty: “I’ve found out, all told.
Severo took two steps in front of Victorino and squeezed his neck with one hand, in a cold voice: “You’ve been with me for more than ten years and you still don’t know who decides your fate? What gives you the right to discuss my affairs with Allyce on your own initiative?
Victorino was prepared for Severo’s emotional outburst, but when he actually saw him, there was a hint of tension in his calm eyes.
“I don’t know how to tell you your condition, and you wouldn’t believe me if I did, and you wouldn’t have realised that you were unwell until now if it weren’t for your wife’s behaviour arousing your suspicions”.
Any doctor, when dealing with a patient with a mental disorder, will have the same difficulty.
To put it bluntly, who would say “you are mentally ill” to a mentally ill person?
Victorino was a little shorter than Severo and didn’t take it well when Severo lifted him by the neck, but he didn’t resist, it just took him a little while to speak.
Severo’s grip on his neck tightened violently until he saw his face begin to turn red and purple as Severo threw him violently.
