Chapter 215: Don’t ever be cold to me again
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud “crash” and Severo suddenly jumped out of the bath.
Allyce reacted by slamming the door.
Soon, Severo’s voice entered the room again.
“Allyce, come in.
Allyce asked in an unpleasant voice: “What do you want again?
“Wash my hair.
The next thing he heard was a thud from the bathroom and he pushed the door open abruptly.
Severo was sitting on the edge of the bathtub in a loose bathrobe, with the shower falling to the floor in front of him.
As soon as she saw Allyce, she frowned and said in disgust: “I have to wash my hair.
After what happened earlier, Allyce wasn’t sure if Severo was awake at the time, so she played along with Severo and washed his hair.
Severo’s hair was short, so he washed it quickly and was very cooperative during the process.
When she finished, Allyce took the hairdryer and blew her hair.
As he blew on it, he felt a tightness around his waist and looked down to see Severo putting his hands on his waist.
Severus looked at Allyce, his half-lidded eyes looking less than intimidating: “Come on!”
And then, as if he had no bones, he wrapped his arms around Allyce’s waist and leaned into her.
His hairy, wet head arched in front of her, and then there was no sound.
Allyce was already much shorter than him, and in his current position, Allyce was unable to reach her.
After a couple of seconds of hesitation, he continued to dry her hair.
Once his hair was dry, he dragged Severo, who was staggering, back to bed.
When she finally got Severo into bed, she was sweating profusely.
Once Severo was in bed, he covered himself with the sheets and no longer complained.
Only then did Allyce go to the bathroom to take a shower.
…
Allyce thought the night would be quiet.
Halfway through the shower, he heard Severo shout: “Allyce, where have you been?
Allyce couldn’t help but stare at the ceiling and roll her eyes, and hurried to finish her shower and get out in her pyjamas.
As soon as he came out, he saw Severo with his bare feet on the ground, frowning, looking a little anxious and angry, as opposed to his usual grumpy face.
When he heard the door open, he walked towards her and took her in his arms: “Where have you been?
Allyce spat out two breathless words: “Bathing”.
I was using the shower, couldn’t I hear the water?
“Oh, a shower.” Severo’s voice was muffled, “I couldn’t sleep without you.”
With that, he pulled Allyce towards the bed, bumping into a sofa chair in the process, and Allyce said uneasily, “Put me down.”
I don’t know whether Severo heard it or not, but he ignored it.
Although he did not walk very steadily, he oddly placed Allyce firmly on the bed, then closed his eyes with a reassuring look.
Allyce was a bit restrained and did not hear an answer even after calling him twice.
Had he fallen asleep so early?
Allyce looked at his face close to him and couldn’t help but reach out and give his hand a gentle squeeze, grumbling under her breath, “Spinning when you’re drunk, not drinking anymore!”
“Good …”
Severo suddenly reached out to touch her face, Allyce was startled and hastily withdrew her hand.
A flash of loss crossed his heart, how dare he not allow her to drink.
He was Severo, he could do whatever he wanted, let alone drink.
…
The first thing that happened was that Severo became restless in the second half of the night.
Allyce, who had not slept well, woke up quickly.
He thought she wanted a drink of water, so he went downstairs and poured her a big glass of water and gave it to her.
Severo drank the entire glass of water in one gulp and then glared at her.
Allyce felt so uncomfortable by his gaze that she remembered it was the middle of the night and he had already cleared ….
She was stunned and said nervously, “Go to bed …”.
“Mmm.” Severo replied in a muffled voice.
Allyce turned off the light and went back to bed, as if the dream had gone out along with the light going out.
It was a long moment before she turned around and turned her back to Severo, but soon Severo’s long arms were around her, pressing against her and calling out, “Wife”.
Allyce was so surprised by the suddenness of her “wife” that she didn’t dare move.
He called again, and this time Allyce could hear him clearly, his soft, warm voice brushing against her ear, making her shiver.
But still he did not move.
Severo’s kiss had fallen, softly kissing her face, his voice lightening in the dark night but little by little, “It’s my fault, don’t have a baby if you don’t want to, stop getting angry and don’t ignore me …”
Although she was past the age of hearing love in her ears, Allyce’s heart was softening as she listened to these words.
Severo went on to say something.
Allyce couldn’t pretend to be asleep, so she turned around to face him and stepped back to put some distance between them, “When have I ever ignored you?”
Severo left the subject alone: “We’ll have a wedding next spring, OK?
“I already answered that question during the day”. She wouldn’t have a wedding with someone who didn’t love her.
Severo was silent for a few seconds before she spoke: “And if the conditions are met, you don’t want to marry me either?
As Severo spoke, his other hand had caught Allyce’s clinging hand.
He broke her fingers and took her hand, pressing it to his heart with a solemnity never seen in his voice: “I’m a real businessman, I always do more than I say”.
Allyce shrugged her hand but did not withdraw it, stammering, “I-I don’t understand what you mean”.
“You do understand.” Severo’s voice was confident, “You’re so smart, you even stole my heart, what’s there that you can’t understand”.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“I …”
Allyce’s mind went blank for a moment and she thought she must have misheard.
The darkness made her feel dangerous.
But for someone like Severo, the darkness was full of security.
“Allyce, you can’t be so cold to me anymore, I’m … for you.”
He meant that he was very kind to her and that he always broke her heart.
But then he remembered that he had not been at all kind to her these days.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her, he just didn’t feel safe.
Because there was only one Allyce in the world, and what would he do if someone took her away?
“Are you really awake, now?” asked Allyce uncertainly, with caution in her voice.
Severus listened in anger and anguish, pulling her into his arms, then rolling onto his back, an evil tone in his voice: “I’ll tell you if I’m sober now.
