Chapter 220: You’re going to get it worse
Silent smoke filled the air as Enzo and Severo stood face to face.
Enzo had grown up as the heir to the Aybar family, and naturally had a certain poise of which he had always been proud.
But when he was in front of Severo, he felt inexplicably inferior to him.
Enzo’s face sank and he met Severo’s gaze without showing any weakness: “It’s not certain whether Grandpa wants to see you or not!”
Severo snorted coldly, surrounded Enzo with Allyce and headed upstairs.
Enzo’s face was blue with anger and he glared hatefully at the backs of the two men, making no move.
And Senona’s face was no better than his.
He was standing next to the sofa, his hands clenched tightly, shaking with anger.
Although her heart was already squeaking with rage, she kept her face calm; after all, she had grown up playing the role of a famous lady.
With a smile on his face, he stepped forward and took Allyce’s arm, “I’d better go upstairs with her, we have something to talk about”.
Allyce let out a double laugh and pulled Senona’s hand away with a smile on her face, “I’ll go by myself, it’s just to see grandpa, don’t make it sound like a big deal.”
Allyce said, turned her head and gave Severo a reassuring look, and turned to go upstairs.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Before going up, he also said to Senona: “Sister, I’m going up first, we’ll talk when we come down”.
Senona obviously choked on her “sister”, and with an ugly face, she squeezed out a smile that was worse than crying: “OK”.
Severo waited for Allyce to disappear before turning back towards the courtyard.
He lit a cigarette and had only taken a puff when he heard footsteps coming from behind him.
Severo identified the footsteps and knew who was coming.
Senona came up behind Severo with residual anger on her face and a voice that could not be described as polite.
“Severo, keep Allyce under control and don’t let her go around stirring up trouble.
Senona’s words were unintelligible, but she was sure Severo could understand what she was saying.
Severo looked at the cigarette in his hand, which had picked up a trail of ash, and flicked it away, watching it fall into the flowerbed before turning away.
Behind him was the deep night air, and his eyes were as cold as winter. He stared at Allyce for a couple of seconds, and only after seeing Allyce shrink involuntarily did he speak faintly: “Are you talking to me?
“You!” Anger surfaced on Senona’s face, an already pale face made even harder by the illumination of the streetlights.
He shouted at him: “There is a third person here!
Severo didn’t say anything immediately, just took a slow drag on his cigarette before speaking slowly: “Oh, what did you just say?
Senona knew in her heart that Severo had said that on purpose, and she couldn’t help but tease him, “Seeing as you’re not much of a player, you’re probably the only face Allyce can look at, you think she …”
“Miss Delahoz didn’t have a good time?”
Severo spoke suddenly and interrupted her.
“What?” Senona did not react for a moment to what he meant.
Severo threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground and lifted his foot to step on it, twisting it with the sole of his foot as he spoke carelessly: “This is just the beginning, you’ll get worse later.
He did not look up as he spoke, as if he were casually talking to someone, and as if he could not look at Senona.
But Senona clearly sensed an eerie aura about him, and stumbled twice in fright, steadying herself narrowly, “What do you mean?”
Just now, when he had seen the way Enzo had treated Allyce, he had been so angry that he had gritted his teeth, but he couldn’t do that in front of Enzo.
So he had to take it out on Severo, who seemed the least privileged, and had said those words deliberately to upset Severo.
No man can stand it when his wife gets involved with a better man than him.
Severo finally gave up and looked at Senona, his gaze was cold: “You know yourself”.
And with that, Severo walked away down the corridor.
Senona didn’t follow him, she remembered what Severo had just said and quickly caught a hint of what was going on.
— Was it a bad time for Ms. Delahoz?
— This is just the beginning, it will get worse later on.
Had her mother’s sentencing, her wedding and the revelation that she had framed Allyce put her reputation on the line, even though she had denied it?
If Severo had anything to do with it …
Allyce felt a shiver run down her spine at the thought.
…
Allyce walked up to the door of Casimiro’s studio on the ground floor, reached out and knocked on the door.
“Come in”.
Casimiro’s voice soon came from inside.
Allyce pushed open the door and discovered that, in addition to Eric, there was another woman.
The woman was small, young-looking and had a friendly air about her.
When he saw Allyce enter, he gave her a friendly smile.
Allyce saw her sitting next to Eric and wasn’t sure what her relationship with him was, so she just looked at her too, without any further expression.
“Allyce is here, sit on Grandpa’s side.”
Casimiro looked at Allyce with a loving gaze.
Allyce couldn’t help but reach over and wrap her arms around herself, thinking that the word “affectionate” was fine for Casimir, but that it would be rare for Casimir to be “affectionate” with her.
With that in mind, Allyce approached him without messing up his face.
“Allyce and I have something to talk about, so you can go.”
Once Allyce was seated, Casimiro made an impatient gesture and told Eric and the woman to leave.
A flash of embarrassment crossed Eric’s face, and the woman sitting next to him reached out and patted his leg, sending a reassuring message, before Eric’s face improved.
Allyce understood the relationship between the two men at that moment.
I just didn’t know if Eric had met this woman before Elvira’s sentencing or after.
No wonder Senona looked so bad.
“Allyce, this is too confusing for your uncle, Elvira was only sentenced to prison before and took someone home afterwards, which would have been fine, this woman is now pregnant and it’s been a hectic time recently … Phew, confusing!”
Casimiro’s face was tired, a look of complaint.
Allyce raised her eyebrows slightly, her heart slightly surprised that it was true that Eric had hooked up with another woman before Elvira was convicted.
