Chapter 223: Men conquer the world, women conquer men
Leira just leaned gently into Eric’s arms and shook her head silently.
Although he didn’t say anything, Eric’s eyes looked as if he was afraid that he would be ashamed and bear the aggravation.
Eric shot a look of disgust at Senona before whispering to Leira: “Let’s go to our room.
Allyce looked straight ahead and sighed in amazement.
Suddenly he understood the saying that men conquer the world and women conquer men.
Now it seemed that there was nothing wrong with that saying.
Senona trembled with rage at Eric.
She had grown up in the Delahoz family and was loved by all members of the Delahoz family except Allyce, not to mention her own father Eric.
But now, Eric had snubbed her for a strange woman, and though he had not reprimanded her, he could feel Eric’s displeasure with her.
“Wait!”
Senona came out and reached out to stop Eric and Leira, her tone slightly agitated, “Dad, what good is this woman? She’s a liar, she’s the one Allyce found to divide us, Dad, don’t trust her!
Allyce, who was drinking her soup from a bowl, shot a curious glance at Eric when she heard Senona’s words.
Eric scolded with a serious look on his face: “Shut up!
“Dad!” Senona looked at Eric in disbelief.
It was the first time Eric had scolded her like that since she had grown up, and of course she couldn’t stand it.
“Dad, are you shouting at me because of an outsider?
Senona said, and her eyes reddened.
After all, she was the daughter Eric had grown up with, so he looked at her with a soft heart and reached out to pat her on the shoulder: “OK, let it go, Leira is not an outsider, she’s part of this family, get along with her and let me worry less.
Eric kept talking about Leira, which infuriated Senona even more.
But he knew he couldn’t confront Eric now, and as for Leira …
His eyes rested on Leira’s stomach.
This child, who will be born to share the Delahoz family fortune, is not yet a certainty.
With that in mind, Senona calmed down, her face relieved and she replied, “I know, I was too impulsive a moment ago, from now on, I’ll get along with her.”
“Yes.
Eric nodded, said “Get some rest,” and left with Leira.
Senona looked behind her, gnashing her teeth in hatred.
Allyce finished her bowl of soup slowly, stood up to brush her long curly hair away from her chest and looked at Senona with a smile, “Miss Sada’s cooking is good, isn’t it? Do you want to try it?”
“Hmph!”Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Senona snorted: “Get out of my way!
Allyce looked at her, lifted her foot and walked out the door.
…
She and Senona headed upstairs, one after the other.
In the corridor, they collided head-on with Enzo, who was walking towards them.
He saw Allyce and his face lit up with joy: “Allyce”.
Without waiting for a response from Allyce, Senona, who was walking behind her, quickly stepped forward.
He took Enzo’s arm and smiled back at Allyce as if swearing sovereignty: “Allyce, we’ll talk tomorrow, get some rest”.
Allyce reached into her coat pocket, her frown was distant and she said nothing.
“Allyce’s bedroom door creaked open, and Severo stood in the doorway, in his dressing gown, his eyes clear and unclouded.
Allyce clenched her hand in her coat pocket, a flash of unease on her face, before stepping forward and walking quickly.
Senona had expected such blatant disregard from Allyce.
He turned to Enzo with his normal face: “Let’s go to our room and rest”.
Enzo ignored her and raised his head slightly to look at Severo.
Severo was picking up Allyce and pushing her inside when he felt Enzo’s gaze and with a warning glance back, he entered and closed the door behind him.
Senona had suffered too much tonight, and at that moment, seeing Enzo looking at her, she finally snapped.
“If you’re so sad to get rid of him, go to his room too!”
“What are you talking about!”
Enzo was made uncomfortable by Senona’s high-pitched voice, and with a frown, he pushed her into the room.
Senona stumbled as she was pushed, gasped violently and said with red eyes, “Did you push me?”
“What’s wrong with pushing you? You’re the one who’s being unreasonable.” A flash of disgust crossed Enzo’s face.
Senona was already a scandal, and he would not have married her if Jonas had not threatened him with the Aybar family inheritance, or if he had not been pressured to do so.
“Am I unreasonable?” Senona laughs in exasperation: “Why didn’t you stay with Allyce when she liked you? Now that she’s married to someone else and involved with the president of LK, do you think she can still see you!”.
“Shut up!”
The sound of a crisp slap echoed in the room, accompanied by Enzo’s voice in full fury.
Senona held her position of being hit on the side of her head for a long time before turning her head to look at Enzo, her voice a little hollow: “Did you hit me?”
Enzo looked at Senona’s already swollen face and a flash of surprise crossed his face.
After all that had happened in the meantime, I was disappointed with Senona, but she was still a childhood friend growing up together.
Nor did he think he really would.
“Sorry …,” he said, too angry.
Senona went ahead: “It was my fault, I shouldn’t have said those things.
Enzo watched her cover her face, looking lost in thought, and felt a little uncomfortable after all.
“That’s it, I was the one who was too impulsive, does it hurt?”. Enzo reached out and took her in his arms.
Senona leaned obediently into his arms, and where he couldn’t see, a flash of anger shone in her eyes, “It’s okay, it doesn’t hurt me …”
Enzo was right, she wasn’t wrong, it was Allyce who was to blame, it was all Allyce’s fault!
Everything that happened today, she would have to pay Allyce back one day.
…
On the other hand, Allyce entered the room and prepared to talk to him about Leira.
Consequently, once Severo entered the room, he leaned alone on the bed and nonchalantly took a juvenile book from the bookshelf at the headboard ….
As this was the room in which Allyce had lived until she was eighteen, the decoration of the room, and everything else, was entirely girlish.
And the room was still intact, thanks to Senona’s desire to show her generosity.
Allyce rubbed up against her, “I’m talking to you …”
“Go and take a shower.
Severo turned a page and stepped aside, shielding Allyce’s face with the book and spitting out those words coldly.
Allyce blinked, with a little helplessness in her heart, the great President Delahoz was angry again.
