Chapter 226: You Have Five Seconds to Think About It
Feelings?
Senona is a good liar.
Allyce watched Senona’s charade with cold eyes and a cold heart.
“Have you said everything you had to say?” Allyce raised an eyebrow and asked Senona in turn.
Senona’s face showed a hint of sadness, “Allyce, you … don’t believe me?”
Trust Senona?
It’s like trusting a dog.
“Severo is my husband, and I know exactly what kind of man he is.” Allyce stared at Senona, her gaze steady.
Senona sniffed, a pitying expression immediately appearing on her face: “We are family.
“That’s enough!”
Casimiro, the head of the family, finally spoke.
There was a glint of triumph in Senona’s eyes.
Allyce didn’t believe her because what she said wasn’t true, but the rest of the Delahoz family, especially Casimiro, would surely believe her.
As a result, Allyce would become more hated by the Delahoz family.
Even if Allyce were really capable, Casimiro would not have given the Delahoz group to Allyce.
She would just keep the small share left to her by her father and live with her husband, who was vice-president in this small company, for the rest of her life.
Casimir gave Allyce a cold, stern look.
When he turned his head to look at Senona, his face softened: “Senona, you go with Enzo to the hospital, I’ll take care of this.
Although Senona was sure that Casimiro trusted her, she was not sure how she would handle the situation.
With Enzo’s wound in his mind, he complied with Casimiro’s words.
…
Once Senona escorted Enzo to the ambulance, Allyce and Severo followed Casimiro to the office.
Casimiro looked at Allyce and Severo, who were sitting across the table with no sign of remorse on their faces, and the rage he felt for what had happened earlier burned even hotter.
He reached up and knocked the teacup in front of him to the ground in one fell swoop and growled, “Tell me for yourselves what’s going on!
Allyce didn’t know exactly what Severo had gotten himself into with Enzo and, after half thinking, he had to speak up: “We’ll pay the medical bills”.
“Doesn’t the Aybar family need their medical bills?” Casimiro almost laughed in exasperation.
“What can we do? What are we going to do, file a lawsuit?
Allyce cocked her head to one side, a look of contempt rarely seen on her face.
A “I’m not afraid of anything you want” look.
Casimiro trembled with rage: “You … are going to apologise to the Aybar family, and if they don’t forgive you, you are not going to return to the Delahoz family”.
He made it seem as if he wanted to return to the Delahoz family.
Before Allyce could reply, Severo, who had been silent, was the first to say, “No way”.
“Is it justified for you to hit someone?” Casimiro stood up and banged on the table.
Severo’s face did not change and his expression was serious: “As old Mr Delahoz, who has never done his duty as an old man and still wants to exercise his rights as an old man, you yourself are not a reasonable person, why do you come to criticise others?”
Casimiro thought he had been a sensible man all his life, but his jaw dropped at Severo’s words.
“On this matter, I only admit one thing, I did hit Enzo, as for an apology, that’s not possible, whether it’s a lawsuit or some other solution, whatever you want.”
Severo finished, and led Allyce out the door.
Casimir watched the backs of the two men as they walked in unison towards the door, and became so angry that he could not hold back two words for a long time.
“Bastard!”
They answered with a cold slam of the door.
Casimiro took a breath before going outside.
Once outside, he shouted: “Stop them for me!
Severo and Allyce were not walking fast and the two had just reached the lobby when the servants heard Casimiro’s words and quickly called the bodyguards.
Leaning on Severo, Allyce glanced at Casimiro, who was still running down the stairs, and then turned her head to look at the bodyguards milling around her and Severo.
The image was so familiar.
His heart, cold as ice.
“Is this grandpa’s way of trying to get someone to hit us and get even with Enzo?
“If you really don’t want to apologise, I’ll have to resort to this.” Casimir smiled with a cold smile on his face.
Allyce had always thought that Severo was a deep-hearted person, but only now did she realise that depth of heart made a difference in different people.
The word was like a virtue when put on Severo, and became something ugly when put on Casimiro.
“We …”
Allyce was about to say something out loud when Severo’s grip on her hand tightened slightly, and when she turned her head to look at him, Severo gave her a reassuring look.
“The Delahoz Group has recently had a development project in the west”.
Severo’s cold voice rang through the room, it was not loud, but when he spoke, it felt as if the temperature in the room had dropped a few more degrees, sending a chill down the backs of the audience for no reason.
Casimiro’s face changed at the sound of his voice. The development project in the west, which he had quietly acquired through his contacts, had not yet been made public, but work had already begun.
The project was a secret within the Delahoz group, so how could Severo know about it?
Casimiro spoke cautiously, “What are you going to say?”
“I’ll give you five seconds to think about it, and if I’m not satisfied with the result, that project will end there too.
Severo’s face was calm as he uttered the threatening words, his handsome young face appearing to be in good humour.
Allyce didn’t know what project he was talking about, after all, he had been recovering from his injury and hadn’t been in the office.
However, as he looked at Severo’s stoic appearance, his heart suddenly boiled.
The word “hero” suddenly came to his mind.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Last time, if it hadn’t been for Severo, she would have been sent to Richie, and this time, because Severo was there, she was sure that whatever Casimiro wanted to do wouldn’t work.
“Five, four, three …”
Severo moved his thin lips slightly as he slowly counted the numbers.
Casimiro did not take his threat seriously at all and dismissed Severo’s actions as mere bluster.
“One.
Severo finished counting this last number, looked at Casimiro and, under his mocking gaze, took out his mobile phone and made a call.
“I want this project for the western urbanisation.
That was all he said, and hung up the phone.
“Are you done with the call?” Casimiro watched him hang up and the smirk on his face grew deeper and deeper.
Severo didn’t say anything either, he just held Allyce firmly and calmly.
Casimiro’s heart suddenly skipped a beat when his mobile phone rang.
He looked at Severo and took it without much concern, but when he heard what was being said on the other end of the line, his face suddenly changed and he spoke incredulously, “What did you say?”
