Chapter 227: Who the hell are you?
“Useless thing!”
Casimiro cursed at the other end of the phone before hanging up.
He pressed the phone to his heart’s content and looked at Severo with scrutiny in his eyes: “You did this? Who the hell are you?
After Casimiro’s aggressive question, a sudden wave of fear came over him.
If Severo had really succeeded in wrecking the promotion he had achieved with a simple phone call, this man was too scary.
Severo didn’t even look at him, just reached up to glance at his watch, his brow furrowed slightly as he said to himself, “It’s past the perfect time for breakfast.
He completely ignored Casimiro’s words and stroked Allyce’s head: “Come on, let’s go home and make you breakfast.
With that, he pulled a stunned Allyce outside.
The bodyguards and servants surrounding them spontaneously and consciously made way for them.
“Dad …”
Eric, who had been watching all this, rushed to help Casimiro, who was still surprised.
Seeing that Casimiro was ignoring him, he asked him: “Dad, are you OK?
Casimiro pulled his hand away and went to sit on the sofa, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
The subordinate on the other end of the phone said that the one who had made the connection earlier had suddenly called to say that the development could not be done.
The subordinate said that someone more senior than the person who had made the contact had intervened.
If it is true that Severo is the one who called and threw him to the ground, then …
…
The two of them got back into the car, Allyce hugged herself, arching her head to look out the window and then back at Severo.
Severo started the car as he spoke: “If you want to look, just look”.
“I … look at the view.” Allyce returned his gaze with a straight face.
Severo tugged at the corners of his lips and pointed his free hand to his cheek. “Here is your chance to express your admiration.
Eh?
Allyce was stunned, Severo really looked like a drunken Severo at that moment.
Extraordinarily … realistic.
“Who wants to kiss you, really …”
Allyce turned her head to look out of the window as she spoke, then quickly turned again and tilted her head towards Severo’s face and was about to kiss him when he suddenly turned away and the kiss that should have landed on her face landed on Severo’s lips.
Oh.
Allyce blinked and ran away.
Severo gave him a meaningful look and said nothing.
Allyce felt the look was worse than her words.
After a moment of embarrassment, he took the floor and asked: “What has Enzo done to piss you off, has he beaten someone to death …”.
After asking, Allyce was even more puzzled, it couldn’t be because of her ….
“How do you know it was him who screwed me over? What if it was me who tried to beat him up?” It wasn’t like I hadn’t done this before.
Of course, his little wife wouldn’t know.
Allyce murmured, “You are the reasonable one”.
“Reasonable?” Severo repeated the two words and suddenly laughed.
Did he not know that having power and authority was a kind of reasoning?
“What are you laughing at, you’ve been asked!” Allyce glared at him.
Severo stopped laughing, his face returned to its usual calm, and he said after some thought, “He was the one who messed with me first, he couldn’t help it”.
“What has he done to piss you off?” Allyce became increasingly curious.
Severo started to play dumb, no matter how much she asked, he didn’t speak.

Enzo was not very well, he had a haemorrhage in the thoracic cavity and a broken rib.
The hospital Enzo went to turned out to be run by Gabrio Ortis.
It was also Gabrio who took the initiative to call and ask Allyce about Enzo’s condition, and this is what he was told.
“Looks like it’s pretty serious …” muttered Allyce.
The Gabrio on the other end of the phone smiled slightly at her words, “It’s only a minor injury if we’re going to make an identification, it just sounds a bit serious.”
“Well, I see, thank you.
Allyce thanked him and took the phone to the studio to look for Severo.
The two had not spoken about Enzo since they returned yesterday and no news had come from there.
Allyce intended to go and see Enzo today.
In any case, it was wrong for Severo to hit someone.
I was a bit distracted thinking about how I was going to convince Severo to go and see Enzo.
“Busy?” Allyce knocked on the door before pushing it open and entering.
Severo saw her enter and closed the laptop in front of him. “What can I do for you?
He got up and sat down on a sofa, poured two glasses of water and motioned for Allyce to sit down.
Allyce sat obediently.
With the glass of water in his hand, he took a sip, but still didn’t know how to speak.
Severo saw that he looked like he had something to say but was afraid to speak, and he raised an eyebrow: “Who told me before that we need to communicate more?
“Uh …” Allyce choked up, said the words, but sometimes it feels really, well, impossible to speak!
When Severo saw that she still had nothing to say, he spoke quietly: “How is the injury to your back? I’ll take you to the hospital today for a check-up.
“I don’t feel anything, it’s almost healed. …” Allyce shook her head.
“If I say you need it, you need it”.
Severo said, then got up and brought the jacket hanging on the boss’s chair, dragged Allyce and walked out.
…
It was only when they arrived at the hospital that Allyce realised what was happening afterwards.
“First, we will go for a review”.
Severo led her gently into Gabrio’s office.
Allyce: “…”
“Mr. Betances?” a flash of surprise crossed Gabrio’s face and with a slight tilt of his head he saw Allyce, who was being dragged along by him, and called out to her, “Allyce.”
“Gabrio,” Allyce said with a slightly awkward gesture.
“Sit down first.
Gabrio sat them both down and poured them water.
Severus, who had a stern face since he entered, took the water Gabrio handed him: “Find the best surgeon you have here”.
“Please …” Allyce smiled at Gabrio with some embarrassment.
Gabrio frowned slightly at this, “Wounded?”
He was the vice-president and apart from the big people who sometimes came and had to be introduced for surgeries and various meetings, his father seemed to want to leave the hospital to him and wanted to get it out of the way, so he was more than busy at the moment and had only sent a few messages to Allyce after hearing about what had happened earlier.
Allyce was quick to say: “It’s OK, it’s OK now.
Gabrio asked no further questions and sought out a female doctor to check Allyce’s condition.
Allyce left with the doctor, leaving Gabrio and Severo alone in the office.
Gabrio handed Severo a cigarette, which he took without lighting it.
