Chapter 256 : Do you still have the nerve to call me that?
He did not like the fact that he had to eat Western food three times a day.
Izar living at home was also something he did not like.
But all this I could not tell Severo.
I felt that now I had changed a lot.
He was not like this before and now, he worries that if he says this, he will make it difficult for Severo and that he is not asking for too much.
And Izar, Tagus …
All this together weighed on her a little and made her a little less herself.
“If you don’t want to, why are you saying these things to me?
Severo gave Allyce a cold look, though in normal times he would give her a cold stare whenever she got angry, but none of it was as scary as this.
Allyce shuddered and turned her eyes away from Severo.
But Severo had no intention of letting her off the hook, he had got the conversation going and he wouldn’t let her off the hook if he couldn’t get the word out.
“I just …” Allyce stammered, intimidated by his serious look.
“Only what?”
Severo’s eyes became dangerous as he narrowed them.
He continued: “I am so incompetent that I can’t handle the regulation of this kind of thing, and I need to make my wife submit so that there is peace in the world!
Severo’s tone was too harsh, but his words took Allyce by surprise.
He could almost see the smoke coming out of the top of Severo’s head, and somehow he thought Severo was pretty cute.
He picked up his chopsticks and poked the rice into his bowl and said, “I never thought of it like that …”.
How could he think Severo was incompetent? …
In his mind, Severo was almost an omnipotent being.
“If you didn’t think of it that way, why did you say ‘to come back’?” Severo’s tone seemed anxious.
Such a Severo made Allyce feel a little confused.
“I …”
She had wanted to get to know Severo a little better, but when his relatives arrived, she realised that he really was a very selfish person.
Even after learning that she had gone with Itzal to meet Tajo, she was even more surprised that Severo had left her behind to meet Tajo.
He had never been indifferent to Izar, while his concern for Tajo, on the other hand, disturbed Allyce.
The human desire to be exclusive was a terrible thing, even if the other person was only their relative.
Knowing how much Severo cared for Tajo, he didn’t want to put him in the middle and tried to calm himself.
He didn’t know if it was because he didn’t hide it well enough or because Severo was too clever and easily discovered his lie.
Severo’s heart softened at the sight of her pitiful face on the verge of tears, but his tone was still a little fierce: “Don’t do that again or I won’t let you go!”
Uh …
Allyce looked at him in surprise.
Severo continued to eat without even looking up and said slowly: “Look again and I won’t let you go now”.
She is not a child, and he threatens her like this!
Children!
But Allyce, who is not a child, continued eating and stopped looking at him after Severo’s words.
…
After being viciously threatened by Severo, Allyce’s mood suddenly brightened.
However, the glow did not last for a few days before what was to come.
Severo had to go to the office early in the morning for an important meeting, so he left Allyce home alone.
Before leaving the house, he told her again and again to stay still.
“Don’t go away and call me if you have to go out for something non-urgent”.
Allyce’s surface was like this: embarrassed.
But he still responded weakly: “Oh”.
She always felt that Severo was now completely treating her like a child.
In her mind, however, she was obedient and did not go out.
It didn’t take long for the doorbell to ring.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Was Severo back so soon?
He had a key and didn’t know how to open the door himself, he had to ring the bell!
This cunning man must have wanted to check if I was at home.
Allyce had to go and open the door.
“Severo, I said you’re not …”
The last word stuck in his throat after he saw the person standing in front of the door and he could not say it again.
His eyes flicked to Tajo, and to Izar beside him, and with a slight nod he said, “Old Mr. Betances .”
“Humph!”
Tajo gave her a cold look and went inside.
Disdain shone in Izar’s eyes as he followed Tajo with a meek and docile gaze.
The bodyguard stood outside the door and waited until Tajo and Izar had entered before the bodyguard outside closed the door behind him.
With two more people in the room, the cramped space seemed unpopulated.
The clothes Tajo and Izar were wearing were more expensive than those on the floor, so they seemed out of place here.
As soon as he entered, Tajo looked around, frowning in silent disgust.
Izar’s gaze was the same as his own.
Allyce kept silent and went to pour two glasses of water.
“Old Mr. Betances, drink the water”.
Allyce placed the water first in front of Tajo and then placed the other glass in front of Izar.
Izar picked up the glass of water and took a sip, keeping a smile on his face.
Allyce’s heart clenched, Izar had that look …
Tajo picked up the glass of water, but instead of drinking it, he moved it to the side and then set it down with a thud, hitting the coffee table and smashing the glass into pieces.
This was followed by a roar from Tajo: “Do you have the nerve to call me that?
Allyce, though prepared, had not expected this move from Tajo, and she looked at the broken glass and unconsciously pressed her palms together.
That’s why I had never called Tajo “grandfather”.
To call an old man who did not expect her to be his granddaughter-in-law “grandfather” was an insult to herself.
Tajo didn’t like hearing it, and she didn’t like calling him “grandfather”.
“If you’re looking for Severo, he’s gone to a meeting at the office. Allyce looked slightly up at Tajo and overlooked his earlier question.
He pretends not to have heard it.
Tajo’s breathing was a little heavy, obviously holding back his anger, “I’m here to see you today”.
“I don’t know what you wanted to see me about?”
Allyce’s face was calm, of course she knew Tajo was here to see her, the reason she asked that question was just to get Tajo straight to the point.
Tajo sneered and threw a pile of stuff on the coffee table in front of him, Allyce only glanced at it before his face changed.
