Flash Marriage Makes A Perfect Match

Chapter 271: Incompetent Desiderius



Desiderius watched the blood begin to ooze from her lips and from her hand where she had bitten them together, and he reached out fiercely to pull her away, his voice stern: “I know you’re upset and that you blame yourself, but the most important thing right now is to take care of your health.”

I was more than upset, almost overwhelmed by it.

Allyce pulled her hand away and burst into tears, tears that would not stop falling.

It wasn’t until she was too tired to cry any more that she stopped her tears.

Only the look was very dull.

When Desiderio saw that she had finally stopped crying, he called the doctor to come and examine her again.

The doctor gave her a few more instructions, just so she would be relaxed and not get too upset.

Desiderio reiterated: “You heard what the doctor said, your body is the most important thing.

Allyce looked at him with dull eyes: “Can I use your phone?

Desiderio looked at her with an astonished face as he pulled out a mobile phone and handed it to Allyce.

“Thank you.” Allyce whispered her thanks and picked up the phone.

Although he accepts that Desiderio is his uncle, in the end the two remain strangers.

Desiderio didn’t mind, he stood up slowly, his gaze swept over her pale face, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly. “I’ll have someone bring something to eat.”

He finished his sentence and went out.

Allyce held her mobile phone for a moment before pressing the all-too-familiar number, but hesitated to pull it out.

What would he say after calling Severo?

She didn’t wait for Xabat to pick her up, she waited for a group of men hired by Senona to harass her, and then she was forced to jump out of a window, basically unharmed, but the baby left ….

Was I going to tell him about this?

In the villa, Severo’s suspicions, and all his actions, crossed his mind like a walking light.

He remembered how much Severo had wanted the baby before.

Allyce’s mind was a whirlwind and her fingers, gripping the phone tightly, had turned white before she finally pulled the phone out.

On the other side of the door, Desiderio stood in front of the room and saw through the door that Allyce had not taken out the phone, looking as calm as if he had expected it.

The man behind him spoke cautiously: “Mr. Alvidrez, how do you know that Miss Delahoz is not going to take out the phone?

Just when his men thought Desiderio would not speak, he took the floor: “She is a good-natured person, but she is too young to encounter this kind of thing, she will be under a lot of psychological pressure, and if there is no one to comfort her, she will not be able to get out of the shadow … “.

In his heart, he fears that the person he feels most sorry for is Severo.

The subordinate was a little surprised that Desiderio spoke up to explain himself, and nodded in agreement, although he did not fully understand.

Late at night.

The hospital’s consulting room was lit up.

“I think this situation is too complicated, let’s go with the second option”.

“I disagree …”

Severo, dressed in a black suit, stands out among a group of medical professionals in white trousers, who are in a frantic discussion.

He had a cigarette between his fingers, the ashtray in front of him already full of butts, one elbow resting on the table, half leaning forward slightly, his posture a little stiff, obviously having been sitting in this position for a long time.

His face was cold and stern as he sat there, wondering what he was thinking, forgetting even the cigarette in his hand.

After a long while, Severo put the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray and spoke in a muted voice: “Is the discussion over?

His voice was not too loud, but loud enough to drown out the panel discussion.

One of the medical experts said: “Mr Betances, I think the second option …”.

Severo just looked at him coldly: “I just need to listen to the discussion, okay? I need a surgical option that doesn’t fail”.

He emphasised the word “not to fail”.

At these words, there was silence in the consulting room, because no one could guarantee that the operation would be error-free.

There are always failures in any surgery.

When Severo finished, he got up and went to the bathroom.

He washed his face with cold water and looked at his haggard face in the mirror, when suddenly he slammed his fist against the mirror.

The mirror cracked into a web of cracks.

Blood slowly seeped from his hand.

“Severo!”

Neto’s voice rang out from outside.

Neto rushed in and was surprised to see Severo in this state, striding towards him: “What are you doing?

He had returned to the Pastrano’s house after the company holiday and had arrived in the evening when he heard Xabat talking about what was going on here.

Severo withdrew his hand, turned on the tap and put his still bleeding hand underneath to rinse it, while asking aloud, “What are you doing here?”

Neto replied, without smiling: “If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have seen that you were hurt!

“I’m fine, you go back. Severo turned off the tap and looked at Neto: “I thought it was New Year.

Neto heard him say that and cursed: “Stop that! Your grandfather is still in the ICU waiting for emergency care, Allyce doesn’t know if he’s alive or dead, and you’re looking bad!”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Without saying a word to him, Severo walked past him and went straight back to the consulting room.

The team of specialists saw Severo back and told him that surgical options had been discussed.

The wrinkle in Severo’s brow lightened a little and there was a note of weariness in his voice: “Please, boys”.

The specialists were surprised by Severo’s tone with a tinge of pleading; after all, Severo was always serious.

Tajo entered the operating theatre.

Severo stood guard outside, fumbling for a cigarette and lighting it again.

Saul frowned as he looked at him, “Sir, smoke less”.

Severo continued smoking as if he hadn’t heard him, and Neto came up behind him.

I hadn’t seen Severo so embarrassed and haggard for the first time in over ten years.

“I thought I could handle everything, but that proved to be too selfish.” Severo’s voice was soft and husky. “If I hadn’t left her alone, I wouldn’t have let anyone take advantage of her, and if I’d been more patient with grandfather, she wouldn’t be in such poor health and I wouldn’t have noticed ….”

Severo continued to talk about the two Tajo and Allyce, there was no emotion in his tone but Neto still felt his remorse.

“You are a human, not a god, not …”.

Neto tried to advise him, but he interrupted the call, “Everyone says I’m a myth in the financial world, but in reality I’m just an incompetent loser, grandpa is lying in there and I can’t do anything, it’s been a whole day and I haven’t even found her …”.
