Chapter 311: The LK Group Chairman’s wife
Immediately following this report was a report analysing Moon Culture Media, written by a senior industry journalist.
Allyce finished reading it with a calm face, and when she looked up and saw Severo staring at her, she couldn’t help but smile, “What are you doing so serious?”
“I’ll take care of this.” Severo didn’t say much, but said this silently and got up to clear the dishes from the table.
Seeing this, Allyce helped him to tidy up.
The two finished tidying up the kitchen in silence, and Allyce untied her apron and prepared to leave, when Severo blocked her way.
Severo was much taller than her and stood in front of her with a sense of oppression.
“You’re not angry?” asked Severo.
Allyce smiled: “Why get angry, what was on the news was false.
Severo’s gaze was fixed on her, as if he wanted to see through her whole being.
After a long while, he just said: “Trust me, OK?
“Yes.” Allyce nodded.
They did not go out that day, nor did they see anyone, except for Xabat, who passed by once.
…
The following day.
Allyce woke up and went to check the news on the internet.
Indeed, the morning headlines read “LK Group CEO to hold press conference at Kimdis today”.
The number of reports and articles about the trio’s relationship had increased overnight, with all sorts of malicious speculation.
Allyce was not interested.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Severo grabbed her from behind and held the phone out to her.
He squinted for a moment before burying his head in the crook of Allyce’s shoulder: “Lately they’ve been so permissive in my absence that they can’t even give a clear message, when it’s obvious that the president and the president’s wife are invited to a press conference together.
His voice was languid and unusual, with the slight muffled sound of a man who has just woken up.
Allyce hung up the phone and elbowed him in the head: “Get up and don’t talk rubbish in the morning”.
“Hold on a little longer.” Severo didn’t move, and only after a moment did he say: “I’m not talking nonsense, let’s go to the press conference together later.
Seeing that he didn’t move, Allyce had to give up moving his hands.
“You go, I have to go and take care of the media part of the lunar culture”.
However, Allyce was brought to the press conference by Severo.
…
When the two arrived, the room was already full.
The story had been brewing for three or four days, and today at last someone involved had come out to invite a press conference, and all the media were trying to grab a handful of headlines.
“The president of the LK Group is here! And Allyce!
The journalist who saw them first was already running here.
Severo led Allyce towards him, the bodyguards behind him stopped the journalists who were about to enter.
Allyce couldn’t help but turn her attention back to Severo.
He had looked at Severo many times during the morning.
Because Severo was wearing a red shirt today.
And she was wearing a red dress, and the two of them walked together as if they were wearing couple’s clothes.
In the eyes of others, there was definitely some arrogance in the “dog couple”.
…
As Allyce and Severo sat down, Xabat said into the microphone: “Silence, please!
Probably because he was concerned about the enormous influence of the LK Group in the business world, Xabat’s words fell and the whole room fell silent immediately.
“Thank you all for coming to the press conference, today, the president of the LK Group, the person in question, will give a detailed explanation of the series of related news that has been reported recently.”
Xabat finished and turned his head to look at Severo.
Severo scanned the room with a stoic expression and took out a red book and placed it in front of the audience.
He then turned his head towards Allyce with a smile, held out his hand and turning his head towards the audience said, “As you can see, I am legally married to this young lady Delahoz who is standing next to me, we have been married for almost three years.”
With those words, the whole room of journalists was astonished!
“What’s going on here?”
“I thought it was Allyce who stepped in as the third person?”
A small murmur sounded from the background, which grew louder afterwards.
Severo’s face turned ugly and Allyce returned his hand, fearing his anger.
A bold reporter asked, “If Mr. Betances and Ms. Delahoz have been married for almost three years, why did he get engaged to movie star Ms. Izar halfway through?”
Although they did not believe Severo, the marriage certificate could not be a forgery.
They were live, with a national audience watching, and given Severo’s status, there was no need for him to lie.
Allyce turned her head towards Severo.
It was something I had almost forgotten.
Severo’s eyes deepened and he said slowly: “It’s normal for couples to argue a little. At that time it was me who did something wrong that made my wife sad and I wanted to use the engagement with another woman to encourage her to come home. That’s why I asked my good friend Izar to do me this favour. Afterwards, I also felt bad about it, so privately I had already broken off the engagement with her a long time ago”.
Although this sounded like a lot of little problems, it was impossible for the crowd to refute.
It was normal for couples to argue and fight. Izar and Severo had been married for many years.
Izar and Severo had already been together in the programme and had been good friends for years, something that everyone knew.
And the marriage certificate is real.
Severo was pleased with the public’s reaction.
He then spoke earnestly: “I would like to apologise to my wife and ask her to forgive me. I would also like to apologise to my good friend Izar for causing him unnecessary trouble due to my negligence. In addition, I thank him for his help.
On the other hand, Izar, who was sitting in her car and rushing towards Kimdis, was watching the live broadcast on her phone.
When he heard Severo’s words, he was so angry that he almost threw the phone away.
Thank you?
Izar, of course, had heard the meaning of his words.
Severo had decided to hold a press conference because the story was known to many people.
Now I could present Allyce to the public with a straight face, and from now on, Allyce would be the wife of the CEO of the LK Group!
How could he swallow that?
Izar’s eyes filled with hatred and he grabbed his phone with resentment.
After a few moments, he calmed down a bit and picked up his mobile phone and made a transatlantic call.
When the call was answered, he said urgently, “Is grandfather there? I have something important to ask him.
Do you think he will admit defeat? No way!
It can’t end like this!
