Chapter 319: Don’t push me away
Noon.
Severo and Allyce went out to eat.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
They had just ordered their food and Allyce was talking to the waiter when a sudden “pop” … was heard.
Allyce turned her head and watched Severo’s glass of water fall to the floor.
When Allyce turned her head, she saw that Severo’s glass of water had fallen to the floor. Without waiting for her to say anything, Severo was the first to explain: “I accidentally knocked it over.
The tone of his voice was a little urgent.
Allyce thought nothing of it and called the waiter to clean it up and pour Severo a new glass of water.
Seeing that Allyce didn’t care, a relieved expression appeared in Severo’s eyes.
He looked at his left hand with a dark look.
…
As the two finished their meal and were about to leave the restaurant, a small boy suddenly came out of nowhere.
The little boy looked to be about three years old, a very agile and chubby child.
He ran up to her headless and collided directly with Allyce’s leg.
Allyce had been talking to Severo. Suddenly, the little boy knocked him backwards and took a few steps before he was able to steady himself.
But he did not forget to hold the little one.
“Honey! Don’t run!”
At that moment, a young woman entered from the opposite side.
He looked in Allyce’s direction, his face showing a little anxiety, “Baby, come here!”
At these words, the little boy holding Allyce let out two giggles and ran to the woman, “Mummy!”
His mother rushed to catch him and picked him up, scolding him twice before smiling apologetically to Allyce: “I’m sorry, I didn’t hit you, my son is very naughty!
Allyce shook her head hastily, “No.” She said, “No.” She said, “I don’t think so.
Then, turning his attention to the little boy, he asked: “How old is he?
“Three and a half years old, very naughty, his father and I can’t do anything about it … Walks and talks early, played hide and seek with his father and me when he was one year old, doesn’t mind at all …”
Probably true for all mothers, when it comes to matters related to their children, even strangers can’t help but talk about them more.
Allyce had been listening with a slight smile on her face, but when she heard the word “one year old”, her face suddenly changed.
If her baby had been born without problems, she would have been a year old by now.
The woman noticed that Allyce’s face did not look good, so she stopped and said, “Honey, say goodbye to your aunt and uncle.
“Goodbye, aunt and uncle!” The little boy waved goodbye and his dark eyes wandered, as if he were thinking of something else.
Allyce felt a pain and a swelling in her heart, so she gave a forced smile, said “goodbye” and headed for the exit.
Severo had been standing next to her and had caught her expression, but he didn’t look very good at the moment.
Before leaving, he looked at the little boy again.
…
Allyce left the restaurant, feeling like she had cotton wool in her throat.
She pursed her lips, swallowed several times and looked up at the sky for a while before she felt calmer.
Severo stood a short distance behind her, without getting ahead of her.
He watched Allyce’s slender back, his fists slowly clenched at his side, and then, when he felt her turn around, he took a step forward.
Allyce looked up, her face no different: “I’m going back to work”.
“Hmm.
Severo replied and said: “Go ahead”.
Allyce turned to leave and was called behind her by Severo.
“Allyce!”
“What?”
Allyce turned and was swept into Severo’s arms, her hot, cutting kisses falling immediately after.
Allyce snuggled into his arms and, blushing at the thought of being on the side of the road, reached out to nudge him.
Severo stopped just in time, rested his chin on her slender shoulder and whispered, “Don’t push me.
Whether it was a physical movement or a reaction of the heart, don’t push him.
Startled by the vulnerability in Severo’s voice, Allyce didn’t dare push him any further and asked aloud: “What’s wrong?
Instead, Severo pushed her away at that moment, a slight smile breaking out on his face: “Go back to work, I’ll pick you up later”.
As he spoke, he ran his hand through her hair, which had just fallen out of place, with incredibly gentle movements.
“I’ll go then, you don’t need to pick me up tonight, I’ve come by car and I can go back.”
This time, Severo did not call her back.
Allyce stepped back a little, looked again and found Severo still standing in the same place.
He still caught a glimpse of it on the other side of the flowing road.
Behind him were tall buildings and trees, people came and went, and he stood there motionless, clearly a man with a strong spirit and a powerful presence, but somehow she felt a great loss and boundless disappointment emanating from him.
What exactly was wrong?
…
Severo turned to Kimdis.
“Boss, this is …”
Xabat was ready to give him a report on how Kimdis was doing this month, but his mind was completely elsewhere.
I really wanted to spend every moment with Allyce.
However, the guilt he felt in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
He didn’t even dare to ask her what she was feeling at that moment.
How on earth had he spent the last two years, out of sight.
He didn’t even dare to think about it, just the thought of it made his heart ache to the point of cracking.
The love of his life, so dear to him that he would be jealous of anyone else who looked at her more than once. But he didn’t take good care of her and protect her …
“Severo!”
At that moment, Neto suddenly burst in from outside.
Neto walked straight up to Severo and pushed Xabat aside, questioning him loudly: “Did you have Neto sent to your grandfather?
Severo just glanced at him and said nothing.
Neto saw that I hadn’t said anything and became anxious, “Explain yourself! She would do that to your grandfather because she cares about you. Teach her a lesson yourself, it’s not like you don’t know how cruel your grandfather is!”.
At these words, Severo reacted a little.
He looked at Neto and spoke expressionlessly: “I’d only be more ruthless than grandfather, I’d like to kill her, but that would be too cheap”.
Neto was silent as he saw the murderous intent in Severo’s eyes.
Severo spoke in a low voice: “For me?
He scoffed, with an unusually grim look on his face: “She killed my son, for me too?
“What …?” Neto for a moment, didn’t understand what Severo meant.
He just thought that Izar had wanted Severo to see his grandfather again at the time, and that although he had done wrong, it was not unforgivable.
