Chapter 59: Spouse’s column, says my name
Senona’s eyes blinked calculatingly, and when she looked up again, her face was still.
He asked Casimiro: “Grandfather, why do you think the president of L. K. appointed Allyce to negotiate the contract with him?
“As long as we manage to negotiate the contract, nothing else matters”.
Casimiro clearly didn’t care about any of this.
Reluctantly, Senona continued: “Grandfather, as long as this contract is not signed, it means that there are variables.
“What does that mean?” It was then that Casimiro turned his head towards Senona.
“I see that the president of L. K. has something more than simple in mind for Allyce”.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
There were a few words, to the point, that everyone could understand.
Senona watched Casimiro’s expression and said sheepishly, “If the president of L. K is really interested in Allyce, why don’t we play along and negotiate the contract quickly?”
Casimiro leaned back with a serious look on his face, his eyes narrowed as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this plan.
Senona had an imperative smile in her eyes.
Obviously, Grandpa had been convinced by her, and with a little more fanning of the flames and a little more energy, he might agree.
“Grandpa, the last time I went to a party, there were a lot of other companies looking at the L. K. Group ….”
Casimiro raised his hand to tell him to stop talking and nodded imperceptibly: “This matter, leave it in your hands.
“Good”.
Senona ducked her head, a cold smile in her eyes.
…
Allyce and Lucila returned to Delahoz’s group before remembering that she had not brought her bag with her.
House keys, wallet were in the bag.
The thought of what Severo had done in the office slowly faded his desire to go to L. K. to get his bag.
He feared he would not be able to resist taking the helicopter to him.
After staying up until the end of the day, Allyce made the difficult decision: the big deal was to change the door again.
That’s why, as soon as Allyce left the office building, she saw Xabat.
As soon as Xabat saw Allyce, he smiled at her: “Mrs. …”.
“Shut up!” Allyce came over and gave him a cold stare, pulling him towards an unoccupied spot, “What’s going on?”
“The boss told me to bring the lady’s bag.” With that, he went to his car and pulled out a bag.
It was indeed Allyce’s.
“Thank you.
Allyce took the bag, thanked him coldly, turned and left.
Xabat followed her, Xabat, who is 1. 65 metres tall, had to take small steps behind her in order to control her speed.
“Shall I take you home, madam?”
“What did I say last time, don’t you remember? You think I’m going to put your phone number and your picture on the wall of the public toilet with the words ‘Marriage Wanted’ written on it?”
Xabat immediately stopped in his tracks and his face became more than straight: “Miss Delahoz, have a nice day.
Allyce grunted, got into the car and drove home.
…
As soon as he entered, he realised that something was wrong.
Someone else had been in the room.
Allyce’s face tightened and she gingerly removed her own heels before taking one in her hand.
He covered the door, without closing it properly.
Gradually, he went in against the wall.
When he reached the foot turn, he looked around and saw that no one was there.
Was I thinking too much?
No, there was the bathroom.
He simply went to the kitchen, grabbed a kitchen knife and headed for the bathroom.
Just as he reached the bathroom door, it opened from the inside.
Seeing the man standing inside the bathroom, Allyce had no intention of leaving the kitchen knife in his hand.
“How did you get in here?”
Severo looked down at the gleaming kitchen knife in his hand and leaned against the doorframe with his arms around it, no emotion in his voice: “He opened the door.”
“You matched my key!” He should have come back on the way back to have the door replaced.
Severo looked at her: “A key to the house, of course you need it, how else would you get home?
“Mr. Betances, I’m afraid you’re wrong, this is my house, not yours.
Allyce gave him a cold look and turned to leave the kitchen knife in the kitchen.
Severo followed with little concern: “Mrs. Betances, you have to be clear, your spouse’s name is listed as mine in your account book.
As soon as she approached, Allyce caught the familiar scent of her shower gel, which she had bought when she had gone shopping with Lucila the previous weekend.
The man’s shamelessness knew no bounds.
Allyce met his gaze, refusing to back down in the slightest, “What do you think will happen when I sue you for cheating on my wife?”
It was an evenly matched battle of wits.
Allyce had thought that meeting Severo was a surprise, but it was all a lie.
From the beginning, the whole thing was a deliberate cover-up.
The expression on Severo’s face finally changed for a moment, gradually becoming grave.
After a long silence, he spoke slowly: “All right, I promise”.
Allyce thought it would be a long and protracted battle, but she didn’t expect Severo to accept so easily.
He took half a step back and leaned on the table behind him: “Tomorrow, then”.
Severo’s face returned to its usual stoic look: “It depends on my schedule.
…
A pot of soup was simmering on the cooker and there were a few dishes on the table, all Allyce’s favourites.
She was stunned for half a second, picked up the dishes from the table and threw them straight into the trash, including the pot of soup on the cooker, and flushed them straight down the drain.
Severo had done all this.
She had never been able to understand what he was thinking.
After discovering who he was, without explaining anything, he was able to continue acting as if nothing had happened.
In his life, one was one and two was two, and there was a definite reason for everything.
The two divorce and then terminate the contract, and are no longer together.
…
During the following days, he did not go to L. K to talk to Severo about the contract.
Every day he would find something to do at the office, come home after work, order take-out, eat and then watch some TV before going to bed.
It was exactly the same life I had imagined before returning home.
Recovering his father’s shares, gaining a foothold in the Delahoz group, and then discovering the prison where his father was and where he wanted to go to see him.
Gradually he spent more and more days at the company, not talking much to anyone except Lucila, but doing things seriously and modestly.
Gradually people in the company changed their opinion of her a little.
“The L. K. people have informed us that they are going to talk about the contract this afternoon, they will bring all the information and it seems they want to negotiate everything at once.
Lucila finished answering the phone and approached Allyce, telling her what they had just said on the phone.
“Well, then get ready.” Allyce’s attention was focused on her computer, tapping away at the keyboard as she spoke, not even looking at Lucila.
“I said …” Lucila naturally sensed something was wrong with Allyce, but didn’t know where to start, grabbing her glass of water, “I’m going to get you some water and come back.” ”
With that, he took Allyce’s cup and went to the pantry.
Placing the glass under the water dispenser to collect the water, she pulled out her phone to read a text message in the slot when a female colleague entered.
The companion put her own cup on the other side and while Lucila’s attention was on her phone, she put a clear pill in Allyce’s cup, the pill melted in the water and there was no trace of it as soon as it fell.
