Chapter 662: Staying in place for now
The two men’s eyes met in the air and it was Tajo who finally withdrew his gaze first.
He cocked his head, with a hint of defensiveness in his tone: “It was an accident”.
“Whether it was an accident or not, you know best in your heart.” Severo would say no more as he lowered his head and continued to read the papers in his hand that he had not finished reading earlier.
By his actions, he indicated that he did not want to talk any more, giving a silent order of expulsion.
Tajo’s sharp gaze, which was still fixed on him, did not know what had occurred to him, his gaze changed abruptly and his face followed suit.
“Whatever you guess and whatever you know, the only thing you have to remember is that you are part of the Solares family, you are the grandson of my Tajo, and we have an unbreakable blood bond.”
Finally, Tajo came out with these words and left.
When Tajo said this, Severo was signing the document, and his hand unconsciously increased the force, so much so that the tip of his pen cut the paper.
Bang!
Tajo went out and the door closed.
Severo’s face was as heavy as water, and he slapped the pen he clutched tightly in his hand, as if he still felt angry. He tensed his face and pursed his lips, standing up and kicking the chair out of the room before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath to calm himself.
He had to admit that he himself had still been too complacent and too arrogant.
When he arrived in J, he had predetermined all possible scenarios, what could happen.
But today, everything exceeds their expectations.
He had done a lot of calculations, but he was still missing something.
Over the years, he and Tagus have fought again and again, Tagus has taken shape in his mind, and he has not suspected that Tagus could be anything else.
And one by one, he was forced to take a fresh look at Tajo as a person.
To be a native of Z, the son-in-law of the Solares family, to defeat so many legitimate heirs of the Solares family, to eventually rise to the top of the Solares family hierarchy and become the head of the leading aristocratic family of J, is in itself a highly legendary event.
Moreover, he is an “outsider” who has managed to maintain the order of the Solares family for so many years without being overthrown.
How could a man in such a high position of power let a woman who wanted to harm his life fall?
If before, Severo’s heart had only doubts.
He was now absolutely certain that Izar had been released by Tajo.
Izar, for his part, has defected to Grizzi.
So …
The result of this speculation caused Severo, who had always been a firm and self-possessed man, to become a little unsettled and to quietly transfer his assets and send Allyce.
This way, at least Allyce will be a little safer.
He, on the other hand, was to stay in Z and stabilise things.
Tajo will have guessed by now that he knows something.
But conceit is a common problem for those in power, and even if he has suspicions in his mind, it will only hold for the time being.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
“Boss?”
Dita’s voice came from outside the door.
Then Severo withdrew his thoughts, stood up and tugged at his tie, pulled back the chair he had thrown out and sat down before saying outside: “Come in.
He was worried that something might happen if Tajo and Severo didn’t talk properly. As soon as Tajo left, he prepared to go inside to check the situation.
Dita was slightly relieved to see that everything was normal inside the office when she entered.
When he entered, Severo did not even look up, but merely commanded in a soft voice: “Come out if you are well, and take care of Xabat. ”
The implication of Severo’s words was that she did not need to worry much about anything.
Dita would understand: “Yes, I know”.
He went straight to the hospital.
Xabat had severe after-effects of dizziness and is still in hospital with fluids.
When Dita went there, she saw Xabat looking at something with his phone in one hand.
“What are you looking at?” Dita came closer and started to look at her phone screen as well.
Xabat raised his eyelids: “Watching the presidential elections”.
As a native citizen of J, I certainly had to be attentive to such developments.
When he finished, he asked Dita as a quip: “What are you doing here? I don’t need you here, go back to the office”.
The company has been very busy lately and there was no need for Dita to come to him.
“The boss told me to come”. Dita gave him an expressionless look and approached him: “Why the hell did you bring your wife back all of a sudden? Did the boss warn you about something?
Xabat was about to say something when he remembered that Severo had ordered him not to tell anyone, not even Allyce, let alone Dita, about the transfer of assets for a short period of time.
As Severo did not tell Dita, that is, even Dita could not know.
“The boss will naturally say something when the time comes, and naturally I can’t say anything now because it’s not the right time. Xabat sighed and tossed his phone aside, his mood to review the news gone.
Dita sighed next to her: “Tajo went to see his boss in the office a while ago, he probably had a bad talk and his boss was in a bad mood”.
Xabat then remembered with a jolt that he had not given Severo what Allyce had asked him to bring.
He went to the office after a few bottles of water in a row at the hospital and was feeling better.
Alonzo’s painting and the photograph given by Allyce were presented to Severo.
When it was time to give the photo, Xabat hesitated but said stiffly: “The lady also asked me to give her a message …”.
“Oh?” Severo looked at the picture of Allyce and Alonzo together, how cute his own wife and son looked.
He stroked the photo and looked at Nan He at her words: “What message did he ask you to bring?
“The lady said …” Xabat coughed a little uncomfortably and dryly before saying, “This photo for you to take with you, if … you dare to go out and flirt, you’re dead … ahem.”
When Xabat finished, he stood with a rigid face.
The boss won’t hit him, will he?
There was silence in the office for a few seconds before Severo’s voice could be heard: “That’s all?
Xabat looked at Severo and saw that his face had not changed, and could even see a hint of interest in him.
Xabat thought about it and told Severo what Allyce had told him before he left.
“Alonzo’s third birthday is coming up and the lady says she’s going to have a big dinner then and she needs the old man to host it again to make it happen.”
He was very conscious of having dropped the word “you”. It was true that his wife treated them like family, but he knew that his boss was not a generous person.
After all, it is the wife who carries the message, so you can’t mention anyone else.
