Chapter 697: I’d like to be decent
Even when Allyce said nothing more, Marco understood the meaning of her words, just as he thought he did.
He was very surprised.
Having spent so many years in the army, he is capable and has a natural judgement, with more than usual self-confidence.
So the fact that he hadn’t even thought about having a mole on his side was like admitting that he had looked away and seen the wrong person.
Very often, men value self-esteem and face above all else.
Allyce understood this too, which is why she did not point it out.
Marco looked at Allyce, who was eating slowly and deliberately, and his expression changed several times before he finally said, with some embarrassment, “I’m sorry, but I’m not going to eat.
Allyce didn’t look up: “Goodbye, take care”.
Marco paused and got up to ask the waiter for the bill.
The waiter looked at Allyce in silence before saying to Marco: “This … Mrs Betances is charged directly to your membership card every time you come”.
“…”
Marco feels that Allyce is a woman who was probably born to be his nemesis.
He simply had no more guts when it came to her.
He was a bit depressed, but he couldn’t take it out on Allyce.
In the end, he could only leave with a grimace on his face.
When Marco left, Allyce worked up an appetite and ate everything she had ordered before returning to work in a good mood.
As soon as he entered the office, he saw Dita standing motionless in the middle of the office, not knowing what she was doing.
“What …” Allyce walked in and closed the door with the back of her hand and saw Severo sitting behind his desk, it took her half a moment to say the last word, “Upstairs?”
Severo wore a black suit and a plain black shirt with two buttons undone at the collar, revealing a… His face was unusually white, but his eyes were as dark and unpredictable as ever.
He sat in his boss’s chair, with the same demeanour as when he worked in the office, and absently asked Allyce: “Did you enjoy lunch?
Allyce froze and nodded, “All right”.
In fact, his mind was still spinning.
How did Severo get here, and in broad daylight?
I don’t know at what point her two words struck a chord with Severo, but his face sank, his gaze turned cold and the words came out of his mouth to Dita: “An iced coffee”.
Allyce reacted at that moment and immediately said to his words: “Don’t give him an iced coffee, give him a glass of plain water.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Dita also looks at Severo, then at Allyce, and finally silently brings a glass of plain water and slips away for a second before Severo gets angry.
Finally, we meet the living chief, but the aura, the temperament, has not changed at all.
Severo looked at the steaming glass of plain water in his hand, pursed his lips and said with a raised eyebrow, “Good, now everyone in the company listens to you”.
Allyce looked at him, walked around the desk and approached him, resting one hand on the desk and the other on the back of the chair, in a position that made it look like she was holding Severo in her arms.
Severo had already spoken to him in this position many times.
Severo is sitting, naturally, not as tall as she is standing.
He looked at Severo with a condescending glance, sensing his metro aura.
“Yes, the company listens to me, after all, I am now the legal entity, the major shareholder, and you gave me all this. Allyce’s words took on a tinge of provocation.
Severo looked at her with interest, the corners of his lips turned up in a wry smile: “So you won’t even give me a cup of coffee?
His tone and demeanour were as natural as if he were talking to her about the weather, but Allyce somehow heard a tinge of resignation in him, as if he had really treated her badly.
Bored, Allyce was about to withdraw her hand and stand up when the office door opened from outside.
Dita has an important document to deliver to Allyce, only to walk in and see Allyce’s dominant pose with Severo in her arms.
“… I’m fine, you guys carry on …”
He closed the door quickly and went out.
Allyce withdrew her hand with some embarrassment, she and Severo could do whatever they wanted with the door closed, but she was a little embarrassed to be seen by the others.
Severo looked at her with an annoyed face and reached out to clasp her hand in his arms: “Why did you stop, didn’t you hear that Dita told us to go on?
Allyce growled softly, “Follow up with what?
“Who knows what you just tried to do to me?” Severus raised an eyebrow and looked at her with a smirk, his dark pupils seemed to have a swirl in them, trying to suck her whole body in.
Allyce snapped back to attention and reached out to pinch his waist: “Can you be serious, what are you doing here today?
Severo took her hand in his, and his tone was light, as if he were talking business: “I’d like to be decent, but now you’re the one who’s coming on to me.
Allyce couldn’t understand how Severo could say such things without his face changing.
Although he wasn’t going to do anything to Severo, he blushed a little.
She jerked her hand away and tried to get up, but Severo was quick enough to pull her back and she landed firmly in his arms.
Allyce got angry at him for not being decent and fought twice.
Severo has been a vegetarian for a long time and is not a willow boy, so he will not be able to resist the taste of a warm, soft fragrance in his arms.
Allyce was wearing a professional suit, and his hand slid easily down the hem of her dress, his broad, rough palm pressing against her slim waist, rubbing it none too gently.
The tone was soft, but with an inexplicable threat: “You’re having dinner with another man and I can’t go with you?
His tone was soft, as if he was going to do something to Allyce if she didn’t respond to his liking.
Allyce’s waist, which was already a little sensitive, trembled a little at that moment.
Then, in retrospect, a strong note of vinegar emerges from Severo’s words.
She reached out her hand to stop him: “You don’t come home and blame me? Besides, Marco came to see me for a reason, so don’t be jealous all the time.
Petty jealousy has never changed.
Instead of appeasing Severo, her words irritated him even more.
His hand on Allyce’s waist suddenly tightened, his voice slightly gravelly, “Are you going to tell me you don’t know what Marco has in mind for you?”
Allyce sniffed and her face sank, “Severo, what do you mean?”
