Chapter 740: He felt too happy and a bit scared
Allyce was not in a very good mood when she got home.
Noticing her low mood, Severo poured her a glass of water and asked her: “What’s wrong with you?
Allyce took a sip of water and held it in her hand, paused and said, “Casimiro is in the hospital”.
“It’s normal to get sick when you’re older,” Severo said in a light voice, taking the cup from her hand.
Allyce nodded, remembering Casimiro’s earlier words, and asked Severo aloud, “Did you come to see me at the hospital when I was there?”
Severo thought for a moment before nodding, “Well, he came, once a month, but I didn’t let him in, I thought you didn’t want to see him”.
Allyce shook her head, “It’s OK, the bond between me and him is long gone.
He thought back to the scene he had seen at the hospital.
He was right about Casimiro’s miserable old age.
When he was ill and hospitalised, not even his own son wanted to visit him.
He told Severo and Severo scoffed: “Eric must be trying to piss him off if he goes to see him, Eric is now keeping an eye on the Delahoz Group and he wouldn’t dare let Eric know he was sick in hospital.
Allyce’s mouth was slightly open, half open.
It is true that like father, like son.
…
What she did not expect, however, was that Casimiro would appear before her in Cloud Bay the day before their wedding.
Severo was at Kimdis’ wedding venue to confirm the set-up.
“Madam, there is an elderly gentleman outside looking for you”.
“The old man?” Allyce couldn’t think who it could be for a moment and simply got up and walked out with the maid.
When he reached the door, he saw Casimiro standing healthy at the front door, dressed in a suit and carrying a cane.
He looked in much better shape than the day she had seen him in the hospital.
The weather turned cooler, but it was still a little hot under the hot sun.
Allyce was silent for a moment and said to a maid standing next to her, “Tell Casimir to come in and sit down”.
With that, he turned directly into the foyer.
The maid prepared the tea and brought it up, then retired.
Allyce and Casimir sat opposite each other, drinking half a pot of tea in silence before Casimir took the initiative and broke the silence.
She took a document out of her bag and handed it to Allyce: “Sign this, on it”.
Allyce’s face changed slightly when she saw the few words on the flap of the document: “What does that mean?
“I’m getting old, I’m not strong enough, I don’t have enough brains, I can’t run such a big company anymore, and I know Eric better than anyone, he can’t take on that responsibility.
Casimiro’s tone is tinged with a hint of anguish.
Allyce’s eyes returned to the few large words on the flap of the document.
— Letter of transfer of assets.
Casimiro wants to transfer half of the shares of the Delahoz Group to him.
Allyce was a little puzzled as to why Casimir would do this, so she didn’t speak for a moment.
Casimiro thought Allyce was going to say no and said, “Do it for a good cause, the Delahoz Group is also your father’s work, and there are so many old employees who have been with the Delahoz Group all their lives, you can’t just stand by and watch Eric ruin it! ”NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
As he spoke, he shook his head repeatedly and tears were already glistening in his eyes.
“Oh Allyce, I’ve been confused all my life, only now, ah, I’m more awake, and I don’t expect you to forgive me, just do me a favour and do a good deed, okay?”
His pleading tone and penitent gaze made Allyce feel more uncomfortable looking at him.
The day finally came when Casimiro repented.
As the anticipation was long gone, his heart did not waver.
He thought of his father, Orlin, and still couldn’t stop his eyes from reddening.
Just as, at the time, I could not understand why Casimir had been so cruel, I could not understand why he was now suddenly repentant.
She sniffed and said, “I accept the shares, but I will not accept a free gift; I will buy back the Delahoz Group shares you have, at market price. ”
Casimiro shook his head hastily, “You don’t need to buy, you too are originally from The Delahoz family, you …”
“We broke off our relationship a long time ago.” Allyce looked up into his, her pretty peach eyes distant.
Casimiro’s unfinished words stuck in his throat.
Allyce continued: “When my wedding is over, I’ll draw up the contract and have it sent to you”.
Casimiro heard the finality in his tone and could say no more.
Casimiro left with the first foot and Severo returned.
As soon as he entered the living room, he saw Allyce sitting on the sofa with red eyes, as if she had just cried.
His heart clenched and he took a big step forward: “What’s going on?
Allyce looked at him and the tears in her eyes burst through the valve like a torrent and spilled out.
Severo was frightened for a moment, took her in his arms, thought of the car he had seen leaving the area on the way up, and asked her: “Who was here?
Allyce stifled a sob: “Casimiro”.
Severo’s voice went cold for a moment: “What are you doing here?
“He sent me the capital transfer … I didn’t ask for it … and he said he was sorry … oooh….. …” said Allyce, unable to stop crying as she reached the end of her sentence.
That pardon was said between Casimiro’s departure.
At the time, Allyce’s feelings were not as pronounced.
However, at this moment, as she was held in Severo’s arms, the feeling of anguish and helplessness was instantly magnified, making her feel unusually sad.
What more apologies can be made, his father was dead.
for those who died and never came back.
All the grievances he had suffered had also been burned into his heart.
While all these things have passed, the pain and grievances have softened.
He no longer hates, but he can’t do forgiveness either.
Severo hugged her a little tighter, kissed the top of her hair and whispered, “It’s better if you don’t come to our wedding, OK?
“Well …,” Allyce whispered in response.
Then he picked her up and asked her as he went upstairs, “What do you want for dinner, tell me and I’ll prepare it, go upstairs and rest for a while, you can eat when you wake up from your nap”.
The voice was soft and a little persuasive.
Allyce’s emotions were calming down as she announced the names of some of the dishes.
Severo made a mental note of the name of the dish.
When they reached the bedroom, Severo stayed with Allyce and watched her fall asleep before going downstairs.
He called Casimiro.
Without any inflection, very directly: “Casimiro, if possible, I would like you not to be present at our wedding tomorrow”.
Although Casimiro did not have Severo’s phone number, he heard his voice.
He would never forget Severo, the young man whose heart felt like it was scared to look at him.
“But, Allyce sent me an invitation …”
“Even if I had sent you an invitation, would you have the nerve to come?”
Severo’s words penetrate straight into Casimiro’s heart.
Except in the presence of Allyce, who is gentle and patient, he remains the same thunderous and implacable Severo in front of strangers.
Only after a long moment did Casimiro utter: “I know”.
Hanging up the phone, Severo turned his head to see Alonzo coming down the stairs in his slippers.
I was sleeping upstairs before.
He looked up, saw Severo looking at him, blinked and ran to Severo, throwing his arms around Severo’s legs: “Dad, you’re back”.
Alonzo is a beautiful boy and he looks so, so adorable like this.
Severo, who has always been aloof, couldn’t help pinching his face.
He pinched Alonzo’s face expressionlessly, finding it amusing and wanting to pinch him again.
Severo raised both eyebrows in disgust, but did not turn away.
His reaction made Severo laugh when he realised that the children had not seemed so funny to him.
Then he lifted Alonzo up: “Go to mother’s room with her.
“What are you doing?” Alonzo asked Severo, tapping him on the chin.
Severo raised an eyebrow: “She’s in a bad mood and sleeping, keep her company but don’t wake her up”.
Alonzo’s eyes widened and he replied: “Good.
As a person controlled by his mother, Alonzo would like to keep her company when she is upset.
“It goes on.
Severo put him on the floor and patted his buttocks. The buttocks.
Alonzo rubbed his backside. She frowned, wanting to say something but not daring to, so he hurried up the stairs.
Severo raised an eyebrow in disbelief: “What’s wrong with a pat on the? What’s wrong with that? If I wake your… I’ll even give you a spanking if I wake your… mother, do you believe it or not?”.
Without looking back, Alonzo ran even faster and was gone in an instant.
This son, after all, is still somewhat useful.
Run fast and do it. Mum is happy.
…
Allyce went to bed early in the evening because the wedding was the next day.
Instead, it was Severo, who had trouble sleeping.
He spent some time with Alonzo in the living room watching cartoons and Alonzo was sleepy and yawning.
“Dad, why aren’t you asleep, I’m sleepy …” he said, and yawned.
“Go up to bed if you’re sleepy.” Severo looked at him.
Alonzo jumped off the sofa to climb the stairs, turned around to see Severo sitting alone and fell back down.
Severus saw him again and asked him: “Aren’t you sleepy?
Alonzo hugged him and murmured: “You’re here alone, aren’t you afraid?
Severo laughed that if he had wanted to accompany him, he would have said so, but he had to beat around the bush.
However, Alonzo was so young that he soon fell asleep, leaning on Severo.
Severo picked up the remote control and turned off the sound of the television before gently lifting Alonzo.
After putting Alonzo back in his place, he returned to his room to see Allyce.
Allyce slept heavily and he gave her a kiss on the forehead before sitting down in the corner with his phone, turning off the sound and starting to play a game.
I can’t sleep.
He was too happy and a bit scared.
An inexplicable fear.
Once he played this game, he played it until midnight.
Suddenly a news item appeared.
“The wife of the former president of the LK Group, who was exposed to prohibited drugs in her early years …”
Just reading the first words made Severo sit up and take note.
