Chapter 81: What are you doing running without sleep!
“No, I’ve had it for years, it’s not broken, I’m used to it.” Allyce looked at her wrist and smiled brightly.
Gabrio’s smile faded and he reached out to stroke her head.
Severo, who was sitting across the table, squinted and watched the intimate gestures between the two, reached over and put his arm around Allyce’s shoulders, his voice as cold as ice: “I didn’t know Mr. Ortis and my wife were old friends.
At the word “wife”, Gabrio’s face showed surprise and he turned his head to look at Allyce, as if to confirm it.
Allyce didn’t expect Severo to say that, so she didn’t know how to react and lowered her head at Gabrio’s gaze.
Gabrio took it as an admission.
Although his mind was blown, he knew this was not the time to speak.
Bowing his head and gathering his things, he said a few more words and left.
Allyce went to the door to see him off, watched him walk away and was about to turn around when she heard Severo’s voice behind her: “The person is gone and you can’t let her go?
As soon as Allyce heard his tone, she thought something was wrong, but Severo was right, she felt a little sad to see him go.
“It’s been years since I’ve seen Brother Gabrio, it’s quite sad”. Allyce’s face contained an exclamation.
Brother Gabrio, so affectionately called, was still sad to part.
Severo took several deep breaths before suppressing the fire in his raw heart.
He gave Allyce a cold look and turned on his heel before heading up the stairs.
“Se….”
Allyce was about to call out to him, but when she looked at his cold, hard back, she silenced him.
He turned his head to look at the calf in its cage: “Your father is very grumpy”.
Beef looked at her, buried his head and went back to sleep.
Allyce couldn’t help whispering, “You’re pretty grumpy yourself …”.
…
So much had happened tonight that Allyce had long been sleepy, and Severo had gone upstairs, presumably to bed as well.
Was he going to sleep here tonight too?
She blushed as she remembered what had happened the last time she came to the villa, but then thought that she and Severo had made it clear that time that he wouldn’t do anything to her.
With that in mind, she too climbed the stairs.NôvelDrama.Org content.
As soon as he went upstairs, he saw Severo come out of the bedroom in his dressing gown.
“Are you still awake?” Looking at Severo’s expressionless face, he felt a little strangeness and a little restlessness in his heart.
So, as soon as her words were out of his mouth, Severo turned around and closed the door immediately.
“…”
How can there be a sense that Severo was playing with a temper?
Not knowing what Severo was angry about, Allyce had to find a side room off the master bedroom to sleep in.
He opened the wardrobe and discovered that there was nothing there and that he had no clothes, what should he do?
Knocking on Severo’s door again?
That was the only way forward.
She went to Severo’s door and knocked on it. He was not angry enough not to open it.
It was half a minute before Severo reached the door and opened it.
Seeing Allyce standing in the doorway, there was a dark gleam in her eyes and an imperceptible note of anticipation in her voice: “Doing what?”
His gaze burned a little and Allyce ducked her head uncomfortably, “Can I borrow your clothes, I don’t have any to change into …”
Severo’s expression cooled and he slammed the door shut.
A few seconds later, the door opened again, and before Allyce could see Severo’s person, a shirt flew into his face, directly over his head.
By the time Allyce took off his shirt, the door had closed again.
Allyce frowned, confusion flashing across her face, he wasn’t regretting saving her life because he remembered what she had said last time, was he?
The more Allyce thought about it, the more she believed it was a possibility.
He returned to the side bedroom with the shirt in his arms.
After showering, he put on his shirt and washed his personal clothes, thinking he would wear them tomorrow.
But, in this weather, it wouldn’t be dry until tomorrow morning if I let it dry.
He did not dare to knock on Severo’s door again.
He went out cautiously and found the clothes dryer on the ground floor, and as he prepared to go upstairs, he met Severo, who was coming down the stairs.
Allyce hid the clothes in her hand and called him, “Severo”.
There was no hint of sleep on his face, he did not look asleep and probably went downstairs to get a drink of water.
Severo didn’t expect her to be downstairs at this hour, and his eyes went to her bare, snow-white legs.
The black shirt he had brought her was a black shirt; she was white and bare and just a little above her shoulders, and the black shirt was wide and big, making her look even slimmer and slimmer.
The black shirt, the white skin, Severo could hardly take his eyes off her.
He turned his head and felt a tightness in his throat, bringing his hand to his neck before remembering that he wasn’t wearing a tie.
“Nothing.” Allyce lowered her head slightly and hid her clothes a little more in her hand.
Severo noticed what was hidden in his hands and asked no questions, picking up his feet and continuing along the path.
Without looking at him, Allyce lifted her feet and climbed the stairs, consciously walking away from him as she staggered.
However, the shoes he was wearing were so big that when he stepped on the step, he missed the edge, slipped and his whole body fell backwards.
“Ah…”
Allyce screamed in shock, her arms opened wide to grab something, and the clothes she had hidden in her hands fell off.
Quick as lightning, Severo grabbed her and, with a light push, rolled her into his arms.
Allyce reflexively wrapped her arms around his waist and let out a long, heartfelt sigh of relief.
Realising that he was holding Severo’s waist and the humiliating way he had just fallen, his hands dropped as quickly as if he had been electrocuted.
But Severo’s grip around her waist grew tighter and tighter, so that she was unable to break free from his embrace.
She nudged him, “Severo …”
There was still a slight lingering note in his voice, a light trill that tickled the tip of Severo’s heart for a moment.
Four eyes met.
Allyce’s eyes held a hint of anguish, Severo’s eyes were dark and as if on fire.
The large hand marked her waist, warm through a thin layer of cloth.
Severo didn’t speak, and Allyce opened her mouth, pushing back slightly, “You … let go … um … ”
The unfinished words were blocked by a deep kiss.
