Flash Marriage Makes A Perfect Match

Chapter 24: I …… Just eating that ……



Senona looked at Enzo uncomfortably and immediately replied: “What are you talking about? You want to go to the public relations department yourself. I don’t know anything about those things, so how can I teach you?

Allyce said no more, just looked at Senona with a deep smile.

She didn’t know if Enzo’s concern for her was real or not, but it felt good to find a way to shut Senona up like that.

“You’re her cousin. You’re more sensible than she is, so why don’t you help her choose a better flat?” said Enzo, with a hint of reproach in his voice.

Senona bit her lip. Although there were no tears, her eyes were dull and her voice somber, “Enzo, Allyce really wants to go and I don’t want to disappoint her …”

Although she was not crying, there was concern in her tone, which seemed more heartbreaking to others.

“I’m not blaming you,” Enzo said apologetically.

Severo stood up abruptly: “Mr Aybar, Allyce is very tired. Let’s go first.

With that, he dragged Allyce along.

Outside the room, Allyce let out a long sigh of relief: “We won’t be eating with them again”.

“I thought you were going to take a glass and throw red wine in your cousin’s face.”

Severo’s tone was serious. He took her by the hand and walked down the corridor towards the lift.

Without thinking, Allyce said, “Enzo would think badly of me if I did that. Isn’t that what Senona wants?”

Severo’s eyes darkened: “Do you care that much what Enzo thinks of you?

“…” He felt as if he had said the wrong thing.

At that moment, the lift doors opened; Severo let go of her hand and stepped straight in.

Allyce looked at his empty hand and followed him to the lift, watching his expression carefully.

The lift stopped on the ground floor. Severo hadn’t looked at her the whole lift ride.

He looked really angry. Just as he was thinking about how to explain himself, he saw the familiar face of Xabat Vasconcelos in front of them.

Allyce called him first: “Mr. Vasconcelos!

Xabat’s eyes darted back and forth between the two men and a meaningful smile appeared on his face. Mr. Betances and Mrs. Betances”.

Allyce’s mind suddenly wandered to the broken wine bottle. The account had not been settled. And it was uncomfortable for her to see him like this again.

Severo, probably very angry with Allyce, caught sight of Xabat and just gave him a cold look and walked away without saying anything.

Xabat approached Allyce and said in a gossipy tone: “What happened to your husband, Mrs. Betances?

Her husband ….. . Mrs. Betances ….

Allyce’s heart fluttered slightly and she whispered: “I just made him angry.

At those words, Xabat’s eyes widened and he pointed at Allyce before finally saying: “That’s incredible!

“… “Allyce’s jaw dropped.

However, he did not forget to ask about yesterday: “About that bottle of red wine, did your boss say how to fix it?

“The bottle of red wine …” Xabat interrupted the last word, then said with a smile on his face, “Mr. Betances sorted it out. Go ask him. Mrs. Betances, remember that we are friends and we should come here more often in the future”.

With that, he stepped into the lift.

Although Allyce was a little puzzled by Xabat’s peculiar enthusiasm, she didn’t pay much attention to it.

When she got out of the Gindis, she found Severo leaning against the car, with the passenger door open, apparently waiting for her.

When he saw her approaching, he said, “Get in”.

Then, turning, he went to the other side and sat in the driver’s seat.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Allyce buckled her seatbelt and took a deep breath before she thought about speaking. Mr. Vasconcelos said he had solved the problem with the bottles. Did you give him the money?”

Without looking at her, Severo said rather coldly, “I borrowed it from a friend”.

“You have a very good friend. Allyce felt a little envious. Her friend had lent her a car to drive and had even lent her that kind of money.

After a moment’s thought, he added: “I’ll pay you back little by little”.

“It’s not necessary.” Severo started the car.

At the same time, within Gindis.

Enzo called the waiter to ask for the bill, but then a tall man came in.

Xabat smiled kindly and said: “Mr. Aybar, Miss Delahoz, the bill has been paid by our boss. You are very welcome to come here again”.

“Your boss?” Enzo and Senona looked at each other in surprise, not to say they didn’t know Gindis’ boss. Probably no one in Cloud City knew him.

The smile on Xabat’s face widened, “Mr. Betances and our boss are good friends, so our boss invited Mr. Betances this time …”

Enzo was stunned and said aloud: “Severo Betances?

“This is Mr. Severo Betances. If you need anything else, don’t hesitate to ask. Then I will say goodbye. Xabat walked away.

Both Enzo and Senona were lost in deep contemplation.

Allyce had no idea what had happened in Gindis.

Right now, his whole mind was on Severo.

At home, Severo went straight to the bathroom.

Allyce, standing in front of the double bed, heard the sound of running water in the bathroom and hurried to the kitchen.

On his way out, Severo found the bed empty and heard voices coming from the kitchen. He turned towards the noise and found Allyce rummaging in the kitchen; he approached her.

“What are you doing, are you still hungry?”

Allyce slowed her pace and said softly, “Yes”.

Hearing this, Severo went over to her and pulled her aside; he took out two eggs and some vegetables and started boiling water in a pot.

Then he looked up and asked: “Do you want pasta with eggs and vegetables?

Allyce nodded quickly; she wasn’t really that hungry.

Allyce watched him stir the noodles in the pot and said aloud, “Are you still angry?

“Don’t you think I should be angry?” said Severo without looking up.

She was still in her dressing gown, her hair slightly damp, a spoon in her hand, her eyes fixed on the pot; her voice lacked emotion, as if she were asking him a random question.

Allyce looked at him carefully for a few seconds: “I just don’t want to give Senona the satisfaction.

“But you don’t have to use a method you are not used to. If you don’t like something, you can fight against it. If you don’t want to do something, you can say no to it. Everyone has the right to say no.”

Severo finished and poured the noodles into a bowl.

“Come and eat.” Severo carried the bowl to the table and called Allyce.

Allyce was stunned by his words. Everyone has the right to say “no”. However, not everyone can say “no” without fear.

Allyce was no longer very hungry and could only eat half of what was on her plate. However, when Severo sat down opposite her, staring at her, she tried to eat more.

“Are you full?” asked Severo suddenly.

“Yes.” Allyce nodded.

The next second, the bowl was taken away and then …..

Allyce looked at the bowl of noodles Severo was eating and couldn’t help but say: “I … am eating that …” .
