Chapter 76 :As for not saying a word?
Richie Nuncio’s leg, which had been injured by Severo, was basically incapable of using his strength and was no different from the others.
That’s why he didn’t get up after Allyce knocked him down and knocked him under his feet.
Now that he saw the culprit who had ruined his leg, he was furious.
Severo looked at Richie Nuncio, clearly not caring.
Instead, he looked at Allyce and swept his eyes over her, “Are you done venting?
Allyce gasped at the sound of his voice and backed away like a bolt of electricity, then nodded, looking a little subdued.
When she didn’t say anything, Severo went to the sink to wash his hands: “Let’s go”.
Then he turned and headed for the exit.
Allyce hurried out as well, not wanting Richie Nuncio to come after her again.
The two came out of the men’s room, one after the other.
Severo was tall and long-legged and had a big stride, so he moved very fast.
Allyce gave him another wary glance and then trotted over to him.
Severo heard the soft but dense footsteps behind him and slowed down a little.
…
Allyce wondered why he had suddenly slowed down and, as he made his way to the box door, he remembered the last time he had bumped into him in the street and had come with his car window down.
She was about to turn her head and greet him, so she quickly stepped forward, pushed open the compartment door and entered.
His movement was a little abrupt and Severo paused slightly, his brow furrowed in obvious displeasure.
I hadn’t seen her for a week, and even if she wasn’t close, at least she was a companion, so why not say a word?
Severo’s face darkened at the thought, but he turned and looked back to check that Richie Nuncio was not following him before continuing on his way.
When he reached his office floor, he caught a glimpse of Xabat and Lucila chatting animatedly.
Severus approached them: “Where is the meat?
“Here, here it is.
Xabat lifted one of the dog crates and the little Border Collie sat on the crate leaning over.
“Wow, I haven’t even seen another dog here right now!” exclaimed Lucila, with stars in her eyes, the girls love furry little animals.
Severo glanced at the little Border Collie and asked Lucila aloud: “Do you think he looks much like one of them?
“Huh?” Lucila was confused for a few seconds because Mr. Severo offered to talk to her outside of work, how exciting!
Then she asked, very tensely, “Like who?”
Severo sniffed, frowned and turned to leave.
Only when Severo entered the office did Xabat whisper in his ear: “Like Miss Delahoz”.
“Huh?” Lucila didn’t understand what he meant and Xabat didn’t explain it to her.
Severo returned to his office and all he could think about was how Allyce had gone straight back to the box without saying a word.
With a strong feeling of displeasure rising in his heart, he shuffled the papers in front of him and called out to Xabat directly: “Get your ass over here”.
Xabat, who had received Severo’s call, had to go in.
Lucila, who was watching him answer the phone, looked surprised: “He didn’t say anything just now, why did he have to call you when he was inside?
Xabat pulled at the corners of his lips and smiled, he thought the boss was jealous that a pretty girl had come to him to talk.
And if he remembered correctly, the boss had not seen or mentioned Miss Delahoz for a week.
The two had no idea of the problems they were having again.
Xabat entered Severo’s office and Lucila returned to the cashier’s desk.
…
In the box.
Allyce is leaning listlessly on the sofa sipping a glass of wine, clearly not in a good mood.
A few men stared at her side of the room, as if they wanted to hit on her.
Although Allyce had a bad reputation, everyone had seen how he had behaved in the company during this time and he was not exactly as legend had it.
Besides, she was pretty and the president’s granddaughter, so it wouldn’t be a loss if we could get her anyway.
It was at that moment that Lucila returned.
“How did it go with Xabat, always running to his house, did you fall in love with him?”
Allyce shifted her position and glanced sideways at Lucila, and sure enough, she saw her with a blushing look on her face.
Lucila covered her face and said with a shy rook: “I think Xabat has his eye on me too”.
Allyce snorted: “You mean Xabat is in love with you? Then you could say that Neto is in love with you”.
“Shit, that fucking wimp, I don’t give a shit if he has eyes for me.” Lucila glared at Allyce, as if she was about to fight her.
At that moment the compartment door opened and a man entered.
Allyce fixed her eyes on the person who looked a little impressed, she was the assistant director of the department.
The assistant approached Allyce directly: “Miss Delahoz, someone from L. K has just called the manager and told him that there is a problem with the project, the manager has received the people from L. K in box 7027 and is waiting for you to come”.
Allyce smiled, a flash of surprise appearing on her face: “If there’s a problem with a collaborative project, shouldn’t the person there call the person in charge first?
In other words, he had not received any calls, so how come he had first approached the head of the department?
“It happened suddenly, we’ll explain when we get over it. The assistant’s voice sounded nothing out of the ordinary, and there was a certain urgency in her tone.
The head of the department was a middle-aged woman, and she tended to take things very seriously.
If I were really the head of the department, I would think it was true.
I had been working late for a week or two on this L. K. project and I didn’t want anything to happen to it.
Lucila got up from the sofa: “I’ll come too”.
Allyce still had some doubts in her mind and looked at her assistant twice, meeting his gaze openly and honestly.
Having fallen victim to Senona several times, his memory had grown.
Lucila, standing next to her, tugged at her sleeve: “Go and have a look first”.
“So, Miss Delahoz, let’s go there now.” The aide finished and stepped forward.
When they reached the door of box 7027, the assistant pushed it open and Allyce and Lucila looked inside in unison, just in time to see the figure of the head of the department.
She was sitting facing the door and the other two had their backs to her.
Then the head of the department looked up and saw Allyce and greeted her.
Allyce was relieved that he really was the head of the department.
Without thinking, she and Lucila entered and the door slammed shut behind them.
Both Allyce and Lucila were startled when they heard the door slam.
The head of the department sat still, smiling at Allyce, and the man sitting across from her returned her gaze.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
He was simply not the person L. K. had been talking to about his project, and Allyce’s heart sank.
As he turned to open the door, he discovered that it appeared to have been welded shut and would not open at all.
“Miss Delahoz, come and sit down, what are you doing standing in the doorway”. The head of the department slowly stood up and walked towards Allyce and Lucila.
