Flash Marriage Makes A Perfect Match

Chapter 68: Dealing as a partner



The lift finally stopped at Allyce’s floor.

She and Ula Cabello left one after the other and went home.

As soon as they entered, the expression on Allyce’s face fell.

He had left Severo’s villa without shoes, and had stepped on something on the way, and felt a vague tingling in the soles of his feet.

She went into the bathroom, took a messy shower and got into bed, half awake, half asleep, dreaming of her childhood and tossing and turning until dawn, when she barely slept.

She was woken by the sound of the doorbell.

He turned around, sat down, put on a shirt and went out to open the door.

As soon as he opened the door, Xabat’s smiling face appeared: “Good morning, Miss Delahoz.

People always get excited, and as Xabat is Severo’s assistant, it is inevitable that she gets irritated.

He said “Good morning” without emotion and prepared to close the door.

Xabat slipped a bag into the door with a quick and precise movement, obviously waiting for Allyce to do so.

Allyce looked at him with a thin layer of anger in her eyes.

Xabat piled on a smile: “The boss was busy all night and went to the mall at dawn to pick them out himself, just take a look …”.

Have a look at …

Allyce had just looked at the logo on the bag, it was the family logo on the dress she had worn yesterday, which she had bought when she had just returned home.

With a little reflection, he knew what it contained.

“Thank you Mr. Vasconcelos for coming to deliver my clothes.” Allyce smiled suddenly and softly, her slender white fingers resting on the bag as she slowly pushed it back, “Goodbye.”

Xabat, who had only ever seen Allyce’s cold face, had never seen her smile so sweetly.

Then the door slammed shut.

“Miss Delahoz! Open the door, I gave my marching orders in front of my boss before I came here, if I don’t hand over my things to you, I’ll be miserable back …”

Xabat knocked on the door outside, sounding distressed.

Why was he always unlucky when his boss fell in love?

Allyce listened to Xabat’s words with her back against the door and pulled the corners of her lips viciously, she was in a bad mood, let’s all be miserable.

……

In the end, Xabat had to retrieve his things intact.

Severo was standing in front of the fish tank with a handful of fish food, spreading it out a little at a time.

When he heard light footsteps behind him, he knew that Xabat had returned.

Xabat waited for Severo to say something, but it was as if Severo didn’t even notice he was there, and just handed out the fish food without looking at him.

Xabat finally couldn’t hold his tongue and hung his head: “Miss Delahoz confiscated this”.

Severo still didn’t turn around, his gaze settled on a black-tailed fish in the tank, his tone a little cold: “Have you opened the door?”

“Open.” Xabat wondered why Severo was suddenly asking, but answered truthfully anyway.

Severo returned the small handful of fish food that remained in his hand and turned his head to Xabat: “Did he talk to you?

“A couple of words.

Severo’s gaze paused slightly before turning away to wash his hands, “Hmmm .”

With that, he went to his desk and began to attend to his business.

Leaving Xabat standing in place with a big foggy face.

So that’s it? What happened to the expected rage?

Why not?

Had the boss changed his mind?

Xabat returned from Allyce’s house with a sense of apprehension and then, his face unhinged, went out.

Sitting at his desk, Severo’s eyes were fixed on the file open in front of him, but his mind was elsewhere.

After opening the door and talking to Xabat, he was a little better than I expected and should … not be too angry.

After being disturbed by Xabat’s knocking on the door, Allyce didn’t feel like sleeping.

After washing up and getting ready to go out for dinner, she received a call from Lucila, who happened to invite her to dinner.

When she arrived, Lucila was already tidying up.

When he saw her coming, he pushed the menu straight at her.

Consequently, Lucila’s eyes widened as she looked at her face: “You are very pale, with dark circles under your eyes and no make-up, when did you become so careless?

“There’s nothing to put on.” Allyce was in a bad mood, for she had not slept well all night.

Picking up the menu, he ordered two dishes at random and then leaned back, looking a little grim.

“What were you doing last night?” Lucila looked at her mysteriously.

“Nothing.” Allyce’s eyes were a little uncomfortable looking at her like that.

He said he had done nothing, but he had done everything but the last course.

He felt a little guilty when he thought about it.

Lucila could see the weakness in his face and knew something was wrong, so Allyce couldn’t resist and told him a little about the night before.

Lucila’s eyebrows rose as she listened, “In front of the moon, in a luxury villa, with no clothes on, and he answered the phone? And you ran away?”

Allyce explained: “That’s not the point …”.

“I know, the point is that you didn’t make it”.

“…” Allyce held her forehead, unsure how to tell him what she was thinking.

Monday.

Allyce arrived at the office first thing in the morning.

After attending the morning meeting, he returned to the office and started to prepare the documents.

After the signing of the contract and the follow-up, he still had a lot to learn.

At that moment, Lucila pushed open the door and put the pile of materials she had in her hand in front of her: “This is what you need for today, read it first.

“All right, you can leave it here.” Allyce looked up and smiled at him.

Lucila seemed to have more to say and stood still.

Allyce asked, “What else?”

“L. K. called and said he’s going to come this afternoon to talk about the collaboration behind the scenes.

Allyce sniffed, her eyes twinkling, not really caring, “Hmm, I see”.

“The phone number given to the person in charge there, you should contact him, after all, the first time we find weak cooperation, take the initiative to call to show our sincerity”.

Lucila finished speaking and placed in front of her a string of phone numbers she had written down some time ago.

Allyce was slightly stunned, picked up the phone number and looked at it, smiled: “I know, go do your work, you’ll be busy later.

Lucila looked at her, but seeing that she was acting as if nothing was wrong, she turned around and walked out.

After Lucila left, Allyce looked at the string of numbers, the smile on her face faded and her expression grew colder.

To negotiate this kind of cooperation, the big boss of the company usually did not need to go out personally, otherwise the people under his hands would be in vain.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Although she had always wanted to draw a clear line with Severo, she did not find it easy after Severo had now truly treated her as a partner.

On the contrary, there was untold depression.
