Chapter 772: Mr. Severo was unable to control his emotions.
Allyce is already slim, so a little weight won’t hurt.
When he speaks, he seems happy with a natural smile between his eyebrows and at the corners of his eyes.
Lucila laughed and teased her, “That’s not good, you’ve put on so much weight in a circle that you’re not even beautiful anymore, tsk …”.
“Lucila!” growled Allyce, “I don’t care, you’re going to say I look good even though I’m fat.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Mr. Severo just thinks you look good …” Lucila looked at Allyce, her eyes moved to her forehead and she shook her head with a sigh, “I’ve been looking at her for half a day and I thought something was wrong, but she’s bigger here, and she’s much bigger …”
Allyce reacted to the meaning of Lucila’s words and blushed at the thought: “I don’t talk to you about this nonsense because I have a baby in my belly, I turn it off!
“No, why are you blushing, it’s just that Mr. Severo can’t control himself, you’re now pregnant …”
Before he could finish his sentence, Allyce switched off the video, followed by the sound of the door opening.
He turned his head and saw Neto making his way through the door.
He approached with a smirk, and how Lucila thought he looked lewd this way.
He walked over, pulled Lucila into his arms, kissed her and asked, “Who did you just say was hard to control?
Lucila nudged him, looked towards the door and asked, “Uncle Pastrano has gone?
“Well, she’s gone and most probably won’t be back. Neto tightened his arms and hugged her a little tighter.
Sensing that he was not in a good mood, Lucila hugged him again and patted him on the back: “What’s wrong with you?
“Nothing, I just want to go back to Cloud Cit”.
Lucila softened her voice for a rare moment to reassure him, “Then we’ll be back, is there anything else you want to do around here?”.
“He said grandfather was sick. Neto paused and added, “Tomorrow we’ll go back to The Pastrano Family to see Grandpa, and the day after tomorrow we’ll go back to Cloud Cit.”
“Good”.
…
The next morning Lucila returned to the Pastrano family with Neto.
They had only been in Toli’s flat for a few days, and when they returned to the Pastrano family, Lucila was surprised to feel as if she had been transported back in time.
When the guard at the gate saw Neto, he shouted: “Third master”.
Neto and the guard engaged in small talk, adding at the end: “Bring your daughter-in-law to see the old man”.
The guard froze, “Third Young Grandmother”.
Lucila shuddered at the sound of her name, what an age for a young grandmother.
Still, he smiled at the smile.
Neto had spoken to Aeneas on the phone before returning and the two continued walking inside when they were spotted by Aeneas, who had been walking around the entrance to the hall.
“Third master! Miss Floria,” Aeneas approached with a smile, “Have you eaten?”
Neto is mild against Aeneas.
He laughed in response, “Eaten”.
Then he added: “Aeneas, you needn’t call Miss Floria, it’s too crude, we’re married.
Aeneas froze for a moment, then nodded and led them inside, rambling on about Conrad’s illness as he did so.
“The old man’s health is not as good as it has been for the past two years. When the temperature dropped in the last two days, he had a cold and fever.
Neto frowned a little, he looked a little serious.
“Where is he now?”
“He’s upstairs in the room sick and hasn’t been out for a few days”.
Neto nodded and said: “We’ll go up, Aeneas go and get to work”.
Aeneas said in a serious tone: “Eh, well, you talk to the old man, he is old now and his character is not much better than before, but if you have something, talk to him slowly, it is not impossible to talk it over”.
Neto narrowed his eyes slightly: “I know”.
Aeneas smiled and said no more.
…
Lucila and Neto went upstairs to Conrado’s room.
As it was a weekday and there were no other people in the house, it was exceptionally quiet.
The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, which was getting colder and colder.
Lucila follows Neto when the door is pushed open and she catches a glimpse of Conrado, who is sitting in an armchair, not sure if his eyes are closed or if he has fallen asleep.
As grumpy as he is, he is still a late old man and a blood relative of Neto.
With this thought, Lucila’s heart calmed down.
I could understand Conrad’s feelings.
As soon as the two men entered, Conrad woke up.
He opened his eyes, with a cloudiness under them, and it took him a few seconds to focus clearly.
He smiled, his face covered with wrinkles.
His voice was a little hoarse, “Neto is back!”
“Hmm.” Neto walked over and sat down next to him, looking up at him, “Are you better today?”
“Much better.” He finished and coughed uncontrollably twice more.
Neto frowned a little: “Call the doctor again”.
“The doctor has been coming here every day for a few days now, and I’m taking my medication, I’m much better and it’s not that serious, so don’t worry”. As if fearing Neto’s concern, Conrado explained.
“That’s good.” Neto reflected for a moment and said, “Lucila and I have decided to return to Cloud Cit tomorrow. ”
“Huh?” Conrado froze in a half-hearted reaction before turning his eyes on Lucila, who had been standing silently behind Neto.
His gaze lingered on Lucila for a few seconds, showing no particular emotion, before withdrawing it back to Neto: “Back so soon, and not for a few more days?”
“It’s idle to stay here, I have a job at Cloud Cit.” Conrad had had it at home before and Cloud Cit’s business had been taken over by a professional manager, now he was taking over, after all, he was married and had a family to support, right?
She looked carefully at Conrad’s expression and noticed that he did not show any rejection towards Lucila.
He turned his head to Lucila and gave her a wink.
Lucila was puzzled at first, but then she came to her senses and went up to him and shouted, “Grandfather”.
Conrad pursed his lips slightly, unsure of what he was thinking, and it was a while before he uttered, “Hmm”.
Lucila looked at Neto with surprise, how Conrado had suddenly changed his mind and was not opposed to them being together.
“Ahem!” Conrad coughed dryly a couple more times.
Lucila pursed her lips and said, “Grandfather, I’ll go and pour you some hot water”.
Conrad did not respond even though he was coughing, and Lucila went downstairs.
The atmosphere was somewhat stagnant as only the grandfather and grandson were left in the room.
The division that has been created over the years cannot be released with one or two words.
“I’ve been to see you before. Mum? Is she OK now?”
Neto was a little surprised by the sudden mention of Alanzo by the old white father and son, but it didn’t show on his face.
