Neto opened his mouth and nodded his head somewhat expressionlessly.


    Another man came through the iron gate, thin and dressed in ck.


    Luc couldn’t help but stare in disbelief, what was Mr. Severo doing here too?


    Horacio didn’t care who wasing, he looked through the crowd and when he didn’t see Marco, he shouted, “Where’s Marco? That son of a bitch is too scared toe”.


    He was so excited that the dagger against Luc’s neck tightened as he spoke.


    Luc bowed her head, looked down and closed her eyes in horror.


    Shit, so high!


    Neto’s voice cracked loudly: “If you let her go, I will grant you anything you want, and I can even arrange a flight to get you out of the country”.


    Horatius was unusually determined: “I don’t want anything to die but Marcus’s book!”


    Luc looked around and didn’t see Marco, who fortunately wasn’t here.


    “I’ll give you ten minutes, and if Marco doesn’te, I’ll take your wife and jump from here!” Horatio stared at Neto with a look of gloom and doom.


    Luc knows that Horacio is not just a talker, he is not afraid to die.


    He and Gervasio have risked life and death.


    Neto felt his heart leap into his throat as he reassured Horacio: “Don’t worry, we can talk about everything …”.


    Severo, who was standing to one side, suddenly raised his hand in a strange gesture when the two men were not looking.


    The next second, Horatio stiffened, his eyes wide with disbelief and resignation.


    Before Neto could understand what was happening, Severo had run quickly, grabbed the dagger out of Horacio’s hand, pulled Luc and threw it at Neto.


    Neto unconsciously caught Luc, and when he looked up again, he saw that Horacio had copsed to the ground, his eyes wide open and breathless, and that bright red blood was gushing from under his head.


    Neto reacted and asked Severo: “Did my older brother organise the snipers?


    Severo looked at Luc and said, “He has not arranged for a sniper”.


    “Is that him?” asked Luc, reacting first.


    Severo nodded and ordered the men to take Gervasio, who was still unconscious, and Horacio’s body away, leaving Luc and Neto alone.


    Neto held Luc in his arms, still feeling his heart pounding from a day and night he didn’t know how he had gotten through.


    Neto kissed her along the top of her hair, her forehead, all the way to her lips before, with reddened eyes, he asked, “Is it really OK? Let me see.


    Seeing how nervous he was, Luc opened her hands and twirled them in front of him, saying, “Look, I’m fine, I’m not lying, it’s really fine”.


    Neto, with his sharp eyes, immediately saw the wound in the palm of his hand.


    He took her hand, looked at her frozen wound, pressed apassionate kiss to her lips and lifted her in a horizontal embrace.


    “Let’s go back first.


    Luc eximed: “If you put me down, I can walk!


    However, Neto paid no attention.


    …


    There are many cars parked outside the neighbourhood.


    Luc stood in front of a car and saw Marco, still wearing his protective clothing.


    He was standing in front of the car, about to light a cigarette, when he saw Neto approaching with Luc in his arms, so he handed back the lighter he had already taken out and went over to ask, “Is everything all right?”


    Luc, still in Neto’s arms, said shyly, “It’s OK”.


    Marco nodded and said no more, walking to the other side to light his cigarette.


    Severo approached from the back and looked at Marco with a sullen face smoking a cigarette, and with a raised eyebrow, he approached and said directly, “Are you nervous?”


    Without nodding or shaking his head, Marco took out his cigarette case and handed it to Severo.


    In fact, he was a little nervous that he wouldn’t be able to get it right and that Neto wouldn’t forgive him if something happened to Luc.


    Severo, of course, does not respond, his tone is light: “Stop smoking for my daughter”.


    Marco was puzzled for a moment and then scoffed: “You know it’s a daughter before she’s born! Maybe it’s even a boy. ”


    There was a hint of joy in his tone.


    Severo shot mercilessly: “Let’s not talk about children, just so you know, you don’t even have a wife, and besides, you’re older than me”.


    “…,” Marco choked, not knowing what to say.


    He felt that as long as he remained single and childless, he would never have the upper hand against Severo.


    He was a bit in love with his wife, why is he so vindictive?


    Shit!


    On the way back, Neto was still holding Luc’s hand tightly.


    Luc’s mood had calmed down and it seemed to her that Neto, on the other hand, had be too nervous.


    He changed the subject after a few reassuring words to no avail.


    “How did Mr. Severo end up in Ciudad del Cielo?


    “Allyce called me when she couldn’t reach you, and she came running when she heard something had happened to you”.


    “Really?” Luc was instantly a little ttered.


    But then he thought about it, and something didn’t feel right.


    “Allyce is pregnant with his baby, how is she going to walk around? Wouldn’t it be bad for her toe to Sky City when Mr. Severo has her as precious as a piece of gold?”


    “That’s what people with two partners do”.Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    It seems to be the same.


    The group headed straight for the Pastrano familypound.


    As soon as Luc got out of the car, she shook off Neto’s hand and ran off towards the mansion, because Neto said that Allyce was in the Pastrano family.


    “Allyce!” he shouted Allyce’s name as he ran.


    Allyce had received a call from Severo earlier, knowing that all was well, and had been waiting for quite a while, when she heard Luc’s voice from a distance.


    He led Alonzo towards the exit and Alonzo was happy to see Luc, shouting from afar: “Luc!


    “Alonzo is here too!” Luc walked over and simply hugged and kissed Alonzo.


    Alonzo silently wiped the drool from his face.


    Luc then gave Allyce a bear hug and said, with some grumbling, “You’re pregnant, why are you running around?


    Allyce immediately said: “It’s early days, just under three months, there’s nothing wrong with that”.


    Those who had stayed behind Luc moved forward at that moment.


    Allyce spotted Severo in the crowd and raised her hand to greet him, smiling again.


    Severo’s steps quickened and he approached her, in a soft voice: “Is everything alright?


    “What can I do? And you’ve only been gone an hour. Allyce thought Severo was getting nosy.


    Severo raises an eyebrow and reaches out to pinch her face, but Allyce ps his hand away.


    He didn’t care, smiled, took her hand, turned to the crowd and said: “We’ll go first.


    The next thing Neto and the others had to deal with was a family matter, and he and Allyce were too strange to stay.


    Luc had much more to say to Allyce, but the current situation was such that it was only possible to patch things up.
