Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Severo Laris hangs up the phone and sits down on the couch.

He leaned against the back of the couch, closed his eyes and contemplated the whole night.

In the second half of the night, Rufio and Susana called.

Rufio said, “Severo, tomorrow … I’ll go with Susana, and Lastra, to La Ciudad Santa to see you, Paulita doesn’t have many best friends, let Susana keep her company. ”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Severo Laris said, “Good.”

After a moment, Severo Laris said, “Thank you.”

Rufio smiled, “Thanks for nothing, we are brothers who have shed blood together in the trenches, besides, Susana and Paulita are iron magnets, Paulita … Has something to do, definitely have to come and see.”

…

At six o’clock in the morning, Severo Laris got up from the living room sofa and went to his bedroom.

Paula Rouco is still sleeping.

Severo Laris put the phone back the way it was, before getting into bed and crawling under the covers, hugging her tightly.

Paula Rouco had been sleeping little and not at all soundly since her illness, and for the moment, when Severo Laris got under the covers in the cool air, she shrank back a little and then arched into his arms, wrapping her small arms around his waist and murmuring in a jocular voice with her eyes closed, “Where have you been, isn’t it hot at all?”

Severo Laris looked at her nubile features, her loving and caring gaze, “I went to cook some porridge so we can have breakfast when you get up later.”

Paula Rouco got a little hungry when she heard about breakfast and her little face arched into the warm corner of her neck, “I want to eat the Xiao Long Bao from south of the city.”

“Okay, I’ll get it later.”

Paula Rouco hugged him and murmured, “No, I don’t want you to go now.”

Like a child, he likes her.

Severo Laris’ hard heart melted and he looked down, kissed her small, white forehead and laughed in a deep whisper, “You want the bun again and you don’t want me to go, are you the bun or do you want me?”

Paula Rouco opened her arms and hugged him, cooing childishly, “Bollos and Severo Laris, I love you both.”

Severo Laris hugged her tightly and ran his big hands through her long, soft, messy hair. “Then I’ll send Salvino for the chapulines.”

Severo Laris held her with a vacant stare.

Paula Rouco lay on top of him and slept for a while, her long, thick eyelashes flickered as she rested in Severo Laris’ arms suddenly opening her eyes to look at him. “I don’t want to be alone, so don’t go away, okay?”

She was sick, but more sensitive.

Severo Laris looked sideways at her, took her small hand in his palm and squeezed it, promising her in a muffled voice, “Yes, I won’t leave you alone.”

Paula Rouco calmed down and wrapped her little arms around his neck and murmured against the side of his neck, “If you leave, the hospital people will come for me, and if they take me away, you’ll never see me again.”

Severo Laris choked on a thousand pounds of stone weighing on his heart, unable to breathe. “I could have visited you even if the hospital people had taken you away, I would never have seen you.”

Severo Laris tried to convince her.

But Paula Rouco stared at him and, seeing that he was really speaking for the hospital, quickly rolled her eyes and pulled the blankets over her head, turning her back on him.

“The hospital has paid you.”

Severo Laris looked at the quilt ball and reached out to hold it back, “The hospital people wouldn’t dare buy from me, I’d curse them if they did.”

“But you speak for them.”

“Lita, I really don’t, I’m always on your side unconditionally.”

Paula Rouco peeked out from under the sheets with two dark eyes and grabbed the sheets with both hands, half looking at him. “Really?”

Severo Laris stared into her eyes and replied, “Well, yes.”

Paula Rouco climbed back into his arms and, like a complacent child, said to Severo Laris, “I’ll eat well and sleep well, as long as you stay with me.”

Severo Laris held out his hand and tousled her long, messy hair, then looked at her silently and affectionately, without saying a word.

Paula Rouco winked at him, “Isn’t that right, Severo Laris?”

“Right.”

Paula Rouco puffed out her little mouth and said, “I’m really going to ignore you if you’re in cahoots with the hospital people to lie to me.”

“Where to ignore me?” asked Severo Laris sheepishly.

Paula Rouco rolled her eyes and said, “Go get the small bean sprouts, they don’t lie to me.”

Severo Laris pulled her by the shoulders and looked at her seriously and solemnly, “lita, promise me you won’t go alone to the small bean sprout.”

“Why?”

“Because, you care so much about the little bean sprout, so much that you wouldn’t even want me for the sake of the little bean sprout, and I’m jealous.”

He wanted to get to the little bean sprouts, which meant exactly from a medical standpoint, Severo Laris wasn’t sure, but he knew it had to be bad.

Paula Rouco gently poked the lump in his throat with her forefinger, “Hmmm … Severo, are you jealous with the little bean?”.

“Well, it’s sour.” Severo Laris didn’t take his eyes off her.

He paced a little lazily, “Okay.”

Severo Laris frowned, “Iita, look at me.”

Paula Rouco looked at him with her neglected schoolboy face, “What?”.

“Don’t go alone to the beanstalk, do you hear me?”

Paula Rouco stroked his little mouth and asked reluctantly, “When are you free, I’d love to go play with the little bean sprouts?”

Severo Laris looked at her, reddening instantly, but not wanting her to see it, he cupped the back of her neck with his big hand and pulled her tightly into his arms.

“What’s so funny about little bean sprouts, can’t I play with you?”

Paula Rouco’s small hands rummaged through the buttons of her pajamas, “We can go play with the little bean sprout.”

Severo Laris: “I don’t want a third person to come along and spoil it for us as a couple.”

“All right then.”

Severo Laris, uneasy, dipped his head into his long hair and gave another order, “Don’t go to the little bean, I’ll get jealous.”

Paula Rouco said sullenly, “But the little bean wants to meet you.”

“Later, there will be a chance.”

…

Severo Laris waited on Paula Rouco after she got up and the two had just finished breakfast when the Rufio and Lastra arrived at the villa.

Susana rushed in first and hugged Paula Rouco.

Paula Rouco was taken aback.

“Susana, are you trying to strangle me?”

Susana hugged her tightly and stifled a choked sob as she deliberately whined, “Why haven’t you looked for me lately, I’m so bored, even though you asked me for a chat, and you what, you don’t even send me a Facebook message. ”

Paula Rouco didn’t know what to say; she hadn’t really thought about looking for Susana lately.

Susana warned him viciously, “In the future, if you have something on your mind, you must come to me or I will be angry.”

Rufio opened his arms and looked at Paula Rouco with a smile, “Paulita, you have been in the field for so long that I have never seriously received you.”

Paula Rouco looked at Susana: “Hugs … are bad, aren’t they?”.

Susana was quite generous: “He’s not my husband today, hug him however you want.”

Paula Rouco looked back at Severo Laris, who smiled slightly and nodded slightly toward her.

Rufio held his arms open and Paula Rouco gave him a token hug to avoid an awkward scene.

Lastra also opened her arms and smiled, “Paulita, after hugging Rufio, give Lastra a hug too!”.

Paula Rouco gives Lastra a hug.

Lastra said, “Welcome to the family.”
