Deep love: insatiable lover

Vanessa looked at the two men who were “fighting” and frowned, saying coldly:

-If you don’t have something important I hope you will leave, I have work to attend to.

-Of course there is something,” Dylan withdrew his eyes and looked at Vanessa. There are some matters to communicate with your company regarding the new SJ project. I apologise for not having an appointment. But apparently Miss Vanessa has a lot of time on her hands right now, doesn’t she?

It was a totally businesslike tone.

Vanessa would have thought he was here on business if it weren’t for the joy in the man’s eyes.

But it was better to face Dylan than Orlando, and she could live with that.

-Let’s go to the conference room and I’ll call the project manager to join us, so it will be easier to discuss any problems.

-Of course.

Dylan nodded with a smile and a gentlemanly, courteous look.

The two were talking back and forth, and it seemed to Orlando that they were having a good time. The thought of Vanessa’s cold face when she confronted him made Orlando more and more resentful.

-Vanessa, we…

-I’m sorry, Mr. Orlando, I have things to do.

Vanessa interrupted Orlando and ignored his look of hurt questioning as she took the lead and left.

If he stayed any longer, she was afraid she would vomit.

-Vanessa! -Orlando tried to chase after him, but was blocked by Dylan. Go away.

Dylan narrowed his eyes, as if not seeing Orlando’s displeasure and dislike, and said indifferently:

-Obviously, Vanessa doesn’t want to see you. Now, let’s get down to business. Of course, there will be the odd personal comment, but it’s none of your business. Orlando, you and Vanessa are divorced, not to mention you’ve done so many things that she won’t be able to forgive you for the rest of her life. So you might as well give up.

-Who are you? Do you need to be in charge of my thing?From NôvelDrama.Org.

Orlando glared angrily at Dylan, certainly not believing that the man was trying to persuade him for his own good. To Orlando, Dylan’s words were more of an insult.

“He wants to laugh at me!”

-Uncle, even though I divorced Vanessa, she was once my wife. In the eyes of others, you are the person who picked up the woman your nephew slept with.

Dylan raised an eyebrow with a straight face.

-Is that so? Unfortunately what others see is not the truth, after all you and Vanessa are married in name only, aren’t you?

That said, Dylan smiled, patted Orlando on the shoulder and turned to leave.

-Shit!

Orlando’s face contorted and he glared viciously at Dylan.

He and Vanessa were a couple, who would have thought they wouldn’t even sleep together? And yet Dylan knew! He could only know something so intimate if Vanessa willingly told him?

The thought of this possibility gnawed at Orlando’s heart with jealousy and resentment.

Had Vanessa’s relationship with Dylan really grown so close, where he didn’t know it?

“No way, no one is going to take Vanessa away from me! I have to speed up.”

In the meeting room.

Everyone was talking business, but Vanessa was stunned. Although she had seen Gerardo for what he was, she had not expected him to be so shameless as to try to take back what he had already exchanged.

Dylan raised an eyebrow and tapped gently on the desk.

Matthew stopped immediately and looked over there.

-Sir?

-Get the men out and continue the discussion elsewhere.

-Yes.

Mateo said nothing and left with the others without saying anything. In an instant, only Dylan and Vanessa were left in the conference room, and she was too stunned to notice.

Until…

-Dylan, what are you doing?

Vanessa pushed her hugger away and looked around in fright, only to realise that she and Dylan were the only ones left in the conference room.

-Where are the people?

-I had them continue the discussion elsewhere while you were in a daze, so as not to disturb us.

-What are you going to do? -asked Vanessa as he moved away from them and put his arms around her.

It was a subconscious defensive action.

-What did Orlando tell you? Why don’t you let me guess,” said Dylan with a smile.

-Heh, you still have to guess, haven’t you already proved it by saying it so blithely?

-Well, it was checked.

Dylan didn’t mind Vanessa’s ruthless interruption and continued to smile openly.

The level of brazenness was evident.

-So, sir, what do you mean again? What do you want to do?

-Darling, you should call me by my name or Dylan. Don’t forget that we are sweethearts now. Well, very intimate like that. We just slept together yesterday, didn’t we?

-…

She really had nothing to say about his level of chutzpah.

-No matter what Gerardo does, I won’t let him go.

-No, baby, you’ve got to fake a little tenderness properly. The poor thing always works, especially for Orlando now.

“Heh, talking about it, but frankly using me.”

Vanessa would never have been able to understand or accept Dylan’s views on relationships.

-In return, I expect you to release me as soon as possible.

Dylan laughed and reached over, cupping Vanessa’s chin so she would look up at him:

-How sad, that you change our relationship.

-You are the one who is trading on your feelings.

Vanessa stared at Dylan and said in a calm tone.

-Very good.

Dylan sighed and suddenly kissed her.

-As you wish.

A smile flickered under Dylan’s eyes. He was a cunning, dark wolf who would never let go of what he had decided. Even if it came by any means.

Unfortunately, Vanessa did not know this.

Orlando was quick to act and the X-Bureau starts looking for trouble with the Cazalla Group, which was irritated but not impulsive when it sensed that Gerardo was secretly going over its head to find someone to push things forward.

Vanessa also followed Dylan’s plan, showing a vulnerable and worried side.

This made Orlando think that his chance had come.

She frequently sought out Vanessa as her resentment towards Gerardo grew.

Beneath the calm surface, there was a dark tide between the grandparents and the grandson that could explode at any moment.

-Vanessa.

Orlando knocked on the door and was both distressed and delighted to see a tired-looking Vanessa.

These days he had relaxed a bit, and at least he could appear at the Cazalla Group, in his office without hindrance.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was a dark and gloomy night.

-I was driving around aimlessly and I didn’t expect to come back to the Cazalla Group, I was downstairs and I saw the lights and immediately a thought told me it was you. So here I am.
