Chapter 70: “Holding on” tighter
-Go away! -Orlando scolded in a low voice, but Enrique stayed in his place without moving.
-Enrique, wait for me in the car.
Vanessa took the key out of the car and handed it to Enrique so that he could go first. Enrique looked at Vanessa with concern, but had to leave when he saw her so determined.
-We don’t have much time left, you have to hurry.
-Okay.
When Enrique left, Vanessa looked at Orlando and lifted her chin, showing her pride and that she would not give in to this man.
-Didn’t grandfather warn you not to bother me? -said Vanessa without fear of Orlando’s anger.
-I have already kicked Melina out.
-Yes, you threw her out, that’s why she returned to the Cazalla family.
“It turns out that Melina came home because Orlando had kicked her out and she’s so stupid that she kept provoking me.
-If you don’t want to see her, I can kick her out of Peaceful City.
-It’s not necessary, I don’t need Mr. Orlando to do anything to me.
“He’s come to apologise and please me? How funny!” thought Vanessa.
-Vanessa, don’t go too far.
-Over the line? Mr. Orlando, you think it’s not enough that I put up with your betrayals and, am I already out of line if I tell you that I don’t need you to do anything to me? -said Vanessa sarcastically, she really didn’t understand what this man was thinking.
He was the one who betrayed her marriage and kept bothering her.
-No more contact with Melina, is that enough for you?
-Do you think I only care about Melina? What you shouldn’t do is bring my parents into this. Orlando, I will never forgive you, ever.
-What more do you want? Vanessa, it was you who betrayed me before!
-Me? You say I betrayed you first, what evidence do you have? You can’t judge me just like that.
Vanessa was even angrier about this, because she had no idea what mistake she had made.
-Orlando, the only thing I did wrong was to love you and marry you. If I could go back in time, I’d rather never meet you! -said Vanessa through gritted teeth, and with every word she said there was a deep hatred for this man.
Having said this, Vanessa drove straight away at a fast pace without paying any more attention to Orlando. By the time Orlando reacted, Vanessa’s car had driven away.
However, Vanessa’s words were going around in his mind and Orlando made a more unexpected decision.
-Vanessa, you regret meeting me, but I’ll hold you tighter. Don’t think of getting rid of me, ever! -Orlando muttered with a crooked smile and called Paco. Find out who Vanessa is having dinner with tonight.
In the restaurant, Vanessa and the ABA manager had a great chat.
However, before learning that Vanessa owned 1% of Grupo Moya’s shares, this manager had refused to see her on several occasions, even when Vanessa sought him out in person.
At that time, the Cazalla Group was a company in decline that nobody wanted to throw money into the water, but now it was different, because 1% of Grupo Moya’s shares was a lot and cooperating with such a powerful company was also a good thing for his bank.
So, the manager dealt very actively with Vanessa. She was not very experienced, but she had good emotional control and was used to dealing with these hypocritical people like him.
After dinner, general cooperation was reached.
-Director Vanessa, you are a talented young woman and the Cazalla Group will improve under your leadership.
-Thank you very much, but I am still a newcomer and still have a lot to learn. I would be very grateful if the Cazalla Group could overcome this crisis.
-Nothing, banks and companies always have a mutual benefit. When business improves, banks can earn more, right?
Both sides chatted happily and were satisfied with the negotiation.
After Vanessa escorted the manager to the car, she stopped smiling and said:
-It hurts my face to keep smiling for so long!
Enrique laughed at his words and said:
-You have done very well, I trust you will be able to manage the business well on your own account. Mr. Philip will be very proud of himself, I’m sure, eh? Cheer up!
-It’s getting late, I’ll take you back.
Enrique drank a lot with Vanessa’s manager, he was already a bit drunk. Vanessa was worried and wanted to send him back first.
-It’s all right, I’ll take a taxi. It’s a tiring day, come back early to rest,” said Enrique and continued after a pause. Are you dizzy? Do you need me to call a driver for you?
-No, I only drank a little bit.
Vanessa smiled and shook her head.
-Well, I’m going first.
Enrique smiled at her, then stopped a taxi on the way, said goodbye to Vanessa and got in with his documents. At last the Cazalla Group’s financing problem was solved, it was the thing Vanessa was most happy about these days and she was quite relieved.
She walked happily to the car and unexpectedly saw a very familiar car. When she rolled down the window, Vanessa found Dylan’s beautiful face and wondered why he was here.
-Come here.
His feral kitty always widened her eyes at the sight of him and her expression of surprise was so cute that it fascinated Dylan.
Vanessa looked around quickly, then approached and asked:
-Why are you here? Don’t tell me it’s a coincidence.
-Of course not,” Dylan admitted he had come for Vanessa and blocked Vanessa’s criticism. Get in the car and I’ll drive you back.
-I have a car.
Dylan pulled out his phone in front of Vanessa and called Felipe:
-Hi Felipe, it’s me. Nothing, I just saw Vanessa and I’m going to take her back because she’s had a bit to drink. Yes, don’t worry.
Vanessa was stunned after listening to the whole conversation and was speechless.
-Did you call… my dad?
Sure,” Dylan replied matter-of-factly.
Vanessa was going to be furious.
-How can you do whatever you want, you idiot!This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
-Come on, get in the car,” Dylan spoke softly, but his gaze was firm.
Vanessa knew she couldn’t get away, so she sat in the car angrily and the car started immediately.
-My car!
-Don’t worry, he’ll bring it back to you.
