Chapter 73: Taking off the mask
-OK,” Vanessa nodded.
Orlando wanted to stomp the Cazalla Group into the ground so that Vanessa would give up in front of him and beg for it. However, she wasn’t going to let that happen and she was going to shatter his dream.
“Orlando! Fuck off!”
-Well, let’s get it done and don’t keep working overtime. The later you fall asleep, the uglier you get.
Dylan lifted her up looking at her with a mesmerising smile, which she was unable to read his real feelings.
However, Vanessa soon regained her conscience and forced herself to stop thinking about Dylan’s ideas, because this man was too powerful and ambitious. She wanted to get rid of Orlando and spend a quiet life with her parents, so she had to get away from Dylan, who was a thousand times more complicated than Orlando.
-Rest now.
Vanessa frowned at being in such a familiar community and said:
-This is my private flat, nobody knows about it but me.
However, Dylan took her straight to this place without asking any questions.
“How much does he know about me? Doesn’t he even pretend to face me any more after removing his mask?”
-Come in and rest,” Dylan still didn’t answer and his smile was still so soft. Good night, my child.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
In the end, Vanessa decided not to pursue the case further, as it was enough to know that Dylan was not going to harm her. In the worst case scenario, she would sell this flat and secretly buy another one when she no longer needed Dylan.
Dylan sat still in the car, then smiled as he saw the light from Vanessa’s flat window illuminate and drove off in silence.
On the balcony, Vanessa stepped out from behind the curtains that covered her and told herself that this relationship was just a deal with Dylan.
A simple deal.
The next day, Vanessa worked overtime to complete the reports Dylan wanted, including the Cazalla Group’s required background, the projects that were progressing recently, the profits they would earn and even the company’s future plans for the next few years.
Vanessa knew that for Dylan to invest, she needed to make a perfect report.
That same day, Dylan took the reports she had prepared to the company’s executive meeting to be reviewed by the venture capital department. As Dylan had prepared a lot of information on the Cazalla Group in advance, everything went well and the investment plan was approved.
When Dylan told Vanessa the good news, she was still a little overwhelmed.
-Approved?
“I can’t believe it, it’s like a dream.”
The opening of Dylan’s company half a month ago came as a surprise to the entire Pacific City.
Because it was the SJ Group! SJ!
The SJ Group had been founded on the famous Wall Street in the United States and was a huge financial company that occupied an entire floor in the central part of that luxurious area.
Although the Pacific City was one of the best cities nationally, but it still seemed too tiny.
Because SJ Group was already a legend in the financial world! It was so surprising that such a legendary company belonged to Dylan Moya.
Although Dylan was said to have founded the SJ Group in the United States with other collaborators, the new SJ Group was created by Dylan himself.
Gerardo and Orlando’s reaction was so evident that Vanessa immediately came to mind. They seemed apparently happy, but in reality they were alerted as if they had seen a large predator.
-Are you happy?
-Yes, I am very happy.
-And you’re so happy about a ten million investment?
In Dylan’s case, that figure did not even cover his personal assets. Moreover, the value of the SJ Group was incalculable.
-I’m not greedy, I’m happy with the amount I want. Dylan, thank you very much.
-What do you have to call me?
-OK, Dylan. Thank you, Dylan.
With this strong backing, Vanessa would no longer fear Orlando, but neither would she let her guard down and put all her hopes in Dylan because her pride would not allow her to depend on others.
-I will pay you back this ten million as soon as possible, together with interest.
-All right.
The two said nothing more off topic and hung up the call.
Later, Vanessa called Enrique at the office and told him this great news.
-The SJ Group? Are they really going to help us?
-I’ll sign the contract tomorrow. Don’t you believe it?
-Yes, it’s like an unreal dream.
Because there were thousands of people struggling to collaborate with the SJ Group, the Cazalla Group was so lucky!
-Well, the biggest problem is solved, the next step is to plan the projects. Enrique, we can make a perfect plan, because we are not short of funds now.
-Yes, let’s definitely prepare the most perfect plan.
The two looked at each other and smiled, because they were very hopeful for the future.
The shortfall of financial funds had been a secret from the beginning and the SJ Group’s investment was also a secret. As a result, Orlando’s spy could only learn that the Cazalla Group’s crisis had been overcome.
-What? This can’t be! -shouted Orlando with a grim face.
He had warned all the banks in the Pacific City not to lend to the Cazalla Group and to flee from Vanessa.
“How can you get so much investment?
-Are you sure? -Orlando asked again, because he couldn’t believe it.
However, the other promised the veracity of his information. Then Orlando hung up the call and began to furiously smash things in the office out of anger.
-Damn it!
As Orlando’s illusion failed, he was so depressed that he didn’t want to continue working and went to the bar to drink. He had to think of another way to create a crisis in the Cazalla Group as soon as possible in order to destroy it. What would be the opportunity?
Orlando drank into the night and got drunk. He held a pretty girl in his arms, who sat coyly on top of him and she wrapped her whitish arms around him to press her plump tits against Orlando.
-Mr. Orlando,” said the girl in a very sweet voice.
However, Orlando was thinking about Vanessa and lifted the girl’s chin, saying furiously:
-You don’t look anything like her!
Then, as the girl was seducing him with her fingers, Orlando suddenly grabbed her hair and threw her to the ground.
-Get out! -Orlando growled.
