Lorenzo Cried
Not long after, the call ended. Lorenzo’s mother immediately looked for Lorenzo’s contact details and called Lorenzo.
“Hi, Lorenzo!” Lorenzo’s mother greeted him in a flat and cold tone.
“Hi, Mom! What’s wrong?” asked Lorenzo in confusion, as his mother didn’t usually speak in such a tone.
“I want to meet you tomorrow at lunchtime at the Lyero Casino Bar. Can you meet me?” asked Lorenzo’s mother.
“Yes, I can, Mom,” Lorenzo answered.
“But, Mom, what’s wrong with you that you want to ask me to meet you like this?” asked Lorenzo again, confused.
“I want to talk to you about something important,” Lorenzo’s mother said.
“What’s, Mom?” Lorenzo wanted to know what his mom was going to say.
“I’m disappointed in you, Lorenzo.”
“Why, Mom?” Lorenzo was confused by his mom’s disappointment.
“I’m disappointed with your decision and your performance, Lorenzo. You fired Rose just for Blanca’s sake without asking my opinion and holding a meeting.”
“I feel worthless and disregarded, Lorenzo. You’re the co-founder of Sans Group, and you’re just the CEO.” Lorenzo’s mother expressed her disappointment.
“I’m sorry, Mom. It’s because…” Lorenzo wanted to explain his reasoning, but she already cut off his words.
“You can’t fire Rose anyway. She’s the best-performing employee in the Sans Group.”
“She’s a very valuable asset to any company. Many people are eyeing her to hire her for their company.”
“You should take good care of her so that you don’t let any rival company hire her and work with her. Her own parents have been working and building Sans Group since Sans Group began.”
“But instead, you fired her just because of Blanca. That’s a stupid act of futility, Lorenzo,” Lorenzo’s mother scoffed.
“It’s for Blanca’s safety, Mom.” Lorenzo immediately argued.
“Blanca is the only thing on your mind, Lorenzo! Business, profit, money, and company are not on your mind!”
“Will Blanca love you if you’re poor? Huh?” asked Lorenzo’s mother in annoyance.
“I’m so sure she will choose your brother if you’re poor, Lorenzo! Just because you’re richer than your brother, that’s why Blanca wants you and loves you!” Lorenzo’s mother got mad again.
“But, Mom…” Lorenzo wanted to argue, but his words were cut off again.
“We’ll talk about it at lunch tomorrow,” Lorenzo’s mother replied. Not long after, the call ended.
Lorenzo immediately started complaining and banging on the wall. He vented his anger there, because he felt very disappointed and very angry with his mother.
“Money! Money! Money is all that’s on my mother’s mind.”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“When does she think about Blanca’s safety and other things? When?”
“When does she care about Blanca’s safety and love for her? When?”
“When it comes to Rose, my mom is always defending her! What’s wrong with you, Mom, that you’re defending Rose so much?”
At that moment, Blanca, who saw Lorenzo’s behavior and heard Lorenzo’s anger, was shocked. Her heart was beating wildly.
It’s the first time in her life that she has ever heard Lorenzo so angry. Suddenly, she asked in her heart. “What’s wrong?”
She immediately ran to Lorenzo to find out what was going on. She was very worried and very afraid that something bad had happened to Lorenzo that had caused this.
When she got there, she saw Lorenzo, who was still banging on the walls. She immediately asked. “What’s wrong, honey?”
Lorenzo’s temper subsided. He immediately stopped his banging behavior.
After that, Lorenzo walked over to Blanca and hugged her. Then, he cried in Blanca’s hug.
Blanca was very confused by Lorenzo’s sudden crying behavior in her arms. In her entire life, she has only seen the great man, whom she loves so much and thinks is the greatest man in the world, crying in her hug.
She immediately patted Lorenzo’s shoulder. Then she frowned and asked. “What’s wrong, honey?”
“Why doesn’t my mother ever love you? Why?”
“I’ve worked so hard to convince my parents that you’re kind and you’re a good wife for me. Why?”
“Why didn’t they approve our relationship until now? Why?”
“What did you do wrong? What?”
Lorenzo wants to know what Blanca has done wrong in the past. Any mistake that Blanca has made, he will take the effect of as long as he can tolerate it.
“I’m too tired to find out all this stuff. I’m tired!”
Lorenzo complained. He was too tired to find out everything.
“I’ve paid for spying on and stalking you, but I can’t find any compelling reason why you should be rejected by them. Why, exactly, are they like that to you?”
“Why? Because you’re not rich, huh?”
“Why do they keep thinking of money? Why?”
Lorenzo let go of the hug a little. He looked Blanca straight in the eye.
“What sins and faults did you commit in the past, darling? Please tell me!”
Seeing that, Blanca immediately said so in her heart. “I think I have to talk to Lorenzo about all this. I can’t bear to see him cry so much.”
Blanca’s heart melted. She couldn’t bear to see Lorenzo having such a hard time knowing everything.
Blanca wanted to tell him everything because she felt sorry for Lorenzo, who looked so tired that he was crying in her arms. She was about to tell him everything.
She took a breath and mentally prepared herself to tell him everything. However, just as she was about to say a word, Lorenzo hugged Blanca again and said.
“I’ve done everything, but nothing. I’m tired, Blanca!”
“Our relationship was never approved. I thought that once we got married, our lives would be as happy as those of princes and princesses in the movies.”
“But the facts? Nothing!”
Blanca immediately asked. “Indeed, what’s happened?”
Lorenzo immediately told her everything. Knowing that story, Blanca wanted to cry but tried to hold back her tears.
She looked around and focused on her surroundings. She inhaled and exhaled her breath repeatedly.
She also bit her lip so that her sadness would be replaced by the pain that she experienced from her bite. In her heart, she said.
“I’m sorry, Lorenzo! I’m sorry!”
“I’m the one who wants so much to be with you and accept your love. I should never have accepted your love, and I should have had an affair with you before. So, you will never suffer like this.”
“I’m sorry, Lorenzo! I can’t tell you everything yet.”
“I hope you’ll find out about it later!” Blanca said it in her heart, hopefully.
When Lorenzo finished speaking, Blanca said. “Hmmh… I see.”
“Well! Let me get you a glass of aromatic tea and some chocolates to make you relax!”
“Okay,” said Lorenzo.
Blanca went straight to the kitchen. She made some aromatic tea there. Afterwards, she brought a glass of aromatic tea and some chocolates to Lorenzo.
She said. “Here are the aromatic tea and chocolate! Don’t think about that again!”
“Thank you!”
Lorenzo immediately accepted. He started drinking the aromatic tea and eating the chocolates that are believed to make everyone feel calm and happy again.
“The important thing is that we are now married and we are happy. If you say that you’re tired, actually I’m tired, but you said that we would face the problems together, right?”
Lorenzo just nodded his head while he wiped away the tears that had started to stop. He began to smile.
“We’ve agreed to do it all together. So, we have to do it and get through it together.”
“Cheer up, Lorenzo!” Blanca encouraged Lorenzo.
“Cheer up too, Blanca!” Lorenzo encouraged Blanca.
