Deep love: insatiable lover

Orlando’s call came later.

Vanessa wondered if the uncle and nephew had agreed that one would hang up and the other would call. Annoyed, she put the phone away and, as she had done with Dylan, didn’t answer. It was obvious they were family, so soon Orlando sent a text message as well.

-Vanessa, I can help you.

“Help? What a ridiculous word, has he forgotten that it was he who made me.”

Vanessa absent-mindedly closed the folder in her hand and smiled bitterly, turning the phone over and placing it face down on the desk.

Towards evening Enrique arrived at Cazalla’s house with the latest bad news.

-We have sued the platforms that distributed the photos and asked them to take them down, but none of them have cooperated. They are being very aggressive and trying to sue us at will. Also, the company’s shares have been falling all day today, and the gossip continues. vanessa, you shouldn’t go to the company lately either, there are a lot of journalists around, and it worries me….

-I’ve got it,” Vanessa replied more calmly than Henry thought she would.

-On this side of the family, don’t let your aunt out either, I’m worried about her health.

-Don’t worry, I won’t let my mum out either,” Vanessa looked at Enrique with a grateful face, “It’s been a hard time for you.

-It’s nothing. Well, these documents are quite urgent, so you should hurry up and get them processed. I’m going to go back first, there are still some things to attend to at the company.

-Well, take care of yourself on the road.

After saying goodbye to Enrique, Vanessa turned to see a worried Mercedes.

His mood was bad and visible to the naked eye.

Vanessa was filled with guilt for having made Mercedes worry after all. She fought against the acidity in her nose, took Mercedes’ arm in her stride and said with a forced smile, “Mom, how are you feeling today? Are you okay?

-Vanessa, about the photo, is it solved? -asked Mercedes anxiously as she looked at her daughter, who had lost a lot of weight.

As long as this issue remained unresolved, she could not rest easy. When she thought about her child being abused by those people on the internet and saying those nasty things, she couldn’t help but feel angry and heartbroken.

-It’s OK, he’ll take care of it.

Mercedes frowned and said:

-Can you really stand that? Mum doesn’t understand these things, though….

-How could I have lied to you.

Vanessa tried to smile easily and pretend it wasn’t so. She helped Mercedes sit up and leaned petulantly on her shoulder.

-Don’t worry, I’m good at this and I’ll take care of it in no time.

There was no better way to get to know a daughter than her mother.

How could Mercedes not see Vanessa’s strength and stroked her hair affectionately?

-Oh Vanessa, if you can’t, go and get help.

-What?

-Go seek Dylan’s help, he is not like that negative man Orlando, although he is also from the Moya family. The fact that your father liked to trust him so much when he was alive shows that he is good. Get his help and things will surely be resolved soon.

-Mum, how did you…

-Silly girl, do you think Dylan is also from the Moya family so I must be unhappy if you’re going to ask him for help? What a silly girl. You are my daughter and I certainly want you to have a safe and prosperous life compared to other things.

Vanessa’s mind was scrambled, knowing that Mercedes had offered to go with Dylan because of her trust in her father. She decided to trust him because he was the man Papa had looked up to, not because of her own shady relationship with Dylan, but she still felt panic and fear.

In case mum finds out one day….

-Vanessa, what’s wrong? What are you thinking, with that pale face?

-No.

Vanessa quickly decided that she wasn’t going to ask for Dylan’s help. She didn’t want to wait for the day when her old relationship with Dylan would come to light and her mum would find out that she would probably regret asking Dylan for help today, so she wouldn’t consider it.

-Mum, I don’t need Dylan’s help, I can handle it.

Vanessa smiled, and seeing her insistence, Mercedes couldn’t say much more.

I only secretly decided to wait until tomorrow to find a way to contact Dylan myself and ask for his help.

The next day, Mercedes hid from Vanessa and asked her driver, Lao Zhang, to take her to the SJ Group.

Hearing that Mercedes had come to see her and was downstairs in the office, Dylan thought nothing of getting up and striding out of the office. When he was in the corridor, he looked up again, his thin lips pressed together.

-Mateo, go down and get Mrs. Cazalla.

-Good.

Dylan finished and went back to his office, holding back all his emotions as he waited for Mercedes to come upstairs.

-Please don’t be offended if I take the liberty of visiting you.

-How.

Dylan got up and joined Mercedes on the couch while Mateo went out to make a cup of floral tea and brought it over, placing it in front of Mercedes.

-Thank you.

Mercedes looks thin and has an unhealthy, sickly look on her face, but she is expensive and unapproachable in both dress and bearing. Sitting upright, she is a true noblewoman.

-Mr Dylan, I have come today to ask you for a blatant favour.

For Vanessa, Mercedes took a risk.

She could not bear the thought of her daughter having to endure the false accusations and abuse, and was even more distressed because she did not want to seek Dylan’s help in consideration of her feelings, so she came in person.

For her daughter’s sake, she was prepared to make a low gesture to a subordinate.

-Whatever you want, I’ll help you if I can.

-Then I will thank you in advance.

Mercedes smiled softly and sighed before saying:

-I think you know what I’m asking, and I’m not going to sell it to you, Mr. Dylan, I hope this time you’ll help Vanessa for the sake of her late husband. The boy, he’s very tough.

With that, Mercedes almost shed a tear.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

-Don’t worry, I’ll do what I can.

-Thank you.

Mercedes looked at Dylan gratefully, her eyes full of pleasure.

Dismissing Mercedes, Dylan stood for a long time in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. The tall, erect figure stood tall as a pine tree, hands in his trouser pockets, his whole being shrouded in a shadowy aura.

After a few moments, Dylan turned away.

Returning to his desk, he hung up the intercom for Mateo.

-Get in touch with someone and take care of this as soon as possible.

Mateo’s answer came through the receiver and the phone was hung up.

That night, information began to circulate on the Internet. About the photo, about the illegitimate daughter of the Cazalla family. More and more informants jumped on the bandwagon and declared that the photo is a mystery.

The explicit and implicit accusation that the person in the photo is actually Melina and not Vanessa.

The illegitimate daughter was jealous of her sister, who had been born into a life of luxury, righteousness and love, so she devised a vicious plan.

Taking advantage of their seven-point resemblance, they dress up as their sister every day and hang out in bars, hitting on all kinds of men just to discredit their sister.
