Chapter 27: Giving me a gift after hurting me
-Well, could you give me a lift?
When Vanessa finished speaking, she rolled down the window and her smile disappeared when she saw Dylan’s face.
-Why is it you?!
-So you’re not going to get in the car?
-Of course it is.
Vanessa no longer cared about her damn pride, because her feet hurt and it was almost eleven o’clock, it would be dangerous for a girl to be left alone in the street. So she went to open the car door in the back seat, but it wouldn’t open.
-Dylan, open the door.
-Sit next to me, I’m not your driver.
Vanessa had to give in, because he was asking for help and she opened the passenger door in disgust, but it was also locked.
-Are you kidding me?
-What do you have to call me?
-Titus.
-Smart girl, don’t make me say it again.
That said, the car door opened automatically. And Vanessa stealthily gave him the evil eye as she got into the car.
“Why do you insist so much on the nickname? Does calling him Dylan excite you because it’s a forbidden relationship?”
-What are you doing? -she asked nervously.
Vanessa looked at Dylan who was getting close enough to crash their lips together. Besides, Dylan’s perfume, she had remembered, smelled so good that it made her heart beat faster and Vanessa was too embarrassed to be feeling that way about him.
Seeing that his kitten was so alert, Dylan laughed and walked away after buckling his seatbelt.
-What’s the matter, you think I’m going to kiss you?
-Don’t make a fool of yourself! I am not like you.
-Well, I’m the one making a fool of myself.
When Dylan finished speaking, he suddenly pulled her close again and kissed her deeply, holding her head. The kiss seemed very wild, but it fell softly on her lips.
-Ah!
Vanessa’s eyes widened, and she tried to resist, but Dylan quickly grabbed her hands. Vanessa could no longer escape and had to let Dylan do what he wanted.
As soon as the kiss was over, Vanessa took a sharp breath of fresh air, for she almost suffocated.
-Dylan, don’t go too far, please! -said Vanessa, gritting her teeth.
-It’s because you’re seducing me.
-Liar!
“Am I crazy enough to seduce a demon like Dylan?”
Dylan laughed and said:
-Your face, your expressions and your movements seduce me.
Vanessa was unable to refute his amorous declarations, so she ignored him and pretended to be asleep.
Fortunately, Dylan did nothing more and started the car. Then, so much time passed that Vanessa thought Dylan was going to be silent for the whole journey and he suddenly spoke.
-Orlando left you on the street? -said Dylan with a mocking tone.
Vanessa felt embarrassed and said “yes” in a very low voice, looking out of the window. Really, there was nothing to hide because he was astute and had it all figured out.
-How cruel!
Although the old quarter atmosphere was good, it was remote and unsafe in the evening.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Vanessa stood quietly looking out the window until they were two streets away from the Villa Real, and asked Dylan to stop.
-Beg me.
Vanessa glared at Dylan angrily, but he smiled with no intention of giving in. Finally, Vanessa had to give in and pleaded irritably:
-Dylan, please.
-Not suitable, you have to be more persuasive.
-Dylan, I beg you, let me get off, please. If you go on, we’ll reach the Villa Real and it’s not good for them to see us.
When the car stopped, Vanessa quickly got out.
-Dylan Moya! -Vanessa raised her middle finger to him and left happily.
Dylan froze for a moment, then smiled and in a low voice said:
-How beautiful!
“My kitty is so cute, I’d like to kidnap her and stalk her right now. Never mind, we still have time…”
Dylan left.
It took Vanessa about fifteen minutes to walk to the Villa Real and it was almost twelve o’clock.
Opening the door, Vanessa saw Orlando sitting in the living room, and went straight upstairs.
-Stand up! -Orlando stood up and approached.
-What’s going on?
She was already tired after all this, she just wanted to take a bath and sleep, so she didn’t show much patience with Orlando.
-It only takes an hour at most to get back from the old town. What have you done in between?
-Do you want to know? -Vanessa laughed mockingly and said. Well, find out for yourself.
-Orlando grabbed her hand and wouldn’t let go until she made it clear.
-Orlando, you left me stranded in an area where few taxis pass, at nine o’clock at night. Where do you think I could have gone? Don’t you think you’ve gone too far? And you’ve come to interrogate me? You don’t know that I waited forty minutes for a taxi, but nobody came and my mobile phone battery ran out. If it wasn’t for a nice driver to take me, I’d still be lost in the street!
“Does this man care about me at all?”
Vanessa coldly dropped Orlando’s hand and walked away, leaving Orlando stunned.
Boom!
Vanessa laughed when she heard the door slam, she would rather Orlando never came back so she wouldn’t have to face his interrogations, because she was already tired of these endless discussions.
Unexpectedly, Orlando returned when Vanessa had finished showering and placed the dinner he had bought on the bedside table stiffly.
-I brought you some dinner.
-¿Y? -Vanessa said sarcastically, “So I should be grateful for it? Orlando, do you think it’s funny to give me a present after hurting me?
“It’s already too late!
-Do what you want.
Actually, Orlando had felt guilty after hearing Vanessa’s words. And when he left the house he saw that the restaurant she liked was still open, so he went to buy his favourite food with an inexplicable feeling.
Orlando had imagined that Vanessa would thank him, but he had not expected to receive her criticism. In that way, all his actions seemed to have become a gesture of goodwill to Vanessa and that made Orlando even more irritated.
However, Vanessa’s indifferent face blocked Orlando’s words and he left in disgust without returning that night.
In the end, Vanessa did not eat that dinner, but threw it straight into the rubbish.
