Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 414: Living together



Dylan’s breathing became a little slower, but deeper.

-In return, Senor Vicente, I have given the Leoz family more than enough in return. I have already repaid the kindness you have shown me, and even the help you have given the Leoz family since then. It is you who are too insatiable and that is what has made it impossible to maintain even the most superficial peace in our relationship.

Vincent was rebuffed and could not say a word of the rest of his sentence.

His face was grim, and the idea that Dylan had dared to threaten him made her want to kill him for a moment.

But it was no longer Vincent at the top of the pyramid, and the young man he had thought he had always held in his hands had risen to a height beyond his reach.

He could do nothing but compromise.

For the Leoz family, he said.

-I promise not to meddle in your affairs with that woman, and you will leave the Leoz family alone.

Even when he was at a disadvantage, Vincent never bowed his noble head. Even when begging Dylan, he had to adopt a posture of superiority.

At this, Dylan’s heart filled with derision.

-I promise.

The Leoz family was now on the verge of total destruction, and even if it was preserved now, it would deteriorate in the future.

Vincent had never in his life had an heir fit enough to carry the burden of the Leoz family.

Honestly, how long will Vincent live?

-I hope you remember today’s words.

-Mr. Vincent, remember your own promise, and I will remember my own words.

The phone hung up.

-Damn it!

Vincent cursed under his breath, and even hung up the phone.

His chest heaved violently and it seemed that he would soon run out of breath.

-Sir, sir, sir, calm down.

Carlos hurried to stand behind Vicente and slapped him on the back.

-My lord, you have a drink of water.

Carlos poured the water and waited for Vincent to drink it before he was completely relieved.

At the time, Vincent seemed to have aged much older.

-Don’t my two bastard sons realise their mistake yet?

Carlos seemed to hesitate, not knowing what to say.

Seeing the look on his face, Vincent already knew the answer.

While he was resigned to the fact that they had him over Dylan, he couldn’t help the fact that he had no one around him who could stand up to him.

If it goes into irons, it will only accelerate the downfall of the Leoz family.

-Call lawyer Barrios and tell my two sons to come, by the way.

-Sir, you…

-The Leoz family can no longer be dragged down by them.

At least he had a grandson who could be useful to him, and if he retrained and trained them himself, the Leoz family would have a successor when he really didn’t have the energy to run the company.

I didn’t want to make the Leoz family brighter, I just wanted to prevent it from declining.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Looking into Vincent’s determined eyes, Charles knew he had made up his mind.

At the thought of what the two young teachers had done, Carlos sighed inwardly.

She was so intelligent and capable, but how could she have two such useless children.

If they had not been useless, how could Mr Vicente…

Oops.

Carlos sighed inwardly and turned back to the phone.

Later, in front of his children, Vicente had his lawyer read out the division of the inheritance he had previously drawn up, and had the two sons removed from the Leoz family, regaining their rights. But none of this worried Dylan.

Dylan was relieved to hear from Mateo about the Leoz family’s situation.

Although Vincent was cooperative, he could not let his guard down completely.

Until I could be sure that Vincent would not try to get his hands on Vanessa again, he would have to be watched closely.

When Dylan had been in the hospital for a month, Vanessa’s belly got a little bigger.

The foetus was almost five months old.

-When are you going to be discharged?

The doctor had said that Dylan was recovering well enough that further hospitalisation was not necessary.

-Can I go and stay at the inn?

Vanessa didn’t look up and said coldly.

-We do not have a room available.

-Then you can stay with me, I can buy a house near the inn.

-It’s not necessary, I have a place to stay.

-Vanessa, I know you don’t want to see me, but the baby needs me. Even if it’s still in your womb, it still needs access to its father.

She knew Vanessa cared about her son and would probably say yes when she heard him say that.

Vanessa was really undecided.

-Where have you heard all this?

-I have checked the information, and although the child is still in your womb it has a sense of the outside world. Apart from the mother who conceived it, if the father speaks regularly to the foetus, the foetus will also develop a sense of familiarity with the father.

Dylan responded with a solemn look on his face, even though he had basically made all this up.

Vanessa frowned and, surprisingly, began to think about Dylan’s words.

They say that pregnant women get dumber, and that’s what Vanessa is now.

-So, for the sake of the baby, we have to live together.

It was true what Vanessa had said about there being no rooms available at the inn, if Dylan was going to stay at the inn he would have to sleep in the same room as Vanessa and she didn’t want that at all. But if he stayed outside, his mother would be the only one left at the inn.

As if seeing his dilemma, Dylan said.

-Josephine will stay at the inn with your mother, and we will only stay together at night, you can still go to the inn and stay with your mother during the day.

First give in and give Vanessa enough freedom, and then invade her life a little.

By the time Vanessa realised it, she had long since become accustomed to Dylan’s presence.

Once you get used to something or someone, you become unconsciously dependent on it.

What Dylan wanted was for Vanessa to depend on him.

He was willing to make her dependent.

-I will think about it.

Vanessa didn’t say yes, but she didn’t reject it outright either.

Dylan changed the subject in time, choosing child-related topics specifically to talk to Vanessa. As he expected, Vanessa did not leave or get bored, and was even positive about talking to him.

The baby was the only thing that brought them together.

At the inn.

-Are you moving in with Dylan?

Mercedes looked at Vanessa in surprise; she had not expected the daughter who had been so determined to leave Peaceful City and move away from Dylan, even at the risk of selling the company, to offer to live with Dylan.
