Deep love: insatiable lover

-Good girl, you don’t need to comfort me, don’t worry about me, I’m fine.

Mercedes knew what Vanessa meant, smiled and patted her daughter’s hand calmly. Her eyes were loving and calm when she was with her daughter.

-We are no longer young. It’s normal for our physical conditions to worsen. I had already prepared myself mentally when I heard that your father was suffering from cancer, but I didn’t expect… I didn’t expect to get to this point so soon…

Mercedes sighed softly and seemed to lose some energy.

-Mum.

Vanessa spoke, her voice shaking heavily. She panicked and wanted to find a place where there was no one to burst into tears, but she couldn’t do it.

-Good girl, I’m fine, don’t worry. It’s just that you’ve suffered a lot. Your father is like this and my health is not good either. The company… Vanessa, what do you think about selling the company? I don’t want to see you suffer so much.

-No, I will not sell the company. That’s the fruit of dad’s life’s work, I want to protect it!

Vanessa was stubborn and unwilling to give in. Mercedes knew her daughter’s temperament and knew it was useless to persuade her, so she stopped talking about it.

-Good girl.

Mercedes seemed to have lost the ability to speak, because she kept saying two words over and over again: “good girl”. She grabbed Vanessa’s hand to speak to her, but she seemed dazed and didn’t know where to focus her attention.

Vanessa knew that, even if she calmly said she was ready for the day, she could not really accept such an outcome at all.

Her mother only made her feel guiltier and made her hate Orlando even more.

In the end, Vanessa went to the company, she couldn’t leave Enrique to run the Cazalla Group alone.

-Director Vanessa, this is part of the resignation letters of senior staff.

-Didn’t I say that whoever wanted to leave, let them go?Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

-But these people’s jobs are very important. If they really resign, they will cause huge losses in the company’s operations. So I could only temporarily withhold resignation letters on the grounds that only you can approve their resignations.

That would only slow the situation down in the short term, it was not a long-term solution.

Vanessa took those resignation letters, opened them one by one and read them carefully. In fact, the positions of these people were not low and their resignation would be tantamount to the collapse of half of the Cazalla Group’s business.

But even so, Vanessa would not stoop to demand that they stay.

-I approve all letters of resignation, but tell them they have to pay the penalty for early termination.

-Director Vanessa, do you approve without further ado?

Enrique thought Vanessa would have a way to retain these people when she returned to the company, but he didn’t expect her to approve so simply. He was really worried about the Cazalla Group, so he couldn’t help but confirm his decision by asking her again, wanting to persuade her to think again.

-I approve, why wouldn’t I approve? If they want to leave, I would never keep them. Those riff-raff who only care about themselves at a critical moment, even if I kept them today, they would only become an obstacle to the Cazalla Group in the future,” said Vanessa, pursing her lips coolly.

-OK, I understand,” Enrique nodded and turned to leave with the resignation letters.

-Enrique,” the girl spoke suddenly, and the secretary stopped and looked at her.

-Director Vanessa, are there any further instructions?

-Sort the list of all the people who have recently resigned and post them on the company’s homepage.

Those people who chose to leave at that crucial moment, the purpose behind it could not be clearer. Vanessa did not blame anyone for deciding to leave for their own good, but she would not allow those people to look for a better job for the future by using the fame of Grupo Cazalla!

He decided to publish the list so that all the companies in the Pacific City could clearly see what they were doing. If at a time of crisis that the Cazalla Group was going through they could choose to leave, the other companies could find themselves in the same situation in the future.

What company could trust and hire such employees who at any moment would leave the company at a bad time?

In doing so, Vanessa would not only teach a lesson to those who had left, but also a warning to the employees who remained in the company. Yes, they could choose to leave, but they should consider whether they could get the same position if they resigned from the Cazalla Group.

To stay in the Cazalla Group and overcome the difficulties together and get a higher and better position in the future, or to resign and let the top position of your career end in the Cazalla Group forever for your own temporary benefit?

Smart people knew how to choose.

Thinking of the girl’s purpose, Henry could not help but smile in relief.

-Director Vanessa. To be honest, I was disappointed when I heard that she agreed to the resignation of these people without hesitation, and I felt that she was not a qualified director. But I didn’t expect… that she would be so decisive and wise. In this period of time she has grown a lot.

-The family and the Cazalla Group depend on me. So how could I not grow up as soon as possible?

Vanessa smiled, presenting a firm look.

-I trust you, Director Vanessa.

-Thank you, Enrique.

The two looked at each other and smiled determinedly, both with confidence in their eyes.

It’s OK if you stumble, you just have to get up again. You get richer and stronger in setbacks. Like Felipe Cazalla’s daughter, how could she be so easily knocked down?

From that day on, Vanessa began a life between the company, the house and the hospital.

She no longer thought of contacting Dylan for back-up and support, but chose to be independent. No matter how hard it was, he would grit his teeth and stick it out.

Good luck favours those who work hard.

After several relapse treatments, Felipe’s condition was miraculously brought under control and gradually stabilised. He had been moved from the ICU to a normal ward, but was still weak.

Even so, Mercedes and Vanessa almost cried with joy, thinking that she would definitely get better and better.

Mother and daughter shared the same expectations, with a smile on their faces, as if a good future was not too far away.

Melina feared all this the most.

I had always thought Philip would die in some rescue, but I had not expected the old man’s vitality to be so tenacious. Now he was even out of danger and woke up from time to time.

It was just that he could not yet speak, that he could only open his eyes and move his eyeballs or his fingers.

But who could guarantee that he wouldn’t suddenly start talking?

Besides, Melina couldn’t be sure if she was pregnant or not. If Felipe told Vanessa everything….

“No, no! I have to do something about it!”

Melina bit her nails, thinking malevolently.

She began to frequent the hospital, pretending to be worried about her father, but in reality she was looking for opportunities to put her plan into action.

On the third day of Felipe’s improved condition, Melina finally found her chance.

That day, Mercedes was not feeling well, so Vanessa persuaded her to go and rest. The doctor in charge of Felipe just had to talk to Vanessa and she asked the nurse to stay and take care of her father. She then went to the doctor’s office alone.
