Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 12: Making fun of Melina



-Jaime, has Dylan given notice of his return?

Orlando had gone to the airport to pick up Dylan that morning, but Dylan went somewhere else halfway, and Orlando returned alone. It was less than an hour before the banquet was due to start and the main character of the dinner was still not there.

Vanessa had Dylan’s phone number, but she didn’t want to call him.

-Mrs. Vanessa, don’t worry, I’ll call Mr. Dylan,” said Jaime and turned to make the call.

-Mr Dylan says he has something pending, but he will be back before the banquet starts.

Vanessa nodded and went to check the food and drinks for the evening.

-Vanessa, is everything ready?

-Yes, grandfather,” Vanessa answered busily.

Then Vanessa said in front of all the servants:

-Remember my words, act well and you will take a holiday this month.

-Yes, Mrs Vanessa.

Vanessa dismissed the servants with her hand and walked quickly towards Gerard.

-Grandfather, don’t worry, I have everything under control. I’m going to greet the guests, take a rest for a while,” said Vanessa smiling and took Gerardo’s arm.

-Take it easy,” Gerardo patted Vanessa’s hand and was escorted to the rest area.

Vanessa nodded and hurried to the door to greet the guests who arrived one after the other.

She had called Orlando, but he did not answer.

Jaime was also busy greeting guests and asked worriedly:

-Mrs. Vanessa, have you not found Mr. Orlando?

-It’s OK, I can handle it all by myself.

Jaime said no more, but as concerned as he was, he had to attend to the guests first.

The guests were arriving and Vanessa’s face was already too stiff to keep smiling for so long. She called her husband several times, but he only criticised her and hung up. So Vanessa had to hide her sadness and continue to entertain the guests with a smile on her face.

It was almost time for the banquet to begin, but neither Orlando nor Dylan showed up and Vanessa became a little anxious under such a situation.

-Mrs. Vanessa, Mr. Gerardo has already communicated with Mr. Orlando, he says he is arriving,” Jaime approached Vanessa and whispered to her.

-Okay.

Vanessa had had enough of being a clown there and wanted to rest for a while after Orlando arrived.

However, Orlando arrived, but accompanied by Melina.

Vanessa was chatting with some ladies from the Pacific City and they were commenting on her relationship with Orlando:

-What luck! Mrs. Vanessa and Mr. Orlando have known each other since they were little, it’s an ideal marriage, isn’t it? Mrs. Vanessa, how lucky you are!

“Any luck?”

Vanessa smiled bitterly inside and did not know how to respond.

Just then, someone saw Orlando and pulled Vanessa’s arm.

-Why, it’s Mr. Orlando…. -but the person’s words and smile came to a sudden halt.

Vanessa followed his gaze and saw that Orlando grabbed Melina’s waist, and the two looked like a happy, loving couple.
