Deep love: insatiable lover

-It can’t be helped, I’m in heat every time I think of you.

Vanessa:…

In terms of seduction, she could never win against Dylan.

-Well, don’t think about it too much, do what you have to do. Our lives can’t be shaken by a rat hiding in the shadows sniffing around, it’s not worth it.

-Good.

Dylan finished and reluctantly hung up the phone.

Phew.

He let out a long sigh, thinking it would be better not to show such a vulnerable side in front of Vanessa again, it simply undermined his manhood.

Wherever he was hiding and whatever he was going to do next, he wasn’t afraid and couldn’t wait for Orlando to jump so Dylan could deal with him as soon as possible.

Santiago stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his flat, which reflected his face more contorted than the devil.

-Dylan!

He grimaced and gritted his teeth at Dylan’s name.

The hands hanging at his side were clenched tightly, as if he was desperately trying to hold something back.

Santiago’s expression twisted as he thought of Vanessa next to Dylan, of the little girl in his arms who looked so much like him. Her eyes were so full of bitter resentment and hatred that it was unsettling to look into them.

At that moment, the mobile phone on the coffee table behind him vibrated.

He picked up the expression on his face, turned and went to answer the phone.

-I thought you said it would work? How come you screwed it up in the end? Damn it, you were lying to me from the start, weren’t you?

-Lying to you?

Santiago flashed a grim smile at the floor-to-ceiling window, with mockery in his eyes.

-It is obvious that you are the stupid one. I told you to be careful before you succeeded, but you, Mr Pomar, were stupid to fall into Dylan’s hands. All right, don’t call me again.

With that, Santiago hung up the phone.

Moses, on the other end of the line, would never have known that the person he had trusted was James, the little assistant he had been following.

The voice on the phone was fake!

Santiago gripped the phone tightly and looked at it with a thoughtful expression.

He had kept the number because he had to wait for a call from someone else.

By all accounts, it must be time.

As if responding to his thoughts, the phone rang again the next second.

Seeing that it was the number he was waiting for, Santiago smiled grimly and answered the phone slowly, his voice hoarse again.

-Have you thought it through?

-Can you really do what you promised?

-Of course, we are the best allies, how could I lie to you. What’s more, it’s not just us, there’s also the biggest help. The Leoz family, you should know that, right?

-You know very well what the Leoz family is like now, does it really work?

-If it works, you’ll know if you try it.

Santiago said meaningfully.

-Since you are willing to call here, you have realised, so now we are on the same side. Don’t worry, Mr Donel, our plan will work.

This time, he would definitely make Dylan pay and take everything that belonged to him.

-Dylan, you don’t care that much about Vanessa? Then how about I use her as a bargaining chip to threaten you? Heh, with the help of the Leoz family and Señor Donel, the two idiots, I’ll definitely succeed this time.

Santiago muttered to himself and smiled an open, smug smile.

He looked like a madman.

A paranoid lunatic.

Dylan knew nothing of this.

He too had calmed down after Vanessa’s words, and life had gone back to the way it was.

-I’m going to pick up my daughter.

-Are you going? Aren’t you busy at work today?

Vanessa raised an eyebrow unexpectedly when she heard Dylan say that on the phone.

-Well, it’s not busy.

With the Pomar family’s concession, the SJ project had succeeded. This meant that he did not have to look for more big cases for the second half of the year and that the subsidiary could show a steady upward trend for the next three years, so he planned to take some time off.

Picking up her daughter from the nursery in person was an important part of the bonding activities, so how could she miss it.

-All right then, go and pick up your daughter.

Vanessa had work to attend to there and could not make it to the kindergarten. As Dylan wanted to go, she had no reason to refuse.

Kindergarten.

Cecilia said goodbye to Nana, her best friend from kindergarten, with a sad look on her face.

Although she would see her again the next day, Cecilia was saddened to think that she would not see her for a night.

Nana is a very cute little girl with big, dark, bright eyes. Her little face was so fleshy that you wanted to squeeze her.

-Candy, see you tomorrow.

-See you tomorrow, Nana.

We had to go home even if we didn’t want to.

Cecilia gathered her strength to say goodbye to Nana and watched as Nana’s mother took her by the hand and left.

-What’s wrong with my baby Candy? -Are you not happy?

Cecilia was still a little frozen when she suddenly heard her father’s voice.

She looked up suddenly and saw that it was in fact daddy crouched in front of her and instantly squealed and threw herself into his arms.

-Dad!

-Do you miss Dad?

-Yes!

Cecilia nodded vigorously, not expecting to be picked up today by her dad at the nursery instead of the nanny and her uncle. She was so happy that the sadness she had just felt with Nana disappeared in an instant.

-Tell Dad, were you unhappy just now? Why?

-I’m not upset, I’m just sad to be separated from Nana.

-Nana?

-Yes, Nana is so cute and Nana’s mum is so nice. She even makes Nana bring me little handmade biscuits, which are so soft. Here, there is Nana’s family car.

Cecilia said cheerfully, introducing her best friend to Dylan as she pointed to a white Toyota not far away.

Dylan looked back and only saw the shadow of a woman pass by before getting into his car and driving away.

He didn’t care and withdrew his eyes.

-Silly, won’t we see each other again when we come to the kindergarten tomorrow? Why do you have to be sad.

-Well, I thought so too. I like Nana so much that I can’t help thinking about her. Okay dad, let’s go home.

-Let’s not go back first, let’s go to mum’s office and surprise her, okay?

-Yes!

Cecilia was, of course, a million times willing.

On the way, Dylan, concerned about his daughter’s hunger, bought her a delicious cake and brought one for Vanessa as well.

Vanessa was busy at the time, and on her desk was a document with the word XiWi Group on it, with some dense notes.
