Deep love: insatiable lover

-Good.

Vanessa smiled and nodded, watching Alonso leave before a relieved expression appeared on her face.

To be honest, she had only agreed to this so-called engagement party in the first place because Alonso had saved her and helped her a lot. She was too embarrassed to say no, after all, she was the one who had agreed to pretend to be his girlfriend.

Now that the accident had happened and he could not commit himself, the subtle sense of guilt he felt disappeared.

He frowned, thinking it was time to try to recover his past memories.

I don’t know what Alonso must have said to his father, but the engagement party was handled perfectly.

Vanessa stayed in the living room, nothing outside bothered her.

Peaceful City.

Dylan had just finished reading Cecilia a story and putting her to bed when he received a call from Lucas.

-What is it?

-My flight is tonight, I’ll be there tomorrow. Tell Candy I brought her a present.

-I thought you said you were going to the engagement party.

Dylan asked absently, unconcerned by his words.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

-Don’t mention it, he was supposed to come for the engagement party. Who knew something would come up and the engagement party would be cancelled. So I finished early and planned to fly straight back.

-All right.

Dylan hung up the phone after that, being particularly cold.

Lucas…

Well, at least he promises to pass on his words to Candy baby.

-Petty!

Hanging up the phone again, Lucas looked around the guest-laden lobby and raised an eyebrow. Since the Rasgado family’s son’s engagement party wasn’t going to happen, he wouldn’t be here to waste his time.

I don’t know what Alonso said, but the engagement party has fallen through.

There was no need to recommit before its launch.

-Let’s go.

Alonso looked at Vanessa and smiled.

The two had bought their tickets and were on their way to the airport.

The academic research conference Alonso was due to attend was still in the city where he was originally working, and with two days to go, there was plenty of time and the two were in no hurry.

As the plane took off, Vanessa suddenly had the feeling that she would soon have all her memories back.

Closing his eyes, he emptied himself of his thoughts and fell into a deep sleep.

-An academic research conference?

Dylan raised an eyebrow at Lucas, his eyes seeming to say “Are you the only one who can go to a top academic medical research conference?” … especially looking at him as a close friend.

Lucas rolled his eyes.

-How bad do you think I am? I’m at least one of the best in the business, okay?

Are you still friends?

In C-town?

-Yes. It’s tomorrow, I have to leave today.

Luke replied, saying.

If I remember correctly, C-Town has a great place. It happens to be Saturday tomorrow and Candy doesn’t have school, so I’ll take her.

-Sure, and I can accompany Candy, I’ll have fun.

Lucas nodded repeatedly.

As a libertine man, he was surrounded by women, but he never wanted to settle down and never got his friend pregnant. So Lucas, in his thirties, still without a wife or children, feels a special affection for Cecilia.

If Dylan had not objected, he would have taken Cecilia as his daughter.

Lucas has had several problems with this, but Dylan won’t let him.

-We are not going to accompany you.

Dylan coldly interrupted Lucas’s dream.

-I mean, do you have to be like that, I’m so bad?

Lucas sulked and looked at Dylan, whom he would have pounced on had he not been unable to fight him.

Dylan shrugged his shoulders.

-Are we going on a trip?

Cecilia was instantly overjoyed to learn that she was going on a two-day trip with her father, excitedly pacing the room and packing her bags.

-Honey, you don’t need to bring so many things, we can buy them when we get there. Just bring your usual stuff, okay?

-Mmm.

Cecilia nodded vigorously.

But it turned out that Cecilia still packed a whole small suitcase of luggage.

He tidied himself up, took the suitcase out and put it in the cellar.

-Dad, I’m ready.

-Good girl.

Dylan smiled and leaned over to give his daughter a kiss on the forehead, and after dinner he told her to get an early night’s rest and leave first thing in the morning.

Lucas, on the other hand, had to go to C-town a night earlier because he had an early morning meeting.

For this reason, he was particularly annoyed throughout the journey.

Dylan didn’t take many people with him when he took his daughter out, and Mateo went with them in his own car, followed only by that of a bodyguard.

The trip from Pacifica to C-town took four hours.

As we were not in a hurry, and as Cecilia liked it, we used the self-driving situation.

At each tollbooth, Cecilia had to get out of the car with Dylan, run and look around, and wait until he had had enough before getting into the car and continuing.

By the time they reached C-town it was late afternoon.

Fortunately, the most famous monuments look best at night, so there was no need to rush.

After the meal, Dylan put his daughter to bed and went about the business of making sure he could take Cecilia for the night and the next day.

Lucas did not expect to meet the Lord, Alonso, who was not committed to the Rasgado family.

She was talking on the phone when she bumped into him, her lips curving softly.

-Well, it’s OK, there’s a working lunch here. Well, Vanisa, you don’t get too tired either.

Somehow, hearing the word “Vanisa” from her mouth, Lucas’ heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Because he thought of Vanessa.

And then he thought he had gone crazy looking for Vanessa for Dylan, that he had heard a name and thought it was Vanessa. And if it was Vanessa, how could she be with Alonso instead of Dylan?

Alonso turned when he noticed a glance behind him and was surprised to see Lucas.

-Mr Lucas.

Lucas looked at the name tag on Alonso’s chest and raised an eyebrow:

-Coincidentally, is Mr Alonso also here for the study session?

-Mr. Lucas too?

-There are two headquarters here and we are not in the same one, that’s why we don’t meet at the headquarters. But it’s a coincidence that I didn’t expect to meet Mr Alonso.

Alonso smiles politely, exchanges pleasantries with Lucas and sees that time is running out, so they say goodbye.

Lucas didn’t think much of the fact that he had met Alonso, so he hurried to finish with his personal problems and returned to the conference, waiting for the afternoon research session to begin.

Cecilia slept until four in the afternoon.

-Go wash your face.

Dylan looked at his daughter’s red, sleeping face and smiled.

-Dad, we’ll go out when I wash my face, right?

-So you have to be quick.

-All right.

Cecilia nodded vigorously and ran to the bathroom in her slippers. She climbed onto the small bench herself and quickly washed her face, cleaning the sink in the process as she went.
