Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 397: Internal conflict in the Leoz family



When Vanessa got tired of shopping, she sat down in the dessert shop to rest, and Josefina went to the toilet, so she was left alone in her seat.

She had a peculiar taste after her pregnancy, and the durian lasagne, which Vanessa would never have touched before, was something she wanted to eat today, so she simply ordered one and ate it happily.

As Josephine left, she suddenly became aware of an unfamiliar gaze watching her from the shadows.

She frowned, not quite sure, thinking that perhaps she was being too sensitive.

But instead of disappearing, the feeling of being watched became clearer.

Vanessa frowned and leaned back to look in the direction of the gaze. There was nothing out of the ordinary, except for a few guests sitting together eating dessert.

Whether it’s her own sense that something is wrong or whether she’s really being watched, Vanessa doesn’t feel comfortable. The durian lasagne in front of her also suddenly lost its charm, and when Josephine left, Vanessa offered to come back.

-No more shopping?This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

-I’m a bit tired and I want to rest again.

Vanessa smiled reluctantly and said that Josefina had been trained to perceive people’s emotions with special sensitivity. Noticing that Vanessa was not very happy, Josefina had the good sense not to ask any more questions.

When she returned, Josefina found an opportunity to be alone and called the others to ask about the situation.

-Soñorita Vanessa’s senses are too sharp and she probably realised that we were protecting her and that’s why she came back earlier.

-It seems they need to be more careful in the future. If even Soñorita Vanessa can detect it, surely other forces will notice it too. You all know in your hearts the problems that may arise when the time comes.

At Josefina’s words, the person on the other end of the line immediately fell silent.

After a while, the other party seemed to sigh particularly heavily, and then said in a solemn tone.

-We will be more careful and make sure we keep Soñorita Vanessa safe.

-It’s good to know that Soñorita Vanessa is not alone now.

The reminder ended and Josefina simply hung up the phone.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Josefina hid the solemnity of her face and showed a big smile as she walked out with a grin on her face.

-Vanessa, is there something you came to see me about?

It was not known whether Vanessa had heard her when she had just called.

As soon as she came out, she saw Vanessa standing outside, and if she had not been mentally strong enough, she would have been exposed.

-Nothing, just asking you where you put the things we bought today.

-Wait, I’ll go get him. Just take him to the first floor, to the activity room?

The activity room had started out as a secluded empty room, and there wasn’t much in it to begin with. After Vanessa decided to keep the baby, the empty room had undergone some simple modifications to serve as an activity room for her exercise.

-Well, it’s good to put it there.

-All right, I’ll be right there.

Josefina finished, smiled and turned to walk quickly away.

He didn’t notice Vanessa frowning slightly behind him with a thoughtful expression.

The other side.

-Where are the photos? Show them to me.

Vincent’s face was sombre, his eyes sharp and gloomy, and he dared not look them straight in the face.

Sergio immediately pulled out all the photos and turned his laptop screen around so that Vincent could see them easily.

-Did you find out who was near her? Make sure there are no Dylan people?

The person in the photos was none other than Vanessa.

Dylan had been right to anticipate how Vincent might have given up investigating Vanessa. Already the day after his arrival in Pacifica City, he had secretly sent someone to look for Vanessa’s whereabouts, and when he did, he sent someone to keep an eye on her.

-No luck so far, it seems they have really cut ties with Mr Dylan and are starting over in a different city.

Sergio finished and looked cautiously at Vicente.

Instead of relaxing at this, he growled, full of derision.

-Just because you haven’t figured it out doesn’t mean you haven’t done it. Dylan has the power and I’m getting old. I can’t see through him anymore.

That is why he has to be more careful.

Dylan was like a hungry wolf, and with the chains on Vincent’s hands, he cared little for his little antics and what he did in private.

But not now.

The chains are rusty and no longer as strong as before. The bonds have lost their binding effect and sooner or later the hungry wolf will break free.

At this point, he must sustain Dylan’s other lifeline, or his destruction awaits.

Vincent, who knew it well, would not give up on superficial findings, he would not stop digging for more.

-Keep going, as long as you don’t alert Dylan! Don’t let your guard down even if you don’t really find anything, and don’t recall the people you sent to spy on Vanessa to make sure they are ready to be used.

Whether Vanessa was Dylan’s lifeline or not, Vincent would not leave the line.

-Yes.

Sitting on the expensive and luxurious sofa, Vincent’s eyes turned sombre as he thought about what he had recently discovered about the club with Roberto.

How much her heart ached for her poor little granddaughter was how much she hated Roberto, how much she resented Dylan, how much she resented Vanessa.

I would not forgive any of these people.

Hospital.

-Have you mapped the Leoz family’s hidden forces in the depths?

If he wanted to get rid of Vicente’s control over the Leoz family, Dylan had to get his hands on something strong enough to counteract it. This time Vicente went home, how could he waste such a good opportunity.

While Vincent pretended to cooperate with him in the search for Brisa, Dylan had been investigating the Leoz family to the best of his ability.

Without Vicente, the Leoz family was no longer so cautious and it was easy to find something in their favour.

-Some evidence of the Leoz family’s involvement in the arms trade was found and has been hidden, destroying any trace of our people. In addition, it was discovered that Vicente’s two sons had secretly quarrelled. They were stupid enough to antagonise the Leoz family in order to set a trap for each other, and they made a mess that each of them is now hiding. But if a third party snoops around, it will come out. When that happens the Leoz family will be in trouble and Vicente alone will not be able to handle it in the short term.

This is good news for them.

That’s why Mateo is smiling a particularly happy smile.

Dylan also smiled with a relaxed expression at her words.

-In that case, let’s set him free. The Leoz family should also make some noise to distract Vicente.

Otherwise, he was worried that Vincent would set his sights on Vanessa.

And little did Dylan know, his baby was already being watched.

Before Brisa could be found, there was a problem on the Leoz side of the family.

Vincent’s body shuddered at the news and he almost didn’t faint.

-Sir.

Charles rushed to support him, looking at Vincent nervously, fearing he would faint if he couldn’t slow down.
