Chapter 476: Helping Alonso
City C.
-How does it feel? Are you still getting used to it?
Alonso asked with a slight smile, looking at Vanessa, with genuine concern in his eyes.
-I’m used to it.
Vanessa had been thinking about doing something since she was well enough to stay at Alonso’s house every day. It didn’t make sense for the two of them to live here at all.
In response to Vanessa’s question, Alonso asked her opinion and, with Vanessa’s permission, sent her to apply for a job in her friend’s company.
Today was the first day of work.
-It’s good to get used to it.
Alonso was concerned that Vanessa had lost her memory and was a bit shy when it came to socialising with people.
He now seemed to be adjusting well.
It should be comforting, but Alonso’s brow furrowed slightly as he thought about his version of the situation.
-What’s wrong? Is something wrong?
Vanessa was well aware of Alonso’s mood, and the slightest hint of embarrassment in a man who always appeared slightly aloof and self-assured always made people want to pay more attention.
-Nothing.
Alonso’s moods came and went quickly.
He hadn’t made up his mind yet, so he didn’t want to put Vanessa in a difficult situation with him.
-If there is something you need to tell me, I may not be able to help you at all, but I can at least be a competent listener.
Vanessa looked at Alonso with a serious face.
-Good.
The slight mist under his eyes dissipated completely and Alonso responded with a soft smile.
What is to come is what has to come.
One week later.
-Vanisa.
-What is it?
Vanessa had finished her work and went out to pour water, it was late and to her surprise Alonso had not gone to bed. He seemed to have been sitting in the living room and didn’t even have the light on at the time, which made his face blur a little.
-I have to go abroad for a while.
-Has something happened?
-Yes,” Alonso nodded and rubbed his forehead rather wearily. It’s something from home that I have to… have to deal with again.
Both Alonso’s place of residence and his usual grooming showed that he belonged to an extraordinary family. The two of them had never met any of Alonso’s relatives in all the time they had spent together, and he had never mentioned his family, so Vanessa hadn’t asked.
Now, by the look on his face, Vanessa guessed that something at home must be what was bothering Alonso.
But he had to go back again.
He was even disgusted by it, repulsed by it.
-Is it difficult to fix?
Alonso looked up, fixed on Vanessa, and spoke slowly.
-The truth is, I have to go back this time and commit myself to a woman whom I neither love nor loathe at all. Unless I have a lover,? there is no escape from that.
If it were not for the need to avoid that disgusting woman, he would not have remained alone in the country, with very little contact even with his family.
But there was no escaping things.
He was already disgusted with her to the core, not to mention that there was now another person living in his heart as well.
It wasn’t that deep, but it was something I didn’t want to let go of.
Yes, that person was Vanessa.
Saying this directly, Alonso could not deny that he had a bet in mind.
He wanted Vanessa’s answer, but he wasn’t going to be a gentleman and force her. At most, he would try to take the opportunity to see if Vanessa would do something on her own, but if not, he would not force her.
That’s Alonso.
Vanessa frowned, thinking about Alonso’s words.
For her, having lost her memory, she did not seem to recall any further involvement in the past, apart from the occasional dream in which a man with an unreadable face stared at her inexplicably.
Alonso had also said that he had investigated why she had appeared alone and injured in such an isolated place, but could find nothing of value.
There were even traces of artificial erasure on it.
This led the two to judge that Vanessa must be in danger, and that someone had done it. Thus, she could not continue the investigation for her own safety until she recalled her memories.
Vanessa also agreed with Alonso.
With all this, Vanessa thought she could help Alonso for a while.
Until Alonso finds someone he really likes, Vanessa can play that role.
After all, she and Alonso were bound together until she regained her memories.
-I think I could help you.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Finally hearing the answer he had received, Alonso accepted it openly, although he spat a little inwardly.
-Don’t you have to think about it?
-You saved me, you took me in and helped me. With love and reason I should help you. Not to mention that it’s just an act, and when you find someone you really like, this matter will be resolved naturally.
-But if you go abroad with me, there’s no way you can come back anytime soon.
-It’s OK.
In the short term, there was no way to recover his memory either.
-Thank you.
Alonso looked at Vanessa silently, thanking her not only for her help, but for the opportunity she was invisibly giving herself.
A chance to get his heart.
The family put so much pressure on him that Alonso went to the hospital the next day and resigned.
Vanessa did the same.
After arranging everything at home, the two left the country with Alonso’s help.
Peaceful City.
-Is there a sports day at the nursery today?
Mateo looks in amazement at Dylan, who is already dressed and ready to leave the office, and who always takes care of everything concerning his daughter.
-You are in charge of the company and you are going to hold the video conference in one hour. Any comments?
-No.
How dare you?
Interrupting Dylan and Candy’s bonding time would land him in the frying pan.
After escorting Dylan to the lift, Mateo immediately went to his office to make preparations.
The thought of what he had to do made his hair stand on end, especially as the other part of this video conference was notoriously difficult.
Oops.
Kindergarten.
The winter sports day meant that the kindergarten was very busy today, with children everywhere with their parents.
The sports field was divided into different zones and each zone was separated for different events. The children sign up for the events they like and the teachers do not force anything.
In addition to parents and teachers, there are even some journalists.
After all, this kindergarten is private and is known as an aristocratic kindergarten.
There are children and grandchildren of dignitaries, children of celebrities and, of course, young princes of great fortunes.
The good thing is that such an aristocratic kindergarten has a good culture and does not degenerate into an occasion for parents to climb the social ladder and flatter each other.
Dylan’s appearance attracted a lot of attention.
On the one hand, it was his status, and on the other, it was his face.
A handsome man, unparalleled, with a cool, strong aura and an upright posture… Wherever he appears, he stands out.
