Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 285: Dinner with Benjamin’s mother



-No way!” asked Dylan with a smile that didn’t reach the bottom of his eyes, while his voice remained soft, “I just thought it would be nice to let you decide on something so important, what, you don’t like me doing it?

-Sorry brother Dylan, I… I’m having a bit of trouble choosing so I’m in too much of a hurry. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to choose soon.

Brisa said the selection would be done quickly, and it was.

After making a quick decision, he had someone contact the wedding planning company by phone and then talked to them about his small request for changes. During the call, she occasionally looked at Dylan and asked him with her eyes.

He kept his gentlemanly but tender smile and looked at her with encouragement.

“Brother Dylan worries too, I guess.

Brisa thought about it, and her heart glowed. She knew she shouldn’t ask so much, at least now that Brother Dylan had agreed to commit to her without it necessarily being a factor of affection.

I had to learn to make good use of the opportunity.

It didn’t matter if they didn’t have a relationship now, they would have many days ahead of them and most of their lives to nurture it.

-Brother Dylan, I’ve got it done. Let’s go to the photo shoot tomorrow. It’s just the engagement party, but I want it to be perfect. Then we can take a picture of us together, and also give those press reporters a picture for their PR piece.

-Yes, as long as you’re happy,” said Dylan without much concern.

Breeze hooked her arm around him gleefully and rubbed against him petulantly.

-So let’s eat first now.

When Brisa was finally satisfied, it was eleven o’clock at night.

-Good girl, go back to rest.

-Brother Dylan, are you sure you won’t stay here?

-No, it won’t take me long to drive back.

Dylan refused and Brisa could not ask for more, so she reluctantly stepped back into the Leoz family estate.

Dylan had a flat in this country.

The flat itself was a duplex, and he even bought the upper and lower floors in one go. The staircase was interior and revolving. As it was the top floor, he also bought the upper floor and converted it into a swimming pool.

On top was a layer of transparent, high-tech glass that could change colour at will, perfectly protecting his personal privacy.

The room was large and much emptier with only Dylan.

He went to change into his swimming costume and took a bath upstairs before going to the bathroom to shower. When he emerged, wearing only his bathrobe, his dripping hair casually wiped with a large towel, he went straight to the bar and poured himself a drink.

The thin lips squeezed the orb-shaped glass, taking a sip.

Ice cubes clinked against the wall of the glass.

At that moment, Dylan suddenly wanted to hear Vanessa’s voice in particular. She had always done what she wanted, when she wanted.

Due to the time difference of twelve hours, it was almost 13:00 in the domestic one.

When the phone rang, Vanessa was having lunch in a private room with Benjamin and his mother. It was supposed to be just the two of them, but who knew they’d run into Benjamin’s mother.

When they met, they could only eat together, of course.

-Oh Vanessa, you’re too thin, you need to eat more,” Benjamin’s mother smiled and handed her a piece of meat, looking at her lovingly.

Vanessa smiled and thanked him, politely devouring the meat. At that moment, her phone rang.

Seeing Dylan’s name on the screen, Vanessa unconsciously hung up.

-Why don’t you pick it up?

Vanessa smiled and was about to explain that it was an annoying call when the phone rang again.

-Excuse me ma’am, I’m going to take a call.

He had no choice but to pick up the phone and leave for the time being.

In the washbasin.

-Dylan, what the hell do you want? I’m busy, so if you have something to say, I have to deal with it later.

-Busy? Busy having dinner with the mother and Benjamin?

Dylan contacted someone at home on his other phone just as he decided to call, and his eyes clouded over as soon as he learned Vanessa’s whereabouts.

-Why, is it not well for me to marry Benjamin, as you said, Mr. Dylan? In that case, would it not be well for you to be glad that I dined with the lady? -said Vanessa mockingly.

-That’s the way it is,” but it still didn’t feel right.

-Mr. Dylan if there is nothing I will hang up now, and please do not call again.

Vanessa turned off her phone and silenced it. Vanessa took a deep breath before leaving the sink, just as Benjamin’s mother entered the bathroom, and Vanessa froze and smiled.

-Madam.

-Are you already?

-Yes.

-Okay, you go back first, I’ll be ready later.

-I’ll go first then.

Vanessa nodded and walked quickly away. She wondered if Benjamin’s mother had heard what she had just said, her heart pounding.

-My mum has just gone to the toilet, can you meet her?

-Yes, I cover myself with it.

Vanessa smiled, trying to control her emotions so that Benjamin wouldn’t notice, but the low somber pressure was still very noticeable to him.

-Vanessa.

-Yes?

Vanessa looked up, puzzled.

-If … there’s anything you need help with, be sure to tell me and I’ll do my best to help you. I said I would protect you, so you don’t have to worry about adding to my problems.

Benjamin smiled, and the kind and tolerant look in his eyes warmed Vanessa’s heart.

-I will,” he said, genuinely, unapologetically.

The two looked at each other and smiled, surprisingly developing an unspoken understanding.

Even in a cage, Vanessa thought it would be hard not to fall in love with Benjamin herself.

It wasn’t long before Benjamin’s mother returned, and whatever they had in mind, no one mentioned the phone call again, and the food was quite good.

-Well, Vanessa, get to work. I’ll be back on my own.

-Let Benjamin take you.

-Yes, it’s just that I have nothing to do at the moment,” said Benjamin.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Benjamin’s mother glared at him, thinking what a fool her son was:

-I don’t need you to drive me…. You can take Vanessa home, it’s a ten minute walk from her house, then you can take a walk after dinner with her.

With that, Benjamin’s mother gave Benjamin a wink before turning her head and walking away.

Vanessa was a little embarrassed, Benjamin was a little more open.

-Come on, I’ll take you back.

Benjamin took Vanessa back to his house and left.
