Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 220: The Great Scum Shuffle



Pilar hurried to take the child in her arms and quickly turned around.

She had wanted to talk to Gerardo about the baby, but it was clear that Gerardo was angry at the time, and she feared that no good would come of talking to him about the baby.

She had raised this baby who was very attached to her, so she didn’t want to hurt such a small child.

“Forget it, let’s postpone it again.”

Looking at the child in her arms, who neither cried nor smiled, and who was even a little subdued, Pilar could not help but feel a pang of sadness.

“Oops, bitter fate.”

-Sir, calm down.

Jaime handed Gerardo a glass and frowned with concern.

-How can I let myself calm down! That bastard, it’s a clear attempt to go against me!

After the Felicia affair, Director Lacasa hated Gerardo so much that he tripped up the Moya Group with many policies, both explicit and implicit, and Orlando, scion of the Moya family, his grandson, knew enough and chose to marry a disfigured monster like Felicia!

Now Gerardo had apparently forgotten that the bastard he claimed to be had been expelled from the Moya family by himself long before.

-The señorito is going to marry Felicia, there’s no point in being anxious now. Maybe he’s doing it for the sake of the Moya family too, after all he’s the man of the Moya family, isn’t he?

That was all Jaime could do to reassure Gerard, and it was up to him to listen or not.

-Hmph, how can he be so happy, that bastard! -said Gerard disdainfully, his eyes full of hatred.

His grandson, whom he had raised single-handedly from infancy, had followed him down the path of opposition.

-If I had known that this woman would make the Moya family what it is today, I would never have agreed to the two of them being together in the first place!

Everything came to a head after Orlando married Vanessa.

If the two had not married, how could so much of what followed have happened. It was because of her that Orlando, who had been obedient since childhood, had dared to be degenerate and to do so much treachery.

Jaime could only sigh inwardly when he heard Gerardo say that.

For him, it was all Gerardo’s fault with Orlando. But he was the servant of the Moya family and could not stand by an outsider at a time like this.

-Sir, I think it would be better if you had more contact with Orlando now. Anyway, you are a family and if you get your act together, Orlando will surely come back.

-You mean I should go and apologise to the bastard?

Gerardo looked coldly at Jaime, his eyes full of anger.

Sir, it may be cold and hard, but it will be many years before your great-grandson is old enough to take over the company. How can you guarantee that everything will go smoothly? At a time like this, of course, the most important thing is to appease Orlando.

-Hmph, you’re asking me to have a nice talk with that bastard? No way.

Gerardo refused without even thinking about it, in any case he was the man in charge of the Moya family. He had been in charge of the Moya Group for a long time, but he could not admit to his grandson that he was wrong.

Moreover, Orlando’s grandson had been groomed as an easy pawn to control.

Seeing this, Jaime said nothing more. He remained silent, waiting for Gerardo to run out of breath.

When Gerardo went upstairs, Jaime stayed in the living room for a while before returning to his room.

He closed the door behind him and confirmed it once more before moving to the desk. He first opened a drawer and took out a discreet key from it, then opened another locked drawer.

For a moment, Jaime stared at the open drawer before pulling out a picture of him that was turned upside down.

Jaime respectfully turned the photo over and there was the image of a family of three. If Dylan had been there, he would have recognised who was in it.

-Sir, I will help you to take revenge.

After looking at the photo for a few moments in silence, Jaime returned it to its place and locked it.

The story of Orlando’s wedding to Bureau X’s daughter is making the rounds on the net.

Of course, word spread in a way that was definitely in Orlando’s favour. After a few days of fermenting, Orlando became the man brave enough on the internet to take responsibility not only for his crazy ex-wife, but also for the disfigured Felicia.

-Je.

Vanessa looked at all the internet hype and pursed her lips mockingly.

Enrique also had a look of contempt.

-A man of courage and responsibility? A compassionate businessman? Heh, a very nice adjective.

-It’s just a brocade coat full of bugs, nothing to see.

“Prettier, and it’s all covered in nasty bugs.”

-All right,” said Henry, shrugging his shoulders and snorting.

The two stopped paying attention to the messy news on the Internet and went about their days as they should.

After Orlando’s marriage to Felicia, his popularity has reached an all-time high. The former image of the unfaithful married man has been transformed into a new-age good guy.

The DS Group has taken an even bigger leap.

Orlando is therefore very satisfied.

-Chief, a friend from Bureau X is visiting.

Orlando looked animated and smug. At her words, he curved his lips into an elegantly imperceptible smile.

-Juan, the DS Group is going to get better and better.

-Yes.

One day his DS Group would overtake the Moya Group, and by then the Moya Group would surely have ceased to exist. Because, by then, the Moya Group would be in his pocket.

This is something Orlando is particularly confident about.

During this period of time, under the suppression of Bureau X, many of Grupo Moya’s resources were taken away from Grupo DS. In addition, Orlando took several capable people from Grupo Moya, and Gerardo was so angry that he could not kill him.

Having successfully negotiated a large deal, Orlando dismissed his friend from Bureau X and returned to his office.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, staring at the flickering neon, Orlando hooked his lips into a wry smile.

Compared to before, his whole aura is different.

There was something more inscrutable and mysterious about him. Though he always wore a smile, there was a terrifying hostility under his eyes. He looked at his reflection in the glass and slowly reached out his finger, tapping the smudge on his forehead.

-Wait and see, those who have humiliated me and made me suffer, sooner or later they will pay the price. Everything that should have been mine will be returned to me in good condition. moya group, vanessa, gloria, status!NôvelDrama.Org content.
