Deep love: insatiable lover

Chapter 234: I Will Outlive You



Damn it!

The recently renovated Orlando office was once again left in tatters.

In the Moya family.

Gerard was in the middle of making tea when he saw the news. He was clearly in a good mood, as he played with the valuable alabaster vessel in his hands.

Jaime, tell Pilar to bring my great-grandson.

In a better mood, Gerardo intended to play with his great-grandson. He didn’t turn around, so he didn’t see for a moment the embarrassed expression on Jaime’s face.

There was compassion in his eyes.

Gerardo’s great-grandson was almost eight months old and even Gerardo, who had never cared for a baby before, should be able to tell by his reaction.

“This little baby situation is going to be too hard to hide.”

-Yes, sir, I’ll be right there.

Jaime lamented but dared not linger.

He turned around and was about to go upstairs to look for Pilar when suddenly he heard a loud knock on the living room door.

-Get out of my way, don’t stop me!

It was Orlando’s voice.

Jaime stopped immediately, looked at Gerardo, who was still preparing the tea without responding, and turned to Orlando.

-Sir.

Orlando ignored Jaime and approached Gerardo with long strides.

-Did you do this?

Gerard prepared his tea slowly and deliberately, as if he had not heard her interrogation. He poured himself a cup, lifted it, sniffed it gently and squinted his eyes in pleasure with a relaxed expression, as if nothing had happened.

It was clear that he was deliberately ignoring Orlando.

The naked humiliation increased Orlando’s anger, who did not expect one of his supporters, Bureau X, to be taken down so quickly by Gerardo.

“The powers behind it are really well hidden.”

“Look, this is the grandfather you once respected. In his eyes, you were nothing more than a pawn, not even qualified to know the background of your own family. That’s why you’re in a mess, that’s why you’ve fallen flat on your face.”

Without Bureau X, its DS Group was largely paralysed.

Although he had previously eaten some of the Moya Group’s association cases, he was indigested.

How could Orlando not be outraged when this was a joke to him, a naked disregard for his former self-esteem? So he went back to the Moya family and confronted Gerardo.

-Heh, you never really trusted me fully. Even when I am your only grandson and the future heir of the Moya family, you never wanted to tell me all the secrets of the Moya family. Well, that’s good. I finally understand that in your heart, from beginning to end, there was only your own power.

-You’re wrong, the only thing I have in my heart is the Moya family.

-So there was a time when you were useful to the Moya family, that’s why I indulged you, that’s why I let you enjoy everything. But when you gave up everything for yourself, when you didn’t want these things for yourself, of course I spared no effort to get them back.

-I’m not going to feed a tiger and have it be a threat to me.

-A tiger? Heh, you never wanted to raise me as a tiger, did you?

Orlando laughed angrily and looked mockingly at Gerardo.

“What nice words, he just wants to have total control over me.”

-Now, I was turning against you, I was setting up the DS Group, trying to put the Moya Group down, trying to take back everything that was mine, trying to get rid of your control. And everything I did was a joke, a joke that could be secretly made fun of!

Orlando was furious.

His chest rose and fell as he gasped violently.

Gerard smiled coldly, with sharp, contemptuous eyes.

-So what? You came to me to make a fuss, to make me feel sorry for you?

-I don’t need it.

Orlando’s eyes were red and he stared at Gerardo.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

-Do you think I’ll commit myself? Never. Now I know all your power and I know the support behind the Moya family. So there is nothing to fear. The reason I am here today is to tell you, Grandfather, that you are old. Even if you are backed by power, you will not be able to sustain yourself for a few years. But I am still young and I will live much longer than you.

“So in the end, the only person who can win is me.”

Orlando scoffed, his eyes full of indifference.

Gerard clinked his glass involuntarily and took a moment to suppress his anger.

He scoffed, unconcerned.

-Don’t forget that I still have your son. Even if I don’t have years to live, even if I have to risk my old life, I will raise him to be the most qualified heir of the Moya family.

Orlando’s body stiffened, apparently he had forgotten about Melina’s son.

He had lowered the gauntlet in front of Gerard and made his attitude clear, only to suddenly realise that there was another fatal stumbling block.

“Huh, that’s funny.”

However, when it came down to it, what had been said had already been said, and it would never be taken back.

-Then let’s give it a try. Let’s see if the great-grandson to whom you have communicated your hopes is a good person to take the responsibility. Grandfather, we can try. Will your great-grandson win or will it be me?

Orlando arrived and left in a rage.

Like a gust of wind.

The mask of submission was finally torn from Gerard’s face and he grimaced, placing the small cup in his hand firmly on the coffee table.

The tea spilled and stained his hands.

Taking a towel and wiping it gently, Gerard looked at Jaime.

Go on, get Pilar to bring my great-grandson here.

Jaime had been happy, thinking that Gerardo would probably forget about seeing the little boy because of Orlando’s arrival. But now it seemed that Orlando’s arrival had irritated Gerardo even more, and if this moment he knew that something was wrong with his great-grandson, then….

-What? Didn’t you hear me?

Gerard narrowed his eyes and looked with disgust at Jaime, who had turned away.

-Yes, I’ll be right there.

Jaime hurried back to his senses and bowed respectfully. With that, he turned and strutted up the stairs.

There was no way to hide it now.

-Does he want to see this child?

Pilar almost fainted when she heard the news. She looked with concern and pity at the little boy lying motionless in his cot. He knew nothing of the outside world and had been so immersed in his own world that he did not react at all.

-What to do, the Lord will understand everything when he sees the little one,” Pilar said anxiously as she walked around the room.

-Is there nothing else that can be done?

-What can be done?

-Like last time, just say… just say the little one is asleep?

Jaime frowned, his eyes filled with helplessness.

-This excuse doesn’t work.

-But… but… but…

Pilar was in a hurry, but there was nothing she could do.
