Chapter 7: Melina’s provocation
-That’s up to you,” Dylan replied nonchalantly after all Vanessa’s flattery and said no more.
Vanessa almost broke her mobile phone out of anger, but thanks to the affair with Dylan, the sadness and pain she was immersed in had been lifted. Now she didn’t even care if Orlando didn’t come back all night.
The next morning, Vanessa dressed quickly and drove to work.
She had never thought of being a housewife, not even after she married Orlando, as she was the only heiress in the Cazalla family.
As for Melina, she was simply the misguided offspring of a drunken night out by her father, Felipe Cazalla.
Although people treated Melina as a young lady in the Cazalla family, her existence remained a stain on Felipe, who had sworn that he would only love his wife.
Melina was the evidence of her father’s betrayal, but Vanessa had always treated her as her younger sister. However, she belatedly realised how stupid she had been to help the ungrateful woman.
Soon after arriving at the Cazalla Group building, Vanessa parked the car in the basement and went up to the seventeenth floor.
-Good morning, Director Vanessa.
-Good morning,” Vanessa smiled and waved to her employees and soon arrived at her office.
The Cazalla Group was an upper-middle-tier company in the Pacific City, mainly involved in electronics, real estate, department store chains, etc.
Vanessa was the only heiress in the family, but she was more into fashion design. Spoiling his beloved daughter, Philip had not forced her to study business administration, but had let her do whatever she wanted and had even set up the design department on the seventeenth floor especially for Vanessa.
Knock, knock, knock.
His secretary knocked on the door and came in with a coffee.
-Director Vanessa, your coffee.
-Thank you,” said Vanessa.
And when he saw that she did not leave, he asked her:
-Is there anything else?
-Miss Melina is outside,” replied the secretary with a frown.
“Melina?! Why are you coming here? To show me your achievements?”
Vanessa scoffed and calmly asked the secretary to let her pass.
-Vanessa.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Melina, wearing a beautiful long dress, greeted her in a very flirtatious manner.
-What are you here for? -Vanessa looked at her coldly.
-Don’t be so indifferent to me, we are sisters.
-Well, I didn’t know I had such a cheeky sister who sleeps with my husband,” Vanessa teased her after taking a sip of coffee.
However, Melina was not at all embarrassed, but rather proud.
-How can you blame me like that? If the problem is that you are unable to catch his heart properly.
-If you’re here to show off, you can go.
Melina hated Vanessa’s indolent and haughty face, because it made her look like a wretched clown.
-Vanessa, one day you will kneel before me like a miserable ant begging me for mercy.
