Chapter 348: Apology
-I can’t believe he’s gone like this?
Seeing that the maid had left without them, without even opening the door to invite them in, Brisa said, her eyes wide with indignation and discontent.
It was the first time she was treated like a star everywhere she went.
Not to mention that it was one of the Cazalla family’s maids who gave her the door!
Brisa couldn’t take it.
-Dylan, isn’t the Cazalla family maid too rude? In any case, the visitor is a guest. What’s more, we do them a favour by coming to the Cazalla family and they have the cheek to make us wait at the door. What is this? How arrogant is that? And you want me to apologise to Vanessa?
He wanted to turn around and leave if he could.
Dylan’s cold eyes swept over her and Brisa gasped, reluctantly closing her mouth.
The living room.
-Dylan?
-Mr. Dylan also brought a young woman who said she was coming to apologise to Miss Vanessa.
-An apology?
Mercedes had not known the reason for Vanessa’s disappearance until now, so when she heard the servant say that, she was filled with confusion. Just then, Vanessa happened to come downstairs.
-Who wants to apologise? -he asked nonchalantly.
Mercedes and the maid looked at each other in unison, and the look on their faces caused Vanessa to stare, wondering with some amusement:
-What? Is something wrong with me?
“The maid and my mother had strange looks.”
-Dylan is here.
-What are you doing here?
At the mention of Dylan, the smile on Vanessa’s face was immediately wiped off.
He pursed his lips, his face full of resistance to the man.
-Mr Dylan said he came to apologise and brought a young lady with him.
-Apologise?
“Has Dylan brought Brisa here to apologise, when a rich, arrogant, condescending girl like Brisa would apologise to me? Besides, Dylan adores and indulges her, doesn’t he, how could he let her apologise to a little man like me? I don’t think so.”
-No, let them go,” said Vanessa without hesitation.
The maid looked at Mercedes again.
-Just do what Vanessa says.
-Yes, I’ll get right on it.
With that the maid turned to leave when Vanessa frowned and called her back:
-Wait.
-Miss, what else can I do for you?
-Go and tell Dylan that I’m still sick in the head and I don’t want to see anyone.
Having a reason would make Dylan more eager to leave. Otherwise, given his character, he would not stop until he got what he wanted.
-I understand.
The maid nodded and left quickly.
Vanessa approached Mercedes and sat down next to her, who held her hand with concern.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
-All right, don’t think about it too much.
-If Dylan insists on coming?
-Why would Dylan apologise? And bring a girl?
Both mother and daughter spoke at the same time.
Vanessa then realised that her mother did not know the reason for her disappearance. She hesitated, but decided to come clean with Mercedes. Taking her mother’s hand, Vanessa said.
-Because I disappeared earlier because of…
Upon hearing this, Mercedes’ face immediately hardened.
-They did this to you and they had the nerve to come to the door to apologise! How dare you come to apologise after doing such a vicious thing! Wait, I’ll get rid of them!
Mercedes said excitedly, getting up and walking out the door as she spoke.
-Mum, calm down. I only told you so you wouldn’t hear it from anyone else. It’s all in the past and I’m fine, so don’t take it personally. Don’t get upset.
-How can I not be angry! My daughter, who is so precious to me, is theirs to kidnap whenever they want?
Although Vanessa told Mercedes that her disappearance was Brisa’s doing, she did not dare to tell her what Brisa’s purpose was in taking her away.
He was worried that Mercedes would be furious.
Soon the maid returned, her face full of shame.
-Madam, Miss. Mr Dylan said he could not see Vanessa and apologise to her in person as well.
I knew the man would not give up so easily.
-Mum, don’t worry, we’ll ignore them.
-Go to your room first, I’ll take care of this.
-Mum, you…
Vanessa’s eyes widened, looking at her mother as if she wanted to see Dylan.
How could I not be worried.
-All right, I know the score. Do as I say and go up first.
Seeing Mercedes’ insistence, Vanessa couldn’t say anything. After looking at her with an urge to talk, she finally went upstairs. She didn’t go back to her bedroom, but walked to where she could see the courtyard and stared at Dylan as he came in with Brisa.
When they reached the door of the hall, Vanessa hurried up to the first floor, where she could hide and listen to the sounds of the hall.
She still wasn’t sure her mother would stand up to Dylan alone.
Not to mention the fact that there was a Breeze.
-Aunty.
Dylan greeted Mercedes with a polite nod.
He sat quietly on the sofa, sipping his cup of tea carefully, as if he had heard Dylan’s words and had not asked him to sit down.
Dylan didn’t mind either, rising to his feet without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
But Brisa couldn’t, she wasn’t ready to apologise, she had been turned down twice in a row before, and now Mercedes was treating her like this after coming in.
-Hey, you…
-Breeze.
Dylan turned his head to look, a single word but one that made even Brisa’s soul shudder with fear.
At that moment, she had the illusion that she was going to be killed by Dylan in the next second.
-Dylan, I…
Brisa’s voice trailed off, and she finally closed her mouth reluctantly and rose meekly.
Only when he finally calmed down did Dylan look at Mercedes.
-Aunt, today I brought Brisa to apologise to Vanessa.
-Apologise? Will an apology make up for the damage my daughter has suffered? Will an apology calm my mother’s anxious, worried heart? Fuck, apologies don’t fucking do anything.
For the first time in her life, Mercedes was swearing.
Even Vanessa, upstairs, was particularly surprised.
She couldn’t help but peek into the living room, where she quickly ducked back into hiding, but she had a feeling that Dylan had surprised her.
“Impossible.”
He patted his chest, reassuring himself.
But it was clear that Vanessa didn’t dare move again, so she hid and listened.
-Aunt, I know it’s useless to say more apologies, the damage has already been done. I don’t expect Vanessa to forgive, I just want her to see my attitude. Besides, I’ve already given Brisa her punishment,” Dylan looked at Brisa. Brisa, apologise.
Reluctantly.
Brisa was so upset!
He bit his lip and did not want to speak.
