The atmosphere was awkward, and there was a moment of silence for a while. nca thought that Lorenzo’s parents forgot her names.


    It made her feel that she needed to introduce herself again. Because of that, she immediately walked closer to Lorenzo’s mother. After that, she reached out to shake hands and introduced herself again.


    “Good evening, Mrs. Sans! I’m nca.”


    “Oh, nca.” Lorenzo’s mother said in a t tone without shaking nca’s hand, which made nca discourage her intention and pull her arm again.


    “Yes, Mrs. Sans.” nca tried to remain friendly.


    “You’re Lorenzo’s girlfriend, right?” asked Lorenzo’s mother in a guessing tone. She pretended that she didn’t know.


    “Yes.”


    Lorenzo’s mother, who just realized she was the center of attention, immediately asked her guests to sit down. “Sit down, please!”


    nca sat down immediately. Meanwhile, nca and Lorenzo’s parents walked closer to the chairs. Then they sat down.


    “Please enjoy the food!” said Lorenzo’s mother.


    “Yes. Please, enjoy it!” said Lorenzo’s father enthusiastically to break the silence.


    Then, Lorenzo’s father started talking with nca’s parents, Lorenzo’s father, and Trevor. The atmosphere became a little more rxed.


    nca’s parents, Lorenzo’s father, and Trevor were all talking. They were also busy with their own situations.


    Meanwhile, nca was still focused on talking with Lorenzo’s mother. Lorenzo sat next to nca to keeppany with her.


    “I thought you were still Trevor’s girlfriend.” Lorenzo’s mothermented. She still pretended that she didn’t know.


    “No, I’m not. We broke up,” answered nca.


    “Why did you break up?” asked Lorenzo’s mother curiously.


    “There are some things that don’t match between us,” said nca, because it was impossible for her to exin the real reasons to Lorenzo’s mother.


    Firstly, nca has an affair with Lorenzo behind Trevor. No matter what the reason is, it’s still a vition of their agreement. Secondly, nca couldn’t possibly embarrass Trevor in that ce.


    “Oh. Really? What are those?” Lorenzo’s mother was curious about the real reason.


    “Those are secrets!” nca really didn’t want to spill the tea.


    “I guess because Trevor is fierce and rude. Is that right?” Lorenzo’s mother guessed in a joking tone.


    nca didn’t answer. She was still silent.


    “Well! That’s his characteristic.”


    “I told you from the start. Don’t take it personally!”


    “But if youpare him with Lorenzo, of course Lorenzo is more friendly. I admit it.” Lorenzo’s mother admitted.


    “By the way, Lorenzo, can you leave me alone for a while? I want to talk with nca.”


    Lorenzo’s mother asked as she looked at Lorenzo’s direction. nca also looked to that reaction. That made nca realize that Lorenzo was sitting next to her.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    “What’s wrong, Mom?” asked Lorenzo with a suspicious tone because he was confused by his mother’s reason for asking Lorenzo to leave.


    “Nothing is wrong. Everything is okay.” Lorenzo’s mother answered.


    “I just want to talk to nca alone. Do I need to leave here with nca?”


    Lorenzo’s mother asked because she didn’t feel free to do the actions that she had nned or to talk about what she wanted to talk about. The things that Lorenzo’s mother wanted to say were private things that Lorenzo is not allowed to know.


    Meanwhile, after getting that question, Lorenzo felt that there was something important that forced him to leave the conversation. Because of that, Lorenzo answered immediately.


    “No need, Mom. I’ll go from here.”


    “Okay.”


    Lorenzo immediately whispered to nca as he stood up. “nca, I’m sorry! I must leave you!”


    He deliberately spoke in a low tone. It was supposed to be because he didn’t want his mother to hear what he said.


    “Yes. It’s okay.” nca whispered in a low voice, too.


    However, their whispers were still heard by Lorenzo’s mother. Hearing that, Lorenzo’s mother immediately said


    “Ah! That’s okay. I just want to talk with nca for a while.”


    “Yes, Mom.” Lorenzo walked away from them. He left them and joined the others.


    “What’s wrong, Mrs. Sans?” asked nca because she was curious about what Lorenzo’s mother was going to talk about.


    “You still remember, right?” Lorenzo’s mother made sure that nca still remembered.


    “Remember? What?”  nca was confused by what Lorenzo’s mother meant by “remember.”


    “About your match with Trevor.” Lorenzo’s mother answered.


    “Yes. Then?” nca felt confused.


    “Then? What?! You asked me. “Then?”?!”


    Lorenzo’s mother was shocked when she knew that nca had asked her that question. That question looked stupid to her.


    “So, why do you be Lorenzo’s girlfriend now?” “Why do you want to get engaged and get married with him?”


    “You were set up and chosen to be with Trevor. Remember that!” She asked nca to remember.


    “So, you will get engaged and get married with Trevor, but why will you do that with Lorenzo?” Lorenzo’s mother got mad because she was annoyed that nca looked like she was trying to win her son’s love.


    “Yeah. Trevor has another girlfriend. He is happy with his new girlfriend.” nca answered.


    “Then, what’s the problem? Can’t I have a love rtionship with another guy?” nca asked Lorenzo’s mother for her opinion.


    “Yeah. That’s true.” Lorenzo’s mother admitted it.


    “Trevor has a new girlfriend now, but it’s because of you.” Lorenzo’s mother answered. She med nca at that time.


    “Me? Because of me? Howe it’s because of me now?” nca frowned, because she was confused by what Lorenzo’s mother was saying and was defending her son at that time. She doesn’t ept being med by Lorenzo’s mother.


    “You must have done something. That’s why he can’t stand with your attitude.”


    “So, Trevor, you had an affair behind you. That’s normal. It’s so impossible if you didn’t do something that makes him can’t stand your attitudes and have an affair behind you.” Lorenzo’s mother defended Trevor.


    “I’m his mom, who conceived him, gave birth to him, breastfed him, and raised him until now. So, I know exactly what Trevor is like,” Lorenzo’s mom said confidently.


    “Me? Do something?” asked nca, pointing at herself, because she didn’t think she had done anything to make Trevor so angry until he left her and had an affair behind her.


    “Yes, of course!” said Lorenzo’s mother.


    nca wanted to defend herself. So, she immediately opened her mouth. She wanted to argue with Lorenzo’s mother and tell her what really happened.


    But before she could say a word, Lorenzo’s mother had spoken and reminded nca. “No matter what the condition, remember your position! You’re just a betting item.”


    “Do I need to tell Lorenzo about our agreement, huh?” Lorenzo’s mother threatened nca, which scared her because she was afraid Lorenzo would back down and be disappointed in her after learning about her bad past.


    “Or can you ransom yourself by paying the amount of ransom plus the increasing intion rate?” challenged Lorenzo’s mother.


    “You can’t, right?” asked Lorenzo’s mother again.


    “So, you shouldn’t be like this!” Lorenzo’s mother raged in a loud voice that made an instant silence, and everyone looked in their direction because they were curious about what had happened to make her act like that.


    After getting that bad treatment, nca immediately asked for permission to leave the ce. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Sans! I must leave now.”


    After that, nca walked away from that ce. She felt very sad to be treated like that.


    She wanted to cry because she didn’t know what to do. In that position, she felt she could do nothing. She was afraid Lorenzo would find out about her past, she wouldn’t marry him, and they would break up, but she couldn’t ransom herself either.


    At that moment, Lorenzo immediately ran and chased after nca as he kept calling her name. “nca! nca!”


    Lorenzo’s calls didn’t make nca turn to him because she was already tired of facing that problem. When they were outside the house, Lorenzo was able to catch up to nca.


    He immediately grabbed her hand and said. “nca, why do you leave the dinner, and why do you want to go home now? We want to talk about our engagement and our marriage.”


    “Just take care of it with you, Lorenzo!” nca said as she let go of her hand and ran away from him.


    She wanted to go home and cry in her house. She wanted to calm herself. She felt so tired.


    .


    “But, nca…”  Lorenzo’s words were cut off by nca’s words.


    “Just take care of it with you, Lorenzo!” nca repeated her words.


    “I know; you know what’s best for me. I trust and believe in you, Lorenzo.” Indeed, nca believes that Lorenzo will know and be able to give her the best.


    After that, she saw a taxi passing by. She immediately called a taxi. “Taxi!”


    The taxi immediately stopped. When she was near the taxi, she opened the door and got into it.


    She asked the driver to take him to her house. Not long after, the driver drove that taxi away and left.


    Lorenzo watched nca leave with the taxi. It annoyed him, and heined.


    “Ah! It’s because of my mom!”


    “I’m sure, my mom must have said something that hurts her so much. That’s why she does this. My mom is so insolent with him!” Heined in his heart.
