Chapter 29

After eating dinner, they didn't immediately leave the restaurant. They got into a heated conversation.

"It seems your boyfriend is not coming, Miss Lenata."

Lenata didn't answer either. She chose to remain silent by closing her lips tightly. Meanwhile, she stared at Dreena with full sharpness.

Being ignored and not being acknowledged in front of her lover's parents has made Lenata furious.

The corners of her eyes glanced sharply at Calvino, who seemed to ignore her. He seemed to be having a warm conversation with Bram instead.

Finally, Lenata decided to contact Calista with a video call. Luckily, Calisya picked up the call right away.

"Hi, Belen." Calista greeted Lenata with a warm smile.

"Hey, babe."

"What's up? How weird you make a video call with me. What's wrong, hum?"

Lenata smiled.

"Nothing. I just miss you. Long time no see. How are you?"

"I'm fine. How about you? Oh, yeah, if I'm not mistaken..." Calista deliberately paused her words combined with a glance at the scene behind Lenata.

"It seems that you are currently at a restaurant. Are you having dinner with Calvin?"

Hearing Calvino's name being mentioned had made the three of them flinch. They turned their gazes to Lenata with a questioning look.

"The voice seemed very familiar and she mentioned Calvin's name. May I know who you are calling, Miss Lenata?"

Lenata smiled again. "You'd better see and talk to her by yourself, Mrs. Kafeel." Lenata replied while handing the phone to Dreena's hand.

Dreena flinched immediately, widening her eyes in disbelief.

Happy glints shone through her eyes. "Earl..."

"Oh, so Mom and Dad are having dinner with Calvin and Lena? Uhm, I guess this is a family gathering, right?"

Dreena immediately narrowed her eyes until her brow furrowed. "What do you mean, dear?"

"Mom, I meant a family gathering between our family and Lena's."

Hearing this had forced Bram to snatch the phone from Dreena's hand. Now, he was talking to his beloved daughter.

One reality has hit him about Calvino and Lenata's relationship. Even so, Bram hid his surprise.

Now, both Dreena and Bram were involved in a hot conversation. However, this didn't work for Calvino. The man seemed to be swearing at Lenata's impudence.

He also threw Lenata with a deadly sharp glare. Meanwhile, Lenata wasn't provoked at all. Instead, her silhouettes were full of meaning as if to say 'Look! Now you can't dodge anymore. Mr. & Mrs. Kafeel already know our true relationship."

'I will never forgive your impudence, Lena. I never think that an honorable woman like you can act so lowly by humiliating the Kafeel family in public.' Calvino thought.

Not only was Calvino ambushed by anger until his emotions peaked, Bram and Dreena also felt the same way about Calvino's act which they thought was shameful.

With all due respect, they also apologized for the son of Kafeel's attitude, who had hidden Lenata's true identity.

"No need to apologize. My relationship with Lena is long over."

"That's absolutely not true." Lenata denied.

Calvino then stared at Lenata with a deadly glare. "If you forget, let me remind you one more time, Miss Lenata." His tone was soft but full of sharpness, as sharp as a sword thrust directly into Lenata's heart.

Lenata's eyes immediately heated up until tears had welled up in her eyes. She blinked several times to prevent the tears from falling. Unfortunately, the tears still forced out until they ran down on her smooth white cheeks.

Meanwhile, Calvino wasn't provoked at all. His sturdy lips seemed to carve a smirk. He simultaneously brought his face closer in a rhythmic whisper. "Don't you think I will be fooled by your crocodile tears, Lena. Wipe your tears right now!"

Couldn't stand Calvino's attitude, Lenata immediately stood up. Calvino looked at her with a hurt look.

"Can't you just appreciate my effort, huh? I also have a busy schedule like you. But for the sake of saving our relationship from a mistress, I've taken the time to come all the way here."

The patience that Calvino had been trying to suppress for a long time finally exploded. The outburst of emotion couldn't be contained until it hit the table roughly. No doubt, everyone who was there was shocked.

"Stop talking about mistress. How many times do I have to say that there's no other woman between us? Absolutely not, Miss Lenata!"

"But it's your attitude that makes me believe that there's another woman among us. The proof is that you have no respect at all for my efforts all the way from London to see you."

"I didn't even ask you to come here." He snapped with a scornful look.

"At least appreciate my efforts!" Lenata snapped in frustration.

Infuriated by Lenata's attitude which didn't reflect the attitude of a respectable woman, Calvino's emotions were getting out of control.

Not wanting to be the target of the paparazzi by reporting the disgusting incident tonight, He immediately dragged Lenata's arm.

Calvino continued to walk wide towards his favorite car. He no longer cared about Lenata, who was limping due to her high heels.

He then threw Lenata into the car roughly. After that, he drove his favorite at high-speed to his apartment.

It wasn't without reason that Calvino brought Lenata to his apartment. He thought the only private place was his apartment.

This place has a special elevator that would take them to the floor where the billionaire's room was located. That way, the privacy of the billionaire would be maintained.

"Come in!" He pushed Lenata's thin body so hard that she fell to the floor.

Not accepting being treated rudely has forced Lenata to look up with a look of hatred. "You've turned very rude, Vin. What did I do wrong that you treated me with contempt like this, huh? I don't accept being treated this way…"

"Your brazenness deserves to be treated with contempt, Miss Lenata!" His tone was sharp with the emphasis on each word. Not only that, his brown silhouettes turned as dark as the color of blood.

Even so, it didn't scare Lenata at all. She was already so burned into the emotion that she didn't care that tonight's fight would escalate into the destruction of their relationship that had existed for years.

"You've turned so rude that I don't even see the soft side in you anymore. So don't ever blame me if I think that you have another woman."
