To Be Yours Again-Chapter 221 Someone snitched

There was no way on earth Carla would accept that Lorenzo wanted to be with his cleaner.

How could Lorenzo choose a cleaner over her?

It felt like a huge insult to her.

An insult she couldn’t accept!

So as soon as Lorenzo left, Carla wiped her cheeks, grabbed her bag and hurried out of the house.

She headed straight to Lorenzo’s family’s house. As soon as she got there, she put on the saddest look she could muster.

“Oh, Carla Dear, are you alright?” Allegra, Lorenzo’s mother who had always been fond of her, and had quite the soft spot for her asked.

She was especially kinder to Carla now that she knew Carla was grieving.

“Auntie, I just found out about something but I don’t know if it’s in my place to say.” Carla let out, trying to sound as innocent as possible.

“Go on, sweetheart. You can tell me anything.”

“Lorenzo has been seduced by his cleaner.”

Allegra’s eyes dilated. “What?”

“Anytime I go to his place, I always see her in sexy clothes. I always told him that staff weren’t supposed to dressed like that but he said there was nothing wrong with it if that was how she wanted to dress. But I’m a woman so I know her motives better than anymore. When she’s around him, she’s always batting her lashes and looking all seductive. Each time I pointed it out to him, he’d say I was being paranoid. One day, on my way out, she followed me and warned me not to come by his house anymore. She told me Lorenzo was hers and that I was ruining her chances of being with him. She threatened to send her ghetto friends after me if I didn’t leave Lorenzo alone. She was so angry and I got scared and I didn’t come by his house anymore. But then, all of a sudden, Lorenzo suddenly admitted to have fallen in love with her and said he would even marry her. It’s as if he’s been not only seduced but totally brainwashed by her.”

Allegra was shocked to hear this.

“Why didn’t you tell me about this sooner? You should have told me about how a lowlife had plans of seducing my son.”

Carla held her hands together, pouting. “I didn’t want to seem like I was overstepping. Plus, after she warned me to stay away from him, I was really scared. She must be a dangerous person, Auntie.”

“Dangerous, my foot. I do not know how that slut managed to fool my son but I’m getting rid of her from his life as soon as possible!” Allegra seethed.

Carla bit back a smile.

Yes.

Allegra would surely send that gold digger away for good.

*LORENZO*

I walked into the house and was greeted by the sweet aroma.

Oh, My Danica was cooking for us.

Sighing in delight, I headed for the kitchen and met her stirring something on the wok.

Smiling, I walked over and hugged her from behind.

“You’re home.” She murmured.

“Yeah. I love being home with you.” I replied.

I wouldn’t be home as much from next week though.

My dad had been on a business trip for two months and he just called to tell me that he had been informed I rarely went to the company and when he gets back, he’d not tolerate that anymore.

It was either I become serious with the company affairs or my allowance gets it.

He was coming back next week and I really needed to be serious now.

I might just be twenty and Danica and I might’ve not known each other for long but I was sure I wanted to be with her for a long, long time.

Even marry her.

That was why I needed to become more responsible so I’d be able to take care of my wife and children.

God, was I getting way ahead of myself?

I didn’t know but I loved this feeling.

********

Soon, we were seated on the kitchen island, having dinner.

The doorbell suddenly rang out.

I frowned. I wasn’t expecting anyone.

I stood and headed to get the door. Just as I opened up, I froze.

It was my mom.

What was she doing here?

She rarely visited me.

Plus, I wasn’t ready yet to introduce her to Danica.

I didn’t know how she would feel about Danica so I didn’t want them meeting yet.

I wanted to take my time in showing and proving to her that Danica was a good girl.

“Well, hello to you too, son. Are you not going to let me in?”

I swallowed, realizing I had been standing there, staring at her with dilated eyes.

I swallowed. “Mom...what are you doing here?”

“To see my son, obviously.”

I glanced around, nervously.

“Aren’t I welcomed?”

Not able to think of a good excuse, I let her in.

I might as well just introduce them to each other.

“Hmm, your house smells amazing. What did you cook prepare?”

“I don’t have a cook, I...” Before I could answer that, she headed off to the kitchen.

I hurried after her and watched as her eyes narrowed when she saw Danica sitting on a stool at the kitchen island.

“Who’s this?” She asked.

“Danica, Danica, my mom.” I introduced, awkwardly.

Danica quickly stood up and greeted. “Good evening, Ma.”

My mom eyed her from head to toe and turned to face me.

“Who’s she?”

I knew she wasn’t asking for her name this time.

“Who’s she to you” was obviously the full question.

“My girlfriend.” I replied.

“Your girlfriend?” She snarled. “I thought she was your cleaner?”

I winced. I could now confirm that she obviously knew who Danica was prior to this.

Was that why she was here?

But my mother barely investigated my private life.

It dawned on me that someone snitched.

Damn you, Carla!
