Albina had never seen so many platycodons in her life. The villa’s huge garden looked like a sea of white flowers, and the flowers swayed in the morning breeze. This scene was as beautiful and incredible as a dream.
She entered the garden quite in awe, she felt that the air around her was sticky with the sweet fragrance of the flowers.
Her cheeks looked so beautiful at this moment, and a bright smile appeared at the corners of her lips. She bent down and lightly touched the flower buds in front of her.
The petals were very delicate and covered with dew. This garden was truly like paradise.
-Albina,” Miguel called out to her in a hoarse voice.
She turned unconsciously and then heard the sound of the shutter. The image of her standing in the flower-filled garden and turning around was captured by the camera.
Miguel looked at the picture, and could not contain himself. He lightly touched the girl’s cheek on the screen and sighed.
Seeing this photo, he wanted her to stay here even more. He wanted to see her every day when she woke up, and he wanted to live with her in this place away from the hustle and bustle.
But after thinking for a moment, Miguel stopped with that idea and walked over to her with the camera to show her the photo.
She walked over to take a look. Miguel’s photo technicians were very good, she came out very pretty in the picture.
Seeing that she liked it, he smiled and said:
-When I get the photo printed, I will give it to you.
Albina nodded her head, looked at the garden and asked him:
-Why do you have so many white platycodons in this place?
-Have you forgotten? Last night at dinner I told you that I transplanted them,” Miguel explained patiently while he stared at her tenderly.
She was taken aback for a few seconds. When he said this last night, she just thought he had transplanted a few and had them planted in pots. She never imagined he had transplanted so many platycodons for her.
What he had done was so heavy that it made her feel a little overwhelmed, and she was speechless.
Miguel realized how she felt, lowered his head and smiled.
-I didn’t do it to make you thank me, I just want to make you happy. The fact that you liked it, I’m already very happy.
His words did not make her feel relieved, but rather increased her guilt.
She didn’t understand why Miguel liked her so much. He deserved someone better than her.
Precisely, the appearance of the cook broke the embarrassing situation between the two of them.
He had a vacant expression, and said respectfully:
-Mr. Miguel, Miss Albina, breakfast is ready.
Miguel nodded as a sign that he had received his news, then took Albina’s wrist and led her back to the living room.
This time she didn’t try to push him away because she thought the reason he was doing this might be that he was afraid she would run away.
Actually, she didn’t need to be so alert. Because there were so many bodyguards in the villa, and even if Miguel was sick, she would not be able to escape.
Besides, this villa was located in a remote place. She did not know where she could go.
Miguel had specially told the cook to prepare something light. Apart from some fresh dishes, he prepared a plate full of fresh apricots for her.
They were the ones he wanted to eat last night, it turned out that Miguel had sent someone to bring some during the night. To bring these apricots, he spent a lot of effort, because he had to avoid attracting the attention of the Santangel family and his family.
However, he was very happy to see her grimacing because the apricots were very sour. It seemed to him that his effort had not been in vain.
After breakfast, Albina lowered her head and kept thinking about how to convince him to let her go.
Suddenly, Miguel said to her:
-Albina, can you go shopping with me today?
She was surprised by what he had said. Unexpectedly, he invited her to go shopping. It would be in a public place, and with many people. Even if they went out with bodyguards, with just one slip-up, she could escape.
With his vigilant and meticulous character, how would he be willing to do this?
As if seeing her surprise, Miguel smiled and said quietly:
-I came here without bringing my clothes, so I’m still in yesterday’s clothes. You are a designer and you have excellent taste, can you help me buy clothes?
She opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
“He has prepared so many clothes for me in the closet, and even all of them are new. How could I have not considered his and not brought a single garment? Besides…”
Thinking about that, she turned her head and glanced at the bodyguards at the door. Even if he didn’t have any clothes, she could send them to buy them, but now she wanted to take her to go shopping.
In just an instant, she understood what Miguel was planning.
She sighed, stood up and hugged him without saying a word, resting her forehead on his shoulder.
Miguel’s body stiffened, and his heart warmed. He clenched his fingers tightly and his throat was so dry that he couldn’t say anything.
He opened and closed his fingers many times, and finally he could not contain himself, and gently wrapped his fingers around her waist, as if he were holding his most beloved treasure.
Michael felt the slender body in his arms, his nose stuck, and he buried his face in her shoulders for fear that he would see her tears.
After a while, she felt a warm liquid seep into the thin fabric over her shoulders, and it felt like the liquid had penetrated her heart. She felt like crying too.
After only a short while, Miguel took the initiative to release her. Her eyes were still slightly red. He didn’t seem to have cried by enclosing his face in Albina’s shoulders.
-When you’re ready, let’s go.
Albina smiled and nodded her head.
When he got into the car, she leaned against the window and looked out. The sun was blazing overhead and she didn’t know where Miguel found this place. They had been on the road for half an hour already, and he hadn’t seen anyone.
-Where are we? -She could not contain herself, she looked at Miguel and asked him.
-We are in Sogen City. You didn’t imagine there was such a place in such a lively city, did you? -he explained.
She nodded her head, it turned out that the most dangerous place was also the safest place. Miguel had it all well thought out. He feared that those who were looking for them would think they had left Sogen City.
He helped her lift the blanket placed on her legs because it was about to fall off, and looked depressed at her flat belly.
She did not notice his gaze. By that time, she could already see some tall buildings, and they should have entered the residential area.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a shopping center.
Miguel helped her out of the car by supporting her with his arms. Some bodyguards wanted to follow them, but he stopped them with a look.
-Wait for us at the door. We’ll be back when we’re done.
The bodyguards looked at each other and stopped.
Albina took his arm and squeezed his fingers a little.
Miguel sensed her nervousness, lowered his head and patted her back tenderly and then led her to the mall.
She followed him silently with a slightly complicated expression. In contrast, Miguel looked very cheerful and excited, it seemed that he really came for shopping. He took her to several skin care stores, jewelry stores and women’s clothing stores.
He was so excited, as if he was really here with his girlfriend.
Seeing his eyes full of joy, she could finally let out a sigh, laughed and took him to the stores she was interested in.
Seeing her skirt being lifted by her movements, and the laughter on her face, Miguel smiled. Her beautiful face reflected tenderness and there was no more sadness.
After a while, Miguel already had many large and small bags in his hands. Albina took him by the arm and asked him with some embarrassment.
-Are they heavy?
He shook his head, looked at her delicate fingers on his arm, and his eyes lit up with happiness.
-No, not at all.
Finally, they arrived at a men’s clothing store. Albina went in first, but Miguel lingered at the door for a long time before entering.
As soon as the two entered the store, a saleswoman approached them.
They were both good looking, and dressed well.
The saleswoman became very excited, looked at Albina and asked:
-Miss, you can see the clothes here, they are the new models in our store. Your husband is tall and has a very good figure. They should fit him very well.
Hearing her words, Miguel looked at her nervously and unconsciously wanted to explain.
-No, we are not…
Unexpectedly, Albina interrupted him, smiled and said to the saleswoman:
-Okay, please guide us.
Hearing her words, he looked at her back and froze.
She noticed that he did not follow them, turned around and looked at him with a smile.
-Miguel, what are you doing there? If you don’t come, how will you try on your clothes? -she said sweetly.
He saw her beautiful face, his heart warmed up and it took him a while to smile.
-Okay, I’m coming now,” he said in a hoarse voice.
