Santiago gave a deep sigh and lifted his head to look up at Ariana with slightly reddish eyes.
-Are you sure you like Macos?
Ariana glanced back at Macos and coughed a little embarrassed once.
-It has nothing to do with you.
Even though she hadn’t stated it, Santiago already knew her answer because the eyes couldn’t fool anyone.
In such an embarrassing case, Santiago should leave because his partner was still waiting for him in the office, but his feet seemed to be nailed to the floor and he couldn’t move.
He looked up and asked again in a slightly trembling voice:
-Do I have no hope and no chance?
Ariana frowned and said in an indifferent and imposing voice:
-Santiago, don’t be like that. With your conditions, many girls will like you, so you don’t have to keep chasing me. We’re not suitable.
-But none of them are you. I’ve already known my mistake, I won’t flirt with other girls and take responsibility as a boyfriend and husband. I won’t let you worry.
Santiago said it in a hurry, however, Ariana frowned and interrupted him.
-But it’s already too late.
Late love was worthless. She was no longer in love with him. Maybe Santiago would go and behave like what he promised, but she didn’t care anymore.
Santiago still wanted to say something else, but Macos stood up in front of Ariana to block his gaze.
-Mr. Barrios, your behavior is not appropriate, is it? It is immoral to steal my love in front of me, isn’t it?
He spoke simply, but his gaze was full of caution, which made the atmosphere become serious in an instant.
Santiago controlled his temper when he was with Ariana, however, he remained extremely angry and disgusted with the man who wanted to steal Ariana’s love from him.
Santiago’s look also became unfriendly.
-She hasn’t said she likes you. As long as you are not married to her, I still have a chance. And even if you are married, you can still get divorced.
Ariana didn’t love to hear the word divorce.
She had experienced her parents’ unfortunate marriage, so ever since she understood the love between men and women, she had sworn that she would not get married, or if she did get married, she would never go for a divorce.
However, Santiago had just said what he disliked the most.
-Santiago! -she couldn’t take it anymore and spoke with a little fury- Don’t make me hate you. You must have something to do, we also need to go home, so let’s say goodbye right now.
Then, he pulled Macos’ arm.
Macos always paid attention to Ariana’s feelings. He saw that she was really angry, so he patted her back right away.
-Baby, don’t be mad. You just had a physical and they took a lot of blood, what do I do if you pass out?
Hearing what he said, Santiago changed his expression, took a step forward, grabbed him by the arm and asked:
-What happened? What do you mean by physical exam, why did they take a lot of blood?
They were in the hospital parking lot and absolutely something should happen because Ariana and Macos came up in this place.
Recently, he was sad about their relationship and completely forgot about it.
Macos threw out his hand and said:
-You don’t have to worry about this. Ariana is not feeling well, so we are leaving first.
He bent his body slightly and hugged Ariana horizontally with his arms very tightly.
Ariana didn’t expect his sudden move, she felt her body rising in the air, then she screamed unconsciously and wrapped her arms around his neck.
-You scared the hell out of me.
Macos threw her up and hugged her again with a smile, and frowned saying:
-You haven’t eaten well these two days, have you? Why have you lost so much weight? Look how thin you are, you even look like the wind could carry you away.
-Don’t exaggerate. My weight is more than forty kilos,” Ariana complained quietly.
Macos snapped and said:
-You’re too skinny! You shouldn’t be so thin for your height. You’ve lost weight because you haven’t eaten what I cook these days, haven’t you? Right now we are going to pick up the luggage at the hotel and then go to the supermarket. I have just learned some new dishes and I am going to cook them for you to try. They are all your favorite tastes.
Ariana was very touched, she raised her head to look at his beard and laughed, which looked very sweet.
The two walked away, but Santiago could still hear them discussing what they were going to eat later.
Macos spoke clearly and logically when it came to Ariana’s favorite food. In his words, she could cook all of those dishes and had a specialty of doing so.
Santiago was a bit stunned.
He had even lived with Ariana in the same house, but he didn’t seem to know what Ariana’s favorite food was and what she didn’t love.
He didn’t know how to prepare the dishes. Among his friends, only Umberto could do it and he learned it especially for Albina.
He remembered that Macos didn’t know how to cook either, so did he study it for Ariana?
Santiago looked melancholy, because when he was with Ariana, it seemed that she was always the one who took care of him while he had never thought of learning something for her.
So you could see the difference between Macos and him.
It was no wonder that Ariana was in love with Macos because he was a man who could give her enough sense of security, take into account her tastes and treat her and love her very much.
The two of them drove off and the car disappeared completely.
Only then Santiago slowly drove out of the parking lot with a confused mind.
He always hoped that Ariana would be happy, but now he realized that he himself was not the man who could offer her happiness.
When he arrived at his partner’s office, Santiago was still a little lost in thought.
-You said you were going to be here in a few minutes, didn’t you? It’s been half an hour already, did you climb up?
The partner hooked his shoulder and tapped him, but found that Santiago was unresponsive and his expression was not good.
His eyes were full of surprise.
He had known Santiago for many years and always knew that he was very free because he did not need to worry about the family business and had both the attractive appearance and the powerful and wealthy family, and he also had a lot of ability.
He was chased by girls, and passed through a group of flowers, but not a single leaf stuck to his body and he was unrestrained every day. He was the most enviable person among his peers.
But it was really strange that it seemed that his wife died now.
-What happened to you?
The companion could not help asking.
Santiago stared at him and didn’t speak until much later.
-I’m heartbroken.
-Whew! -The partner gave a sigh, “Do you also cross yourself in love?
He wasn’t the heartbroken type, because there were girls who couldn’t stand Santiago’s capricious character in the past and decided to end the relationship with him, but Santiago still did what he wanted to do without paying attention.
However, this time I really wanted to take a picture of his distressed look and melancholic expression so that other classmates could see it.
This was big news!
Santiago noticed the weird look and finally snapped out of his thoughts. He shook his head to let go of the negative emotions, turned to him and said:
-Help me look into something.
