Her body temperature was so high that, she could feel even in her pajamas…..
With a little red face, she looked at Ernesto, who had long narrow eyes, a firm nose, and thin but charming lips….
Her long curly hair rested on the pillow, making her face look even smaller and more delicate….
Ernesto found her really beautiful, so he kissed her red lips uncontrollably….
Alba’s eyes widened.
“How dare he really do that!”
When his tongue pushed in, she bit down indifferently.
Ernesto stifled a grunt, but did not pull back.
Alba tasted blood and loosened her grip. In that moment of hesitation, she gave Ernesto the opportunity to go even deeper.
A kiss ended, Ernesto opened his eyes, and saw Alba with tear-filled eyes, and a face of rage. Suddenly he felt a pain in his heart, and discovered that he was the one in love….
Alba was so angry that she was about to cry, and when she felt him let go of her, she immediately tried to throw a slap at him, but he grabbed her wrist, and sat down:
-Don’t hit my face, I have to go to a meeting at the office.
Forcing himself on people was something he didn’t like, but he had just done it.
The words he had said the night before about her trying to fall in love with him were just a joke, he didn’t even take them seriously himself….
But just now, when he saw the tears in her eyes, he realized that he was starting to care about this woman, but she had no feelings for him.
He sat down with his back to her and told her:
-I’m sorry. But I really didn’t do anything to you last night. You were drunk and threw up all over the place, so I asked the hotel manager to come and change your clothes, and I lived in a room next door, but you hugged me and wouldn’t let me go. I wanted to wait for you to go to sleep, but I fell asleep afterwards.
Alba was a little surprised.
“Did I misunderstand again?”
The doorbell rang at that moment. Ernesto got up and Alba realized then that he was wearing yesterday’s pants….
Ernesto returned in a moment, carrying a bag from a dry cleaners. He placed it next to her and looked at her.
Then she was silent.
He opened a bag, took out his own clothes and put them on.
Not only did she throw up yesterday, but she also soiled his clothes, so they were also sent to the dry cleaners together….
Ernesto was a little annoyed and was silent.
He wanted to rub her head, but hastily stopped himself for fear that she would misunderstand him.
He took the car key out of his pocket and handed it to her:
-I’ll give you, the car is downstairs in the parking lot.
Only then Alba looked at him and saw that there were still blood stains at the corner of his mouth.
She didn’t take it, rubbing his head:
-I’m still a little afraid to drive.
Ernesto hesitated for a moment and put it away:
-Okay, I’m leaving.
But Alba ignored him.
Ernesto turned and walked out, closing the bedroom door.
Suddenly remembering that Micaela had to practice for her first catwalk today, Alba raised her head.
“Drinking is a mistake!”
“I won’t drink again!”
She scrambled for her phone, which was on the bedside table, but it had run out of battery.
He slapped his head hard. There was a charger in the car, but Ernesto had taken it with him….
Alba became more upset. She changed her clothes and hurried out. She didn’t know the hotel was Ernesto’s until she went to cancel her check-in.
It was only when I walked out the front door that she realized she was exactly across the street from Moontime, which was also his.
“The hotel is located across the street from the bar, which is a good match for womanizers.”
At this moment, she saw his white Porsche slowly approaching.
“Hasn’t he left yet?”
The car stopped in front of her, and she saw a young stranger, who asked:
-Are you Miss Gilabert? Hello, I’m the chauffeur Mr. Mancebo asked. Where are you going?
Mr. Mancebo?
She got into the car and charged her phone.
By now Micaela should have already gone to the office, so she would go straight there too.
“I hope it’s not too late.”
***
Ernesto watched the car drive off before driving off in his own.
At first, he wanted to take her himself, or keep the car keys, so he would have a chance to ask her out next time.
But when he thought about the fact that she had no interest in him, he didn’t want to.
It was time to come to his senses before he fell completely in love with her.
He went back to the company for a meeting, and by the time he was done with the important stuff, it was almost noon, so he called Carlos.
He was also very busy, but he answered the call:
-Were you with Alba all night?
Ernesto was suspicious:
-How do you know?
-Leonardo saw you taking her to the hotel. She’s Micaela’s best friend, don’t mess with her.
-I know, I didn’t do anything. Do you know about yesterday’s accident?
Carlos frowned and said bluntly:
-It’s certain that the murder was committed intentionally. We don’t know the exact number of the car, so they are not yet found. Nor can we be sure whether the target is Alba or Micaela.
Ernesto was almost scared to death and took a deep breath.
“If I hadn’t been in the car yesterday, Alba would have been dead…”
-Are you okay?
Carlos heard him gasp suddenly and asked.
-I’m fine, last night Alba got drunk and said that you forced her to say something, that you would regret it when you found out, and that she was doing it for Micaela’s sake.
