“The gifts are still in the living room.”
Micaela blushed, looked at Carlos and said seriously.
-Carlos, thank you for the salon you have prepared especially for me, but what will people think of treating me in such a special way?
Carlos raised an eyebrow and said bluntly.
-Envy and jealousy, of course.
Micaela was speechless and paused for a moment before saying.
-Can you keep a low profile?
Carlos hugged her and said:
-There are a lot of male models and actors in Brillantella, if I don’t solve them all at once, should I let them be around you every day where I can’t see them?
Micaela blushed even more and as soon as she saw the car stop she rushed to push Carlos aside to get out, but was dragged by his arm.
Micaela knew what he meant, but Diego was there too….
With a wicked smile, Carlos whispered in her ear:
-If you don’t take the initiative, you’ll probably be late when I do…..
Shy and anxious, Micaela gave him a firm kiss on the cheek and Carlos, although not very satisfied, let her go.
Diego started the car and drove off.
Micaela waited and saw that Alba’s car had also arrived, so she took Alba’s hand and got in with her.
Alba suddenly reacted and immediately stopped and looked back again… exclaiming:
-That’s my car!
Actually, Micaela had just realized this, but did not warn Alba, acting as if she had just reacted and said:
-Yes, why are you letting Ernesto take your car?
-It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter.
With a pang of disgust, Alba and Micaela continued toward the training room, whispering:
-Micaela, I probably won’t be able to drive for a long time, yesterday was a really horrible experience?
She still thinks about it now, if Ernesto hadn’t reacted quickly, she would have died there yesterday….
Micaela took her by the hand and comforted her.
-Don’t be afraid, if you don’t die, you will be blessed!
“I hope so!” Alba nodded her head.
On their way back to the training room they were met by a bunch of models and they all greeted them enthusiastically, both girls were a little flattered.
“Gifts are the quickest way to bring people together!”
The afternoon rehearsal went very well and Eric was happy to announce that everyone could leave early today and take the day off tomorrow to be fit to perform the next day.
The models left one by one.
Eric went to Micaela’s dressing room, but inside the dressing room was another rest room. He didn’t go in to see it, because he was completely fascinated by the dressing table:.
-Oh my God, this place is absolute heaven, the limited edition makeup base, oh, this is really very good!
-Ahhhhhhh, and this, this bar is really great, ah, I want to eat it so badly!
-Wow wow, this, this, this, this I went to the counter specifically to wait three days, but I couldn’t get it?
Micaela laughed at Eric who exclaimed…..
In fact, Micaela didn’t usually wear makeup, most of those cosmetics she didn’t even know what they were called, and she only had the simplest face wash and cream at home….
Alba was also surprised, she knew Eric cared a lot about his skin care, but she didn’t expect him to be so good at cosmetics!
Hearing the assistant, Eric reluctantly walked out, turning many times to look at the pile of things on the table as he walked out of….
Alba saw him leave, closed the door and dragged Micaela to open the gifts:
-Micaela, look what’s here?
“Carlos’ heart for Micaela is enviable…”
Micaela was curious too, so she sat down and began to open the gifts.
There was everything, watches, bracelets, brooches, mugs, chocolates and dolls.
Carlos probably bought everything he saw, which made Micaela laugh and cry….
“Next time, don’t give me so many gifts, Carlos!”
However, Alba was very excited. All these gifts were specially given to Micaela by Carlos, so Alba did not take any of them and just watched as Micaela opened them. Although Micaela’s childhood was not happy, she became really happy after she met Carlos and became a spoiled little princess….
-Well, Alba, it’s your turn, let’s see what your gift is -Micaela looked at Alba with an expectant look.
“Do we have to tell her that the gift is from Ernesto?”
Alba picked up her gift from the table nervously, but feigning calmness, she asked:
-Niña, you asked Carlos to prepare this for me, didn’t you?
But even so, Alba was happy to receive the gift….
Micaela didn’t deny it or admit it, she didn’t like to lie and she wasn’t worried about Alba knowing the truth.
Micaela saw what she had from the box and couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
-Wow, it’s beautiful!
Alba also gasped looking at what she held in her hand….
It was a decorative Christmas glass ball, with colored lights, very pretty.
Alba’s heart was pounding. She loved this gift…
But she could not show too much emotion and said pertinently.
-Well, thank your man for me, it’s a very sincere gift.
Micaela frowned slightly.
“Alba doesn’t seem to like the gift very much, so it’s better not to tell her that Ernesto had chosen it…”
Micaela took the crystal ball and said:
-Alba, put it in your car!
Alba looked away and answered indifferently.
-Of course! -Actually, Alba thought the same thing.
“With this, I should have the courage to drive…”
Micaela’s phone rang at that moment and it was a message from Katarina.
Micaela looked at the screen of her phone, a bit lost in her thoughts….
Alba approached her curiously and asked:
-What’s up?
She looked at her phone screen, it was an image, a screenshot of the surveillance recording to be exact. Next to the cash register of the restaurant where they had eaten with Katarina the night before, a slim man in casual clothes was standing with his back to the camera and his wallet in his hand….
-Is this the guy who paid our bill last night?
