Bianca was a little touched to see Katarina was no longer angry at herself for the deception and apologized sincerely:
-Katarina, I’m so sorry I lied to you…..
-Bianca, it’s all over now and you don’t need to feel so guilty. Come on, let’s drink a toast! Come on, Carlos, Tomas.
The two men wisely raised their glasses, and the five of them clinked their glasses softly, and Katarina suddenly said, smiling mysteriously:
-May everyone in your family be happy and successful!
Then she looked at Tomas and Bianca intentionally.
Micaela blushed slightly when she heard what her friend said.
Bianca was a little sad and embarrassed, but without knowing why, suddenly, she didn’t feel as desperate as before….
Everyone present took a sip of the drink in their respective glasses.
Tomas suddenly looked at Micaela and called out to her:
-Sister-in-law!
-Yes? What is it?
Micaela answered unconsciously, and looked up at Tomas. And after a good while, she realized that she had just said “yes”.
Carlos couldn’t help but smile happily thinking that his darling was always so naive and charming.
He leaned closer and whispered in a soft voice:
-Honey, you’ve done very well. Keep it up, okay?
Micaela wanted to blurt out profanities to Carlos on the spot, but she restrained herself!
She looked at Tomas and said:
-Tomas, please don’t call me that in the future.
Carlos drew a mysterious smile on his lips.
“Why can’t Tomas call you by sister-in-law? Honey, you’re very rebellious, huh?”
At Carlos being so affectionate and gentle with Micaela with a happy expression she had never seen before, Bianca vaguely felt it was time to let Carlos go. She just wanted him to be happy, even if it wasn’t with her.
Then she unconsciously looked at Tomas next to her, but saw that he was showing a pleasant smile towards Micaela. That smile was like the sun in winter, dazzling and charming!
Carlos let me call you “sister-in-law”, I have to listen to him!
-But I remember that you told me clearly that I was particularly rebellious since I was a child and that I always disagreed with Carlos.
Wow! Sister-in-law, you seem to have a very good memory. This was said in Celotierra’s private room when I saw you for the first time,” Tomas said with admiration, but suddenly he felt that someone was looking at him next to him and unconsciously turned his head.
Tomas, who was still peeling lychees, very naturally put the well peeled ones on Bianca’s plate.
Bianca’s pulse suddenly quickened and she looked away shyly.
Looking at Tomas being so considerate to Bianca, Katarina sketched a faint smile and mentally said to herself:
“Wow, the two of you seem like an ideal couple too.”
On the other side, Carlos looked affectionately at his Micela and pushed the silverware on the table inward so that it wouldn’t stain his sweetheart’s straight hair.
At that moment, the man whom Bianca had groomed approached and said to Micaela with an excited face:
-Miss Noboa, I am a fan of yours, could I have your autograph?
Katarina was a little anxious and wanted to tell Micaela to ignore him, but as soon as this man made his request to Micaela, a lot of people, both men and women, gathered around the table with much excitement, saying:
-Miss Noboa, please sign an autograph for me, too!
-You are so much prettier in person than you look on TV, I love you so much!
-I’m so lucky to find you here today!
-I’ve seen the news and I know that you are going to appear in the fashion show organized at the Time Square tomorrow, I will definitely go to see your catwalk!
***
Micaela felt quite surprised by the people’s enthusiasm. Carlos made a gesture to Tomas, who instantly stood up calmly:
-There is no problem. Today, Micaela can satisfy everyone’s wish, please support our Micaela more in the future, ok?
Then Tomas took all the notebooks one by one handed to him by the supporters, and Katarina immediately cleared the table in front of Micaela to give up the space for those notebooks, photos and among other things that a signature can be left.
After taking the pen that was handed to her, Micaela began to sign seriously.
-Miss Noboa, is that your boyfriend sitting next to you? -Suddenly a voice rang out.
Carlos looked up, looked at that person and asked in turn:
-What do you think?
-Wow, it’s definitely Miss Noboa’s boyfriend.
-Yes, I just saw them holding hands, it’s super romantic!
-You two look like a perfect couple!
-Oh, how envious I am.
Hearing the words of those people, Micaela stopped her signing act and blushed a little.
Katarina stood up and said loudly:
-Friends, you are all Micaela’s fans, so I hope you won’t cause any inconvenience to her. According to the contract that Micaela signed with Brillantella, during the period of validity of the contract, Micaela cannot develop love relationships, so please keep this secret for Micaela, okay?
Katarina’s implication was that not everything that happened in this place today could be published on social networks.
A single celebrity could usually attract more followers and they all understood this very well, so, one after another, they nodded their heads.
-No problem!
-Miss Noboa, don’t worry, I will definitely keep this secret for you!
-I am a hacker. Whoever dares to expose Micaela’s secret, I will surely take out all your personal information!
***
Micaela was very moved to hear the words of her followers. Tomas gave back to the fans all the notebooks that Micaela had left her signature, but the people who came to ask for her signature became more and more.
Bianca was sitting quietly in her chair, looking at Micaela, who was surrounded by her fans, and Carlos, who was sitting next to her and looking at Micaela smiling with eyes full of tenderness and sweetness.
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around the table and could smell different strong perfumes, Micaela got up from her seat and said loudly to her fans:
-Go away everyone, okay? It’s not right that so many people are boisterously clustered here, I’ll be sure to send an autographed photo to everyone who follows me in the future, and to show my apologies, let me play a piano piece for all of you!
In the center of the room, stood a white piano.
The crowd immediately made way for Micaela and shouted, animated:
-Miss Noboa also knows how to play the piano? How talented!
-No wonder she has such a good character!
***
Carlos knew that his sweetheart was protecting him himself.
He got up from his chair to give way to her, and Micaela got out and went straight to the piano. Katarina also stood up hurriedly and followed her friend.
That large group of fans, immediately made their way to the living room following Micaela.
-Brother, Micaela, she knows you are allergic to perfume, right? -said Tomas.
Carlos nodded, and indicated with a gesture for him to follow Micaela, too.
Tomas glanced at Bianca. If he left, only Bianca and Carlos would be left at the table.
Although he was a little worried, he knew his older brother had a sense of proportion, so he turned and headed for the piano.
Looking at Micaela sitting on the stool in front of the piano, Carlos suddenly thought of something, pulled out his cell phone and called Diego:
-Go and choose two top quality pianos, and send one to Nyisrenda, and the other to Barrio Fanslan.
