The two got out of the car and entered the elevator, when Alba suddenly asked curiously:
-Did Javier ever touch your hand?
Micaela was a little surprised, she didn’t expect her to ask about Javier.
Only when they entered the house, Micaela answered her:
-Javier was the only friend who got along with me during high school.
Alba was only surprised for a moment and then she understood.
She was the best student in the whole school and she was very pretty, so the others must have been jealous of her.
She didn’t have many friends because at that time she was introverted and didn’t like to hang out with people who were doing poorly in school.
Only Javier was willing to play with her, so they became good friends.
-Once, I don’t know if she tried to hold my hand intentionally or not, but I avoided it, and since then no such thing has happened. After the entrance exams, he left the country and I never heard from him again.
Alba was not surprised, but felt that Javier was too pitiful. He had liked her for so long, but he had not even touched her hand….
Micaela went on to say:
-I was surprised to learn today that he and Marcos are cousins, not only do they look alike, they also behave somewhat alike…..
Alba understood.
-They both like you, don’t they?
-Don’t get me wrong, Javier, even if he really had some thoughts about me back then, it’s all over now. Don’t think nonsense.
Then Micaela took Alba’s iPad and watched the video she had recorded today.
Alba didn’t think so.
Javier’s intentions towards Micaela were not pure, but his performance today did not prove it.
On the other hand, neither of them could compete with Carlos.
The two enjoyed a rare lazy afternoon, Micaela found some of her favorite books from the study while Alba interacted with her fans on Facebook for a while. After dinner, the call came from Carlos:
-You’re going to the graduation ceremony tomorrow, right?
-Yes, Alba has already taken care of that and I’ll be back as soon as I’ve attended the necessary ceremony.
Carlos nodded, he had also explained the school, not allowing any suspicious characters to enter the campus.
-Honey, this is the last day of your career on campus. You don’t have to worry because I have arranged for someone to protect you, you can participate in whatever activities you want.
Micaela loved the way he took care of her, even just hearing his voice excited her too.
-You must be there for the evening meeting -Carlos said.
-Why? -Micaela was a little confused.
-I have a special gift for you.
-What special gift? -Micaela was a little curious.
-You’ll know it at that moment, I have other things to do, bye.
Micaela obediently preferred not to ask any more…
-Honey…
Carlos called suddenly in a low voice.
Micaela blushed slightly as she answered in a low voice.
-Call me,” Carlos ordered.
Micaela was a little puzzled, but still obediently called his name.
But Carlos was a little upset.
-It’s not this.
Micaela immediately understood what he meant, she looked towards Alba’s room, who had gone upstairs to get something and didn’t seem to be willing to come down….
-Husband… -she called softly.
-Again.
-Husband…
-More.
-No more! -Micaela refused.
Carlos laughed and said:
-Honey, I miss you so much, good night.
Carlos insisted that Micaela hang up the phone first, so she had no choice but to hang up first.
Right after she did, Alba came down from upstairs and ran up to her:
-The pictures are here.
-The photos are here and they have already been distributed! The company offers a voluntary payment, most of your fans don’t want you to spend money!
Alba sat down next to Micaela and showed her the iPad:
-Congratulations, you’ve been number one in the headlines for two days, and now you’re being talked about on the Internet with rave reviews! How come you’re so good?
Micaela looked at Alba with gratitude:
-It’s all thanks to you, you’re doing all the work?
-You’re welcome, it’s also what you have to get!
Alba’s phone rang, she picked it up and immediately hung up.
Micaela was a little curious:
-Who is it?
Alba looked at Micaela with some helplessness and said:
-I am really so depressed, you are protected well by Mr. Aguayo, but I?
Alba pretended she was about to cry.
-What’s wrong? Don’t scare me,” Micaela was very anxious.
-You know the unspoken rules, don’t you?
Micaela knew them, but she didn’t have that experience.
“Could it be…?”
-That’s right! Someone is bullying me! You are well protected thanks to Carlos and Mr. Sarmiento. But a very ugly old man is interested in me, which makes me very disgusted…..
Alba felt a little sad when she finished saying this.
Micaela knew that the article was deliberately published by Carlos. In fact, she did not come across anything that bothered her….
-When I came into your room last night, I heard you scolding someone on the phone, was it this person?
Alba nodded her head.
-Do you know who it is? It’s the old man who asked me who I was when we had dinner together last night.
Micaela remembered him. It was a man who could even be Alba’s father!
