After a pause, Micaela asked again curiously:
-Why are you looking at me like this?
Carlos couldn’t help but frown, feeling a little dejected.
“It doesn’t matter. Even if my Mica has forgotten me, I’ll be able to make her fall in love with me again.”
Inwardly, however, Carlos was a little annoyed by such an outcome. The reason he had brought her Micaela to Fracimon Nation for treatment was because deep down he was convinced that she would not forget him.
“A completely opposite outcome? Mica has forgotten me so easily? From the meeting to last night’s intimacy, it took me so long to get her to accept me and open her heart to me, does it all remain in vain now?”
Alba was also incredulous.
“Didn’t Dr. Wade say that the probability of affecting the actual memory is very low, how can that be so?”
Micaela looked around, finally rested her gaze on the man, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and asked suddenly:
-Carlos, I’m already very hungry – when are we going to eat?
Hearing her words, both Diego and Alba let out a gasp.
Ernesto, in turn, shouted directly out loud:
-What the hell is going on?
Carlos was astonished, grabbed Micaela’s hand and asked with extreme joy:
-Honey, what did you just call me?
Looking at the man’s excited face, Micaela suddenly blushed, bit her lower lip and said shyly with her head down:
-Carlos, don’t be so hateful! Alba and the others are present here….
Carlos remembered in an instant that the night before he had asked her to call him by “my sweetheart” when they made love.
“It turns out that my sweetheart relates my question to our mad passion last night, so her memory hasn’t been affected!”
Alba stood up, removed Micaela’s hand from Carlos’ grip, then excitedly hugged Micaela:
-Mica, you still remember me! You scared me so much.
Micaela hugged her too. Although she didn’t know why she was so excited, she apologized when she heard her say she was scared:
-Alba, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you.
Carlos was much more relieved inside to see that the woman still remembered him himself and indicated to Diego to look for Wade.
Diego immediately left to find Wade, and on the way back he had briefly told her about Micaela’s reaction after waking up.
Seeing the doctor enter, Alba let go of her friend, but continued to hold her hand.
Wade glanced at Micaela and asked in English:
-Miss pretty lady, what’s your name?
Micaela was a bit puzzled, but answered obediently:
-My name is Micaela Noboa.
-Could you tell me your profession?
Micaela frowned and looked with confusion at Alba and Carlos around her before saying again:
-I’m not a model?
Wade nodded with satisfaction and turned to Carlos smiling:
-Mr. Aguayo, congratulations! Micaela is very lucky that her memory is not affected. It’s just that her mind is a little fuzzy from just waking up. Don’t worry. She’ll be able to sort out her jumbled thoughts after a while.
After hearing the doctor’s diagnosis, everyone was completely reassured.
Ernesto asked Wade:
-So, can we leave the hospital now? Micela says she is very hungry. We can go to lunch, right?
Alba rolled her eyes at him and said:
-You’re the one who’s hungry, aren’t you? Don’t use Mica as an excuse!
Ernesto admitted frankly:
-Even though it’s now exactly lunchtime here, with the time difference between Anlandana and Fracimon Nation, we’ve actually already delayed lunch by three hours, you understand?
Carlos, who was also worried that Micaela was hungry, immediately instructed Diego to arrange a place for lunch.
Wade nodded and replied:
-Yes, yes, yes, yes, you can leave the hospital any time you want, Miss Noboa, you are a beautiful woman favored by the Goddess of Fortune!
Micaela smiled awkwardly without understanding and thanked the doctor.
Carlos helped Micaela off the bed. When she reached the hospital entrance, looking at the scenery outside and the three luxury cars, Micaela suddenly shouted:
-Now I remember! We are in the Fracimon Nation, you accompanied me to receive the treatment to recover my memory!
Alba eagerly took her friend’s hand, almost jumped for joy and asked:
-Mica, do you remember how we got here?
Without a second thought, Micaela answered:
-We came by private plane!
-What did we do yesterday?
-We finished recording the commercial spot for Los Davalos.
-How nice! Mica, you remembered everything….
The group went to the famous Fracimon Nation fine dining revolving restaurant.
Through the 70th floor window, the entire landscape outside could be contemplated.
Taking advantage of the fact that the waiter had not yet served their food, Micaela went to the bathroom. When she came out, she saw Carlos leaning against the corridor wall, waiting. She stopped in her tracks and looked at the man with her heart beating a little faster.
Today, he was wearing a white shirt and black pants. The style was simple, but he looked noble and handsome.
He was leaning against the wall, with his hands tucked in his pants pockets and his head tilted slightly upward, enhancing his handsome profile.
As if sensing Micaela’s gaze, Carlos turned his head in her direction.
As he met her deep-set eyes, Micaela’s pulse raced even faster.
Carlos quirked a soft smile at the corners of his lips and opened his arms to her.
Micaela, without even the slightest hesitation, ran up to him and jumped into his embrace. And Carlos held the woman firmly in his arms.
He very gently caressed her head with one hand and whispered in her ear:
-Mica, you gave me a big scare at the hospital…..
Micaela wrapped her arms around the man’s strong waist, smelling his familiar scent, and said shyly:
-Didn’t you tell me that even if I forget you, you have the confidence to make me fall in love with you again? Then, what were you afraid of?
Carlos answered lowering his voice:
-Of course I was afraid because I wasn’t sure how long it would take you to fall in love with me again. I was afraid that my pleasure with you in bed would be affected, too. After all, my baby you are so “delicious” that I can’t hold back my appetite anymore after tasting you…..
Micaela blushed and wanted to push the man away.
-Carlos, you are so bad!
Instead of letting her go, he hugged her, turned around and held her against the wall, this way her forehead pressed against his. Then he whispered in a provocative tone in her ear:
-Don’t you like a “wicked” me, eh?
Micaela saw someone approaching, became very embarrassed and hurried the man:
-Let go of me now. Someone is getting closer.
However, Carlos did not move a muscle and said:
-I said I would never leave you.
Micaela turned her head away and said in a thin, soft voice:
-They are waiting for us at the restaurant.
Carlos was filled with joy at the sight of her flushed and anxious little face. What he liked most was her shy look.
-Give me a kiss and let’s go back to the dining room.
Micaela looked around, saw that there were several foreigners, eyeing them, and hurriedly lowered her head in shame.
-No, they are watching us. I’ll kiss you when we get home, okay?
However, Carlos said to her with a mischievous tone:
-When we get back, what I want will be more than a kiss…
