-I’m only interested in my little girl,” Carlos continued.
Micaela’s face blushed, so her voice was very low, the people around should not have heard her.
-Will Leonardo accept that Natalia pretends to be his boyfriend? -she changed the subject.
-Yes.
-How do you know?
-Natalia won’t let him refuse, both she and Leonardo are businessmen, and she will certainly make an offer that will satisfy him and make him say yes.
-Olivia definitely won’t be able to accept that, what should we do? -Micaela said.
Carlos thought that Micaela was really sad for her best friend and said.
-This is a test for them. If Leonardo really doesn’t like Olivia, do you want to see her with someone like that?
-He’s your good friend, do you think he’s that kind of person?
-People change all the time. Little girl, remember that.
Micaela felt her mood getting heavier.
Carlos suddenly pulled Micaela directly into his arms and said:
-But, my feelings for you will never change.
Micaela was moved and hugged Carlos tightly.
-There is nothing more for us here, so we went out.
-Is that okay? -Micaela asked in surprise.
-Of course.
Carlos never waited for the party to end.
Then, Carlos told Don Nunez and left first with Micaela.
Getting into the car, Diego started the car and drove off.
Micaela suddenly remembered Carlos’ allergy to perfume and touched Carlos’ forehead with some nervousness.
-I’m sorry, I forgot you’re allergic to perfume, are you uncomfortable?
She didn’t notice Carlos’s reaction of being uncomfortable at all, so she didn’t even think that….
Carlos reached down and held her hand in his.
-Don’t worry, I’m fine.
After a pause, he said.
-As long as you are by my side, I can only smell the scent of your body.
Before, when he attended banquets, he had a hard time when he entered the room and came in contact with the various perfumes in the air, but today, he only felt uncomfortable during the moment when he left her side for Micaela, and the rest of the time, it was normal.
-That amazing? -Micaela said.
Carlos nodded.
Diego remembered what he had asked Carlos to explain and hurried to say:
-Mr. Aguayo, the matter you asked me to investigate has come to a port.
-Tell me.
-Miss Nunez has had frequent contact with a man in the last two years, it must be her boyfriend. The man was abroad before and has recently returned. Miss Nunez is keeping a low profile, it seems it is to protect him and there are still no details about him.
Carlos thought he was thinking too much after hearing that and said:
-There is no need to check further.
Natalia was his business partner and friend, and since she didn’t want to announce it, he naturally respected her decision.
Originally, he thought that the last time he was hurt that incident had something to do with Natalia, but now it seems not. Since she had someone she liked, there was no need to. Only now the trail to track down the killer was broken again….
Carlos also didn’t want it to be her, after all, she was an excellent partner.
Only that she would have to find the murderer again by other means.
Returning to Barrio Fanslan, when Micaela changed her shoes, she saw her dress and makeup in the mirror, especially her painted lips, and suddenly wanted to play a little joke. She turned around, grabbed Carlos from behind and stood on her tiptoes to give him a strong kiss on the cheek….
A bright red lipstick mark on her face….
Carlos put his arm around her to continue, but Micaela suddenly said:
-I’m so hungry I haven’t even eaten anything.
-Go and change, I’m going to cook a midnight snack -Carlos stopped and let her go.
It was almost ten o’clock, Sofia had already rested and Carlos didn’t want to disturb her.
-Can you? -Micaela was very surprised and asked.
Carlos suddenly grabbed her and leaned her against the wall while he said in an extraordinarily seductive voice:
-Little girl, this topic seems we have discussed it more than once, you should know it well…..
Micaela blushed instantly.
Carlos smelled the fragrance of her body, thought about what he had said in the office this afternoon and felt he could hardly control his movement.
“The little one is still hungry…”
This thought made Carlos vigorously resist the idea of doing anything to her.
-Go change her clothes, okay?
Looking again at her snow-white neck and her delicate collarbones dangling in front of his eyes, he calculated that he couldn’t get her to eat a proper dinner….
Micaela then went upstairs, taking off her make-up and putting on her robe before going downstairs.
She walked into the kitchen, saw that Carlos was cooking noodles, with washed shrimp, vegetables and mushrooms on the table.
Micaela thought of that time, cooking seafood noodles with Carlos, she taught him how to kill shrimp, he was smart and learned it in one sitting.
Looking at the ingredients, “Carlos is also making seafood noodles today?”
Micaela reached out to help.
Carlos turned around to stop him and said with a commanding tone of command:
-Go wait outside.
When Micaela looked up and saw that lipstick mark on his cheek, she was inexplicably happy, reached for her phone and took a picture.
Carlos didn’t know what to do and cooperated by letting her take the picture.
She secretly smiled and said nothing.
“This photo can be treasured…”
The Facebook alert popped up on the top of the phone suddenly.
It was a message from Olivia:
-You know everything, don’t you?
Micaela didn’t know how to respond, as Olivia’s messages kept popping up:
-Actually, I listened to all the conversations she had with her mother.
-Natalia’s matchmaking banquet, the man doesn’t bring his girlfriend means he’s single and has a chance.
-She lied to me saying it was a normal banquet and that it was not convenient to bring a female companion, saying she would surely be back at ten o’clock, I am waiting for her to give me an explanation.
Micaela even more did not know how to respond….
-Micaela, I really envy you. The affection Mr. Aguayo has for you is incomparable.
-If I need your help, will you help me?
-Yes, as long as I can help, I will definitely help you,” Micaela rushed to answer.
Olivia sent a smiling face and said:
-Thank you, Micaela.
Micaela sent a sentence of nothing and another sentence of no thought nonsense, but Olivia didn’t reply.
When Carlos came out with two bowls of noodles, Micaela hung up her phone and sat down at the table.
Very hungry, Micaela immediately grabbed a soup spoon and took a sip of the soup, instantly amazed that the taste was no worse at all than what she had cooked.
-Carlos, you have conquered my heart, do you want to conquer my stomach again?
-Haven’t I conquered your body? -Carlos asked in turn.
