Bianca lifted the bouquet with both hands and tossed it to Micaela and Alba’s position.
The crowd shouted, and the bouquet was transferred several times in people’s hands.
Carlos felt a little worried that she might get hurt. But he also hoped that she would be able to grab it so they could get married sooner.
But Ernesto was screaming with excitement:
-Alba, cheer up!
Suddenly, it was not known who slapped him, the bouquet went flying.
The people on the stage could clearly see that the bouquet fell into the arms of a person sitting on the side. What a coincidence, it was a girl!
The girl looked at the bouquet that had suddenly appeared in her hand and gasped.
“I haven’t planned to get married yet!”
Micaela and Alba returned to the stage, both with a happy smile.
-That’s very interesting and fun,” Alba said.
Micaela nodded. Carlos took her hand and asked quietly:
-Did it hurt?
-I’m not that fragile…. -Micaela answered him.
Micaela suddenly thought of something and looked nervously towards the guests seated at the front of the room….
Carlos laughed and held the little girl a little tighter.
-It’s too late to think about it now, isn’t it?
Micaela unconsciously tried to hide behind Carlos.
How could she forget that Tomas was getting married, Carlos’ family would definitely be at the wedding venue!
-Come on, ready to go up to the banquet hall. I’ll introduce them to you later.
“I’ll meet Carlos’ relatives later…”
She was so nervous that she didn’t pay attention to any of the later parts until she was seated at the banquet table.
Carlos sat next to her. Tomas and Bianca went to change clothes to toast, while Alba and Ernesto took their places at the guest table. The table Micaela was sitting at belonged to Tomas’ relatives.
Micaela did not dare to look around for fear of a glance….
If it were anyone else, Micaela would not be this nervous, she would be able to face it with grace. But the problem was that these were Carlos’ relatives. She wanted to face them in the best state, but she didn’t know what it was….
-Little girl, why are you so nervous? Eat something first,” said Carlos and gave her some soup.
Micaela was so anxious that she didn’t want to eat anything now.
“There are old people here, they haven’t started eating yet, why are you in a hurry? I seem to be being rude.”
When Micaela wanted to talk it over with Carlos, a soft female voice sounded next to her:
-Miss Noboa, you are even more beautiful than on television!
Micaela hurried to smile and look at her, it was a lady in her forties who was dressed very modestly.
-Thank you.
-From now on we are all family, I am Carlos’ aunt Carolina.
-Hello, Aunt Carolina,” Micaela hurried to say hello.
After a moment she reacted again and tried to take back what she had just said.
“I’m not married to Carlos yet, so it’s not appropriate to call like that.”
Carlos couldn’t help but smile at the sight of her and thought she was very cute.
Everyone in the room was stunned, including Carlos’ grandfather, Victor Aguayo, and his father, Matthew Aguayo.
They didn’t know how long it had been since they had seen Carlos smile….
The man next to that aunt said:
-Hello Miss Noboa, I am Carlos’ uncle Ramon.
Micaela felt even more nervous and looked at Carlos.
-Call him Tio Ramon,” Carlos said.
Micaela blushed even more, but when Carlos said this, she also looked at Ramon and greeted him respectfully.
-All right, I have to give you a big red package! -Ramon smiled and said.
As he said this, he lowered his head and took out his wallet…..
How many years had it been since he had heard Carlos call him Tio Ramon, he was so excited he wanted to cry. He would like to thank Micaela.
He wrapped a super thick red package and handed it to her.
-Uncle Ramon, it’s really not necessary…. -Micaela blushed and rashly refused:
Everyone said to take it. It was what she deserved.
She looked at Carlos who nodded before he was too embarrassed to take it.
All the people sitting around greeted Micaela one by one, and they all took the initiative to introduce themselves. Each person gave a red packet to Micaela….
The two people she had not greeted were Carlos’ father and grandfather.
At this point Matthew, who had always been a reigning figure in the mall, really had a nervous edge to him!
Carlos was his son, but because of that incident, he left Salamentro for many years and hadn’t called him dad since. If it weren’t for Tomas, he probably would never have returned to Salamentro.
Micaela also guessed that she was about to face Carlos’ father and grandfather.
They looked very much alike, all three had handsome facial features.
Seeing Carlos’ father’s desire to speak, Micaela instantly understood, she looked at Carlos, but did not speak at all.
Carlos also looked at Micaela. Less than a minute later, Carlos sat up straight and said to his father:
-Dad, this is my girlfriend, Micaela.
Matthew sighed with relief and guessed that the incident no longer mattered to him.
-Hi, Grandpa,” Carlos looked back at his grandfather.
Victor smiled and nodded to Micaela.
-Hello, Grandfather Aguayo, Mr. Matthew,” Micaela replied.
Victor didn’t seem very happy about that. How come he had to call him Abuelo Aguayo when it was about him?
Carolina said with a smile:
-Papa, after all, Micaela is a girl, she hasn’t married Carlos yet. Look, the one who should call you Grandpa Aguayo is here!
Tomas approached holding Bianca’s hand.
With his addition, the atmosphere at the wine table became livelier. Everyone divided their attention towards the new couple. Micaela also let go of her tense nerves a bit and looked at Carlos.
“He had just called his father and grandfather, his ears are red. I wonder if he notices it himself.”
She was amused that he felt so embarrassed at times.
-Micaela, wait and see what I’ll do to you in the evening -Carlos leaned close to Micaela’s ear and said.
