Ernesto was undecided for a while, but finally returned home.
It was 2 a. m. in Teladia, and if he went to Barrio Fanslan to pick up Alba, he would have to wake her up again.
So he decided it would be a good idea to go pick Alba up early the next day.
When he pushed open the door of his house, Ernesto still felt quite lost. He hadn’t been alone in the house since Alba moved in, he hadn’t felt lonely living alone before, but now he felt the loneliness creeping up on him from all sides….
He regretted that he should have gone to find Alba or stayed there for the night, instead of feeling so lost.
“Hey, it’s very uncomfortable to be in such a state of distress.”
He closed the door and left his luggage in the foyer. He made his way to his room, leaving the light on, and went straight to his bed.
He ripped off his tie and tossed it away, collapsed on the bed, then a warm, familiar body rolled directly onto his side, soft arms across his chest….
Ernesto held his breath in surprise for a long moment before reaching out carefully and turning on the lamp on the bedside table….
A wave of ecstasy burst in his chest when he saw that the person in his arms was Alba….
“Did she have a premonition that I would be back today? So she waited for me in my bed on purpose? No, it couldn’t be, it wasn’t her style, she wouldn’t have slept in her bed if she knew I was coming back! So, he missed me too, did he?”
With satisfaction, Ernest drew her further into his arms.
“That’s enough, that’s all there is to it, she has me in her heart…”
Ernesto kissed her forehead with satisfaction, he really loved her. The magic of this girl was really great and made him so happy….
The next morning, Alba was surprised to find herself sleeping in Ernesto’s arms.
“He came back out of nowhere in the middle of the night?”
Last night, after her bath at Barrio Fanslan, she tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep, thinking about Ernesto and how happy she would be if he came back to her side to wait for him.
With this in mind, she changed clothes and took a cab back.
As she passed by the man’s room, she unconsciously pushed the door open.
His room had the distinct smell of his body, and she had been smelling it for so long and was so used to it that she got it into her head that she planned to sleep here.
So she lay down and, not to say that sleep immediately struck her, and she slept very peacefully…..
“But who will tell me, why has this man suddenly come back?”
She did not dare to struggle for fear of waking him and could not help but look at him more closely…..
Ernesto suddenly opened his eyes and saw a tenderness in Alba’s eyes. He couldn’t help but feel warmth in his heart and, naturally, he moved closer and kissed her on the lips…..
-Snap!
Alba stepped back very nonchalantly, reached out and pushed him back with her whole palm over his face.
-Ernesto, do you want to die trying to kiss me without brushing your teeth?
Ernesto had tears welling up inside.
“What a weird girlfriend!”
…
Barrio Fanslan.
At the table, Micaela looked airily at the bad man sitting across from her with a clear conscience.
How stupid she was to think it was a dream, and when he nibbled her earlobe and asked in a muffled voice if she was all right, she said with immense generosity.
-Well, anyway….
Sofia came out with the last small plates and, seeing Micaela’s flushed face, asked worriedly.
-Miss Micaela, are you sick and so red in the face?
Micaela almost choked and rushed to Sofia to tell her that she was fine.
Carlos had a warm smile in his deep eyes.
-Will you come to the office with me later?
Micaela shook her head.
-I’m going to rest at home.
The man said seductively:
-My office is also available for a break.
Micaela still wanted to refuse.
-I’m bored with nothing to do there.
Carlos put down the silverware and said with a serious look.
-No, there are plenty of things you can do.
Micaela was a little surprised to think that the only correct thing he had done in his office was to translate French for her, was there a translator for him to do that?
She thought it would be nice to go to Fracimon Nation tomorrow to reacquaint myself with the language, so she readily agreed.
Upon arriving at the Aguayo Group, she discovered that she had been tricked again.
Micaela asked:
-And the French to translate?
Carlos raised an eyebrow:
-Who told you about translating French?
Micaela asked rhetorically, even more puzzled:
-Weren’t you the one who said I had a lot to do?
Carlos gave her a push and made her fall into his arms and kissed her on the cheek.
-You’re only responsible for staying with me, looking at me, kissing me, and that’s all.
Micaela felt like crying, why was this man getting more and more cunning?
-You’re going on a business trip tomorrow, spend the day with me, huh?
Micaela softened that she stayed in his office for half a day. After lunch with him, she said she had to go shopping for some things needed for her visit to Fracimon Nation tomorrow, and he let her go, telling Raul over and over again to keep an eye out for Micaela’s safety.
Raul nodded his head, but shortly after leaving through the doors of Grupo Aguayo he was intercepted by someone Raul could not resist.
Victor Aguayo.
Micaela got out of the car and obediently got into Victor’s car.
-Don’t snitch on Carlos!
The warning was written in Victor’s shrewd eyes.
Raul looked at Micaela, who nodded to him, indicating she was fine with it.
-“Mr. Victor, let me take you to Carlos’ house in Teladia,” said Micaela suddenly.
Victor did nod in that direction.
Micaela gave the driver Nyisrenda’s address.
What she knew about Victor was that he was a very controlling man.
Presumably he wants to control Carlos’ life, and Carlos distrusts Victor, and the relationship between them is not particularly good.
She could only guess that he had certain prejudices when he tried to tell her something at the reception, although Carlos had interrupted him, and that, if she was right, this man would have liked Bianca to be Carlos’ wife, but he did not expect her to end up with Tomas.
True to his style, Victor went straight to the point and said.
-Oh Micaela, you are not worthy of my family!
