Micaela waited at the back of the stage, as later there was another move that required all the models to come out together.
-Are you all right? -a low voice rang in her ears.
Micaela had a hand covering her chest to keep her clothes from falling off and trying to put some distance between her and him. She didn’t have time to be surprised that the model next to her knew how to speak Spanish.
-Don’t move, I’ll tie a knot in your dress. Now it’s live and you won’t be able to go change your clothes.
Micaela held the dress tightly, turned her head slightly to the side. She saw that he grabbed the straps on both sides and tied a knot in her shoulder. Then he checked her other shoulder very carefully, the one on this side was very strong and would not fall off.
The model knew in his heart that this dress had been worked on by someone.
-Thank you -Micaela was slightly relieved and said softly, she looked down the stage, Carlos was no longer there.
-The shoes are like this, is there a problem?
Micaela unconsciously turned her head, this time looking carefully at the model who helped her, full of gratitude.
-It’s okay, I can do it. Thank you very much, you’ve helped me a lot.
If he hadn’t reacted so quickly a moment ago, she couldn’t even imagine what the consequences would have been for her.
Besides, it was on the live broadcast, so many people were watching, including Carlos….
She thought Carlos must have seen something unusual about her just now because he was a very careful and meticulous person.
Without time for further thought, the models were already walking back to the stage.
The attention of the entire audience was focused on Micaela. Due to the live broadcast, she had to keep walking with one of her shoes with a broken heel.
She walked very well, still elegant and graceful, without being noticed that one of the shoes was broken.
This might have been easy for a professional model, but it was definitely a challenge for Micaela, who had only been in the industry for less than a year and was facing this kind of thing on stage for the first time.
But she behaved perfectly, without a hint of panic.
Eric and Alba felt very nervous, both having just seen that not only was the root of Micaela’s shoe broken, but even her clothes were shredded!
Alba felt very angry, this was definitely something someone had done on purpose!
At the same time, she blamed herself a lot for not having checked properly before.
-Alba, it’s not your fault, the clothes and shoes were made exactly to Micaela’s measurements. Who would have thought something like this would happen. But she is doing well, she will definitely be more famous after this -Eric saw her self-blame and said.
Alba looked at Micaela who was on stage and cried with emotion for her.
-It’s great that Micaela is still so calm in the face of this situation.
-Don’t worry. Carlos is here, no one would dare to harm your best friend.
It was Ernesto, he approached and took Alba in his arms.
Alba felt unable to vent her mixed emotions, so she spoke to him:
-I feel so hard and I want to know who did this to Micaela. But I’m also glad because she behaved perfectly in such a sudden situation.

David spoke very nervously to Carlos:
-Mr. Aguayo, don’t worry. I will definitely give you a satisfactory account.
At that moment a wave of applause came from outside and the catwalk ended.
-Find out who that person is and leave the rest to me,” Carlos said indifferently.
Whoever dared to bully his wife would be made to pay.
All the models came down in an orderly fashion and all of them were astonished to see Carlos. But he just looked at the entrance, waiting for his little girl.
Micaela tried to act as normal as possible while walking. She wasn’t looking for perfection, but if she did she had to do her best.
Finally, out of camera range. Micaela sighed in relief, but the next moment she was embraced by a familiar figure.
Micaela instantly felt a surge of aggression and hugged Carlos screaming:
-I was so scared just a moment ago, why did something so horrible have to happen?
In the live scene, if something like that happened, she would never be able to get out of that shadow for the rest of her life.
She couldn’t keep calm any longer after seeing it.
Carlos hugged her tightly and comforted her:
-It’s all right now, it’s all in the past. It’s my fault for not protecting you, don’t cry…..
All the models were extraordinarily moved when they saw that.
Abril also saw it and thought she should be in trouble because the man looked very powerful.
Micaela controlled her emotions and slowly calmed down.
Carlos squatted down and grabbed Micaela’s ankle. Micaela cooperated obediently and took off her shoes. She blushed a little because there were a lot of people watching them.
All the models were even more envious of Micaela seeing that.
The shoes that Alba handed to Micaela were changed by her, Carlos stood up and said in a low voice:
-Go change your clothes, I’ll take you back later.
Micaela nodded, took the clothes Alba handed her and turned around to enter the changing room.
David nodded with a look of sincere fear.
-Mr. Aguayo, I’ll give you an answer right away, just do what he says.
After Micaela changed clothes, Carlos took Micaela to the hotel first.
Alba and Micaela were in the inner room, while Carlos, Diego and Ernesto were in the outer room.
Diego hung up the phone, approached Carlos and said:
-Everything checks out, it was done by that model, Abril. The reason must be because Miss Noboa’s clothes were originally made for her. But David took the liberty of changing the plan and gave it to Miss Noboa. Abril is not aware now that her actions have been discovered.
Carlos nodded and said coldly:
-Treat her the same way.
Diego nodded and left.
Ernesto was a little surprised to hear that, he thought Abril was going to be in big trouble.
