Carlos drove and Micaela sat in the passenger seat. Twenty minutes later, the car was entering a neighborhood.
Micaela took a look through the car window, it was an upper-middle class neighborhood with good vegetation. Didn’t Adriana say she was going to move to a mansion ten times bigger than her previous villa?
Here it didn’t look like there was any way to make it ten times bigger than it was before.
The car was parked and Carlos took Micaela’s hand and got out. At that hour there were no people in the neighborhood, just a few women and elderly people with children, so Micaela was not wearing sunglasses or a mask.
When she got into the elevator, Micaela had mixed feelings and her thoughts were a little clouded.
Carlos saw that she was distracted and asked.
-What’s wrong?
Micaela looked at Carlos and said with some reluctance:
-If that car accident was really just an accident, and my aunt? Marta and Adriana didn’t treat me that badly, then I should keep treating them as my only family, and right now, it’s about bringing my boyfriend to join them happily, instead of going to make a fuss….
Carlos squeezed the small hand in his palm.
To put it bluntly, she just longed to have a family….
-I want my family to know that I’m doing well, but it’s a big world out there and I don’t have any family….
Carlos let go of her hand and turned to take her in his arms.
-You’re greedy, little one.
-Huh? -Micaela looked at him.
Carlos’ deep eyes looked seriously at the person in his arms.
-I just need to have you.
Micaela blushed and moved closer to him to hug him, burying her face in his arms. She was left without a single family member, but she had never known loneliness since she had Carlos.
-I was wrong, you are my family, Alba too, as well as Tomas, Luna, and Grandpa, all of them are my family.
Then Carlos kissed her forehead with satisfaction.
-It’s a fact that they hurt you, you deserve justice for you and they deserve to pay for what they did.
Micaela nodded her head and inhaled his fresh and lovely scent.
Her mom and dad, they couldn’t leave this world without knowing.
The elevator doors opened and Micaela and Carlos lifted their legs to get out, but there was a man standing at the elevator door, and it was Sergio.
-Uncle… -Micaela called unconsciously.
Although she knew she didn’t have to call him that, but, after so many years calling him that, he was also the only person in the Elvira family who cared about her, and now, if they asked her to change her name, she didn’t know what to call him….
Sergio, dressed in a housecoat, was a little surprised to see Micaela and the instrumental Carlos, and was slow to react.
-Mr. Aguayo, Micaela, you have come, come and sit at home.
Saying this, Sergio turned around and guided them to his door, unlocking it and pushing it open, while Marta approached carrying a garbage bag, pronouncing the words.
-I asked you to come downstairs and take the garbage down, how did you do it?
She looked up and saw Carlos standing in front of the door with Micaela and stopped.
When Carlos and Micaela’s relationship became public, Marta discovered that the man Micaela was dating was Carlos, one of the three most important families in town!
No wonder, that time over the orphanage, this man could call the Anlandana land administration and take the land so easily, no wonder Micaela could be so arrogant, her modeling career was flourishing!
She was furious that her daughter Adriana already knew the identity of Micaela’s boyfriend, but she didn’t say a word about it!
But Marta also knew very well that even if Adriana knew, it wouldn’t change anything, it would only make her even angrier that fate had been so kind to that little vixen Micaela!
Martha looked at Micaela with hatred and jealousy.
“Why is Micaela so lucky that such a divine man loves her so much? And my daughter, who wants to be with that Marcos is so difficult.”
But Marta was still afraid of the man she could not afford to offend, so she had to swallow her mocking words and said in a sarcastic voice:
-What brings the famous model Micaela to my house?
Carlos’ icy stare at Marta made her shiver unconsciously.
Sergio pulled Marta aside and invited them in respectfully.
-Mr. Aguayo, Micaela, come sit inside.
Carlos took Micaela’s hand and followed him inside, taking a seat on the sofa.
He leaned back on the sofa, folded his long legs, his eyes were a little careless, a little lazy, exuding a dignified and inviolable aura. The modest living room, because of him, froze with a sense of luxury.
Sergio took a moment to look at the two of them sitting together, and only a few words came to mind, “They really look good together!”
“Micaela’s temperament, and Sister Aguayo’s dignified air, blended in harmony and beauty, and if Micaela’s parents saw it, they would be very happy for her, wouldn’t they?”
Without further thought, Sergio turned to pour water.
Micaela looked around the house. It was almost a hundred square meters, three rooms, not crowded, but not spacious either, the TV hanging on the wall was on, it was showing yesterday’s highlights of the participation in the Teladia High School sports day, as it had not yet been officially broadcast, the video was edited and each clip lasted just a few seconds, the image of Carlos holding her running was shown for a few seconds. There are also many images of Moises….
Sergio took out water and placed it on the coffee table.
Micaela moved her eyes back, knowing she had a lot to say on the way, but as she sat here, she didn’t know where to start.
She was going to ask Sergio if he was used to living in the new house, but then she thought that, if she hadn’t kicked them out, they wouldn’t have had to squeeze in here, but the house was hers in the first place, and she was just taking back what belonged to her….
Without meaning to, Carlos asked:
-Mr. Sergio, are you used to living here?
Carlos’ expression was polite and distant, but he did not turn people away and took the initiative to raise the conversation, flattering Sergio, who had just taken a seat on the other side of the table.
– “Already used to it, it’s not big, but it’s enough to live on…..
“We’re not used to it, it’s not as comfortable as the villa I lived in before, it’s all this girl’s fault!”
Martha sat triumphantly as the opening song of some TV series suddenly started playing on the TV.
-Hmph, we are only living here temporarily, my daughter Adriana is getting more and more popular now, soon we can earn a lot of money and get us a big house!
Micaela looked at the TV on the wall, it turned out to be the same drama Eric said Adriana had taken yesterday, and it turned out to be Adriana on the screen, and she looked beautiful in her outfit….
Said Carlos:
-I wonder if you have a life to live when you move to a bigger house.
