Ernesto curved his mouth and kissed her forehead. How bad is this girl, who won’t allow him to love someone else even if she herself has forgotten him….
He hugged her tighter and said in his mind, “Then don’t forget me. Wouldn’t your heart ache if you went away and left me alone?”
Even though she was in his embrace, even though she still hadn’t forgotten him, Ernesto was so sure that day would definitely come….
The next day, Micaela was taken by Carlos to the company to “keep his promise”.
The promise to see him…
Was he able to foresee that she would finish work and not go to Brillantella today?
Micaela sat to the side and listened to Diego and Carlos talk about the work plan.
Diego spoke softly:
-Mr. Leguizamo from the Barry Group, made an appointment last week to invite you to lunch to talk about the contract, and I have accepted it for you…..
-Cancell her.
An indisputable tone.
Diego opened his mouth, and decided not to speak for Mr. Leguizamo. Then he crossed out the appointment and continued talking about his agenda for the afternoon.
So many things to do?
What a hard job…
Micaela’s look at Carlos was filled with pain and pity.
Carlos looked at her, with a slight smile in his deep eyes.
Micaela said subconsciously:
-Carlos, I didn’t know you had so much to do every day, why are you canceling lunch? I can wait here until you come back, your business is more important?
-Eating with you is the most important thing.
Micaela blushed.
-It’s not necessary, I can be alone…
-I’m the one who can’t be alone.
Micaela’s face turned even redder.
Diego pushed up his glasses.
“Well, I figured, there’s nothing to compare with Miss Micaela. Our Mr. Aguayo has become a master of the art of flirting with girls, wait a minute…”
“I haven’t finished presenting the agenda yet, the two of them are already chatting with each other, can’t they see me?”
-Hey!
Diego made a sound to attract attention.
-That’s it, Diego, you can come out.
“What…”
“I haven’t finished reading the schedule yet…”
Diego was ejected from the office like this.
-Come here.
Carlos looked at Micaela.
Sitting next to him, Micaela shook her head hard, she didn’t want to get closer and even tried to escape. But as soon as she got up, she was enveloped in a wide embrace. Then he sat back in his boss chair hugging her, pulled her close and kissed her on the cheek.
Micaela shrugged her neck to dodge as she protested.
-Carlos, it’s not right for you to do that! This is the office, you have to concentrate on work….
-You’re looking at me, and I can’t work like that.
Micaela wanted to get up when she heard him.
-You brought me here, I’m coming back now!
Carlos hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear.
-Why don’t you try to be my secretary for a day? How about joining me for a meeting later?
Micaela was a little tempted, because she had never seen him in a meeting before….
-Don’t look at me all the time, just for a few seconds, okay?
Micaela was a little angry, but also amused, she caressed his cheek with her hands.
-What exactly did you bring me here for? Every time I influence your work when I’m here.
Carlos took one of her hands and brought it to his lips.
-But I want you by my side.
Micaela felt both happy and troubled. What to do when you have such a dependent boyfriend?
In the end, Micaela followed Carlos to the meeting.
And then Carlos regretted it.
All the managers of the company looked at her!
And Micaela smiled kindly at them all!
The atmosphere in the office instantly tensed.
Everyone didn’t react until they heard Diego’s cough, then they hurried to put their heads down.
The meeting was able to continue like this.
Micaela sat to Carlos’ right, remembering in her words, not to stare at him. But with a single glance, it was hard to look away….
His deep features, his perfect face, his low voice and the way he carried himself, all of these made Micaela’s heart beat faster….
Carlos looked at her with deep eyes, and handed her a notebook and a pen.
Micaela blushed, she hurried to receive them. She opened the notebook and picked up the pen, thinking to at least make a move. She really shouldn’t keep fixing her eyes on it…..
As the meeting progressed, she began to write up the minutes. She took brief notes of what each person said and made distinctions such as what was important and what was secondary based on what Carlos had said.
Everyone was surprised to see the president, who always looked like an iceberg, show such a warm look. He propped his chin with one hand, his eyes unabashedly rested on Micaela, shining with a warm light like the sun….
Micaela was concentrating on taking notes, and suddenly she heard no sound. Then she looked up and said to Carlos in a matter-of-fact way:
-Carlos, it’s your turn…
Seeing Carlos’ love-filled gaze, Micaela almost blushed again.
He came to his senses and responded quickly and so the meeting continued.
He asked her not to look at him, but it turned out that he was the one who was looking at her all the time.
Among the meeting attendees, there was one person who had a complicated expression on his face, that person was Javier.
He was successfully transferred to the Carlos Group headquarters.
He noticed all the eye contact between Micaela and Carlos. Suddenly he couldn’t help but wonder, if he really had any hope left when Micaela’s gaze on Carlos was so affectionate?
If her heart wasn’t with him, did it make sense to keep her person trapped around?
Yes, it would make sense, as long as it was her?
-Mr. Coronil, what do you think?
Javier woke up, what?
He sat up, a little overwhelmed that he hadn’t realized what they had just said.
Micaela’s curious look, Carlos’ cold look and the confused look of his colleagues were directed towards him, and suddenly a bad feeling came up in his heart?
Diego repeated Carlos’ words adding a few key points:
Javier’s heart skipped a beat immediately, but he calmly explained.
-Mr. Aguayo, as I have not participated in the collaboration proposal, I don’t know much about it.
Carlos nodded his head and said in an indifferent tone.
-However, I did manage to retrieve Jack’s contact with Mr. Coronil on his network path. You are not involved in this program, but he is related to the person in charge, how do you explain it?
Everyone looked at Javier with surprise.
After being transferred from Dragon Technology, the game designed by Mr. Coronil had not only led the trend of online games, but had also beaten Grupo Coronil’s game until there was no room to go back. So everyone was in awe of him, and had no objection to him becoming the project manager.
Under Carlos’ powerful gaze, a cold sweat broke out on Javier’s forehead….
Carlos launched a cold sneer.
-Mr. Coronil has a long perspective and a big appetite, you want to finish with my Group Carlos in one fell swoop, right?
