Carlos sniffed and squeezed her arms even tighter, wanting to rub her against his body.
As soon as he got off the plane he checked her location and discovered that she wasn’t at home, so he thought about going to look for her and saw in the distance Micaela surrounded by fans….
Micaela, filled with joy at the familiar freshness of her scent, remembered Bianca with a jolt, let go of Carlos and said, with some urgency.
-Oh no, Bianca is still there….
Carlos rubbed her head.
-Don’t worry, those fans won’t surround her when you’re gone.
Still, Micaela hurriedly turned around and took the phone out of her purse to call her.
The phone quickly went off the hook.
-Micaela, I’m fine, I just got in the car. As soon as you left those fans scattered too, they were all so excited, I guess you’ll have to make the headlines.
Micaela was relieved.
-Then drive carefully…
Carlos came closer and his thin lips softly touched her cheek….
Micaela was startled, the big bad guy was doing it again, and unconsciously she avoided his movements, but his arms were around her tightly, and she was firmly anchored in his arms….
-Well, Micaela, what do you think about Katarina? I just realized that there are paparazzi over there too, and I think Adriana has someone there beforehand, and tomorrow her secret meeting with Antonio will be in the news again! Now I know for sure they are having an affair, and Adriana has a good plan to expose them both and force Katarina to resign.
Micaela was a little distracted by Bianca’s words and made an effort to concentrate, questioning.
-It’s just a guess of ours, maybe there is a hidden agenda, didn’t Adriana just threaten Antonio with ‘secrets’, does she have something on Antonio, or on Marcos, to make him so suspicious…? …?
Bianca thinks of Adriana’s words “to tell Katarina that I’m having an affair with you”, and is still convinced that Antonio is cheating on her! Angry and heartbroken for Katarina, she said.
-Micaela, we have to help Katarina, she is already in a bad mood because of what happened to her uncle and she trusts Antonio too much, I’m afraid she won’t be able to stand it if something really happens…..
Micaela’s breath hitched a little as the man’s movements became hotter and hotter, unable to free herself and worried that Bianca would find out what was going on, she hurried to say that she would think about it in the long run and that you should go home first, then she hurriedly hung up the phone.
Carlos was making a fool of himself, but his ears were still attentive to what they were saying, the car was silent, and with Micaela in his arms, he could hear what was being said on the phone, he had not been attentive to Adriana and Antonio giving headlines, but Micaela would read it in front of him, and it would have been hard for him not to know, and after sorting it back and forth, he had a good guess….
Micaela drops her phone and tries to protest with the bad man, just as she looks up at him she is gagged on the lips, whimpering, the back of her neck is grabbed by him, deepening the kiss….
He missed her so much he couldn’t resist touching her when she was in his arms. The moan made his blood boil and he kissed Micaela until she was breathless before releasing her and distracting her before she could come to.
-Trying to help Katarina?
Looking into her teary eyes and rosy lips, Carlos was speechless.
Micaela nodded unconsciously, not really listening, but she wanted to help Katarina…..
Carlos looked down and grabbed her right hand, checking where he had just held her. He carefully controlled the force, there was only a slight red mark, which should disappear by tomorrow, and then he felt relieved, his deep eyes looked at her.
-Micaela, there are things beyond our control.
Micaela was so distracted that she didn’t care what she had just done and asked anxiously.
-Do you think Antonio betrayed Katarina?
Carlos frowned slightly, the few times Antonio and Adriana had been on a tightrope, it must have been deliberate on Adriana’s part, she could be so bold as to upset Antonio, and Antonio knew it was a trap, but still he fell into it again and again, fearing that Adriana did know and repeatedly threatened….
How did he know?
He had used Tomas’ intelligence network to search for the truth, how had she found out?
Could it be that Marcos also knew that she had told Adriana when he was dating her?
When the car reached its destination and came to a slow stop, Carlos bent down to smooth Micaela’s slightly disheveled clothes and said.
-It doesn’t matter if we believe each other or not, what matters is that Katarina believes him and that’s enough.
Micaela was relieved that this was so and that he also thought there was innocence between Antonio and Adriana.
-I was about to believe he was having an affair with Adriana, but when I heard her say ‘secret’ I thought, could they have forced Antonio to do the same?
He frowned slightly.
-What handle was it that made Antonio commit to seeing her over and over again? Was Adriana’s intention really, as Katarina told them, just to go back to Marcos?
Carlos rubbed his head, there was really nothing he could do about it, Antonio was trying to hide it somehow and he couldn’t push himself to reveal the truth.
After a long moment of deliberation, he spoke.
-It’s a good thing the media didn’t cover this too much today, and as for what’s going on between Antonio and Katarina, they should let the couple work it out for themselves.
The first few times, Antonio was able to get in front of her, and this time too.
Micaela, a bit surprised to be pulled out of the car, unconsciously asked after him.
-How do you know the media won’t cover today’s events too much?
Carlos took her by the hand in the elevator and said weakly.
-Because you were there.
Micaela was a little skeptical.
-Will being hounded by fans in the press squash Antonio and Adriana?
The elevator doors opened and Carlos dragged her out, his thin lips curving into a slight smile.
-Micaela don’t underestimate what you can do.
Micaela blushed and underestimated with embarrassment.
-There’s nothing I can do about it.
Carlos opened the door, turned on the light and turned to embrace Micaela, his deep voice echoing in her ears.
-Micaela is so capable of making me stay outside for a minute and just want to come back to see you and hug you…..
Micaela blushed a little more, the familiar fresh scent of his body between her breaths, and the image of him rescuing himself from a crowd of fans a moment ago came back to her mind, making her heart beat faster again….
-Carlos, why did you come back early, didn’t you say it would be tomorrow?
I made this trip for five days, an extraordinarily long five days, and now I have finally been able to embrace it for real….
Carlos laughed a little at Micaela’s long reflections, encircling her waist with one hand and pinching her cheek with the other.
-What business trip didn’t he come back early? Hmm?
He’s so heart bound, he’s looking forward to the trip.
Micaela blushed slightly, besides, every time he came back early, and that time he even ran back because he said he missed him….
-So, have you had dinner? Do you want me to make you something?
Carlos tightened his arms and his thin lips sought her ear to whisper to her.
-No, let me hold you.
Micaela’s heart became sweeter and sweeter, his low voice sounded like a mellow cello, pregnant her ears, then she remembered what he did to her in the car a moment ago, she was a little speechless, this bad man was soft and hard, every time he got angry, she ended up not being able to do anything about it, she went five days without seeing him, now she didn’t want to get angry, she just wanted to quietly enjoy the beauty of his embrace….
Carlos held the person he had in his arms tighter, about Natalia, after tonight…
