Of course…
A dozen words, Carlos read them many times, would help him and the girl to leave, was it an active exit?
Carlos looks at the girl with a lot of distrust….
Micaela also remembered something and picked up the phone, adding the two conditions that Nilson had mentioned.
-He said that as long as you trusted me so much, there would be no disagreements between us for these ten days of separation, and as long as you could really help me take the position of City Lord.
Charles raised his eyebrows slightly, was that his complement?
No wonder the girl was so excited to show her love to herself a moment ago, because her first reaction did not suspect her, so this first point, has been reached?
Carlos kept silent, naturally he had absolute confidence in the girl and as for the second point….
Within a month, the new economy of Echave City was revitalized, as promised before Dona Echave, with a bold but prudent pace, which was put on guard against Nilson’s covert maneuvers to get in his way, but, so far, he has not felt any obstacle….
With the background and status of Nilson of Pesla City, it is not difficult for him to make a small move behind his back. Hasn’t he made a small move in secret yet, or, hasn’t he sensed it himself?
No, the last three days, including today, have been the best time for him to make his move, as it’s easy to get distracted and screw up when the girl is not with him, but neither Diego nor Carmelo have reported anything unusual and everything is going on in a tense and orderly manner, so presumably Nilson didn’t do that?
Nilson wants the girl to arrive in time for the seigniorage of the city….
This, however, was not enough to move him to keep the girl here.
He believes he has the power to leave Salamonsa without Nilson’s help and is not busy looking for a girl these days, he started contacting Dragon Cityfamily Obregon….
But he also believed that the girl definitely had that confidence in him as well, but the fact that she would stay anyway meant that it definitely wasn’t just because she felt sorry for Nilson….
There must be another reason for the girl to want to commit, and this reason definitely had something to do with herself as well….
He always knew that the girl kept hiding something from him, and he saw it the day before she was taken away when he pretended to be angry to see if there was something else he hadn’t told her….
The girl couldn’t lie, and the way she rushed to bury her face in his arms was out of fear that he would see through her….
However, he believed her, she wasn’t willing to say it, so there had to be a reason why she couldn’t say it, he just had to wait until she was willing to say it….
Let her stay here and wait six more days, he couldn’t convince himself that he desperately wanted to take her away, he wanted to see her every day….
-Gollum Gollum….
Carlos’ stomach suddenly rumbles…
Micaela looks surprised, in the light of her phone, at Carlos…
Hasn’t he had dinner yet?
It’s 10pm…
To find her, Carlos must have been sleepless, not sleeping well, not eating well, this time, in the light of the phone, vaguely under his eyes, he sees a shadow of tiredness….
Micaela’s heart lights up with remorse, she knows that Carlos wants to take her away, but she wants to convince Carlos to let her stay…
Ever since Carlos arrived in Salamonsa, there has been a slight restlessness in her heart.
He felt that getting out of Salamonsa would not be as easy as he thought, so he was eager to expand his army, and Nilson was a very strong backup who could turn enemies into friends and help Carlos get out of Salamonsa….
Naturally she remembered all the excesses she had done, but now that Carlos and she were new to Salamonsa, it was better to have an extra powerful helper than a rival to love and hate….
It was something she would have to talk to Carlos about, but as a matter of urgency, she couldn’t let Carlos starve to death. She stood up and Carlos took her by the hand.
Micaela leaned over and spoke in whispers as well, deliberately slowing down word by word:
-I’ll go get you something to eat.
Carlos put the phone down on the bed, wrapped his arms around her waist and sat her on his lap, whispering in her ear:
-No, first of all, how do you want to put me?
The heat made Micaela frown, it was so familiar, he had also told her that on her first day in Salamonsa.
Micaela bites her lip, blushes a little, looks away and answers.
-Anyway, don’t leave yet tonight?
The words instantly pleased Carlos and his thin lips came closer to kiss her again, when Micaela covered his lips and repeated:
-I’m going to get you something to eat, so be quiet and stay outside…..
Carlos kissed the palm of her hand before taking it away, speaking in such a tone, in such an atmosphere that it seemed more and more intimate between the two…
-Don’t eat anything, you eat…..
Micaela blushed even more, her heart was beating faster, she teased biting it, fumbling on the bed and pulling the switch, turning on the light, the sudden light made Micaela unconsciously squint, Carlos’ big hand had come closer and covered her eyes….
Carlos loosened his grip a little, letting his eyes adjust to the light, and Micaela, touched by this small gesture of consideration, kissed him on the cheek.
-Carlos, I’m so sorry you’re hungry, wait for me.
Then she got up and went to open the door, before she took a step, a warmth behind her, Carlos wrapped his jacket around her, Micaela stopped, Carlos had already turned around in front, he helped her put it on, he even zipped it up, and in a natural movement, he pushed her long hair aside….
Micaela watched his every meticulous movement, her heart softening, this man with a heart of gold….
Carlos bent his head and gave her a kiss on the lips, explaining in a low voice:
-Hurry back.
Micaela nodded with a slightly flushed face and picked up the glass of water she had just taken before leaving and closing the door behind her again.
Carlos sat back down on the bed, a little frustrated at having to ask his wife to go get him food and not being able to go out and make noise, he had never been such a loser in his life….
The next second, the door next door also opened and Nilson’s voice came in:
-Moya, what’s wrong?
Nilson wasn’t asleep either and got up as soon as he heard the commotion.
Micaela was standing in the living room, about to head for the door, when she saw Nilson come out and stopped to look at him, her eyes sparkling for a moment.
-I’m, I’m a little hungry again, I can’t sleep and I’m looking for something to eat.
Nilson was a little surprised, but nodded his head. The sky was the limit for the pregnant woman, maybe the baby in her belly was hungry too, and she said immediately:
-What would you like to eat? Fruit? Noodles? Or shall I prepare something else for you?
Micaela shakes her head.
-No, go to bed. Aren’t there any raw dumplings left from the afternoon? I’ll go make them.
There were still dumpling skins left over from the morning, and the two of them made more dumplings in the afternoon and used them just to make soup in the evening, with some leftovers…..
Nilson’s thin lips curved and his eyes filled with tenderness.
-Moya, don’t feel like bothering me, I was the one who brought you here, it’s only fair that I take care of you, I’ll go and prepare it for you, don’t go out, it’s cold outside.
A feeling of weakness arises in Micaela….
While outside, Micaela hurried to get a glass of hot water and gave it to Carlos to drink.
Carlos was sitting on the bed, listening to her conversation with a dark and handsome face….
-First have some water.
Micaela remained deliberately silent.
Carlos was thirsty, took the glass of water and bent his head to drink.
When he finished, Micaela immediately took the glass and went out to fill another glass of water, put it on the table and went out again.
Carlos is so eager to get her back….
Why does he have to be so obedient, shut up when he’s told to shut up, stay out when he’s told to stay out?
Carlos scratched his head a little, and ten minutes later came the sound of Nilson’s voice and the sound of a door closing outside.
-Moya, there, be careful it’s hot, I’ve made you a bowl of egg soup to go with it.
Carlos frowned, and his heart grew more and more bitter, huh, very thoughtful, feelings are such a move to make the girl soft?
-Thank you…
Micaela sits at the table, take two token sips of soup and eat a steamed dumpling.
Nilson sat right across from her and watched her, Moya was eating so beautifully….
Micaela squirmed a little and looked at him.
-Go to bed, don’t sit here.
Nilson raised an eyebrow, he wondered if Moya would share a few with him, there were a dozen steamed meatballs and he hurried off to bed….
Micaela saw that he didn’t move and did exactly what he wanted and brought the little tray closer.
-I’ll go to my room to eat then.
With that, Micaela carried the food back to the room in a dignified manner.
Nilson would not be coming to push open the door to her room and she knew it.
Nilson, still seated at the table, half rose, feeling that the Moya he had just seen had come even more alive in front of him….
He went to his room, lay down to sleep, turned out the light, heard the faint noise coming from next door and felt immensely satisfied that he could do something for her…
