In the afternoon, Carlos and Micaela took their friends to the next stop and Nilson himself went to see them off.
-Mr. Nilson, thank you for the gift of my son,” says Ernesto kindly.
said Ernesto kindly.
Nilson smiled.
-Don’t be polite if you consider me a friend.
Leonardo raised an eyebrow.
-Who thinks of you as a friend…?
There was a deliberate pause, seeing that everyone was staring in astonishment, before he hurried to say:
-It’s being a brother!
Everyone burst into laughter and Thomas looked at his own, Charles and Nilson, and said excitedly:
-Love rivals have become brothers, well, well!
All the men know that they would be great friends with Nilson if it weren’t for geographical restrictions…..
With her approval, Nilson also felt immensely satisfied in his heart, and seeing the intimate atmosphere between Moya and Carlos, the conflicting emotions in his heart were no longer as strong as before, and he sincerely hoped that they could get rid of all obstacles and stay together forever….
Yes, when Moya is happy, he is happy?
After saying goodbye and watching the luxurious caravan leave, Nilson pulled himself together and returned to his office.
As soon as he entered the company building, the receptionist came running up to him with a large kraft envelope in her hand and a red face.
-Mr. Nilson, at noon a Miss Rain delivered an item and asked me to pass it on to you.
Miss Rain?
Nilson immediately thought of Lluvia and reached out to take it, weighing it, frowning, his mind resonating with what Lluvia had said yesterday:
-Feel free to put it down and put the money down later.
The receptionist looked at Nilson admiringly, but Nilson paid her no heed and stepped into the elevator with the envelope bag.
Back in the penthouse office, he opened the envelope, and boy, did he open it!
The envelope contained a big, thick pile of cash.
A low pressure is starting to fill up Nilson….
In addition to the money, there were two pieces of paper, one of which, a discounted list of all the clothes, toys, diapers, etc. that he had given Estela, indicating that he had paid her back every penny!
There was another, which Nilson unfolded, and on the white A4 paper was the coldly printed message
-Mr. Nilson, please don’t do things like this in the future, paying you back all this money has cost me my family, please don’t make us mother and daughter drink, and please, I beg you, don’t bother us mother and daughter, I thank you!
Nilson read it three times and got so angry that he crumpled the message into a ball.
Was it his intention to make them drink the wind?
What he gave Estela, who asked him for money!
Damn her!
If he had wanted to marry, he would have had many women running to marry him!
That ungrateful woman who not only rejects him, but misrepresents his good intentions towards Estela!
The more Nilson thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more he snapped the ball of paper in his hand, hitting Leila, who had just made her way through the door.
-Eww!
Leila exclaims, of course it doesn’t hurt, it’s just a shock?
Ian, who then came in and tried to drag his sister in, was also surprised how the Lord, who was always calm and collected, could act like this….
It probably has something to do with that doctor…..
Nilson’s head hurt at the sight of Leila and he turned to stand in front of the window, watching the traffic thirty floors below, and his mind went back to the night before, when Rain grabbed his suit jacket and looked at him with her accusing little face….
There was a look in her eyes that he couldn’t read….
The brain is a mess that’s about to get tangled….
Leila looked at Nilson’s erect back and thought about what Ian had said to himself last night when he got home:
-Leila, the Lord has said he won’t marry you, let it go…..
A pain crossed Leila’s heart as Ian grabbed her arm to pull her back, which she shrugged off, and instead picked up the ball of paper, unfolded it and was filled with confusion as she saw the letters printed on it….
Ian tugged on her arm again, lowered his voice and said:
-Leila, go away!
Leila did not obey and shook off her hand, approaching Nilson.
-Nilson, what do you mean by that? Bothering a married woman into rejecting me?
Nilson frowned and looked at Leila with cold eyes, making her heart clench, the coldness in his eyes made her flinch and swallow unconsciously….
Nilson noticed the subtle movement again and his mind remembered the moment the night before when he pushed Rain against the hotel wall and she did the same, her small mouth twitched and she swallowed saliva, her eyes filled with surprise and a little uneasiness, he looked at her lips and couldn’t help himself….
Nilson surprised Leila by reaching out and grabbing her arm, and with a single force, so to speak, he pushed her against the glass wall of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at her red lips….
Ian sucked in a breath of cold air!
What does the Lord want?
He wanted to stop him, but subconsciously he hoped that the Lord was really in love with Leila, she had been secretly in love with him for so many years, and he would be happy if the two of them could see each other face to face….
Leila’s pupils flickered as she looked at Nilson, the charismatic man she had been secretly in love with since she was a teenager, so close her heart was beating so fast it would burst out of her mouth….
Was he going to kiss her?
Of course he was!
She begged me!
Leila’s small, dangling hands unconsciously clenched into fists, nervous and expectant, and she slowly closed her eyes…
