Micaela is sitting in her office, explaining matters to her subordinates, and the two men nod and leave together.
Remembering that there was still one point left to explain, Micaela hurriedly got up and walked over to the glass door, and as soon as she opened it, she overheard their conversation:
-The new Mr. Nilson is really strong.
-Yes, the views were especially original and unique, and they hit the nail on the head!
-Echave City has every chance of reaching new heights of glory under his leadership!
Beautiful, strong and so good-natured….
The two voices faded away and Micaela blushed a little….
She’s been in office for less than a week and still hasn’t understood the situation of the seven municipalities of Ciudad Echave, so she’s not that good, she just calls Carlos every time she has a problem….
Carlos is truly omniscient and any problem is a piece of cake in his hands….
She remembered that yesterday afternoon she had to make a decision about a construction site, and she knew absolutely nothing about civil engineering and construction and had no idea what to do, so she told him she would give him an answer later, and after asking them out, she immediately called Carlos and accidentally dialed a video call….
She was about to hang up when the phone was already off the hook and she saw Carlos in his office with the baby, when he was in a meeting room and Mike was sleeping in the stroller, feeding Mike with a bottle while listening to her version of events with Bluetooth headphones on, giving him precise answers while still being able to direct the rest of the meeting….
Micaela was becoming more and more obsessed with him….
Carlos is probably the first president to push a stroller around the company….
He has developed the company in Ode Nation according to his own plans and is starting, from choosing the location of the company, to hiring staff, step by step….
Micaela comes to her senses and sits down at her desk.
She also has to work hard and learn from Carlos, she can’t let him be so far away and have to worry about her…
After finishing the matter at hand, her assistant sent the approval documents, she processed them and, in the afternoon, she went to Lin City with her assistant and her driver for a personal visit and a meeting….
It was late in the evening when she returned home and Yerma was waiting for her, having prepared a midnight snack for her, looking at her daughter and saying, effusively:
-Moya, hard work.
Micaela took a sip of soup and looked at her mother.
-Mom, now I realize what a heavy burden you had to carry all by yourself in the first place.
She does Mr. Nilson’s work but does not get the treatment Mr. Nilson deserves, and Mr. Nilson’s very limited authority to act is what keeps her restricted in every way….
Yerma shook her head with a fond smile.
-It’s good that now that I have you, I can enjoy my old age in peace.
Micaela hurried to put down the soup spoon.
-Mom, what are you talking about, you’re still young, so ‘enjoy your old age’!
Yerma smiled in delight and reached out her hand to stroke her head.
-Moya, mom is happy now that her daughter is on her side?
Micaela asked shyly, remembering an earlier discussion with Carlos:
-Mom, will you come back to Teladia with me later, when I can leave Salamonsa?
Mother, like other ordinary women in Salamonsa, has no physical restrictions and can leave as long as the policy fits?
Yerma’s eyes wandered a little, as if she imagined herself leaving that place where she had lived all her life, and then she shook her head.
-Mom may visit you from time to time, but it’s better if you stay here.
Then she looked at Micaela.
-Moya, did you ever think that all the newborns of Salamonsa, like Mike, would leave Salamonsa?
Micaela nodded; indeed, she had spoken to Carlos more than once.
-We have all asked ourselves the questions you are raising, and there are even people who have decided to leave Salamonsa with their wives and children, but in the end it is the ‘not wanting to leave’, not wanting to leave their children, not wanting to leave their husbands, not wanting to leave the land where they have been raised, at the end of the day we people are herd animals. We are a family, we can support each other and no one wants to leave anyone behind….
And, leaving aside that -unspeakable secret-, Salamonsa is really a land of joy, isn’t it?
Micaela was silent, yes, Salamonsa has very good quality of people, couples are very faithful to each other, there is never talk of “cheating”, there are very few people like Gerardo who do nothing wrong, the economic development is not comparable to other countries, but there are absolutely no poor people, the crime rate is very, very low. The crime rates are very, very low?
After dinner, her mother told her to go to bed early and not to stay up too late talking to Carlos. Micaela then remembered that the phone had been silent all day and that Carlos had not called….
The phone rang just as she was returning to her room, and it was Carlos calling, so Micaela’s mood, which had just been a little down, improved instantly:
-Micaela, there is good news and bad news here, which one do you want to hear first?
Said Micaela, somewhat surprised:
-Let’s hear the good news first.
-The good news is that Natalia is awake.
Micaela’s heart was suspended in the air and she asked cautiously:
-And the bad news?
-It’s the second personality waking up.
