-Miss Noboa.... -Diego was still worried and wanted her to go with him....
The music played and the models began to take the stage.
In such a hurry, Eric had to explain to Diego:
-Sir, don't misunderstand me. I have no malice.
Diego looked at Micaela and saw her nod before stepping back.
Eric was quick to say:
-Miss Noboa, since our final went suddenly to the hospital with appendicitis, can you fill in for her?
The other models were taken aback by his words, including Ivanna and Adriana.
-A final? We have never heard of this.
Adriana immediately tried to stop:
-Mr. Eric, don't be ridiculous. She is not professional.... There are reporters outside and it's going to be broadcast live, who can afford to screw up?
It was too risky!
Eric raised his hand to silence the crowd and looked at Micaela:
-Promise me, okay? I'll pay you...
Ivanna took a step forward and pulled Eric's arm, replying:
-Hey, gay! I won't allow it! My father won't allow it either! Our family has spent a lot of money on sponsorship, how can you ask someone who doesn't know anything to get on stage?
Her words were completely thoughtless!
On the one hand, Ivanna was really worried that the show would be spoiled, on the other hand, she didn't want Micaela to make it to the finals.
-Who is she, a poor orphan, to get on stage with me?
The crowd was surprised by her words and looked at her.
Diego immediately said nonchalantly:
-Mademoiselle, please watch your words!
Even Eric looked disgusted and took his hand away:
-Miss Aleman, I am responsible for this show today and everything is at my disposal.
"No one can question my aesthetics."
Micaela felt especially guilty towards Carlos, and a feeling of stubbornness arose in her heart as she listened to Adriana and Ivanna's desperate objections.
-Hello! -Mr. Eric.
Eric nodded immediately, looking hopeful.
-I... -She deliberately paused and looked at both Adriana and Ivanna, who were nervous:
-I have decided...
Adriana was so anxious, and spoke without regard to the consequences:
-If you dare to accept, I will immediately let the wretches from the orphanage go!
Micaela clenched her fists, looked at Eric and asked:
