The manager and the store manager were very worried, wondering if they had indirectly offended Mr. Aguayo by refusing the girl's request to work here, after all, even Mr. Ordonez was afraid of this Mr. Aguayo.
Adriana, for her part, was fuming with jealousy that the jewelry set, which she had had her eye on, had been given to Micaela....
Marcos' fists clenched tightly, he was very embarrassed today, did he and Micaela know each other? What was their relationship?
Carlos felt in a good mood seeing Micaela's ears even reddening... that cute and naive look was just for him!
He grabbed Micaela's wrist and took off in long strides.
Diego nodded to Mr. Ordonez and followed him to the exit, and Mr. Ordonez accompanied him to the door with his back hunched until he was out of sight....
Carlos dragged Micaela down the bustling shopping street as night began to fall.
It was a pedestrian street and parking was not allowed.
Micaela tried several times, but couldn't pull her hand away from Carlos. Passersby gave them all kinds of looks and Micaela was so embarrassed that she just wanted to hide.
-My hand hurts! -cried Micaela timidly.
In fact, she had just the right amount of strength and it didn't hurt, she just wanted Carlos to let go of her hand.
True to his style, Carlos stopped and let go of her wrist, and before Micaela could withdraw her hand, Carlos squeezed her small hand tighter.
Really small and comfortable to hold in her hand.
Micaela couldn't help but blush again, letting herself be passively pulled by him as she continued to walk forward, watching his large hand envelop hers, and inexplicably feeling a warm current run through her heart....
As they turned off the pedestrian street, the silver-gray Cayenne waited at the curb.
Carlos opened the driver's door and the driver was stunned.
-Mr. Aguayo...
-Get out!
The driver hurriedly unbuckled his seat belt.
Carlos unlocked Micaela on the passenger side and gestured with his eyes for her to get in.
Micaela turned around and leaned her back against the car, not wanting to get in.
-Carlos, where are you taking me? I don't want to go!
Her eyes had panic written in them.
"Micaela, come to your senses, she's such a dignified person, she's not someone you can have-".
Carlos lowered his head, one hand on the open car door and the other still holding her hand tightly.
- "If you don't get in the car, I'll kiss you right here and now.
Micaela didn't even dare to breathe, looking at his serious expression, the two faces were close together, out of the corner of her eye she saw that people were already stopping to watch, biting her lip, she turned around and got into the car.
Carlos' mouth curved into a small curve as he closed the door and made his way to the driver's seat.
The chauffeur, who was standing in the car door, busied himself by stepping back.
Carlos climbed in and closed the car door.
Diego, who was following him, looked at the car as it drove away and at the chauffeur, who was being thrown out of the car, "So we're candlestick holders?".
A few hundred yards away, Carlos suddenly stopped again to the side and lunged directly at Micaela....
Micaela turned her face to the side and closed her eyes, her small hands resting on her chest, ready to push him hard.
The expected kiss didn't happen and Micaela slowly opened her eyes to see Carlos close to her, his eyes so full of laughter that they were about to spill....
A click sounded.
Was he just helping her with the seat belt?
-Do you want me to kiss you? Huh?
Micaela pushed him away forcefully.
-No!
Carlos had a smile on his lips.
It was so cute when he was angry that it tickled the corners of his lips.
After buckling his seatbelt securely, the car started slowly.
Micaela picked up the gift jewelry box at her feet and looked away from Carlos with a glare.
-I don't want this, I'm giving it back to you!
Carlos looked at her.
-You liked it a lot when you saw it.
Micaela was a little surprised and couldn't help but look at Carlos, who was staring straight ahead.
-Did you see it?
-Yes.
