Angelica later went to the Ferrari family, just to play with Lea, and when she saw Manuel arrive, although she unconsciously wanted to go up and call her brother, she restrained herself and sat quietly.
When Manuel came to talk to her, Angelica only casually responded.
At first Manuel thought she was just in a bad mood, but when he realized she was only doing it with him, he found it a little strange.
Then he deliberately observed her and proposed to take her skiing in a few days.
A little happy to hear about skiing, Angelica was about to say yes when she thought of something else and then shook her head, "No, I can't."
"Why?" Manuel's gaze took over her face and eyes, trying to figure out what was going on, "Didn't you like to go in previous years?"
Angelica bit her lip slightly and buried her head in his lap, "I really don't want to go this year."
"Why don't you want to go?" Manuel asked again, with no intention of letting her go.
Faced with such a Manuel, Angelica felt helpless and could only whisper, "I don't want to go, don't ask."
Manuel sighed, "What happened recently?"
He was a little worried, after all the ridiculous things he had heard earlier from Pacino's mouth, he had feared that someone else might talk nonsense even in front of Angelica.
It didn't matter to him, but not if Angelica heard it.
Fortunately, Angelica had always been innocent, but since winter break, she had stopped coming to his house, and when she did, she was less willing to engage with him.
It was obvious to him that the girl was deliberately distancing herself from him, so Manuel became a little suspicious that someone had said something in front of her.
"No, no." Angelica denied it and tried to get up to leave, but there was a grip on her wrist and she was pulled back by Manuel's whole body, probably because she was moving a little hastily, so Angelica fell into Manuel's arms, and her whole breath was filled with the scent that belonged to him.
It was familiar, but also unfamiliar.
Although she had been familiar with his smell in the past, when the two of them had been together without any taboos, now she felt strange and her heart was even racing a little.
She wanted to run away.
"Brother, let me go."
Angelica struggled with a red face.
Manuel did not notice the girl's strangeness and let her go later to sit on the sofa, "So tell us what happened, did someone say something to you?"
There was only one thing she was worried about now, and that was whether or not someone had said something in front of her, and whether or not Pacino, that blowhard, would go to her alone during the vacations?
With that in mind, she added, "Did Pacino come to you during the vacations?"
"What does that have to do with Pacino?" Angelica didn't quite understand and just stared at the wrist she had just had squeezed; her skin was white and delicate, so just that slight squeeze had brought out a small light pink mark on her wrist.
"It's okay." Manuel said lightly, "I'm just asking."
"Oh."
Angelica stopped talking again and Manuel, a little confused by her appearance, narrowed his eyes on the back of her head and decided to be direct: "You seem to be deliberately pulling away from me lately?"
Ang6 had not expected him to ask so directly and looked up abruptly, "No, how could I ever do that, don't overthink it brother!"
"No?" Looking at the young girl's expression, Manuel doubted himself a little, was he really thinking too much?
But yes, after the ridiculous things he had heard from Pacino, many things about Angelica tended to mess themselves up.
