My Dear Mr. Nice

-It was when you looked at the designs for the wedding decorations. Everything was inspired by Amelia and I immediately planned in my head the drama that was going to happen today. Eric was also delighted to say:

-Katarina is a very thoughtful person and as soon as she told us about it, I was sure it was going to attract a lot of attention.

Katarina continued triumphantly:

-Yes, it went much better than we expected! When my brother, Eric and I made the decision, we contacted Mr. Aguayo directly, while you were in Nation Mangzarent.

Carlos said yes after only a moment's thought, after all, Micaela really wanted to get into modeling, and a good start was essential.

"Mangzarent Nation, it was my birthday.... That night Carlos got a phone call, was it from Katarina?"

-Because she wanted to ask your boyfriend to help James make a dress just like Amelia's, and although he agreed he also explained that I shouldn't tell you about our plans. "Carlos knew Micaela so well that if I had told him my plans, there might not have been such a successful show and signing today."

Micaela looked at Carlos and muttered:

-So I'm the last to know?

Eric laughed:

-Hahahaha, good thing you've practiced your proverbial ability to react!

Micaela was still a little sad, thinking that it was a cruel end for Amelia

Towards the end of lunch, Micaela's phone rang and she was about to go out to answer it when Carlos grabbed her hand.

-Don't get out of my sight, come over to the couch and answer the phone.

Carlos was still haunted by the memory of what had happened to Micaela the last time he had come for dinner.

Micaela remembered it too and nodded her head, then gestured to show Carlos the screen; it was Alba.

Micaela then walked over to the sofa and sat down, picking up the phone, to speak in a deliberately low voice so as not to disturb the others.

Carlos looked at Katarina. He had asked Diego to list all the occasions he had been on, and he searched carefully, but there was not a shred of evidence that he had met Katarina, Micaela together at the same time on any previous occasion.

This was as difficult as it had been before.

-Does your company have a contract with that woman? -Carlos asked Hector.

Hector thought for a moment before realizing that the woman Carlos was referring to was Amelia.

-No, we were going to sign it after the final GarzaBlanca program as well, sorry, I didn't know at the time that she was the woman in that case.

Carlos nodded:

-Don't sign it.

-Are you going to stop helping Grupo Atenas?

-More than that.

Hector frowned, his instinct told him that Carlos was not making this decision just because of this incident

Micaela smiled as she ended the call and returned to the table, asking Eric:

-Mr. Eric, is it okay if I bring an assistant with me when I come to work at Brillantella?

Eric nodded and asked curiously:

-Of course it is, but you just signed up and you already have someone to be your assistant? Micaela smiled, nodded and looked at Carlos, saying:

-It's Alba, she will be back soon and will arrive in Teladia in the afternoon. She is my best friend.

Carlos' brow furrowed slightly as he remembered what Alba had texted him.

After dinner, Eric and Micaela finalized tomorrow's training time and said goodbye at the front door.

Suddenly, Katarina pulled Micaela closer to her car and pulled out a beautifully wrapped gift box from the passenger side and handed it to Micaela.

-Micaela, here's a little present for you, congratulations on signing Brillantella! -said Katarina mischievously and raised an eyebrow, pointing to Carlos who was not far away. Micaela felt a little surprised, but she couldn't refuse, so she took it, smiling and thanking him.

While Katarina gave her gift to Micaela, Carlos turned to Hector and Eric and told them in a pertinent tone:

-I don't want to see my wife harmed in the least if she works at Brillantella in the future.

Hector assured Hector:

-Mr. Aguayo, don't worry, we will fulfill the contract to the letter.

Carlos nodded, and Micaela approached with the gift box in her arms, without having heard their conversation.

Micaela sat in the passenger seat and tried to open the gift, but thought of Katarina's last special look, so she didn't want to open the box here.

"Didn't Katarina want Carlos to know what was in the box?"

She decided she would open the gift when she was alone.

Carlos gave her a sidelong glance and asked:

-What is it?

Micaela replied playfully:

-It's a gift from Katarina, I'm going to admire it alone and I won't let you see it.

Carlos smiled, loving the lovely Micaela very much.

"She liked the gifts so much?"

Micaela was very happy inside at the thought that Alba would soon be back to keep her company.

She looked at Carlos and asked:

-Carlos, is it possible to give Alba the room next to ours?

Micaela was talking about the apartment in Barrio Fanslan.

Immediately after realizing what he had said, Micaela blushed.

"The room next to ours? In my conscience, the room I sleep in is shared by both of us?'

Ever since they returned from Mangzarent Nation, they stayed at Nyisrenda, except for the night when Carlos had a fever, Micaela always slept in her own room and she had the feeling that Carlos had never again sneaked into her room while she slept

At the thought of this Micaela felt a slight sense of loss

-Shouldn't she go back home and stay there? -Carlos asked.

Micaela said:

-She said she would do her duty to do her best to eat with me, drink with me and dor....

Micaela violently covered her mouth with her hand

Carlos looked at Micaela as he drove and said:

-Is this honor of sleeping with you going to be reserved for me?

Micaela said nothing because she did not know what to say.

Carlos continued asking:

-Don't you prefer to spend time with two people?

Micaela hurried to explain:

-Certainly she won't stay with us all the time, only occasionally, so it's good to have a room for her just in case.

Carlos was a bit resistant, not only because he didn't want other women to enter the house reserved for Micaela, but for other reasons that he couldn't explain at the moment.

Now that Micaela had asked him, Carlos would not let her down.

-It's up to you.

Micaela smiled happily and Carlos saw her smile and felt the uncomfortable feeling in his heart slowly fade away.

-Shall I walk you to your office now?

-I hear your French is very good, so I need you to translate something for me.

Micaela asked, puzzled:

-How do you know?

"I don't think I've ever spoken French in front of him!"

-Diego told me.

Micaela jumped to her feet and agreed immediately.

-How did you and Katarina get to know each other so well? -Carlos asked.

As far as he could remember, Micaela's first encounter with Katarina had been very unpleasant.

Carlos was a bit surprised when Mangzarent Nation received a call from Katarina saying she wanted Micaela to sign with Brillantella. He asked Katarina why she wanted to help Micaela in this way, was it just to help Hector get the Brillantella name out there?

Katarina answered at that moment that she really wanted to be friends with Micaela.

Carlos had met a lot of people and although he had only briefly touched Katarina a few times, he was sure that Katarina had no ill will towards Micaela, so he agreed to Katarina's plan. Now that the plan was working well, he had to be more careful to protect the girl in front of him.

Micaela was a bit confused by the question and, after a moment of recollection, she said slowly:

-I don't know...

Carlos looked at Micaela and said nothing.

"She's attractive, but she doesn't know herself..."

Villa of the Davalos family.

Bianca was curled up on the couch in her room, watching Brillantella's video of the day on her iPad.

"Micaela, the woman's name is Micaela

The article in Excellent Taste to show her love to Carlos was deleted at Carlos' expense!

Even her column in this issue was deleted and the story was banned from the Internet. She wanted everyone to know, but instead of getting the results she deserved, she received gossip from her relatives. Although many days had passed since the incident and her mother and father had finally stopped talking about it in front of her, she still felt especially uncomfortable, and her parents' reaction was particularly stifling.

She had adored Carlos for so many years, how could she fall in love with someone else just because he said so? And it wasn't fair to

Tomas.....

There was a knock at the door and Bianca answered.

Outside the door stood a maid with a file in her hand, saying respectfully:

-Miss, this is the letter that just arrived, the delivery man said it was the information you wanted.

Bianca nodded, took the information, closed the door and sat back down on the sofa.

Pulling the stack of papers out of the folder, Bianca looked at it carefully and put it down in two minutes
