Chapter 29 : Standing On My Own Merits!
Chapter 29 : Standing on my own merits!
So Carlos hadn''t left recently, had he?
Mica looked at the couch, had he spent the night there again?
Mica bit her lip and opened the package. Today''s was some porridge with a few snacks, very much
to Mica''s taste.
After eating and picking up, she found a bag and blushed as she folded the suit jacket from the couch,
then the pants from the bathing suit and shirts, they were clothes worth a lot of money and would have
to be sent to theundry.
Mica bit her lip and washed the remaining socks, then washed her own clothes and hung them on
the balcony....
She prepared the necessary things for work, took the clothes for dry cleaning, thinking there was a dry
cleaner in the neighborhood, closed the door and went out.
After dropping off the clothes at the dry cleaners, Mica took the bus to work.
Once at the Nubcancion building, the design department was on the 8th floor.
As she entered the empty elevator, the door was about to close, and a man ran up to her, Mica
hurried to stop the door from closing.
The man stepped inside and thanked her.
He smiled at Mica in his gray suit and gold-rimmed sses, looking svelte.
With a polite nod, Mica looked away.
She was then followed by an elegantly dressed woman, and they stood to the left and right of the
elevator.
The man, however, looked at Mica thoughtfully for a long moment, until the other woman coughed
dryly a couple of times and then looked away.
Mica was immune to men''s stares, and when she reached her floor, she walked out without noticing
the man and woman behind her....
Presumably Kiki had exined it to her beforehand and the receptionist went straight through the
initiation process.
It was a suite-like office with a sign on the door that said Design Department 2.
When she walked in, it was arge room with green nts all around and apartmentalized office
area in the center, to which no people had yet arrived. The two women who had arrived gave Mica a
curious nce and then looked down to do their business.
Further inside, the sign on the door read, "Designer''s Office."
The man at the front desk opened the door right away and told Mica to step into the office and wait.
Mica walked in and examined the area.
Was this where Ms. Kiki used to create?
The furniture was simple, not too much stuff and well organized.
It didn''t take long for Kiki to arrive, still wearing the same simple professional outfit from yesterday, with
discreet colors, no makeup and very approachable.
She saw Mica and greeted her cordially.
-Mica, you''re here. Have youpleted the onboarding process?
-Yes.
-Good,e with me.
Kiki herself led her outside to the office area, where there were already people and someone could be
seen in all the cubicles except the empty one.
They came to the only cubicle that was empty.
Kiki pped her hands and everyone looked up.
-We have a new member on our team today, Mica!
Mica smiled kindly and looked at her new partner who stood up.
Two teammates and three teammates.
One of the men whistled and looked excitedly at another teammate, as if to say, "Oh, how beautiful!"
-Hello, everyone, my name is Mica!
Mica greeted briefly and the colleagues immediately rushed to say their names.
Kiki adopted the big sister posture, making a face of circumstance and saying:

-Look at your faces, haven''t you ever seen a pretty girl or what! Don''t scare her!
Then sheughed.
-We''re all colleagues from now on, so let''s be nice.
The office filled withughter.
Mica''s mood was also much more rxed.
Kiki exined a few simple things and then went into the inner office.
Mica sat down on the stool and the colleague next to her immediately sat down and slid over to her.
-Mica, hello, my name is Ana!
The girl had very elegant and yful short hair, looking super nice.
-Hello!
Mica answered with a smile.
-We have a chat group for work. I''ll add you. That''s where the boss sends the missions. Besides that,
we also have an internal chat group....
Mica carefully followed her instructions and it wasn''t long before she received a message in the
group where Kiki said something about the day''s work and everyone went about their business....
Before they knew it, it was noon and time to leave work.
A bespectacled colleague approached Mica''s table first and said excitedly:
-Mica, we have a canteen in thepany, on the 4th floor, shall we have lunch together?
Seeing Mica''s dilemma, Ana, who was next to her, approached her.
-Mica has already made an appointment!
-Yes, I have already met Ana....
Mica hurried to take it calmly, giving Ana a grateful look.
Thepanion had to leave with a sigh.
One by one, the people who were in the office left, and Kiki greeted those who were still in the office
and went out.
-Thank you, Ana!
-Nothing, I forgot to tell you, your phone is on vibrate all the time!
Mica then remembered that she had put her phone on silent on the way in....
When she took it out of the drawer, there were six missed calls, all from Alba.
She quickly called her back.
-Aunt, you finally answered the phone!
-Alba...
-I brought you food. What floor are you on?
The action figure was her!
Ana gathered her things, waved to Mica and went out.
Alba soon arrived with two lunch boxes.
Mica picked up the table and Alba took out her things as she looked around for a moment.
-It''s not a bad atmosphere! I know thedy from the Nunez family a little, do you want me to call her
and ask her to take care of you?
-No, no!
Mica tly refused.
-I knew you would be like that, not taking advantage of such a good resource! If you had gone straight
to work for my brother''spany, it would have been a simple matter of me saying so!
Mica distributed the disposable cutlery and pulled up a chair for her friend to sit on.
-I don''t like that. I like to keep my feet on the ground and stand on my own merits.
Alba looked at Mica''s delicate, serene profile.
That''s how it was when she was in college, Mica didn''t ask for a penny from the Elvira family, she
earned it all herself.
Sometimes when he saw that she was in a really difficult situation he wanted to help her, but she
wouldn''t ept it, and when she really had no other choice, he would borrow it and then pay her back
as expected.
Mica, who was weak on the outside but strong on the inside, gave Alba grief.
Mica looked at the dishes, all of which she loved.
Mica looked at Alba, the pampereddy should have packed food from some big hotel.
Since she wasn''t answering the phone, she came with the lunch boxes herself.
After the meal, Mica took out the trash and when she returned, she saw Alba waiting for her with her
legs crossed.
-Dear Mica, is there something you''re not telling me?
