Chapter 156 : Carlos By Her Side Was Enough For Her.
Chapter 156 : Carlos by her side was enough for her.
-Well, Diego, you''ve been working all day. Go get some rest now," Carlos told him with an undeniable
tone.
Carlos knew that his assistant started to get busy at work with himself as soon as he arrived in this
country. After the business meeting with the partner, he rested for a while, but Diego still went on with
the work of organizing the birthday party in the living room.
Sensing Carlos'' serious tone, Diego knew that his boss was worried about his body, so he nodded his
head, but before leaving, he reminded his master:
-Please let them follow you and Miss Noboa all the time.
The ones Diego mentioned were referring to those 4 bodyguards.
Now they were in an unknown country, the Mangzarent Nation, instead of Tdia, where the Aguayo
Group''s zone of influence was, so they had to be more cautious.
Seeing that Carlos nodded slightly to him, Diego turned and left the room.
-Alba,e and sit here.
Mica stepped forward and took Alba''s arm towards the rectangr table. She had seen the seat
where Carlos was sitting, so Alba consciously sat down in the chair in front of Carlos'' seat, and then
pulled her friend''s arm with the intention of having her sit next to him. However, Carlos, who was sitting
across from her, said softly to Mica:
-Honey, sit next to me.
Hearing the man''s words, Mica obediently took the seat next to him.
"By God, this Mica has already forgotten about her best friend after having a boyfriend."
The two girls had not seen each other for a long time, naturally they were very happy meeting in
another country and had a lot to chat about.
While the two were talking happily, Carlos was sitting quietly next to Mica, cutting the steak nicely
into small pieces for her. In turn, Mica ate a piece, discovered that it was very delicious and took a
piece to the man with her fork eximing:
-Carlos, this steak is super tasty, try it?
Before finishing her words, Mica stopped the fork abruptly in the air because she realized that her
movement was too intimate and affectionate and that her best friend was sitting in front of her.
Carlos sketched a slight smile, approached the fork hanging in the air, ate that piece of steak and then
answered in his low voice to the woman:
-Yes, it is very delicious.
Alba was very touched when she saw that the two were so affectionate.
"Fortunately, I encouraged Mica to ept him to that man at that moment. Now Mica is much
more cheerful than before being with this Carlos."
To alleviate her friend''s embarrassment, Alba opened her mouth quite naturally:
-Of course he is very exquisite! Mica, this is the Kobe prime steak from Japan.
Upon hearing Alba''s exnation, Mica''s attention was immediately diverted.
After a pause, Alba continued:
-Look, this dish is foie gras and it muste from Clsace de Kansa. This is ck truffle and that dish is
ck caviar? All the dishes on this table are very expensive!
After hearing her words, Mica felt even more excited. This man had taken her specially to this
country and had invited her best friend secretly, just to surprise her and celebrate her birthday.
Sensing that his wife was about to cry again, Carlos hurried to say:
-Tontita, don''t cry anymore. I''m very sorry to see you cry. Eat something, okay?
Alba smiled softly as she saw that the two were publicly showing their affections.
After finishing the main courses, Alba, who had a sweet tooth, immediately suggested cutting the cake.
"This delicate cake must taste really good!"
Indeed, the tart was very soft and rich, which melted immediately upon entering the mouth and left a
constant aroma. The two girls loved it so much that they ate several pieces without having any worries
about getting fat. Mica looked sideways at Carlos and saw that he didn''t even touch the portion she
had cut for him, so she rmended:
-Carlos, try it, it really is very delicious!
The man exined, refusing:
-I don''t like sweets very much.
-Try a little bit, it''s not very sweet," insisted Mica.
The man, who seemed to be hesitating, approached her and said:
-Yes? Then I''ll take a bite...
Having said that, he leaned over, kissed Mica on the lips, where there was still some cream
remaining, and whispered in her ear:
-Yes, it tastes great and I''m already addicted.
Off to the side, Alba already took out her cell phone and took some affectionate pictures of them - the
two of them really were very photogenic!
Mica hurriedly pushed the man away and looked stunned at Alba, her face very flushed.
-Stop it, please, stop showing your affections in public. The band and I are still present!
Just when Mica wanted to say something, Carlos'' phone suddenly rang. Carlos took out his cell
phone and saw that it was an unknown number. However, when he wanted to hang up straight away,
he suddenly remembered that he had dialed this number. This number belonged to Katarina Carballo!
Carlos stood up immediately and excused himself:
-Excuse me, I''m going to take a call.
Alba, who had been waiting for the man to leave and let Mica be alone with her, answered:
-Please take your necessary time, Mr. Aguayo.
Then Carlos went to the window not far away to answer the call.
Mica looked at the band''s piano and said to Alba:
-Alba, do you think I can y the piano?
Alba was a little surprised and asked:
-Really, why haven''t I heard you mention it? When did you learn to y it?
-In that memory I lost, the piano teacher said that I had learned to y the piano since I was little and
gave it up after my parents'' ident.
Thinking that her parents were already gone and that only she remained in this world, Mica could
not help but sink into a deep sadness....
Looking at her friend''s mncholic expression, Alba consoled her with a tender tone:
-If your parents knew that there is a man who loves and cares for you, they would rejoice and rest in
peace. Mica, that Carlos, he really treats you very well, I think the best thing I''ve done so far is to
have encouraged you to be with him!
Mica put on a slightly flushed face and said softly:
-Alba, thank you so much for everything you have done for me. Otherwise, I would not have been able
to take the first step in this rtionship.
Hearing Mica''s words, Alba asked her with some surprise:
-Don''t tell me! From what I know about you, you have always been an inactive and introverted person
in love. Are you sure you have taken a step? Isn''t it that Mr. Aguayo who has been taking the initiative
in this rtionship with you?
Mica became even more embarrassed and refuted:
-Of course I have! I added his WhatsApp ount first!
Alba burst outughing at her response.
Mica felt a little more embarrassed and said seriously:
-As you said, it''s true that he is the one who has always been taking the initiative and taking care of
me, but I want you to know that from now on, I will strive to be mature and to reach the same
height as him!
Alba nced sideways at Carlos, who was standing not far away, and guessed that he must have
heard her friend''s words because he was smiling so happily.
Indeed, Carlos heard everything Mica had said and said to himself mentally:
"Silly girl, as long as you take one step forward towards me, I''ll walk running for you!"
The next moment, very determinedly, Mica stood up and approached the band step by step.
Alba was astonished to see her walk steadily to where the piano was and talk about something with the
pianist. Then thetter got up from the chair and Mica took the seat.
"Does she want to y the piano?"
Both Alba and Carlos fixed their eyes on Mica, who held up her fingers and slowly closed her eyes.
At this point, a man from the band yed the saxophone, and then Mica, to the sound of it, began
her rendition on the piano.
The piece she was ying was Beethoven''s "For Eliza". Deeply immersed in the soft notes of the
melody, Mica swayed elegantly ording to the rhythm as she yed the piano.
A soft white spotlight fell on Mica on stage, highlighting her beautiful and elegant profile, as if she
were a fairy straight out of children''s fairy tales.
Alba was so taken aback by her friend''s musical performance that she covered her mouth and
eximed softly:
-Mica is very talented on the piano!
Carlos also looked unblinkingly at Mica thinking that his baby could always surprise him.
When Mica was about to finish, Carlos suddenly approached her and sat down next to her.
After ying thest note, Mica felt her emotions slowly calming down. Just as she was about to
remove her hands, she heard the dynamic sound of the piano and instantly recognized it as
Pachelbel''s "The Canon". Mica closed her eyes again, took a deep breath and began to y the
piece together with the man.....
-My God, they both y the same piece on the same piano! -Alba waspletely stunned.
The two sat together, with their own hands, jumping quickly between the ck and white keys, ying
a fast, light and naughty melody. The two were cooperating perfectly as if they had practiced this piece
numerous times.
Those in the band looked dazedly at this couple, who werepletely immersed in their own world of
music, and felt that the band was surplus to requirements in this room.
At the end of the piece, Mica opened her eyes softly, turned her head towards the man and asked
him in surprise:
-Carlos, is there anything you are incapable of doing?!
Thetter drew a slight smile and approached her ear whispering sweetly:
-Yes, I am incapable of disappointing you.
Hearing what the man said, her pulse elerated uncontrobly as if it could jump out of her throat at
any moment. Suddenly, Mica felt that it would be enough to have this man by her side and she
would have nothing more to ask for in the rest of her life.
Carlos took her by the hand and approached Alba.
-Miss Girabert, are you free tomorrow?
-Of course I am, tomorrow I wille to apany Mica for the whole day," Alba answered quickly.
-Well. Then I''ll let someone take you back to school first and pick you up here tomorrow, OK?
Alba nodded slightly and then turned to her friend:
-Mica, it''s already veryte and I''m going back to school first. By the way...
Alba stopped suddenly as if she had remembered something. A sh of worry quickly shed through
her eyes and disappeared instantly. After calming down, she continued:
-By the way, the night scenery of this city is very beautiful and you can let Mr. Aguayo apany you
for a little walk. I have to go back to school to attend to some things, so I won''t bother you here
anymore. But don''t worry, Mica, tomorrow I''lle and pick you up and bring you the gift.
Mica nodded smiling and said:
-I don''t care about the gift. As long as I can see you, I will be very happy.
After these words, the three left the banquet hall and the four bodyguards immediately followed them.
They rode the elevator down to the second floor and there was already a car waiting outside. Alba said
goodbye to her friend with a kiss on the cheek, got into the car and left.
Then Carlos took Mica to another car.
-Where are we going at this hour? -asked Mica.
-I''m taking you to receive your birthday present," Carlos answered with a mysterious smile on his lips.
Mica didn''t expect that the gift the man was referring to was an amusement park!
The amusement park was so big that you couldn''t see the other end from its front door. It was equipped
with all kinds of amusement facilities, which were decorated with multicolored lights.
Mica took Carlos by the hand, ran inside and stopped, asking in surprise:
-Why is no one else seen here except the two of us?
-I have reserved the whole park for you. You can entertain yourself as you like today," the man replied.

Mica was stunned on the spot and said to him:
-Why did you waste so much money?! It''s livelier when there are more people in the park.
At this moment, a bodyguard who was behind them suddenly said:
-Miss, it''s because?
Carlos gave him a cold look and the tall, strong bodyguard immediately shut up.
-Because I want to give you the most unique happiness in this world and because I don''t want to share
your smile with anyone else," Carlos whispered softly in her ear.
Mica instantly made a flushed face and said in a low voice:
-You are too dominant!
The man smiled slightly, took her by the hand and kept walking forward as he spoke:
-Yes, I am dominant, that''s why you have to get used to me, understand?
Mica obediently advanced with the man into the park.
Do you want to ride the merry-go-round? -Carlos turned around and asked Mica as he saw the
carousel spinning in front of him.
The woman nodded with much excitement.
The staff opened the railing for them and they both climbed in. First Carlos helped her onto the wooden
horse, then he sat behind her as he hugged her around the waist.
Mica was very embarrassed and asked him:
-There are so many empty seats there, why do you have to ride on the same horse with me!!!!
-Because I want to sit with you," Carlos answered simply.
Mica was speechless for a moment.
After they were both seated properly, the carousel began to spin. Mica stretched her arms and
smiled happily. The man asked in a low, sweet voice behind her back:
-Would you like me to take you to ride on a real horse next time?
-Yes!" the woman said without any dy.
Suddenly Mica felt like sharing everything she was keeping in her chest with Carlos and slowly she
said to him:
-I don''t remember anything before the traffic ident, that''s why I don''t know if my parents have ever
apanied me to entertain me to any amusement park. But I do know that I never went to any
amusement park after returning to the Elvira family from the orphanage. Every time Marta took Adriana
to y in amusement parks, she never let me go with them.....
Mica paused and continued talking:
-Andrina used to brag about how fun and cheerful she was every time she came back from amusement
parks and I was very envious. It''s a shame from my childhood that I never went to the amusement
park.
Carlos was a little distressed after hearing the woman''s words and told her a secret of his:
-Actually, I haven''t been to any amusement park since I was little either, that''s why, it can be said that
today we have fulfilled our childhood wish together.
Mica showed an incredible expression and asked:
-Really? You really haven''t entertained yourself in any amusement park before either?
The next second, Mica immediately thought that Carlos must have been strictly cultivated as the heir
of the Aguayo family since he was a child and that he must not have had free time like other children to
y carefree.
Therefore, since childhood, he always showed a serious and indifferent expression with others.
Carlos did not want to pursue this heavy subject, so he tried to speak in a light tone:
-Then, darling,e and y with me idly!
Afterwards, the two of them almost experienced all the amusements of the park, including the thrilling
roller coaster. Their joyfulughter spread all over the park....
Mica looked with great excitement and gratitude at Carlos. If he hadn''t booked the whole park, this
ce would have been full of people lined up by now and it would have been impossible for them to
finish all the rides in one night.
-Carlos, what time is it now? -asked Mica casually, who still wanted to ride the Ferris wheel.
Carlos nced at his wristwatch and said:
-It''s almost one o''clock.
