My Dear Mr. Nice

Chapter 29 : Standing On My Own Merits!

Chapter 29 : Standing on my own merits!

So Carlos hadn't left recently, had he?

Micaela looked at the couch, had he spent the night there again?

Micaela bit her lip and opened the package. Today's was some porridge with a few snacks, very much

to Micaela'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 the laundry.

Micaela 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, Micaela 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, Micaela

hurried to stop the door from closing.

The man stepped inside and thanked her.

He smiled at Micaela in his gray suit and gold-rimmed glasses, looking svelte.

With a polite nod, Micaela 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 Micaela thoughtfully for a long moment, until the other woman coughed

dryly a couple of times and then looked away.

Micaela 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 explained 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 a large room with green plants all around and a compartmentalized office

area in the center, to which no people had yet arrived. The two women who had arrived gave Micaela a

curious glance 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 Micaela to step into the office and wait.

Micaela 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 Micaela and greeted her cordially.

-Micaela, you're here. Have you completed the onboarding process?

-Yes.

-Good, come 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 clapped her hands and everyone looked up.

-We have a new member on our team today, Micaela!

Micaela 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 Micaela!

Micaela 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 she laughed.

-We're all colleagues from now on, so let's be nice.

The office filled with laughter.

Micaela's mood was also much more relaxed.

Kiki explained a few simple things and then went into the inner office.

Micaela sat down on the stool and the colleague next to her immediately sat down and slid over to her.

-Micaela, hello, my name is Ana!

The girl had very elegant and playful short hair, looking super nice.

-Hello!

Micaela 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....

Micaela 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 Micaela's table first and said excitedly:

-Micaela, we have a canteen in the company, on the 4th floor, shall we have lunch together?

Seeing Micaela's dilemma, Ana, who was next to her, approached her.

-Micaela has already made an appointment!

-Yes, I have already met Ana....

Micaela hurried to take it calmly, giving Ana a grateful look.

The companion 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!

Micaela 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. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

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 Micaela and went out.

Alba soon arrived with two lunch boxes.

Micaela 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 the lady from the Nunez family a little, do you want me to call her

and ask her to take care of you?

-No, no!

Micaela flatly 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's company, it would have been a simple matter of me saying so!

Micaela 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 Micaela's delicate, serene profile.

That's how it was when she was in college, Micaela 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 accept it, and when she really had no other choice, he would borrow it and then pay her back

as expected.

Micaela, who was weak on the outside but strong on the inside, gave Alba grief.

Micaela looked at the dishes, all of which she loved.

Micaela looked at Alba, the pampered lady 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, Micaela took out the trash and when she returned, she saw Alba waiting for her with her

legs crossed.

-Dear Micaela, is there something you're not telling me?
