Chapter 73 : But I can't even get close to him a little bit....
Ernesto looked towards Carlos with surprise, and the other said nothing. With his silence he admitted it.
That was a fact.
The first time when he had met Micaela that night at the hotel, he had kicked Roberto, but he had not
thought of doing anything else to that man. However, when he gradually realized his feelings for
Micaela, half a month after the incident he planned to bankrupt the man.
Carlos would never allow anyone to touch a hair on his wife's head!
At the door of the VIP room, Leonardo and the general manager of Celotierra entered, along with a
waitress who would not stop crying.
The CEO made a small bow to Carlos as he entered the room:
-Mr. Aguayo, we are very sorry for the inconvenience, we did not expect this to happen, we will take
care of all the expenses today....
-Shut up," Ernesto interrupted his sentence loudly, "nobody cares about the expenses, what you have
to take care of is today's incident! Where are the suspects?
-Yes yes yes yes, you are absolutely right. We have already sent people to look for the suspect all over
the hotel, we can assure you that not a fly will escape!
Then the manager pulled the waitress forward:
-We have already arrested the people who had cheated!
Micaela and Olivia approached with their faces full of tears.
The waitress fell at Carlos' feet because of the director's strong pull. Due to the fear she felt she was
crying more and more, between sobs she said:
-I'm very sorry sir, but I didn't lie to you with intention.....
Carlos looked at the woman on the floor with an expressionless face.
It was this woman!
If it wasn't for this woman, I would surely have gone into the sink to confirm it. Then that wouldn't
happen to Micaela!
Carlos said nothing, he just looked at the director with a penetrating gaze.
The director wiped some sweat from his face, spoke in a louder tone:
-Open your eyes wide and see clearly! All the people in this room are great people of Teladia. Tell me
honestly, why did you lie?
The woman panicked and shook her head.
-I didn't lie. When I got out of the elevator I really saw a woman who wanted to get into the elevator.
The description of her body and height matched what this man indicated....
The woman cried pitifully, it didn't look like a lie.
Micaela felt sorry for her and said to Carlos:
-Maybe she is telling the truth, it was just a coincidence?
Carlos frowned and looked at the director and said:
-Show me the video surveillance!
-Yes sir, I'll set it up right away!
The director left immediately to get everything ready.
Leonardo suddenly asked:
-Do you still remember what that person looked like?
The waitress thought and answered:
-She must be about 20 years old, she was wearing a nice white dress and carrying a hat.....
Leonardo began to have a bad feeling.
At that moment, some hotel employees came in. They looked at the director, then at Carlos who, as he
had a powerful countenance, did not dare to approach, so they stayed at the door and said looking at
his feet: ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
-Chief, we have already checked the whole hotel, there is no one suspicious.
As soon as they finished the words, the atmosphere worsened....
Micaela pulled Carlos' arm a little and said:
-Maybe just by chance, the woman came to eat and left. Mr. Gallo is bankrupt, that's why he is mentally
unstable. I recently went out to take a call and had the bad luck to run into him. Maybe it's not such a
complicated thing. Besides, I'm fine now, aren't I?
Carlos looked at Micaela, he didn't say yes or no. He was tired. The woman's tiredness was evident on
her face. Since they did not find the suspect and the surveillance could also be watched from home,
Carlos addressed everyone:
-We are leaving. Let's meet another day," he then turned to the director. I will send my people to check
the video surveillance. You must cooperate with them.
As the matter was related to Micaela, reliable people were needed for the job.
-Yes, yes, yes, yes! We definitely won't have any negligent ones! -the director hastened to reply.
Carlos left with Micaela in his arms, not forgetting to take the bag that was hanging on the back of the
chair. Micaela took the bag from Carlos' hands immediately. The image of Carlos carrying her bag was
quite strange to her.
Carlos did not give her reaction any more importance.
Everyone left the VIP room.
It was already touching nine o'clock, but the night on the town was just beginning.
In the hotel lobby, there was still some chaos caused by the suspicious person. The general manager
waved his hand hurriedly indicating people to disperse so as not to disturb Mr. Aguayo any further.
Diego Ocampo was already waiting at the door of the hotel.
Olivia said goodbye to Micaela especially, they saved their phone numbers and added each other on
WhatsApp before parting ways.
Diego noticed that Micaela was wrapped in the gentleman's coat, plus she had one hand holding the
collar of the clothes all the time. Despite being curious, he did not ask anything. He opened the back
door. The two people got into the car.
The director watched the three cars drive away and sighed.
"Who was the person who dared to touch Mr. Aguayo's wife, he was sticking his neck out!"

Leonardo took Olivia to his house. The two of them stayed for quite a while before Olivia entered her
residential area.
When he returned to his car, he pulled out his cell phone and made a call. A woman answered on the
other end of the line:
-Tell me Leonardo.
-Did you come to Celotierra tonight?
The other side of the line went silent.
-Was it you? What happened tonight? -Leonardo insisted.
-I don't know what you're talking about....
-Amelia, tell me the truth! -Leonardo's tone was especially serious.
Now he regretted very much having told her where Carlos was having dinner.
Amelia Atenas stopped for a few seconds before answering:
-Yes, I came and saw the woman you mentioned to me, and I left.
-That's all?
-Yes, but I will not give up! -she answered with conviction.
Leonardo felt a little helpless.
-Amelia, why are you clinging to Carlos?
-Leonardo, I really love him very much, but I can't even get close to him, not even a little.... I am so
sad... -I'm so sad..." The woman's tone was tearful.
Leonardo immediately empathized with her. He imagined that at that moment Amelia's face would be
full of tears. However, the woman who stood in front of the window of the Athens family's villa, did not
show even a hint of sadness on her face, but a sinister and horrifying face.

When Carlos and Micaela arrived at Nyisrenda, Tomas was already waiting for them. He was chatting
with Sofia in the living room, he said something and made Sofia had to cover her mouth trying to hold
back her laughter....
She approached when she saw the two of them enter.
Sister-in-law, did he scare you a lot?
Micaela again felt uncomfortable listening to this treatment....
-If I was asked to write the essay of that memorable day again, surely I can do thousands of words!
Micaela couldn't hold her laughter when she heard that.
-First go back to the room to change, then I have something to talk to you about," said Carlos looking at
Micaela.
Micaela nodded her head and went up to her room.
