Chapter 150: A breakup among best friends
After Adán Rouco dropped Paulita off at daycare, he and Estrella Berrocal were the only ones left in the car.
She pursed her lips and couldn’t resist speaking up and remembering, “That … I’m going to work at Yahua Film and Television Company, you can drop me off at Yahua Film and Television Company on the way”.
Adam Rouco and she had just made peace and had not had time to mention it, and now that she did, she unconsciously looked at the side of the man’s face, which was indeed grim and unpleasant.
“I, I know you don’t like the idea of me working in Yahua Film and Television Company, but Yahua Film and Television Company is the best company for me in Ciudad del Norte right now, and I really like drawing and designing, Adan Rouco, even if you don’t support me to work in Yahua Film and Television Company, I will go anyway, but…. I would like you to support me.
At these words, Estrella Berrocal looked at him warily, fearing that he might suddenly lose his temper, but Adán Rouco, despite his cold, handsome face, showed no sign of attack.
Estrella Berrocal simply took her attitude as one of non-opposition and non-support.
The black Spyker stopped in front of the Yahua Film and Television Company, Estrella Berrocal picked up her purse and, seeing that he remained silent, had to say in a low voice: “I’m leaving then, drive carefully”.
She was turning to open the door when the man suddenly grabbed her left wrist and pulled her back.
Estrella Berrocal looked back at him, “What’s wrong?”.
“It’s fine for you to work at Yahua Film and Television Company, but you are not allowed to have any personal interaction with Jonathan Tasis other than work.”
The man’s face was sullen and his voice cold and clear, but it was undoubtedly the greatest concession Adán Rouco had ever made.
Estrella Berrocal curved her lips and turned to hug his neck, saying softly, “I won’t have any personal dealings with Jonathan Tasis, and since he’s Perla’s boyfriend, I won’t get too close to him. Don’t worry, I only work at Yahua Film and Television Company.”
Adán Rouco frowned slightly and grunted slightly in agreement.
“Shall I go then?”
The man took her hand with no intention of letting go, his dark eyes just staring deeply into her small face. “Is that all?”
Estrella Berrocal froze for a moment before responding, and with red-hot ears, she brought her lips close and deposited a sloppy kiss on his thin lips.
Adán Rouco blurted it out and said, “And don’t believe anything Jonathan Tasis says, he’s a very deep man.”
“Yes, I know.”
Estrella Berrocal got out of the car and returned to greet Adán Rouco inside before turning around and heading to the office.
Along the way, she humorously touched the diamond ring she wore on her ring finger, and the corners of her lips curved warmly.
…
Yahua Film and Television Company building, President’s office.
Jonathan Tasis was about to go to a meeting when a sudden noise was heard outside his office.
“Miss Perla, President Jonathan is going to have a meeting now and cannot come in.”
Outside, the loud voice of Perla Prats could be heard: “Stand back, I have to see Jonathan Tasis now, he has been avoiding me for a whole month!
Tulio Moralez could not stop him and Perla Prats burst into the office.
As soon as the office door opened, Jonathan Tasis looked up and Perla Prats, upon seeing him, frowned and asked, “Why don’t you see me?”
Was she that scared?
Jonathan Tasis put down the pen in his hand, sat back in his swivel chair and said coolly, “Perla Prats, I think I made it very clear to you that I’m not interested in you and that we broke up a month ago.”
Perla Prats was furious: “I didn’t say I was going to break up! Right now you’re still my boyfriend.”
Tulio Moralez, who was standing to the side, said awkwardly, “President Jonathan I’m sorry, Miss Perla had to come in and I, I couldn’t stop her…”
Jonathan Tasis took one look at Tulio Moralez and ordered him in a cold voice: “Go ahead, leave”.
“Yes, President Jonathan.”
After Tulio Moralez left the office, Perla Prats became even more reckless, “Jonathan Tasis, if you’re not interested in me, why did you agree to date me in the first place and give me a chance to like you?”
At first, she was just in love with Jonathan Tasis, it was Jonathan Tasis’ non-rejection that made her fall deeper and deeper, and now that she had made a genuine move, was Jonathan Tasis telling her that he wasn’t interested in her at all?
Perla Prats is the daughter of the Prats Group, who grew up with her brother Ricardo Prats in her arms, and has been spoiled by him since she was a child.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Perla Prats, you and I are adults, aren’t you ashamed to come after Yahua Film and Television Company like this?”.
Perla Prats’ eyes reddened and she bit her lip in shame: “Shame on me! I only like you, is that a shame?”.
“But I don’t like you, I saved your life at the bar as a gesture, then you said you liked me and wanted to be my girlfriend, it was all spontaneous, think about it, did I ever say I liked you? And when did I ever admit that you were my girlfriend?”.
Perla Prats’ tears, slid down her face as she choked out, “But you watch movies with me, you have dinner with me, we do all the things couples do with each other!”
Jonathan Tasis let out an amused laugh, “Watching a movie, having dinner, these are things even mutual friends can do, and the only reason I don’t refuse your requests is because you are the daughter of the Prats Group. ”
Perla Prats bit her lip and stared at him.
It was so fair that she couldn’t say anything to counter it.
Jonathan Tasis was right, he hadn’t done anything to her that went beyond being “just friends”, not even a hug, it was all in her head!
He clasped his hands and said slowly, word for word: “You like Estrella Berrocal, don’t you?”.
He had approached her with the intention of Estrella Berrocal.
His tone was rhetorical, but firm.
Estrella Berrocal, who was about to enter the office with her papers in hand, paused for a couple of seconds before quickly making her way through. “Perla, it’s not what you think, I have no personal relationship with President Jonathan.”
Perla Prats turned to her and sneered, “If you have no personal relationship with Jonathan Tasis, why did you go straight to Yahua Film and Television Company without my knowledge? Estrella, I have been your friend for many years, I consider you my best friend and will defend you unconditionally whenever you are in trouble, but you, why do you want to mess with the man I like?”
“Pearl, I came to Yahua Film and Television Company purely because Yahua Film and Television Company suits me and I …”
Perla Prats, angry, did not listen to Estrella Berrocal’s explanations and interrupted her directly, saying in a cold voice: “Estrella Berrocal, as of today, we are no longer friends!”
Perla Prats stepped forward to leave the room and Estrella Berrocal followed her, trying to pull her, but Perla Prats pushed her arm away.
After Perla Prats left the office, Estrella Berrocal frowned and said, “President Jonathan, why didn’t you explain this to Perla?”
“What was I going to explain to her? I made it clear to her a month ago that she was the one who didn’t understand.”
“But you were the one who gave Perla hope in the first place.”
Jonathan Tasis got up and prepared his papers for the meeting, and this fuss over Perla Prats didn’t bother him in the least, leaning over to Estrella Berrocal as he approached her. “I thought you were rushing because you were interested in the answer to that question. ”
Estrella Berrocal’s brow furrowed even more.
The answer?
He abruptly remembered that Perla Prats had asked him …. You like Estrella Berrocal, don’t you?
