Her Second Marriage With Mr. Cristian

Angelica thought of nothing else, so she answered very quickly.

“Mom, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing happened, I just wanted to ask if you have eaten? After all, the time is late, I worry about you.”

Angelica listened and took a sip of her soup, but when she finished, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Why was her mother suddenly asking her if she was coming home?

Is that something to ask?

Angelica’s ears turned red as she realized why her mother was suddenly asking:

“Mom, what are you talking about?”

Irritation and anger could be heard in the girl’s voice. Fiona quickly realized that she was thinking in the right direction, and unable to resist, she laughed: – And what? You’re an adult, can’t I ask you about your plans?

“But …”

As the conversation took a very strange turn, Angelica could no longer remain calm. She looked timidly at the closed door; Manuel had not yet returned.

Angelica put down the spoon, dried her hands with a napkin and picked up the phone, turning off the speakerphone.

“Mother , I am still eating, I will come back when I have eaten.”

“All right, all right, take your time eating, even if you don’t come back tonight, no one will blame you.”

“?!”

Angelica argued, angry and anxious, “We are not like that!”

And she still wasn’t sure how Manuel felt about her, despite the fact that he treated her very well. Not only did he give her a gift of adulthood, but he also gave her a birthday necklace of seven stars and a crescent moon.

Angelica could not say how much she liked the gift.

Fiona sighed and said, “-I saw you two growing up together. I don’t know what kind of person Manuel is? I have confidence in him.

Well, if so, what is it all about.

“Silly girl, do you think I’m worried about him? I’m worried about you!

Angelica: “…”

What, do you really mean you are insecure?

Angelica’s face immediately became even redder.

“Okay, okay, – Okay, okay, I’m not going to bore you, rather eat.”

After that Fiona hung up the phone and no longer disturbed the young couple.

Angelica sat there with the phone in her hand, her face and ears all hot, Manuel didn’t know when he would finish his call, would he be suspicious when he came back and found her ears and face red?

Angelica, for example, was so prone to thinking about the wrong things after the conversation with her mother that one glance could make her think.

So she got up and decided to go to the bathroom to wash her face before Manuel arrived to remove some ‘redness.

So Angelica put down her phone on the table and quickly stood up and opened the compartment door.

When the door opened, he bumped into Manuel , who was returning, and Angelica ran right into his chest because he was too fast.

Manuel mechanically grabbed the girl by the shoulders .

“Where are you going like this?”

Angelica was wearing an evening gown, so it was direct skin-to-skin contact when Manuel’s hand rested on her shoulder, the heat of his palm still warm.

“Ah, are you done with the phone call?”

“Yes.” Manuel nodded, when Angelica found her balance, she quietly removed her hand, “Finished calling.”

“Who called you?”

Manuel did not want to say anything, but now that he saw her look so naive, he said, “It’s coming from home.”

“Home? Is that Aunt Serena?” Angelica tilted her head.

“Yes.” Manuel looked into the girl’s eyes and said quietly, “Did you ask me to come home early?”

Angelica froze.

There was silence in the air for a long time. time. Manuel looked victoriously at the girl and her ruddy cheeks. Then he lowered his head and smiled and asked:

Or don’t you want to go home soon?”

Perhaps Angelica was wrong, but for some reason it always seemed to her that Manuel was doing this on purpose.

Thinking about it, she said indignantly, ” You are learning to be bad!”

“Bad?” Manuel pretended not to understand, “- What’s bad? After all, today is your coming of age, I wanted to go out with you, what does being naughty have to do with staying out late and taking you out for a late dinner?”

At her words, Angelica went to look into Manuel’s eyes and found that he had pure eyes and a normal expression, without a trace of bad intentions.

Could it be that she is thinking too much about herself and has a mean view of the situation?

After all, what he had said sounded right.

Thinking about it, if I had not called her, Angelica would not have had such thoughts.

With this in mind,, Angelica silently turned her head and returned to the table.

“Didn’t you have to go out?”

Manuel approached her and pulled out a chair to sit down, “Why didn’t you come out?”

– I wasn’t planning to go out. I just wanted to see if you finished the call. Having said that, Angelica found that she had not even blushed and her heart was not beating as fast, even though she had lied to Manuel.

Isn’t that great!

He mentally gave himself credit for this, and then continued to bury his head in his food.

Manuel placed a plate of fish with the bones removed in front of her and asked, “Is there anywhere else you would like to go tonight?”

Where do I want to go?

Angelica shakes her head, “Nowhere.”

She was quite tired today, and even though she was happy, some events still left their import.

So he just wanted to finish his meal and go home to rest.

Seeing that she had no enthusiasm to go anywhere, Manuel immediately understood why she was angry. So she did not offer more, and just said:

“Okay, then I’ll take you home.

All right, thank you.”

After that the compartment was quiet and the two ate their meal in silence.

Suddenly, there was such thunder in the air that Angelica jumped with fright.

“It’s thundering.”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Angelica looked out the window. At that moment lightning appeared and immediately heavy rain began to fall.

Manuel got up and opened the window, and a cold breeze came in.

“The wind has picked up and it’s raining.”

Angelica went to the window and saw large raindrops, and how people were running to hide from it as soon as possible.

“Why is it raining all of a sudden?”

“The weather is unpredictable; it is quite normal that it may rain suddenly.”
