The more Mikayla thought about it, the more absurd it seemed. She decided it must be the stress from work making her mind wander. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

As though her secrets were discovered, Natasha hurriedly wheeled herself over and covered the painting with a fine silk cloth

in her smile.

“You saw it, Mikayla” she said with a hint of embarrassment in

““Natasha, you have the right to pursue your happiness. Mikayla smiled faintly.

In the lamplight, Mikayla’s beauty captivated Natasha. From the moment Natasha laid eyes on Mikayla, she sensed the latter’s innate elegance and nobility, befitting of her aristocratic lineage.

“Mikayla, you’re beautiful. You suit Carlos better than Deidre. Natasha exclaimed, her eyes gleaming. “Have you met Deidre? She had been here at the Ludwig mansion with Carlos before and even came by a few days ago…

“I think I have… Mikayla was unsure.

“Deidre Mikayla remembered the woman who seemed to have a complicated relationship with Carlos back at Septem Nightclub. Though she wasn’t sure if it was just a misconception, she felt like Natasha was hinting at something

“Have you- Natasha was interrupted before she could finish her words.

“Mika, it’s time to go Carlos stood at the door, his brows furrowing imperceptibly.

“Okay.” Mikayla responded.

After bidding farewell to Garrett and Selena, Mikayla handed the monetary gift in her bag to Natasha before getting into the Ford with Carlos, With a light veil of quiet music covering them, the car felt warm and cozy.

“Don’t get too close to Natasha in the future,” Carlos said suddenly.

‘Carlos, who gave you such confidence? Mikayla was speechless, her mind reeling with disbelief. Suddenly, she recalled how she confidently presented the DNA test earlier. If Conrad had found out, she would have wanted to disappear on the spot.

Upon seeing Mikayla’s face contort with myriad emotions, Carlos gaze softened, the curve of his lips deepening

“Just kidding. It’s real. Carlos’s hand, resting on the steering wheel, moved slowly and accurately to grasp Mikayla’s slightly chilly hand. “I have to thank Elvis for this. I’m rarely in Xosa, so he provided me with all the information.”

Mikayla didn’t resist Carlos touch, her blue eyes giving him a playful glance.

“Mika, if you keep this up, I won’t be able to control myself, Carlos said, his grip on the steering wheel tightening slightly.

It wasn’t Mikayla’s first time in love, so she understood what Carlos meant. Not knowing if it was the warmth of the car’s heater or something else, she felt her cheeks flush. She rolled down the window, inluling deeply the fresh air from outside, feeling much better

“Mika,” Carlos called

“Mmm… Mikayla hummed, turning her head in response,
