Chapter 1614 - Calculating Gifts
As the subway was halfway to a stop, the man who had turned himself in earlier got off, presumably to
turn himself in.
Angelica leaned back in her chair, half asleep, and sat there until she reached the station.
Leaving the subway station, Angelica took off the jacket she was wearing and returned it to Manuel.
Her clothes had dried on the way, so she did not even need to wear Manuel's jacket.
Manuel reached out and took the jacket before casually laying it on his shoulders, "Your school is still
far away, it's just a short cab ride."
"No Manuel, you can leave me here, I will go to school alone."
"I've already called a cab, it's on its way."
The car was about to arrive at the station, Manuel arranged everything and then reached out and
squeezed Angelica's shoulder, "Come on, I'll take you there."
"But, don't you have classes this afternoon? Will it be too late for you to come back?"
"No, it's fine."
Finally Manuel brought Angelica safely back to school.
"Come in, take your things inside."
"Okay, thank you , then hurry back to class."
Manuel smiled slightly, "I'll watch you go in."
Angelica walked and turned her head toward him at every turn. As soon as she entered the dormitory, Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Manuel also left. Due to the fact that classes were starting early, there was no one in the dormitory.
Angelica carried her things to the room and went to school. She ran to class at the last moment before
the call. Her whole body was sweating as she ran.
"Angelica, where have you been all afternoon and why are you only here now?"
- I went for work to a place, came back only, whispering she replied."
- A little more, and you would definitely be late. The class will start soon."
Yes, a little later and she would be called, but fortunately she had arrived on time.
After class, Angelica remembered that she had left her gift in the dormitory and had to go back to
explain it to Michela and Genara.
So she quickly packed up her textbooks and headed for the dormitory.
When she arrived at the dormitory, Angelica found that Genara and Michela had already returned and
were lying down with their masks on, and when she saw her return, she asked, somewhat unhappily.
"Angelica, didn't we see you leave with the presents? Why did the presents come back again?"
Angelica was a little embarrassed, "Sorry, you got a present, but my brother didn't want it."
"What? How can you not want it?"
Genara immediately stood up, so excited that the mask almost fell off her face.
Michela gave her a sideways glance before calming down.
"Angelica, is it because Manuel doesn't want it, or did you not even try to hand it over? Don't worry,
even if one day we become your sister-in-law, we will not take your brother away from you, we will only
treat you as well as your brother, and then you will have one more person to spoil you.
One more person to spoil her? She didn't want that.
Of course Angelica did not say that.
She explained seriously, "I will deliver for you, if I promise, I will never go back on my word, I have
come a long way, but my brother says he does not accept gifts from anyone."
"And why?"
Angelica remembered what Pacino had said and tightened her lips before saying, "There are so many
people who give gifts to my brother, if he took them all it would be impossible, but if he took gifts from
only one person it wouldn't be fair to the others, so he doesn't take from anyone."
Michela did not believe it.
"Did he say those words himself?"
Angelica tugged at the hem of her shirt, "Pacino told me."
"The boy next to your brother?"
Michela narrowed her eyes and thought again, that Pacino was indeed a talker, he had invited them to
dinner late last time, and every time he saw Angelica, his eyes lit up like nothing, his mind was clear.
If it was him, then it was possible.
Michela smiled slightly, "And was your brother there when Pacino said this?"
Angelica nodded.
"Yes."
"I heard everything."
"And you didn't say anything? Or you didn't say anything for us? It's okay not to accept gifts from other
people, but we are not other people, and your brother adores you, Angelica, you should put in a good
word for us in front of your brother."
"Yes Angelica," Genara echoed, "your brother seems so cold, doesn't he like to be with other people? "
Angelica's lips twisted and she said helplessly, "I'm sorry, I already brought it to you, but my brother
doesn't accept it, so I can't help you."
After saying this, Angelica added.
"By the way, if you really don't trust me, next time you will have a chance to deliver it yourself."
"I have to go for a run, so I will leave first."
Angelica said and left the dormitory without waiting for the two to respond.
Neither Genara nor Michela had time to call her before Angelica was already leaving.
"What the hell?"
Michela was so angry that she kicked the present, "You think you're arrogant because you're her
sister?"
Genara: "......"
She gave Michela a weak look and whispered, "Maybe she didn't accept it, think about it, she went to
her brother's after school with our gifts and it took her a long time to get there and back and she was
almost late when she came back."
"What does that mean?" Michela looked at her amused, "Genara, how could you be fooled by her all of
a sudden when she ran out with the presents and you could see whether they were delivered or not?
She could have made up those words."
Genara: "I don't think so, she seems so honest and easy to mistreat.
- Maybe it's just her imagination? Still water destroys bridges! Suddenly, she likes Manuel for herself,
so she called herself his younger sister to protect all the other girls from him."
"Do you think that's possible?"
Genara did not like Livia, but she treated Angelica normally. She did not like her very much, but she still
did not see her as their enemy. However, they spent more than a semester together. This time was
enough to discover a person's character.
"Genara, are you questioning my judgment? If you don't believe me, then try bringing the gift to Manuel
yourself."
"I think it is fine, if it is true, as you say, that he will not deliver it for us, then we might as well do it
ourselves."
"Easy for you to say, you don't even know what school he goes to."
"And easy to find out? Let's invite Angelica out to dinner and ask her to call her brother with her, and
then we'll hand him over in front of everyone, isn't that okay?"
