Chapter 1099: Priceless
A few days before New Year’s Eve, Nico flew to Europe for a business trip, on official business.
I wanted to take Micaela with me, but since this year Micaela wasn’t coming back to L-Town to spend New Year’s Eve with Malia and planned to spend it with Nico, Micaela brought Malia to the center of the Holy City a few days early to take her around town and spend New Year’s Eve with her grandmother in advance. The plan was to take Malia around town and spend New Year’s Eve with her grandmother.
Micaela had just come down from the top floor of the Bayshore with Malia in tow when a stretch Lincoln pulled up in front of the building and blocked their path.
Out of the Lincoln stepped an elegant, unusually sophisticatedly dressed woman with a striking, attractive face.
When Micaela looked into her eyes, it seemed to her that the well-groomed, middle-aged woman looked familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had seen her before.
The woman, wearing a long beige cashmere coat with a light-colored cashmere slim-fit dress, was walking toward Micaela with a pair of handmade white heels under her feet.
Malia looked at Micaela, “Micaela, do you know her?”
Micaela shook her head, trying only to remember the lady who looked familiar, “No.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Until the woman approached Micaela, with a warm and kind smile on her delicate face, and held out her hand to Micaela to greet her, “Hi, I’m Carlita, Nico’s mother.”
Carlita, Nico’s biological mother.
No wonder Micaela looked familiar. Nico’s beauty, and that of the woman in front of her, bore a certain resemblance, and it was no wonder that she looked familiar to Micaela.
It’s just that Micaela hadn’t expected Nico’s mother to come to her, let alone what Nico’s mother wanted from her.
Carlita said politely, “This is a first meeting and I know it’s rude to come to you so abruptly, but …. Miss Micaela, may I speak to you alone?”
Carlita looked at Malia and motioned for her to step aside.
This middle-aged woman, from hair to toe, reveals refinement and elegance everywhere. The years have favored her so much that there are few, if any, crow’s feet on her beautiful face, and even if there are, those crow’s feet bring the elegance and sensuality that a woman of Carlita’s age should have.
But for some reason, Micaela’s first feeling was that she didn’t like this man.
This is a man who is not the warm, gentle kindness he appears to be.
Micaela said to Malia, “Grandma, why don’t you go upstairs and wait for me, then we’ll go out to dinner after I talk to Mrs. Carlita. ”
Malia didn’t say much, she just patted Micaela’s hand and instructed her to mind her manners.
Malia got in and Carlita’s driver opened the door to the back seat of the Lincoln, “Miss Micaela, please.”
Carlita and Micaela sat in the back seat of the Lincoln and talked.
Micaela is no stranger to uninvited guests like Carlita, and has always had her heart on a high pedestal, “May I ask what Ms. Carlita wants from me?”
Carlita didn’t mince words and said, “I found out online that Miss Micaela is now Nico’s girlfriend, and I saw that Nico was very protective of Miss Micaela online, so I think Nico really likes Miss Micaela. I’m sure Miss Micaela understands my feelings as a mother.”
The corners of Micaela’s lips tensed slightly, and she couldn’t tell if she was pleased or angry, but she merely said, “Now that Ms. Say hello to Mr. Nico. ”
Micaela’s tone is not kind, nor does she show any kind of flattery or flattery towards Carlita for being Nico’s real mother, but rather she clearly separates herself from her, as if she wants nothing to do with her.
Micaela’s condescension and indifference displeases a wealthy lady like Carlita, who lives in good circumstances and with a privileged material life.
A hot face on a cold ass is still the attitude of an unmarried daughter-in-law towards her future mother-in-law.
This more or less irritated Carlita.
But her excellent manners made Carlita stand still, but her voice became piercing, “Miss Micaela, the main reason I came to see you today was to ask Nico to take you to dinner with me, since you are his girlfriend, it is only fair that we have a family dinner.
It means that she has been asked to act as an intermediary and convince Nico to come to Carlita to eat with his ungrateful mother.
But who is Micaela to do what annoys Nico to please Carlita, an outsider?
Micaela’s expression was subtle, but not annoyed or angry, and she said casually, “Mrs. Carlita has complimented me.
“You …” Carlita hadn’t expected this girl to be so condescending. She had thought that Micaela was just a playwright and would be very flattering when she saw her, but now she had miscalculated.
Micaela continued, “As for dinner, Mrs. Carlita is Mr. Nico’s real mother, so I think it’s best if Mrs. Carlita takes care of Mr. Nico herself. ”
In three words, coolly, she turned away from the whirlwind of relations, dripping water and leaving Carlita gaping, and for a moment, her face sank.
“Miss Micaela, you have been in the entertainment industry for the past few years and have been blessed by Nico, if it wasn’t for Nico, you wouldn’t be here today. You just said that this is our family affair and it has nothing to do with you, you are just Nico’s girlfriend. Since you can see clearly, then I won’t say anything obscure.”
Micaela looked calm, her composure contained a slight slightly curly smile, charming and cool, “And what does Ms. Carlita have to say?”
Carlita began to look at Micaela with undisguised contempt, “There are many girls like you hanging around Nico in the entertainment industry, you’re only close to Nico because you want to even things up and make a fortune in life that you won’t be able to earn even if you try hard in your life. In that case, how about you make an offer and do me this favor?”
Make an offer. Surely the tone of a posh mother.
But Micaela is no Mary Sue.
Micaela merely sketched a carefree, fearless smile, “Sure, but … I don’t think Ms. Carlita can pay the price I’m asking.”
Carlita scoffed at the fact that she was just a shallow, ignorant actress who wouldn’t be a good match for Nico after all. “Go ahead and drive.”
Carlita would like to see how far the young woman in front of her could go.
Micaela took a sip of the coffee in front of her, sipping it with a slightly bitter, mild taste, her slightly teasing almond eyes looked directly at Carlita, her pretty red lips slowly exhaling two words, “Priceless.”
