My Dear Mr. Nice

Chapter 14 : Congratulations On Making It To Marriage

Chapter 14 : Congratulations on making it to marriage

Reality was always so cruel and the slap in the face was always so unexpected.

Micaela had been to many places for five days in a row and had come up empty-handed.

-I'm sorry, we've already found someone!

-We want more than 3 years of relevant work experience, sorry!

-I don't think you fit the profile we are looking for, see you again!

***

As Micaela walked through the crowded shopping streets, she began to doubt her own abilities and

even wondered if Marcos had secretly plugged her for her job from before....

It couldn't be, she never told him she was going to interview anywhere, and only when she left that

company did she find out that Marcos was a shareholder there....

In front of her was a large jewelry store with a job advertisement on the door.

Micaela looked at the time, it was almost 5 o'clock.... ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Will there be someone to interview me?".

But these stores were open at night, so to go in and ask!

Micaela didn't have it in her mind to look for face-to-face jobs, it wasn't that she discriminated that kind

of work, but she had done a similar job before!

Because of her striking looks and a bit of light makeup, she always had people around her with very

obvious intentions, and eventually she gave up the idea of doing that kind of work.

But in recent days, life had forced her to learn to keep her head down.

Her profession was jewelry design and appraisal, and she could take that selling jewelry as a good way

to research the market.

Micaela settled down and pushed open the door.

After several interviews and written tests, the store manager was particularly pleased with her and

couldn't stop nodding his head.

Her looks, temperament, and education were far above and beyond the position!

The store manager was eager to hire her.

Micaela was also relieved to finally have a job.

The store manager approached with the contract and was suddenly called over by a man in a suit

uniform who whispered something in her ear, and the manager looked at Micaela with a quizzical look

on his face....

Micaela immediately had a bad feeling....

-Miss Noboa, I'm sorry, we can't hire you!

The director apologized, thinking in his mind: "Oh, it's a pity...".

Micaela's heart sank to the bottom, but she smiled back, got up and headed outside.

With a discreet glance at the full-length mirror on the wall, which reflected the vip reception room on the

other side of the room, Micaela turned and looked.

The door was open and the figure of the woman inside looked especially familiar.

Micaela rounded the corner.

The woman inside spoke with her usual smug tone:

-Ha ha ha, that's it, you've done very well!

-Thank you, Miss Elvira.

The man's voice was especially flattering.

-You must inform all the stores that she is not to be hired!

-Yes, yes, yes, yes!

-Well, if not, the Elvira Group and the Franco Group....

-Don't worry, Miss Elvira, we won't offend Grupo Franco because of a simple employee!

-I am a super VIP of your store, if you offend me, I will go to your competitors and give them more

business.

-We are at your service, Miss Elvira. I will advise that Miss Noboa is not to be hired at any time.

Micaela was standing in front of the door and heard it loud and clear.

It turned out that this was all about Adriana!

It seemed that all the companies he had gone to in the last few days, where he had been turned down,

had been because of her.

The words she whispered in his ear a few days ago echoed in his ears.

"Micaela, you're sure to come back crying and begging!".

Micaela clenched her fists angrily, was this what he was doing to make her come back crying begging

him? Begging him to send her to an old lord's bed?

Adriana turned suddenly and saw Micaela at the door, without the slightest hint of guilt, and with a

smile on her face and her arms crossed, she approached slowly and slowly.

-Micaela, how are you?

Micaela stroked the long hair around her ears, with a slight smile on her face.

-Thanks to you, I'm doing very well! But you, with your new job as ambassador, how come you have

time to go out at this hour?

Adriana frowned, they cancelled her ambassador role for no reason, she wasn't announced to the

public, Micaela couldn't know that!

-Well, I've come to choose some jewelry for my engagement to Marcos!

-Well, congratulations on making it to the wedding.

Micaela spoke calmly.

Adriana hated her calm look, how could she be so calm when she was homeless, had been dumped by

her boyfriend and couldn't find a job!

-I'll accept your blessing for now. I can't help it, I'm blessed by God and I lack nothing. I can't put myself

in your shoes, because I've never experienced that of having nothing.

-I have nothing, and it's all thanks to you!

Micaela's tone was still calm when she said this.

-Ha, ha, ha, what am I going to be so capable, it's Marcos, he supports me incredibly in everything I do,

he says, as long as I'm happy, I can do whatever I want, heh, heh, heh.....

Micaela looked away, she already knew very well what kind of person Marcos was, and now that she

knew it, she didn't feel anything anymore...

-Micaela, beg me, I might give you a job if I'm in a good mood!

Micaela looked at Adriana's face of hypocrisy, she would rather starve to death than beg her!

She turned to leave, but the moment she did, she saw the door of the jewelry store open from outside

and the person entering was none other than Marcos.

The store manager and the manager approached to welcome him into the vip room with a hunched

back.

-Marcos, you're here. I can't pick out an engagement ring without you.

Adriana stepped forward and took Marcos' arm, showing off proudly to Micaela, not noticing that her

boyfriend was now looking at Micaela with a complicated expression.

Micaela felt dirty with one look at Marcos and turned to leave.

-Micaela, there's no hurry, I haven't chosen the engagement ring yet, come and help me!

Adriana said to stop her.

With that she seemed to get along great with Micaela and walked out to the counter with her left arm

around Micaela and her right arm around Marcos to look at the jewelry.

Micaela pulled her hand away, wasn't she trying to be irritating, did she think she was afraid of him?

-I am a connoisseur of jewelry and I will be sure to pick out the perfect outfit for you, something that will

bring out your natural beauty.

Adriana was a little taken aback by the compliment.

The store manager and director were in the back, serving tea and nodding their heads and doing their

best to serve these two great characters.

Mark's eyes kept roaming over Micaela, with the feeling that she had become someone different.

She was already attractive, and now, it was simply impossible to take his eyes off her.

-Come on, beautiful, show me this ring and this necklace!

Micaela looked at a white gold set with pearls on the counter and beckoned to the sales clerk.
