Chapter 186: Mr. Adam proposes!
“I know, but I … I’m not really ready to meet Adam yet, I’m afraid that the feelings between him and me, have changed … Miss Star, Adam he … must be good to you, right?”
Analena Lozada is gentle and clean-cut in appearance, not aggressive, very different from the arrogant beauty of Olivia Montes, especially when she looks at her and speaks to her with warmth and softness, Estrella Berrocal can’t tell if she has an ulterior motive or is really just asking.
But every question Analena Lozada asks is like a knife in her heart.
Was Adán Rouco good for her?
If Adán Rouco was good to her, it was probably because she was Paulita’s real mother and because of her resemblance to Analena Lozada.
Adán Rouco looks her in the face and probably inflicts the guilt he feels for Analena Lozada on her, so he is kind to her?
Seeing Estrella Berrocal’s long silence, Analena Lozada calls out to her, “Miss Estrella?”.
Estrella Berrocal came back from her daze: “Miss Analena, you have already met me, if you have nothing else, I would like to leave”.
Estrella Berrocal got up to leave with her purse, but Analena Lozada stopped her, “Miss Estrella, if you and Adán are happy now, I am willing to leave, as long as Adán is well, I can’t go to see Adán, I am a dead person and suddenly I appear. I’m sure it’s awkward for everyone.”
Estrella Berrocal was more annoyed than pleased by his gentle tone: “I don’t know if Adán Rouco is well or not, if you want to know, you ask him!
Analena Lozada didn’t seem to expect me to lose my temper and was a bit stunned.
Estrella Berrocal ignored her and left the café with her purse.
In the cab, Estrella Berrocal’s mind went blank.
The driver asked her, “Where are you going, miss?”.
Estrella Berrocal thought for a moment and looked at the skyscrapers gliding by, almost to the Rouco Group. “To the Rouco Group.”
…
Adán Rouco had just left the conference room when he heard the voice of a familiar little woman.
“Adam?”
He turned his head to look and Estrella Berrocal had trotted into his arms.
Adán Rouco wrapped his arms around her slender waist, a little surprised, but he frowned and scolded her in a low voice: “Why are you walking so fast when you’re pregnant?”
Although he is scolding, his tone is especially gentle.
Estrella Berrocal hung her arms around his neck, “It’s just that I’ve suddenly missed you a little bit, so…”
But before he could finish his sentence, several more executives left the conference room.
Adán Rouco and Estrella Berrocal, who happened to be blocking the entrance to the conference room.
The executives were stunned.
President Rouco had never had an affair, and if he had, he would never have had an affair with a woman in public.
Estrella Berrocal felt so embarrassed that she wanted to make a hole in the floor in front of the executives’ eyes.
What a shame!
With that she pulled out of Adam Rouco’s arms and turned to run, but Adam Rouco wouldn’t let her. He grabbed her wrist with his big hand and pulled her back, lowering his head to her ear and saying in a voice only the two of them could hear, “Do you want to run away after half of your flirtation?”
“…”
There was a sudden lightness in her body as Adán Rouco bent down and picked her up in his arms.
Not only the executives, but even Santino Yepes, who was standing next to him, looked stunned.
Was the boss … was having sex with Miss Estrella in front of “everyone”?
This is unacceptable!
Estrella Berrocal blushed and struggled: “Put me down, there are a lot of people watching…”.
But Adán Rouco didn’t care, as if executives were transparent, he calmly said, “What’s wrong with hugging your wife, is it illegal?”
Estrella Berrocal raised her hand to cover his lips, but it was too late.
Adán Rouco’s voice was not too loud and, apparently, the executives’ ears were well …
Estrella Berrocal merely buried her face in Adán Rouco’s arms and urged him in a whisper, “Come on, come on, come on. …”
The man looked at her coyly and his thin lips curved.
Behind them, a group of executives, watching Adán Rouco’s back as he walked away, murmured.
“Mr. Santino, when did President Rouco get married?”.
“Yes, how come we didn’t know that?”.
“President Rouco got married, why didn’t you inform us, we were waiting to eat President Rouco’s wedding candy?”.
Santino Yepes spread his hands: “It’s not that you didn’t know, it’s that I didn’t even find out when the Chief got married”.
…
Estrella Berrocal cowered in Adán Rouco’s arms until he carried him into the office, then she grabbed hold of Adán Rouco’s chest shirt and cautiously poked her little head out, poking her head around the door and asking him warily, “There’s no one else, is there?”
Adán Rouco looked at her with a smirk, “Afraid to meet people and suddenly pout in front of the conference room?”
Estrella Berrocal’s ears burned red, “How was I supposed to know there was someone else in the conference room…”
The man lifted his long fingers and brushed her soft little face.
Estrella Berrocal suddenly thought about what he had just called her, what he had just hugged her, and what he had said to the executives at the entrance to the conference room.
What’s wrong with hugging your wife?
Wife?
Estrella Berrocal’s heart skipped a beat and she looked at him in disbelief.
Adán Rouco reassured: “Aren’t you ashamed to look at a man with such passionate eyes, girl?”.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
But for the moment, Estrella Berrocal had no shame, “Who did you say is your wife?”.
“The one I had just embraced.”
Estrella Berrocal blushed up to her neck and murmured sweetly, “I, I’m not your wife…”
The man leaned close to her, his fresh, masculine scent, spraying her ear, “Second child in the womb and you still won’t admit to being Mrs. Rouco?”
The large hand, caressed the small of her back.
“I …”
Estrella Berrocal choked and just stared at him in disbelief.
Adán Rouco reached out and clasped her hand in his arms, “Take some time this week and let’s go get the marriage license.”
Adán Rouco was not in favor of leaving a pregnant woman and not marrying her.
Estrella Berrocal had to recognize that her heart was in the right place.
She looked at him with teary eyes and said nothing for quite a while.
Adán Rouco caressed her little face: “Do you want me to propose to you before you say ‘yes’?
Estrella Berrocal brushed her lips in a feigned smile, “Yes, of course I won’t marry you if you don’t propose.”
If you knew Analena Lozada was still alive, would you still marry her?
Adán Rouco only wants to graduate with her now because she is pregnant and wants to give her a name, right? …
Estrella Berrocal does not want to think about that answer and falls into the arms of Adán Rouco: “I will not marry you if you do not propose to me”.
Adán Rouco silently notes the subject of the proposal.
…
That night, Adán Rouco called Santino Yepes.
“Book the top floor of the Banyan Tree Hotel for tomorrow night.”
“Yes boss.”
The top floor of the Banyan Tree Hotel is the best place in The Holy City for stargazing and nighttime viewing, an entire outdoor section for candlelit dining and soaking in the moonlight.
Will BOSS reserve the top floor of the Banyan Tree Hotel for tomorrow night for a date with Miss Star?
Santino Yepes asked, “Jefe, are you going out with Señorita Estrella?”.
To her surprise, the man responded with two words, “A marriage proposal.”
Santino Yepes got nervous.
Would the president who was always arrogant and overbearing and looked at others from an inferior angle … would also propose marriage to a woman with 999 roses on one knee?
