Chapter 153: Chapter 153
At that, pedro turns as the door of the apartment behind him opens, after which he is speechless somehow as though he is moved by the appearance of a woman who makes him even freeze for a moment.
The dress she had previously chosen had shown to be very fitting on camilla, her small body dressed in a simple yet elegant gown made pedro seem to compliment himself for his ability to pick out camilla's dress.
But that was not the only reason pedro was still silent, one reason was when he saw the thin makeup on camilla's face making a blush on her side of him make his eyes even more attractive to his eyes, until his voice caused him to blink several times to regain his senses.
"I'm ready, are we going now?" Tanya camilla made pedro nod the number of times.
"Yes of course"Pedro answered without a word until pedro walked over camilla, while camilla was nervous about the steps she took, getting into the lift made it awkward for them somehow, she felt that the lift they were taking seemed too slow to walk.
Whether it was because of the atmosphere between them or time had slowed down, both of their thoughts stopped when suddenly the lift stopped shaking the iron box, camilla's footing wobbled so quickly right up to her waist that she would finally avoid the embarrassment of falling in front of him.
But what makes her heart beat even more so than that, she has now got a firm grip on his arm, so close to his now arms that he can even feel his own rapidly beating heart, let alone his stare at his face causing him to slowly let go of the grip.
"Thank you"Camilla's speech made pedro try to stabilize his heartbeat
"Be careful, especially if you're walking in those heels later" pedro said made camilla just nod along with the elevator running again, it would take but a few seconds for them to finally come out of the elevator making camilla and pedro go straight to the car that would take them to one of the parties.
As camilla had previously imagined herself unsuited to this extravagant party, when people in her captivating and luxurious surroundings allowed her to keep her face down.
"I promise I'll only be here for no more than an hour, I know you're uncomfortable" he said making camilla finally raise her face to gaze at him as if she were calm.
Camilla then stared at pedro's arm that she extended to him, making him understand that at this moment telling him to embrace the arm that would make camilla wrap his arm around his, they walked into the ballroom following his now greeting some clients from the company he was working in.
While camilla froze over and smiled at those who greeted her,Until a cheerful voice patted pedro from behind made pedro and camilla turn toward him
"Wow for the first time I've seen you take a woman to a party" said someone upset pedro, but camilla somehow noticed the look on his face when men who seemed to be their age gave him a friendly smile.
"Can't you pretend not to see me?" says pedro, making the man laugh the next moment he suddenly extends his hand to camilla causing camilla to just shut up and stare at him before accepting his helping hand.
"I Daniel is a friend of this cold man" said Daniel made camilla just an awkward smile.
"I am camilla" she said she caused Daniel to lift his eyebrows to look at her and make camilla look at him unawares, as if Daniel was still waiting for her to say another word when she knew he was coming to his senses.
"So what did you have to do with that cold guy?"Said Daniel, who was curious about camilla and pedro's relationship.
"You don't need to know and I'm not going to tell him, you might as well greet some of the women who are looking at you right now." says pedro, making Daniel stare in the back of him where some women smile at him and then turn their faces back on camilla.
"Forgive me this is too friendly for the women, I can't ignore those women like someone who, to this day, continues to ignore what they call female creatures, but I'm surprised that this time he first brought you in, you're lucky to be the first person he invited to a party." Daniel's speech left camilla speechless for some reason she did not believe herself to be the first woman pedro had attended this party.
"Don't listen to him, he's full of shit."The words of pedro made camilla just nod because she didn't know how to respond, arguing between the two men before her until she could finally breathe a little more freely when Daniel suddenly said good-bye to them to greet some of the other guests.
"Well then enjoy the party I'm going to have to say hello to some of my fans first and then don't forget to see me again before you leave the party. okay.
Pedro then invited camilla over to sit at one of the empty tables, offering her some refreshments and a snack.
"He's your friend? "Camilla asked pedro to stare at him for a moment.
"I don't know. I don't know if Daniel's my friend or not, but he keeps coming at me when I see him makes me uncomfortable."Pedro's speech made camilla pull the corners of his lips, but somehow his answer made camilla feel like smiling turned out that pedro was indeed a very difficult person, not only by women but also men thought camilla and camilla had the courage to approach him.
Whether that is to be commended at this time or it is to blame himself because somehow his love for pedro overcomes all fear within him and camilla seems to be grateful for his current closeness, even though she initially thought that pedro would instantly reject him but pedro's decision really made him want to fight his feelings even more, even though she might have to have a long distance to think about.
