Chapter 1656 Hotel
No problems?
Angelica looked at the pouring rain and a strange thought gradually came to her mind.
With all this rain, would it be possible to go home tonight?
Of course, this thought existed only in his mind and he dared not say it out loud.
Raindrops began to fall in the room. Manuel stopped in front of Angelica and closed the window, quietly.
“Keep eating, it should stop raining when you’re done.”
“okay.”
When the meal was over, the rain did not stop and the wind was blowing very hard.
The sudden rain and wind made it almost impossible to tell what was going on as they both received calls from their families.
Angelica picked up the phone and heard Fiona say.
“Girl, it’s raining so hard out here, how far away from home are you now?”
Angelica calculated that they seemed to have run quite far today-the dinner venue was about an hour’s drive from home.
One hour drive …
“If it’s too far, you shouldn’t go back, find a random hotel outside and make do for the night first.”
Angelica’s face turned red, “Mom!”
“What’s wrong? Mother didn’t want to say anything. Didn’t I tell you I was sure about Manuel? I trust him. Even if you stay outside, he will take two rooms, believe it or not.”
Angelica believed it. After all, Manuel, indeed, had moral qualities. But…
Thinking about it, Angelica turned her head to look at Manuel who was leaning against the window listening to the phone and whispered:
“Let’s see, maybe the rain will stop later.”
The rain continued for several hours; in addition to the wind, thunder and lightning began. After dinner, Manuel and Angelica remained in the cabin waiting. As a result, Angelica was already tired, sat on a chair and supported her chin with a sleepy look, completely drooping.
” Tired? Manuel’s voice resounded, from which Angelica came back to herself.
She sat up straighter, trying to look refreshed, and shook her head, “It’s okay , I was just a little sleepy, but I’m okay now.”
After that he patted his face and then stood up, “I’m going to wash my face.”
Manuel patted the chair next to her, “If you are sleepy, come here.”
“Manuel?”
“You can put your head on my shoulder to sleep.”
Angelica blinked, but finally did not refuse and went to sit in the chair next to Manuel, then leaned against his shoulder and closed her eyes, finally feeling more comfortable.
“Wait a little longer, it’s almost stopping.”

“He will.”
As Angelica leaned on Manuel’s shoulder as she spoke, a ringing sounded in her ears.
” Today is a very heavy downpour, so it will probably not be possible to take you home.”
Angelica remained silent.
There was silence in the compartment. Then Manuel’s voice rang out again:
“Do you have your ID card with you?”
Angelica: “No …”
The dress she wore today was not at all suitable for carrying anything, and apart from a cell phone, Angelica really had nothing with her.
“Confused.” Manuel sighed helplessly, “Good thing I brought him, I’ll check if there is a hotel nearby.”
After that he pulled out his phone and checked nearby directions and found a formal and hygienic five-star hotel near where he was eating.
It shouldn’t be too bad, Manuel thought.
Except, as far as regular hotels are concerned, you can only get one room per ID card.
Thinking about it, Manuel looked at Angelica’s head and said nothing. After some ‘time, the rain stopped, Angelica was surprised: – Manuel, the rain, indeed, ended. How did you guess?”
Manuel tightened his thin lips. In fact, he just said it himself. And the rain, in fact, stopped after a while. And it was not so difficult and unbearable for him to wait. He lightly tapped Angelica’s head.
“Guess what.
Angelica grabbed her head, huffed
And said nothing:
“Let’s go to the hotel.”
Due to the fact that their car was parked in the underground parking lot, there was water. Manuel thought he would not be able to leave so he decided not to go, got out with Angelica and decided to walk to the hotel. The water level under the building had already risen to the calves. Angelica was shod in high-heeled shoes, Looking at this sea of water, she paled in the face.
– Oh, how did the water get so high?
” This place is in the plains, so the water doesn’t go away.”
With that, Manuel leaned down in front of Angelica, “Come up.”
Angelica looked over his shoulder for a moment, thinking, without moving.
“What’s wrong?” Manuel waited a long time, but Angelica did not climb on him. He turned to look at her and saw her awkwardly reaching for her skirt, and after thinking a bit, he took off the jacket she was wearing and put it on her.
Manuel’s jacket was so long that it could have been danced on by Angelica.
So Angelica waved her sleeves in Manuel’s face with an astonished expression.
“Can you come up now?”
Angelica then nodded and prepared to climb on his back when Manuel suddenly noticed something out of the corner of his eye and blushed slightly, suddenly standing up and holding Angelica’s shoulders.
“Manuel, what happened?”
As soon as the words left her mouth, Angelica felt Manuel suddenly bend down in front of her, taking her directly by the waist.
The sudden embrace caught Angelica off guard.
She was so stunned that her mind did not react, but her body’s hands unconsciously went around Manuel’s neck to prevent him from falling.
After taking her in his arms, Manuel said in a low voice, “Pull up your skirt.”
“Ooooh.”
Angelica, as if stupid, looked at him. Immediately she reached out her hand, grabbed her skirt and only then realized something, turned and looked around. She saw several men standing aside, made eye contact with them and immediately looked back. Then she began to understand why Manuel had suddenly grabbed her. Even so, Angelica was a little uncomfortable, leaned against Manuel and said:
“Manuel, why don’t you … walk alone?
It shouldn’t be a problem to wear the hem of my skirt.”
“No.” Manuel, shook his head with a serious face, “The water is too dirty.”
She was a girl and had to be clean.
“But you will get so tired.
Manuel laughed, “You’re so skinny and you’re still so insecure about your weight? I used to pick you up when you were fat, let alone now.”
This is true.
Angelica blinked; after all, when she was fatter, her brother could still carry her, and he didn’t get tired even then.
Not to mention that she had now lost so much weight!
It was true that she could not be as insecure as before.
