Chapter 997: Pair up with me, just in time.
Nico stood at the window, looking out at Hop. The girl fishing by the pond under the happy tree.
Florencia, annoyed, grabbed the hem of her skirt and squeezed her fingers tighter and tighter.
Camila Linares saw the opportunity and said, “Mr. Nico is staying for dinner tonight, Mr. Nico is visiting for the first time and would like to try my cooking.”
Nico replied, “Hmm.”
Is that a yes?
Camila Linares said, “Mr. Nico, you and Florencia are going to play while I cook, I haven’t cooked in a long time and I don’t know if I’m rusty, what does Mr. Nico want to eat?”
“Fish.” Nico blurts out a word, rather lightly.
Camila Linares asks, “boiled or steamed?”
Nico stared at the girl fishing by the pond and did not respond to Camila Linares’ words.
Beltran Matamoros gestures with his eyes to Camila Linares, go cook.
Not long after, the girl by the pond, caught another fish.
Very capable.
Seeing Nico’s silence, Florencia went to the window, leaned her chin on the edge and said, “Mr. Nico, I am going to take my entrance exams soon and I don’t know which university I am going to, can Mr. Nico choose for me?”.
Nico said, “Pick something like a college, go to your parents, turn around and I will pick the wrong one for Miss Florence, who blames me.”
“Well yes, I trust Mr. Nico’s vision.”
Without thinking, Nico threw out the name of the school, “Complutense. ”
“…”
Florencia got so angry she was about to spit blood, but because of her partner’s wealth, she bit her lip and said, “Mr. Nico, do you misremember that Complutense is learning to cook?”
“What’s wrong with learning to cook, it’s not like learning to cook is inferior.”
Florence was silent, unable to figure out if Nico was pulling her leg or if he was serious.
Complutense … is really humiliating.
Florencia asked, “What university did Mr. Nico graduate from?”
Nico was somber about this match bore, “I don’t study, I dropped out of high school because of the fights and brawls.”
He really isn’t her ideal type.
Florence thought she had hit the nail on the head with Nico and encouraged him: “Someone from a family like Mr. Nico’s would have been able to take his family’s business to the bottom even if he had dropped out of school. I don’t know how much Mr. Nico is envied by students graduating from prestigious universities. ”
Nico snorted a laugh, but it wasn’t loud.
The girl fishing by the pond, her rod fully reeled in, came out from under the acacia tree carrying a small white bucket.
She reached up and took off the little straw hat she wore on her head, her long hair, like ink, spilled instantly, her features were delicate and clear, her eyebrows were cold and arrogant, she was young and still had a youthful appearance, but a beauty.
In two or three years, her appearance will be even more impressive than the top-notch young flowers in the entertainment industry.
The Matamoros family also has such a beautiful girl.
Nico was unexpected.
Micaela Matamoros enters with a bucket of fish.
Florencia walks up and smells the smell of fresh live fish and makes a disgusted face, “It’s fish, take it out. Can’t you see that Mr. Nico is in there?”.
Micaela Matamoros looks up and sees the man standing by the window, a robust figure of great beauty.
Beltran Matamoros instructed his eldest daughter, saying, “Micaela, this is Mr. Nico, an honored guest of our family, call someone.”
Micaela Matamoros looked directly at Nico without condescension and sounded stiff: “Mr. Nico bueno.”
Beltran Matamoros said, “Just in time, you are both here, Mr. Nico just had this cup of coffee, the preparation is not good, you both have recently gone to study coffee ceremony and flower arranging, come and have a competition, my father and Mr. Nico, just to check your extracurricular work.”
Micaela Matamoros tugged at the corners of her lips, learning coffee ceremony and flower arranging….
Which of her father’s eyes saw her go to study? She went to study coffee ceremony and flower arranging and her tuition was withheld by Camila Linares.
Florencia, on the other hand, has been studying for a year, I think.
Florencia’s lips curled up in a little giggle and she said, “Yes, Papa. Sister, let’s make coffee together. ”
Micaela Matamoros has never studied, so she is no match for her.
Mr. Nico will definitely look at her with different eyes.
With this in mind, Florencia was even happier when she saw that Micaela Matamoros was silent and provoked her with the words, “Are you afraid to compete with me, sister?”
Micaela Matamoros, with a toss of her hair and a black rubber band on her wrist, nonchalantly tied her long hair into a ponytail, her eyes full of arrogance, saying, “Just compare, isn’t Papa going to check our homework?”
Florence got her way, with a provocative look in her eyes.
Coffee is prepared according to the coffee ceremony, and the difference between good and bad preparation is obvious to those who know how to drink it at the first sip.
Nico observes this smokeless, mirrorless war from across the water, the people of La familia Matamoros, quite interesting.
A hunch told him there would be a good show.
Three minutes later, two cups of clear coffee were placed in front of Nico and Beltran Matamoros.
One cup was brewed by Florencia and one by Micaela Matamoros.
The Florencia is a little darker and the Micaela Matamoros is a little lighter in soup color.
Preference, depending on personal taste.
The coffee elaborated by Florencia is a little more aromatic.
The coffee brewed by Micaela Matamoros is a refreshing taste for Nico.
Beltran Matamoros smiles and asks, “Which coffee seems a little better to Mr. Nico?”.
Nico said, “I don’t know how coffee is made, this one is stronger and naturally has a stronger aroma, but me, the doctor said I’m not well to drink strong coffee these days, so I prefer to drink this clear soup.”
At the end of the flirtatious conversation, Nico took the cup of clear coffee that Micaela Matamoros had prepared for him, drained it and commented, “It’s good, a little tender, but it’s not astringent in the mouth.”
I don’t know if I am commenting on the coffee water or what, high-flown.
Florencia asked with concern, “What about Mr. Nico’s health?”.
Nico hooked his lips and smiled coquettishly, “It’s not a big kidney.”
Florencia blushed and hastily bowed her head.
Micaela Matamoros mentally cursed the rascal.
Nico had dinner at La familia Matamoros.
After dinner, Camila Linares instructed Florencia to go escort Nico around the patio.
The patio at La familia Matamoros is not as big as the one at Grupo Amengual, but it is full of flowers and plants and has a lovely atmosphere on summer evenings.

Florencia likes Nico.
She felt it as soon as she entered the house.
But no wonder, the Amengual Group is a famous family in La Ciudad Santa and Nico is as handsome as they are.
Soon after, Florencia was fired by Nico.
With her hands behind her back, Micaela Matamoros approached her and asked bluntly, “Does Mr. Nico like my sister?”.
Nico raised an eyebrow, “What?”.
“If Mr. Nico doesn’t like my sister, don’t give him hope, because if not, my sister is going to stick to you like a blanket and you won’t be able to get her off your back.” Said Micaela Matamoros, half joking but serious.
Nico laughed mischievously, “And you, do you have a cow face too?”.
“I ah…” Micaela Matamoros mumbled with her hands behind her back, twirling around, “Mr. Nico asks that, does Mr. Nico have his eye on me?”
Heh, sis, big mouth.
Nico scoffs, “Don’t you feel guilty for meddling with your own sister?”.
Micaela Matamoros has a weak heart? Joke.
“It’s not like she and I were born of the same mother. Besides, Mr. Nico can’t see Florence’s.”
Nico looked at her playfully, “He’s not too old, but he’s pretty mouthy.”
Micaela Matamoros’ light and dark eyes looked straight at Nico with a serious glint, “Mr. Nico see how I am.”
“Rumor has it that Missy The Matamoros family is uneducated and naughty, I don’t see how.”
Micaela Matamoros: “What a coincidence, I heard that Mr. Nico has a reputation for stealing from people and being idle, so it fits me like a glove.”
Nico: …
