He was n’t worried about the problems his company was facing , but someone had sent a set of picture
s of him and Joana having an affair in his mailbox to blackmail him . _ _ _
Carlos paid the other party some bribe , but he was still worried that I would find
out and wanted to send Joan away .
After talking to me a little longer , Carlos looked at his watch and got up . “ It’s getting late . I ‘ll go back
and help Bianca pack . ” _
I naturally did n’t want him to stay in the ward another minute , so I insisted he leave . _
After Carlos left , I called Isabel and told the cell about Carlos ‘ strange behavior . _ _ She was a little c
onfused . ” It stands to reason that Carlos should n’t be so concerned about a contract . “
“ Yes , I also find it strange . While a $ 100 million contract sounds daunting , it is all too common to
find flaws in the business arena . It’s not the first time that Carlos has
suffered a failure , so he should n’t act that way for this one .reason . ”
“ Are there other things that we do n’t know are bothering you ? Or perhaps he feels that Joan ‘s existe
nce is a threat and wants to deliberately send her
away to probe his thoughts of her ? Isabel conjectured for a moment . _
“ That ‘s possible . But I don’t think Joana will leave like
that . Her goal is to replace me instead of just being a _
lover . ”
“ If it was Carlos ‘ intention , Joana would definitely not be so submissive . She would definitely manage
to stay , agreed Isabel . _ “ There , right . She already knows the news of your pregnancy . As you gue
ssed , that bitch canreally hide your thoughts . She didn’t show any emotion . I
think right now she ‘s trying to think of a way to deal with you .”
“ I’ve already made my preparations . I’m just worried that she won’t make her move . ” I scoffed .
I didn’t believe that Joana would be able to stay calm . If Carlos really meant
to send her away , she would come to me first and try to find a way to stay .
Sure enough , as I thought , Joana really came to see me in my room that night . When she walked
in , she had a look of extreme concern on her face . “ Linda , why did n’t you tell me when you were in
the hospital ? ”
“ Carlos did n’t want me to tell you . He said you ‘re pregnant and he was afraid that telling
you would make you worried . “ I put the blame on Carlos .
“ And did you hear him ? We are best friends . I was concerned when Mrs. _ Morais treated you like
that . You have no idea how excited I was . _ ” Joana ‘s hypocritical concern disgusted me . _ _ “ Beauti
ful , does your waist still hurt ?”
“ I feel so much better . Honestly , there was no need for me to go into the hospital . I wanted to
go back to recover , but Carlos disagreed and insisted that I be hospitalized for observation ” . I mentio
ned this deliberately to annoy her .
“ Carlos treats you so well , ” said Joana bitterly .
“ Yes , he always treated me well . He ‘s kind and thoughtful , and he’s always thinking about
the future for me . ” I put a happy and contented look on my face . I wanted to piss this bitch off .
“ You ‘re right . Carlos is like a helicopter husband . I ‘m so jealous of you , Linda . Giving me a pained
smile , she rubbed her stomach with her hand and sighed . _ _
I knew this bitch was coming at me today not to make small talk with
me , so I looked at her with concern . “ Joana , how are you recovering now ? _ ”
“ I am almost fully recovered . I am preparing to
be discharged in two days . ” Joana referred to being discharged . _ _ “ Linda , I will not live in your hou All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
se after I am discharged from the hospital ”
“ Why would you want to move when you ‘re living perfectly there ? ” I asked with a look of surprise .
