Chapter 128
Standing there calmly, Henriques was staring at us. “This place is monitored by surveillance
cameras. Mrs. Morais, President Morais attacked me first. I was only acting in self-defense.”
“Was it really self-defense? Look how you spanked my husband. Ribeiro, you idiot! I will make you pay
for what you did!”
“Why is a woman defending you? President Morais, is being a coward what you do best?”
“We are husband and wife, so we are one. The sound of that sentence disgusted me.
“Don’t you think that sounds a little cheesy?” I couldn’t believe that Henriques knew what I was
thinking.
Carlos wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up. “Ribeiro, settle this with me. Don’t
you dare disturb my
woman.”
“Carlos, we don’t need to argue with such an unreasonable person. I’m sure the law is on our
side. Let’s examine your wound.”
“Are you trying to sue me? I’ll be waiting.” The indifference on Henriques’ face stirred me. How the hell
could such an arrogant person exist? It was clear that Henriques never respected Carlos.
The weaker party never had the right to speak under the stronger party. Although Carlos was a
pretentious person, he was nothing compared to Henriques. At that point, I glared at Henriques
angrily. “Why are you bullying the weak? Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?”
“Speaking of which, I don’t think I could ever live up to President Morais.” Henriques approached
Carlos who was still bleeding from the mouth as he spoke, giving the man a jolt as he took a large step
backwards. However, Henriques did nothing to him, but looked him in the eye callously as he said:
“President Morais, please remember this; the truth dissolves in time. You still owe me an explanation
for what happened five years ago.

By the time Henriques finished his sentence, there was an expression of terror on Carlos’
face. However, I turned to Henriques in total confusion. What does that mean? Did he have a beef with
Carlos before that? How could I not know about this?
Then Henriques clapped his hands with a pose before leaving. Later, I helped Carlos into the
elevator. Truth be told, I didn’t have any sympathy for Carlos; I was kind of happy that he got beat up by
Henriques. But now was not the right time for that. I needed to at least show some kind of anger after NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
my husband. he was beaten by someone else. As such, I looked Carlos in the eye with pity. “Carlos,
your mouth is still bleeding. Let me get you a bandage.”
“I am fine. It’s just a few punches. I’m not that weak.” As Carlos smiled at me, he pulled on the wound,
which caused him a lot of pain.
“Look at yourself and how much pain you are in. By the way, we need to take some pictures as proof
before calling the police. We can’t let Ribeiro do this to us.”
“Linda, it’s okay. That’s no big deal, so there’s no need to involve the police. Carlos rejected my
proposal.
“Are we going to let Ribeiro go like this?” I pretended to look angry. “Ribeiro is not a good guy.”
“Linda, you heard what he said. I did it first, so calling the police won’t help me at all. There is no need
for us to go through this hassle.”
Without being bandaged, Carlos came home with me. My father-in-law was startled to see Carlos’
bruised face when we walked in the door “What happened?”
