Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 22



Chapter 22

Meanwhile , I continued feigning ignorance as I

consoled her for a while before leaving her . I opened the door and saw Joana and my mother-in –

law outside . The two looked at me nervously , as if they feared that Pamela had let something slip that

she shouldn’t have..

With an air of guilt , Joana began to probe me asking : “ Linda , is Pamela still mad ? ”

When I noticed the good facade that Joana managed to put

on , I pushed away the nausea inside me before answering : “ It ‘s okay . Pamela is just having a tantr

um , so she ‘ll be fine soon . “

Joana, on the other hand , was still in acting mode . “ It’s all my fault , for bringing all these problems on

you … If it were n’t for my pregnancy … ”

“ It’s not your fault . You never wanted all this either .

“ Yes … If the child ‘s father were still alive , I wouldn’t be alone . She seemed to be really enjoying her

acting as she started alluding to her non-existent boyfriend again .

“ Joana , have you noticed that you’ve changed a

lot since your pregnancy ? If you asked me , I think you should abort this child . Keeping the baby will o

nly bring you more problems ! _ _

“ Okay , enough is enough . ” Abortion was a taboo subject for my mother-in- law ; it

was as if Joana would lose the child she was carrying as

soon as I mentioned it . So she interrupted our conversation and said, “ Linda , you should go rest .a litt

le bit after a day at work . You too , Joan . Do n’t forget you ‘re pregnant ” . _

“ I’ll check on Bianca . ” I thanked my mother- in – law before running to Bianca ‘s room . ,

I assumed that Pamela ‘s hostility towards Joana would last for some time , but I got home the followin

g afternoon and saw the two talking like best friends . As I looked at Pâmela , I

noticed that she had a new bracelet on her wrist , which made memade Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

a mental mockery when realizing that Joana managed to win her over using that .

An idea came to mind when I saw the bracelet on Pâmela ‘s wrist . I sat down opposite the two while as

king : “ The bracelet you have there is beautiful , Pamela ! _ When did you buy this ? ”

“ Do you think so too ? Joana gave it to me as a gift ” , said Pâmela with great pride .

“ It must have cost a fortune , right , Joana ? ” I said as I turned to look at her .

“ It’s not that expensive .” The smile that Joana had seemed quite forced , as things were going awry fo

r her . _

Although Pâmela had risen socially since she came to live in the city with Carlos , in reality she

did n’t have good taste , nor did she know how to

appreciate the beauty of things . The only reason she wanted to buy things was to show them off , so _

_most of what she owned was chosen on the basis of brand and price .

To win over Pâmela , Joana would need

to buy her something expensive , but with her current financial situation , buying a bracelet like

that would be a heavy burden for her . Meanwhile , Carlos and my mother – in-law grew closer as we

talked . knowing full wellJoana ‘s financial situation , Carlos frowned when he looked at Pâmela . _ _ “ Y

ou ‘re an adult now , so why do you keep asking people for things ? ”

“ I didn’t ask for this ! Joana insisted that she wanted to give it to me as a gift ! ” Pamela retorted .

Upon hearing this , Joana quickly added : “ I decided to give you a present , because it will

be your birthday soon ” .

I almost laughed out

loud because I knew that Pamela ‘s birthday was in a few months . That bitch sure did n’t know how to

lie .

“ Linda , what are you going to buy me for my birthday ? _ ” As

soon as Pamela took over the conversation , she shifted everyone ‘s focus to me .
