Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 23

“ It’s a secret . Either way , you won’t be disappointed , ” I replied perfunctorily . Want a birthday presen

t from me ? Keep dreaming !

“ Linda , are you planning to get me the Cartier watch I like ? ”

This shameless girl dares to say anything ! _ Ever since Pamela saw a classmate from a wealthy family

wearing a Cartier watch that cost a few hundred thousand at school , she was constantly pestering m

When Joana saw what Pâmela wanted , she immediately reinforced : “ Linda has always treated you lik

e a sister and never refused you anything , right , Pamela ? _ ”

“ Yes ! Linda always treated me like I was her biological sister . _ Linda , why do n’t you get me my birth

day present early like Joana did ? _ _ _ ”

As these two bitches echoed off each other , a moment of clarity hit me . They must have conspired to t

rap me and coerce me into promising her such an exorbitant gift . However , they now miscalculated . _

_ “ A gift frombirthday has to be given on

the exact day to be meaningful . It loses meaning if given in advance , ” I replied with a bright smile .

“ I

agree . And how can you so blatantly ask someone for a birthday present ? _ _ _ Carlos frowned too .

_ _

Seeing that I did n’t agree with that , disgust flooded Pamela ‘s face , and she stretched her lower lip .

_ _ However , I acted as if she

didn’t notice my displeasure with her , shifting my gaze to Joana ‘s wrist in mock astonishment .. “ Joan

a , the bracelet you are wearing is stunning . _ Did you just buy it recently ? _ ”

As soon as my words were spoken , a distinct sign of unease crossed Carlos ‘ face . _ _ Not expecting

me to suddenly notice the bracelet on her hand , Joana was also stunned for a moment before replying

: “ Yes ” . _

“ Looks like Cartier , right ? _ ” I asked further .

Pamela , who was pouting , immediately glanced at Joana ‘s wrist at the word Cartier , suspicion writte

n all over her face . _ _ _ _ _ “ Is it Cartier ? ”

“ What is Cartier ? _ ” my mother-in-law joined the conversation .

“ Cartier is a luxury brand whose products cost an arm and

a leg ” , explained Pâmela . Then she looked at Joana . _ “ Why would you have a Cartier bracelet ? ”

The implication , of

course , was this : how could you buy something from Cartier ? Joana was like a deer caught in

the headlights . Since she could n’t deny that it was from Cartier , she could only stutter : “ It was … it

was a gift ” .

“ This bracelet must have been a gift from your boyfriend when he was alive . I never knew he was so n

ice to you ! _ ” I carefully expounded on your behalf His .

“ How did you know it was a gift from her boyfriend ? ” Pamela ‘s and my mother – in-

law’s gazes flew to Carlos before instantly looking away in the next instance .

“ Who else would give her such an expensive gift besides her boyfriend ?”

“ How expensive is it ? ” Pamela and my mother-in-law asked in unison .

“ I ‘m not sure , so you’ll have to ask Joana that ” , I replied . Then I added : “ Cartier products usually n

umber a few hundred thousand , while special orders probably number a few million ” . _ _

“ A few million ? ” My mother-in-law took a deep breath .

Although Carlos was now wealthy , he was never as generous to his parents . Also , she is a greedy pe

rson , so if she finds out that her son is so generous to Joana , she will surely hate her to the bone !
