Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 28

“ I suggested it, but she refused to go . She insists she ‘ll

be fine after she gets some rest . In the past , she also had headaches and was fine after resting for so

me time without going to the doctor ” .

“ Oh , is it a

chronic disease ?” Joana feigned an expression of sudden understanding . As she said those

words , her cell phone rang and she answered it right in front of me . “ Are

you sick ? What ‘s wrong ? _ Got it . I’ll be there right

away! After hanging up the phone , she blurted out anxiously , “ Linda , my brother has n’t been feeling

well these days and now he has a high fever . I have to go see him right away ” .

Undeniably , her acting skills were excellent , her concern and anxiety for her brother was presented so

realistically . _ _ If I didn’t know what kind of person she was, I definitely would

have been mistaken . “ Oh , is he sick ? Nopanic , I ‘ll accompany you to the hospital . _ I got up preten

ding .

“ No need , I ‘ll manage on my own ” , Joana instinctively said in refusal .

“ But you are pregnant . I will worry if you go alone . I faked a worried expression .

“ It’s all right , really! Your mother – in – law is still in bed , so you can not go

out right now . I can manage on my own .”

I hesitated for a moment before saying , “ I ‘ll still worry if you ‘re alone . Why do n’t I ask Carlos to take

her ? _

“ No ! ” Joana refused outright . “ I’ll take a taxi ” .

“ Be careful , then .” I kept the act and accompanied her to the elevator . It was n’t until I saw her step

into the elevator that I turned around and headed back home .

However , not long after I

said goodbye to her , Carlos left the office . “ Honey , something happened at work so I have to go and

deal with it ” . _

Joana had just left and something came up at work ? _ _ Even a fool could tell something was wrong !

_ Naturally , I did not expose it . “ Husband , what happened ? _ ”

“ There

is a problem with a project , so I have to go there and have a look . Maybe I wo n’t come home tonight .

_ And I’m not even sure I ‘ll make it to the house tomorrow …” Carlos watched my expression warily .

“ Since it’s a matter of work , you should go and take care of it . ”

“ Then I ‘m leaving , honey . Carlos then left with his briefcase , reluctance etched on his face . _ _

Seeing that he had left , my father-in-law got

up and went back to his room . Obviously I have no hope of getting a set of jewelry right now , so he pr

obably went back to his room to tell his wife about it . I mockedinwardly . So I quickly walked into

the kitchen and opened the fridge , only to see it was full of food . When Victoria saw me opening the

fridge , she immediately came over to me . “ I just bought all of these . ”

I closed the fridge door . “ Victoria , I’m sure you have n’t had time to go back and visit

your son since you came to work here , have you ? ”

“ No , but my son has his father and grandparents to take care of him , so

I don’t have to worry about him ” , Victoria replied with a smile .

“ While that may be true , you ca n’t just leave your child without going back to see him . If you do that ,

you will become distant from him . What if … Tomorrow is Saturday , so we’re not going to

work . I ‘ll give you the day off to _for you to come back and visit your son , as

well as be reunited with your family .

Victoria was extremely surprised , as she had n’t expected me to give her the day off . “ But who ‘s

going to cook for everyone if I ‘m not here ? ”
