“ Husband , do n’t accuse Joana of lying ! ” Letting out a sigh , I said as I
put an anguished look on my face . “ It’s not her fault .”
“ What do you mean it ‘s not her fault ? _ Whose fault is it then ? _ Carlos asked . _ “ Did someone forc
e you to blackmail others ? ”
“ Bingo ! You guessed it right ! Someone forced her . ”
Joana , that bitch , did n’t she warn me not to tell anyone ? Well , I could not leave Carlos uninformed .
Also , I hoped to make them both feel disgusted with each other . _ _ _
“ What ?! _ ” Carlos was speechless .
“ Calm down and listen to what I have to say . _ Just now , I went to console Joana while she was
crying a
lot . She confessed that it was Mom who made her do it . ” I told Carlos the whole conversation betwee
n me and Joana .
Upon hearing this , Carlos ‘ first reaction was denial . _ _ “ This is absurd ! _ My mother is the
one who hired Vitória . Why would Mom plot against her ?
His reaction was exactly what I expected . _ Being a typical mama ‘s boy , Carlos would never say anyt
hing bad about his mother . However , I wanted him to know that Joana was
the one who told me this , so that he would know what kind
ofof person she was . So I deliberately said , “ I did n’t believe it either . There is
no reason for Joana to treat Vitória that way ,
right ?
“ Anyway , I do n’t believe Mom would force you to do this . Joana must have felt humiliated for being e
xposed at the time , so she was trying to find someone else to take the blame . _ ” In his heart , Carlos
alreadypointed the finger at Joana . As always , family was Carlos ‘ number one priority . _ _
“ I don’t believe that either . At first , I wanted to
confront Mom and Victoria about it , but Joana stopped me . She warned me not to tell anyone , but yo
u are my husband . _ You are one of the closest people to me in this world ., so
I just ca n’t hide it from you .”
“ Honey , you did the right thing . We
are one as husband and wife , so there should be no secrets between us . ” With that , Carlos seemed
very pleased with my words .
“ Husband , I , for one , don’t keep any secrets from you . Hope you do the same ! _ ” Meowing like a ki
tten , I acted all coquettish in front of him . Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“ Of
course ! Darling , you are the most important person to me . Why would I keep any secrets from you ?
said Carlos in an attempt at flattery , but then abruptly changed the subject . “ This reminds me . Honey
, about what _it was shared between us , do not tell Joana . Before that , I had a good impression of
her , but after today ‘s incident , I have my doubts about her . ” I guessed he was trying to check my atti
tude towards Joana . _
With a sigh , I said , “ Husband , Joan ‘s other half recently passed away , so I can understand if she ‘s
feeling upset . _ _ Regarding today ‘s incident , regardless of Joana ‘s intention , we
will not delve into it .. I don’t think she ‘s going to insist on asking Vitória to pay . She was just trying to
vent her emotions , so it would be great if you did n’t see her differently , right ?
Hearing me speak on behalf of Joana , Carlos was so moved . _ “ Darling , you are really the kindest a
nd most beautiful person in
this world ! “ What a shameless scoundrel ! Doesn’t he feel disgusted by what he
said ? Well two can play this onegame . “ Husband , you are the kindest and most charming man in
this world ! ”
During dinner , Joana said she did n’t feel well and asked
for permission not to have dinner . I knew very well that she was banking on
the child in her womb . Upon learning that Joana was not feeling well , Carlos did not react or say a
word .word . This despicable man was simply a remarkable actor .
On the other hand , my mother-in-
law looked deeply worried as she could n’t hide the expression on her face . “ Joana is pregnant , so sh
e needs to eat . What should we do ? ”
