Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 60

I looked up , and surprise ! _ –

Sara performed the surgery . _ _ I was n’t the only one in shock ; _ Sara was too . “ How is my friend ,

doctor ? ” I spoke before she could . _

“ She ‘s fine now . As long as she rests , she will heal , ” replied Sara , though still curious that I called h

er a doctor instead of Chief Tavares . _ _

“ Thank you , doctor ”, I said . “ Let ‘s get a ward for Joana , yes , Carlos ? ” I looked at him .

Sara took one look at Carlos and understood why I pretended not to know her . “ Yes , you should do it

now . Do you want her to stay in a normal ward or …

“ Of

course , it’s the best “ . Carlos responded quickly , but thought it sounded inappropriate with me here . “

What do you think , dear ? ”

“ Anything you say , honey . _ _ ” I smiled . “ How

much will it cost for the best ward here , Dr. Tavares ? ”

“ We have two suites left , which will cost fifteen thousand a day , ” replied the nurse .

“ Fifteen thousand ? Absurd ! ” exclaimed Mrs. _ _ Morals . She worried about Joana ‘s son , of course

, but she was more concerned about money . “ And I also paid for the surgery .”

I pretended not to hear her . “ Leave her in the suite , dear . _ The

child needs this . Finish the paperwork , hm ?

Carlos was shocked to learn the cost of

the suite . I knew he only meant those single rooms a few hundred a day when he said he wanted a bet

Mrs. _ _ Morais was unhappy after I asked Carlos to review the paperwork . _ “ Why are n’t you doing t

his alone , Linda ? _ ”

“ Yes , why not , Linda ? _ Pamela chimed in . _ _

“ I have to stay with Joana . She needs me more than ever right now . _ Besides , Carlos is my husban

d . _ He’s the same . if he goes anyway ” . _ Mrs. _ _ Morais and Pamela could not refute this , since _I

was Joana ‘s friend , at least . in public , whereas they were irrelevant in this context .

Carlos hesitated , but went to fill out the paperwork anyway . At

the same time , the rest of his family and I sent Joana to the infirmary .

When we arrived , Mrs. _ Morais ‘ jaw dropped . _ “ This is not an infirmary . ” She looked around at the

glittering room . _ “ It ‘s more luxurious than our house ” .

“ This is a special wing for you , tailor- made for the rich , ” joked Pamela .

“ This is going to be costly . ” Mrs. _ _ Morais must be upset right

now . “ To be honest , Joana is your friend Linda . _ ” She looked at me . “ You ca n’t expect Carlos to p Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

ay for this . I ‘m not giving in onit “.

In other words , she wanted me to pay . That damn old bitch . The divorce had n’t happened yet , and s

he was already cutting ties . “ Do n’t worry , mother . Joan will pay . ” Then I noticed Joana ‘s eyelid twit

ching. I knew . That bitch is just pretending to be sleeping
