Even wanting his love , Joana could n’t expose herself now . _ Being the false friend that she was , she
thanked Carlos , curbing her desire for him.
“ You ‘re Linda ‘s friend , which makes you my friend . _ Friends help each
other , don’t they ? ” That scoundrel even used me as an excuse to cover up .
The whole family thought I was an idiot , but I knew exactly what I was doing . _ “ School is almost over
for the day . _ ” I looked at the time . “ I’m going to need to pick up Bianca “ .
Maybe he felt guilty , or maybe he was worried that I might find out something , so Carlos got up . “ I ‘ll
go with you , dear ” .

wo n’t happen today . I scoffed softly . I did n’t refuse the offer and went
out with him after reminding Victoria about some precautions to take .
We bumped into Henriques in the hallway as soon as we
left . He was in a wheelchair now , while Gustavo was pushing him from behind . _ Me leaving with Carl

“ My leg is hurt . Henriques looked distant , obviously wanting nothing to do with him . _ _ _
“ Oh , how did you get hurt then ? ” Carlos was still eager to please him . _
” Someone bumped into me “. Henriques remained indifferent , but then he looked at me . Hey , that wa

Carlos was acting weird today . If it had been at another time , he would

my questions , I did n’t realize he was holding my hand .
When we got to his car , he opened the door for me and put my seat belt on . Did he think that was tou

We left the hospital a moment later and I
noticed that he didn’t look very happy . Was it because of Joan ? Or because of the fees ? I thought ab

was later .we found Henriques . _ So was Henriques ‘ indifference the cause ? _
As Carlos was egocentric , it was normal for him to
get irritated when Henriques ignored him after the almost fawning greeting . “ You seem to
be upset , dear . ” I laughed softly . “ Is it because of the state of Joana ? ”
