Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 76

Carlos ‘ mood was up all the way home . _ _ _ _ _ “ Now that you ‘re pregnant , you

should quit your job , honey . Just stay at home . I will work hard for you and the boy .”

“ I ca n’t ” , I replied .

“ Why not ? _ Are you worried that I ca n’t support you two ? ”

“ Of course not . I know you are a capable man . _ ” I gloried

him . “ But I signed a contract with my company . _ There ‘s a breach of contract clause when we sign it

, as they ‘re worried I might _jump ship or resign . _ _ If I don’t work until the end of the contract , I

have to pay a huge amount of money as compensation . ”

I mentioned the compensation just to see if he would

back off , but to my surprise , he did n’t care . “ Do n’t worry , I ‘m here . I

will resolve the claim issue for you . ”

sighed softly . If I could choose again , I would n’t have chosen to marry someone without careful consi

deration , let alone a man like him . _ _ I was by your side in

the best years of my life. I gave him all my love , but what I got in return was coldness , lies and betraya

l . _ _

I was relieved I was n’t pregnant when I found out

about her cheating . In a way , I had dope to thank . If it were n’t for her , I could have

gotten pregnant . If that had happened , I would not have walked out of

this relationship . so easily .I would have tried to save this marriage for the

child , even if it meant I had to degrade myself . Now ? I was grateful to have my dignity and grateful to

still be myself . _ I’m going to make you pay for what you did to me , Carlos .

Carlos took me to the bedroom and asked me to sleep after arriving home . _ _ I was n’t in the

mood for it , but I went along with it .

He snuggled me gently . “ What do you want for dinner , honey ? _ I will cook ”.

“ It ‘s okay , honey . Let Victoria do it , ” I replied .

“ Of

course . She ‘s a better cook than I am anyway . _ Tell me what you want , and I ‘ll send you out for so

me grocery shopping . _ _ _ ”

“ I do n’t feel like eating anything but sour stuff , ” I replied . As Joana was pregnant with a boy , I wante

d Carlos to think that I was too . _ Rumor had it that women pregnant with boys loved sour things ,while

girls loved spicy food . _ _ I chose the first one to fit your experience . That would make

it easier for him to take this the wrong way .

Sure enough , he smiled the moment I said it . _ _ ” I bet you ‘re pregnant with a boy , honey ” .

“ And how do you know that ? ”

“ The elderly in my city determine the sex of the child based on the mother ‘s diet . Most mothers- to –

be pregnant with boys loved sour food . ”

“ This is unscientific . _ You ca n’t trust that . ” I shook my head .

“ It’s not , but most of the time it ‘s accurate . Yeah , Joana prefers sour food since she got

pregnant too , and it is

boy . ”

Carlos even used Joana as an example to convince me , but without knowing it , he let crucial informati

on slip . If he and Joana were just normal friends , why would he care so much about her diet ? _ “ She

likes sour things _too ? Why did n’t I know this ? ” I asked .
