She must have been too bored to scroll
through the phone and comment so quickly . I could imagine how livid she was looking
at the photos . ‘ Yes , I replied .
A few minutes later , Carlos ‘ phone rang . This time , he did n’t end the call , but instead , he left . _ It
didn’t take long for him to come back , but I could
see the anger in his eyes despite the smile on his face .Obviously , Joana must have fought with him .
I scoffed softly . A double life ai n’t easy , huh , you scum ?
Thanks to Joana ‘s intervention , Carlos ‘ mood was damaged throughout dinner . _ _ _ He was silent o
n the way back and just growled whenever I tried to strike up a conversation . He was human , after
all . His double success before that was notbecause he was smart , but because I trusted him enough f
or him to abuse it .
Now that I was pressing him from the shadows , it became a thorn in his side . Since he could n’t stop
me from posting those pictures , he would have to try
to calm Joana down now . Obviously he was trying to find a way todo this .
I knew that Joana must be in a panic right now , while Carlos
was explaining himself to her . He had a sharp tongue , so if he went to the hospital , it would
be easy for him to calm her down . So my job now was to keep an eye outon
him and prevent him from going to the hospital .
It would be hard to
keep an eye on someone who didn’t care about you . I was sure he would find an excuse to leave , but
I had a way to counteract it – let him taste his own medicine . _ _ He drugged me before,
was n’t it ? Two can play this game . Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
To keep him busy , I continued talking to him after returning home . _ _ It was the first time I had
shown such intimacy for so long in our marriage . Bianca was intrigued and came to
play . She asked Carlos to draw with her _and , a moment later , wanted him to throw some toy blocks .
_
At the same time , I poured us three glasses of juice . I handed one to Bianca , one to him ,
and took one for myself . Carlos was thirsty after spending so much time with Bianca , so he drank the
entire glass in one go . _. When the last drop of the enriched juice was gone , I
thought to myself , Plan executed .
Carlos yawned a little later , and I said to Bianca , “ Honey , Dad worked hard all day , so can you play
by yourself and let him get some rest ? _ ”
Bianca nodded . “ Okay , mommy .”
Carlos said quickly : “ You should rest too , honey . You too have
been working hard . Here , let me take you to the bedroom . _ _ !
Dutifully , I went into the bedroom with him , even though I knew he planned to leave after I fell
asleep . After he tucked me into bed and asked me to sleep , I reflexively tugged at him .
