Sir, Madame Has Run Away Again Chapter 28
Chapter 28
“ I suggested it, but she refused to go . She insists she ‘ll be fine after she gets some rest . In the past , she also had headaches and was fine after resting for some time without going to the doctor ” .
“ Oh , is it a chronic disease ?” Joana feigned an expression of sudden understanding . As she said those words , her cell phone rang and she answered it right in front of me . “ Are you sick ? What ‘s wrong ? _ Got it . I’ll be there right away! After hanging up the phone , she blurted out anxiously , “ Linda , my brother has n’t been feeling well these days and now he has a high fever . I have to go see him right away ” .
Undeniably , her acting skills were excellent , her concern and anxiety for her brother was presented so realistically . _ _ If I didn’t know what kind of person she was, I definitely would have been mistaken . “ Oh , is he sick ? Nopanic , I ‘ll accompany you to the hospital . _ I got up pretending .
“ No need , I ‘ll manage on my own ” , Joana instinctively said in refusal .
“ But you are pregnant . I will worry if you go alone . I faked a worried expression .
“ It’s all right , really! Your mother – in – law is still in bed , so you can not go out right now . I can manage on my own .”
I hesitated for a moment before saying , “ I ‘ll still worry if you ‘re alone . Why do n’t I ask Carlos to take her ? _
“ No ! ” Joana refused outright . “ I’ll take a taxi ” .
“ Be careful , then .” I kept the act and accompanied her to the elevator . It was n’t until I saw her step into the elevator that I turned around and headed back home .
However , not long after I said goodbye to her , Carlos left the office . “ Honey , something happened at work so I have to go and deal with it ” . _
Joana had just left and something came up at work ? _ _ Even a fool could tell something was wrong ! _ Naturally , I did not expose it . “ Husband , what happened ? _ ”
“ There is a problem with a project , so I have to go there and have a look . Maybe I wo n’t come home tonight . _ And I’m not even sure I ‘ll make it to the house tomorrow …” Carlos watched my expression warily .
“ Since it’s a matter of work , you should go and take care of it . ”
“ Then I ‘m leaving , honey . Carlos then left with his briefcase , reluctance etched on his face . _ _
Seeing that he had left , my father-in-law got up and went back to his room . Obviously I have no hope of getting a set of jewelry right now , so he probably went back to his room to tell his wife about it . I mockedinwardly . So I quickly walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge , only to see it was full of food . When Victoria saw me opening the fridge , she immediately came over to me . “ I just bought all of these . ”
I closed the fridge door . “ Victoria , I’m sure you have n’t had time to go back and visit your son since you came to work here , have you ? ”
“ No , but my son has his father and grandparents to take care of him , so I don’t have to worry about him ” , Victoria replied with a smile .
“ While that may be true , you ca n’t just leave your child without going back to see him . If you do that , you will become distant from him . What if … Tomorrow is Saturday , so we’re not going to work . I ‘ll give you the day off to _for you to come back and visit your son , as well as be reunited with your family .
Victoria was extremely surprised , as she had n’t expected me to give her the day off . “ But who ‘s going to cook for everyone if I ‘m not here ? ”
