Chapter 117
Or was it because Carlos made him another promise ? Was that why she was so relaxed ? _ Tonight , I did not sleep well . When morning came , the nurse who was taking care of me came . I had just washed up when Carlos appeared . _
As soon as he walked in , he asked , “ Honey , how are you feeling today ? ”
“ My stomach hurts a little . I asked the doctor , and the doctor said I didn’t need to worry too much . I just needed to rest . ” Now I could even keep a straight face when I lied .
“ That ‘s good . You need to be very careful .” Carlos opened a thermos that he brought with him . “ This is a soup I cooked . _ Try it .”
With a grateful expression , I finished the soup . Carlos then opened another bag and took out a box . _ “ Honey , this is the jade necklace you wanted . _ _ I brought it to you ” .
He opened the box and took out a jade necklace . Although it looked identical , I could tell with a look that it was n’t the same one I had before . The texture and color , including the finish , were obviously much better . _
From what Henriques told me last night , I was n’t too surprised about the jewelry thing . _ _ Quite naturally , I took the jade necklace from him and put it on .
When I didn’t seem to notice any difference with the necklace , Carlos seemed to let out a sigh of relief . He chatted with me some more , then suddenly changed the subject to his mother . “ Honey , I ‘m thinking of getting Mom and Dad _move ” . _
“ Why should they move when they are perfectly fine there ? _ Was it because of what happened yesterday ? Honey , I told you what happened yesterday was just an accident . _ _ _ Mom did n’t mean it . You will break the hearther if you do that , and you will put me in a difficult position . ”
“ It ‘s not entirely about what happened yesterday . You also know that my mother is not an easy person to get along with and is careless in her handling of things . I’m worried that it might affect your mood . Everything was fine before , whenyou were n’t pregnant , but now that you are , things have to change .”

When he said that , he sounded so loud , like it was all for my good . _ If I didn’t know what kind of person he was . I definitely would have been tricked , but now I knew everything .
What I needed to do was inhibit anything Carlos wanted to do , so I quickly gave my answer . ” I don’t agree with the change of mom and dad ” .
”
“ Why ? _ Carlos looked at me in surprise . He knew very well what kind of people his parents were . He probably thought I would be ecstatic when I mentioned it , but now that I was against it , he was surprised .
“ Mom and Dad are old now . They need someone to take care of them . Have you ever thought about how they would feel if you changed them ? Also , I do n’t think Mom is a difficult person to get along with . Although she has her faults, she is not a bad person , plus she is so looking forward to grandchildren . When she finds out I ‘m pregnant , she ‘s sure to smother me with worry . There’s no way she wouldn’t treat me right . ”
I said all this with great sincerity , but Carlos could n’t stay still any longer . For the last few years , I’ve given it my all with no regrets or complaints , but I’ve found your betrayal relentless . If he still had a trace of conscience in him ,he would feel ashamed .
