Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson) novel Chapter 135

Chapter 135

I didn’t know Henriques very well, and my understanding of him was based mainly on what Isabel occasionally told me. The Ribeiro Familia were rich and powerful, so it really wouldn’t require much from them to deal with Carlos.

But would he help me? I shook my head. I didn’t know Henriques well enough, but even if I did, he might not agree to help in such a matter.

However, the words that Henriques said to Carlos during the fight, as well as the exchanges between Carlos and Joana,

came back to my memory.

It was clear that Henriques and Carlos had a grudge against each other, and if I used that as a reason to cause discord, would that make this request an exception?

I knew it was a risky speculation, but as long as there was still a glimmer of hope, I told myself I wouldn’t let it go.

Now, I needed to find out what grudge existed before, so I can use it to my advantage.

Just as I was thinking about how to carry out my plan, I heard Victoria’s voice coming from the living room. “You guys are back!”

Then came my mother-in-law’s happy voice. “Yes we are. Victoria, bring me a glass of water, please.”

Vitória grunted and went to ask my father-in-law: “Mr. Morales, what do you want? Fruit juice or tea?”

“I’m going to have some tea.” My father-in-law looked a little different than usual.

Hearing this, I quickly jumped out of bed and stopped next to my door. Through the gap, I saw that my father-in-law and mother-in-law were sitting on the sofa, looking happy.

After that, I went outside and asked: “Mom, Dad, where did you come from? Is there something to celebrate? Why do you look so happy?”

“Nothing,” replied my mother-in-law. “We were just helping Joana with the discharge paperwork”.

I didn’t believe this explanation. There must have been something else that they were hiding from me.

Only one in three things could make them happy: first, a windfall; second, something good happens to their child; third, something good happened to their daughter.

It couldn’t be Carlos due to the bruises on his face, so it was the first or third reason. Since it couldn’t be a windfall, my gut told me it must have something to do with Pamela.

On that note, I hadn’t seen Pamela in a few days, and that solidified my speculation. But what kind of good news would Pamela have?

Pamela never got good grades in school, and the only reason she was able to go to college was because Carlos saved up enough money to pay her tuition. Besides showing everyone how rich she was, she never had any achievements in

school.

I suddenly remembered that Pamela’s twenty-second birthday was just days away. Could this be it? But she celebrated her birthday every year, so that shouldn’t be the reason.

After dinner, I went for a walk alone while Carlos continued to work in the room with a bruised face and Joana went back to the room to rest a little.
