Chapter 15
There was a moment of silence after Carlos said this , before his mother started screaming loudly : “ Oh , my son is kicking me out of the house ! _ That’s it , it will be the end of me ! ” It was difficult to control her once shestarted to run wildly . Now , her screams were getting louder , despite Joana and Pamela ‘s attempts to calm her down . _ _ _
However , the fact that there were people trying to calm her down only encouraged her more , as she scolded how much her son was a heartless bastard , in addition to complaining about how much she had sacrificed for Carlos and the Morais family .
Although Carlos had always been obedient to her , he was also someone with a lot of pride ; she didn’t seem to notice that he was irritated by the way she had berated him in front of so many people . “ You can ask for the refund you want , sincewho sacrificed so much for his family ! I’ll give you all I can offer , or you can take my life if that still does n’t satisfy you !
At that moment , I was listening intently to what was going on outside as I sat in my room with Bianca in my arms . I assumed the charade would continue , but I never expected it to be interrupted by a scream .
“ What are you trying to do with all this ? Go back to your room and stop humiliating yourself , you bitch ! _ ” My father-in – law finally spoke after being silent the whole time .
My mother – in-law always feared him , so her whining stopped after he attacked her . However , I was feeling it was a shame that the show ended so quickly . _ _ There was a knock on the door before my father-in- law ‘s voice arrived .. “ Linda , your mother-in-law is wrong for what happened now . Please allow me to apologize to you on her behalf , so do n’t hold a grudge against her . ” _
Upon hearing his apology , I responded with mock generosity , “ Dad , I ‘m not angry . You two are Carlos ‘s parents , which makes you my parents too . _ It is normal for there to be an argument between parents and children , so I will nottake it to
seriously ” .
“ I know you ‘re a good girl . _ The fact that Carlos married you proves how fortunate we are . _ _
“ It ‘s a pleasure to marry Carlos too , father . ” I could have easily replied with something equally good , to which he muttered and left satisfied .
After that , Carlos entered the room with the intention of hugging me as an apology , but he gave up when he realized that Bianca was fast asleep in my arms . I made Bianca sleep with us later at night in order to stop him . _from attempting any advances at night , which he took as a sign that my feelings were hurt by my mother-in – law . So he looked at me with an apologetic look on his face as we spent the rest of the night in silence .
The next morning , I saw my mother-in-law as I took Bianca out of the room after I finished washing . She had a fake smile on when she looked at me . “ Linda , I made some porridge and bought some rolls with milk , so come and have breakfastin the morning ” .
“ Thanks , Mom ! ” I gave my usual response before leading Bianca to the dinner table . _ _ My father-in- law already ate . Joana filled her own bowl while greeting me with a smile . ′′ Good morning ′′ .
As I pulled out a chair for Bianca , I answered her : “ Good morning ” . Joana quickly filled a bowl with some porridge , which she placed in front of Bianca , but Bianca didn’t seem to want it and pushed it away from her , ” Mother, I want some milk ” . _
“ Porridge is not good ? Why do you want milk ? ” My mother-in-law intended to defend Joana , but she shut up as soon as her husband threw The a fierce look .
“ Milk is good for children “ . _ As I poured some milk for Bianca and myself , I replied , but quickly added , as I knew none of them drank milk : “ You should try it too , it ‘s good for your health ”.
“ I don’t like the weird smell of it , ” my mother-in- law said dismissively before sitting down to eat her porridge .
Meanwhile , I drank my milk , and turned to Joana , who was looking nonstop at the entrance to the dining room . _ _ _ So , I mentally mocked before insisting with her : “ Joana , you should also eat ” .
” I would like to wait for Carlos and Pâmela ” , said Joana , but I imagined that she must be waiting for Carlos and not for
pamela
Unexpectedly , my father-in-law , who was eating his porridge in silence , raised his head to retort : “ Pamela only wakes up at ten in the morning , so why wait for her ? ”
“ Yes , I also made Carlos sleep a little longer because he told me he was tired , so you do n’t have to – wait for either of them , ” I said deliberately , which caused Joana to look at me with a fleeting look , buthateful .
As expected , not only was she so focused on Carlos , she also assumed we had sex last night , which made me giggle internally . _ _ Joan , you should just wallow in your jealous feelings all day . _ _
As she assumed that Carlos was n’t going to show up so soon , Joana could only sit down to eat breakfast , but he went into the dining room after she had eaten just a few mouthfuls . Seeing him enter , Joana stood up . _ _quickly to you

fill a bowl of porridge , which I watched with indignation as I realized that she no longer bothered to contain herself .
However , Carlos helped himself to some milk before sitting down next to me instead of eating the porridge that Joana had given him when she noticed that Bianca and I were drinking milk . There was a slight embarrassment in Joana ‘s expression when my father-in-law coughed .He then slowly left the dining room after pushing his bowl away from him . _ _
As soon as he left , my mother-in-law was creating a stir again . “ Carlos , why do n’t you have some porridge ? It was Joana who made it and it is very delicious “ . That old bitch just told me she made the porridge _ _ _ _ _, but now she was lying to Carlos . _
There was an impatient expression on his face as he snapped , “ I prefer milk . Is there something wrong with that ? ”
My mother-in-law had nothing to say about it , so she looked at me as she changed the subject . “ I’m going to look for a housekeeper in the job market today , so what kind of person do you think I should look for ? By the way , how muchshould be the employee ‘s monthly salary ? ”
Apparently , she was not willing to listen to anything I said last night , as she still intended to hire a maid . _ I decided that I would give in on the matter , but I would n’t be paying the maid , so she should ask for the money from theCharles . I checked my watch before looking at Bianca . _ “ Bianca , you ‘ll be late if we don’t go . Finish your milk so I can take you to school . _ _ _
When I realized that I was ignoring her , my mother-in-law ‘s expression turned sour , but I simply said goodbye to her without paying any attention to her : “ Mother , dear Joana , I ‘m going to say goodbye ! ”
As I left the dining room with Bianca , I heard her repeating what she said to Carlos , which only earned her a disgruntled response from him . “ You decide ! ”
I went to my company after dropping Bianca off at kindergarten . In order to concentrate on dealing with Carlos , I had taken time off from work , so now that I’m back at work , my colleagues came out to greet me as soon as they saw me .
I returned to my office after greeting everyone . _ As soon as I sat down , Jessica Lopes from the public relations department walked in . “ Linda , you ‘re finally back ! I missed you so much ! _ ”
“ Forget the formalities and tell me what you need . ” I did n’t believe what she said for a second , because she only came to me whenever she found a problem .
