” My mother is sick ” , explained Carlos . “ As for Pamela , I ‘ll talk to her . ”
“ It’s not a matter of talking to her . You should show some sincerity . Isabel scoffed . “ It ‘s not that I want to punish you , but women need pampering . What have you done for Linda all these years ?
At that moment , I coughed just in time and Carlos instantly turned around . “ Honey , are you awake ? ”
I shook my head weakly . “ Husband , is the problem at work solved ? ”

“ You are much more important than my company ! _ _ Carlos took my hand gently . _ “ Honey , I am so sorry that you suffered in my absence ” .
“ We are husband and wife , so why are you saying these things ? ”
“ Honey , I bought your favorite soup . Here , I will feed you . As he spoke , he opened the thermos he had brought and started feeding me . _ _ _
Disgust flooded through me , but I outwardly said , ” Thanks , husband , but I can manage on my own . “
“ You are weak , so let me feed you . _ _ ” While Carlos was saying that , he had already brought the soup to my mouth .
Stifling my revulsion , I took a spoonful . It tastes really good and it ‘s really my favorite soup . _ Since I was starving and the soup was delicious , I put aside my dislike . After eating the bowl of soup he gave me , _ _I flashed Isabel a smile . “ Is n’t my husband great ? ”
“ Oh , you ‘re making me jealous . _ Isabel deliberately shot me a glare . _ ” You are the classic example of someone who never learns the lesson ” .
“ Are you jealous ? _ ” I stuck out my tongue at her .
“ What is there to envy about you ? Isabel cleared her throat . Then , she reached out and stroked the bracelet on her wrist as she smiled meaningfully at me . “ Although I lack his love , I am compensated in other ways . ”
I naturally understood what she meant , so I asked : “ Is this a new bracelet ? How much did he spend this time ? ”
“ About a million “ . _ Isabel sighed . “ Now I am so poor that the only thing I have left is money ” .
“ Don’t say that . Leonardo has feelings for you , otherwise he would n’t have spent a fortune to buy you such a beautiful bracelet .”
“ Come on , I ‘ve already learned from men . It is only when they have no feelings for you that they materially compensate you . Your Carlos has feelings for you , so he never compensated you materially .
“ So , are you admitting that you envy me ?”
