Chapter 62
Even wanting his love , Joana could n’t expose herself now . _ Being the false friend that she was , she thanked Carlos , curbing her desire for him.
“ You ‘re Linda ‘s friend , which makes you my friend . _ Friends help each other , don’t they ? ” That scoundrel even used me as an excuse to cover up .
The whole family thought I was an idiot , but I knew exactly what I was doing . _ “ School is almost over for the day . _ ” I looked at the time . “ I’m going to need to pick up Bianca “ .
Maybe he felt guilty , or maybe he was worried that I might find out something , so Carlos got up . “ I ‘ll go with you , dear ” .
When I talked to Carlos , I could still see how much Joana wanted him to stay . It wo n’t happen today . I scoffed softly . I did n’t refuse the offer and went out with him after reminding Victoria about some precautions to take .
We bumped into Henriques in the hallway as soon as we left . He was in a wheelchair now , while Gustavo was pushing him from behind . _ Me leaving with Carlos shocked him , so he glared at us .
In the same way , Carlos also saw him , so he quickly approached Henriques . _ “ What happened , Mr. _ Ribeiro ? he asked politely . _
“ My leg is hurt . Henriques looked distant , obviously wanting nothing to do with him . _ _ _
“ Oh , how did you get hurt then ? ” Carlos was still eager to please him . _
” Someone bumped into me “. Henriques remained indifferent , but then he looked at me . Hey , that was not on purpose .
This guy is very weak .
Carlos was disturbed to see Henriques looking at me , so he blocked me out of his sight . “ I wish you a speedy recovery , Mr. Ribeiro . We ‘re leaving . ”
Henriques nodded , and Gustavo took him to the infirmary , while Carlos left with me quickly . _ _
Carlos was acting weird today . If it had been at another time , he would have introduced me when greeting Henriques . So why did n’t he ? _ _ _ Strange . Immersed in my questions , I did n’t realize he was holding my hand .
