Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 19

The look on my mother-in-

law ‘s face was an absolutely brilliant sight to behold , while Carlos was obviously stunned by that sum

as he said in disbelief , ” Mom did n’t tell me anything about her salary last night …

“ She must have forgotten , but she told me it would cost twelve grand . Is n’t

she , mother ? ” I was aiming at my mother – in-law , because I knew she wanted to

profit from it , that ‘s why I told everyone the value of Vitória ‘s salary ,all the while trying

to get my mother-in-law to admit it .

what

If she admitted this , she could not gain anything from it , but if she denied it , it would

be equivalent to her admitting that she wanted to

take my money . I would definitely like to see her make the choice . _ As expected , she was visiblyboth

ered by this , but eventually , she still decided to admit that Victoria ‘s salary would be twelve thousand

after some internal conflicts .

Shock and disbelief flitted across Victoria ‘s face as soon as my mother – in –

law admitted it . Victoria looked like she

had something to say , but I didn’t give her the chance to speak as I

had before her . “ Mom told me that Vitória is _ _an extremely capable person , so she will not only wor

k as a maid , but will also take care of Joana during her pregnancy , so it

must cost around fifteen thousand at the most . So , dare I say it ‘ s worth

it for da baby ‘ s sake .Joan . Don’t you think , dear ?

Now that things had

reached this point , Carlos could n’t say anything more than agree with a bitter smile , while my mother

-in-law looked terribly pale as she had n’t expected to

encounter such a turn of events . If she knew that her son _I would

pay Vitória ‘s salary in my place , I would probably have a hemorrhage stroke .

After everything was resolved , I left the house with Bianca by my side , while Vitória said goodbye . _

She had a flattering smile as we waited

for the elevator . “ You can tell me what you want for dinner , so I can prepare it for you .–los“.

I flashed a knowing smile as I replied , ” I prefer something spicy ” .

“ How about some spicy fish or chicken ? ”

I gave her a wave before stepping into the elevator with Bianca . _

Victoria was a smart woman . As the sole victor during the early morning incident , she knew Carlos ‘ m

other would be mad at her , which meant she would have a hard time pleasing the old lady , so I was h

er . _ _only hope of staying in the family to earn his stipulated salary .

Dinner was ready when I got home . As soon as she saw the two plates I indicated , my mother-in-

law ‘s expression soured . “ Who told you to prepare these spicy dishes ? ”

“ Is n’t Pamela the one who likes that ? I

told her to prepare them for Pâmela ” , I said , without giving Vitória a chance to speak . Since her salar

y depended on me , she would never expose me .

However , my mother – in – Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

law was still in a bad mood as she rambled on , despite what I told her . “ Spicy food is not good for a p

regnant woman like Joana , so you should refrain from preparing spicy dishes in the future “ . _

After listening to what she said , I exclaimed looking at Pamela : “ Mom certainly treats Joana so well ,

even better than you , Pamela ! _ _ ” I made a deliberate attempt to involve Pamela in

the conflict , which managed to irritate her .
