Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson)

Chapter 45

“ She said you are lazy , moody and do n’t help around the house . _ _ Furthermore , she said that Carl

os is the one who served you all these years , and you often commanded him like a slave … ”

“ What ?! _ How

can she say these things about me ? I treated her like my best friend and never mistreated her . Why di

d she treat me like that ? ” I made a saddened face . _

“ You simply cannot judge a book by its cover ! Linda , you are very naive and ignorant of all the twists

and turns buried in the human heart . _ Some people are simply traitors ! You really have to keep an ey

e onJoana ”, advised Vitória , with great patience .

“ Thanks Victoria , I’ll take that into consideration ” . Seeing how sincere she was , I had to be more gra

teful for her kindness . _

As soon as I entered my room , I pulled out the drawer and put the pills in my purse . With that, I

decided to let Sara check the meds I had been taking .

Only then did I hear voices coming from outside and I thought that Joana and Morais must be back .

Without thinking too much about it , I stayed in the room and did n’t plan on going out to meet them .

At first , the conversation was quite harmonious , but after a while , I heard my mother-in-

law howl in pain and sternly question : “ I asked for warm water ! Are you trying to burn me with this ?

“ Sorry ! I ‘m really sorry ! ” Victoria apologized . _

“ What ‘s the use of apologizing now ? _ Please be more careful next time ! _ _ I spent an arm and a le

g to hire you , so your service has to be worth the price . _ _ Otherwise , what is the _advantage of hirinNôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

g her ? _ As usual , my mother – in – law

‘ s words were harsh and spiteful , but Victoria remained silent , without answering . So , after spending

some time lecturing Victoria , my mother – in – law gave up .

Just when I thought the commotion was about to subside , another loud scream from Joan was heard .

_ “ Look what you ‘ve done to my clothes ! This needs to be hand washed , not machine washed ! “ .

“ Mrs. _ Ramos , before washing this , I asked if this can be machine washed . _ You didn’t say no ” , Vi

ctoria retorted .

“ Did I say yes then ? As a maid , you lack common sense ? _ This garment is extremely expensive ! _

_ How should

we resolve this?” Frankly , this was the first time I saw this side of Joana , as she was always kindand e

asy to deal with in front of me .

“ I … ” Victoria stammered .

“ What else ? Pay for the damage ! ” My mother – in -

law intervened : “ Joana ‘s clothes cost several tens of thousands . Since you ‘re the one who broke

it , you have to buy her a new one . ”

“ Several tens of thousands ? How can I pay for it ? ”

“ Is n’t your monthly salary about twelve thousand ? _ _ _ You can pay me as soon as you

receive your salary ! Joana demanded in her high- pitched voice . “ This garment costs eighty thousand

. _ I do n’t expect you to pay all at once , so amonthly installment is fine with me ” .

Completely dumbfounded , I found the idea of monthly installments simply bizarre !

“ I didn’t do

it on purpose . Besides , this garment is not even new . _ _ How can you ask me to pay the original pric

e ? ” Victoria did not intend to give up .

“ I see you are very good with your words . This piece is a limited edition from a renowned brand . _ Th

ere

are only about a hundred pieces left in the entire world , which means you ca n’t get your hands on one

of them , evenhave money ! _ If you think it’s

expensive , so be it ! I don’t need the money . Can you give me the exact same piece .

Without giving up , Joana was really annoying , and my mother-in –

law threw herself : “ Exactly ! Joana ‘s piece was a limited edition . _ If you refuse to pay for the damag

e , you can just buy her a new one ! ”

“ I … ” Vitória stuttered when feeling intimidated by Joana and not finding a word to refute . _

“ I

think Vitória did n’t do it on purpose , and considering that it’s not easy for her as a domestic worker , c

an I suggest to Joana that she lower the compensation amount ? ” My father-

in- law , who was silent the whole time , suggestedabruptly .

that Mr. _ Morais spoke in his name of Him, I will gladly give in . You can only pay me eight thousand .”

It was a dramatic turnaround –

the price dropped dramatically from eighty thousand to eight thousand . Listening to everything that ha

ppened , I realized that they planned this all along . Initially , the salary agreed between Vitória and my

mother-in- law was four thousand ,so my mother-in-law

was just concocting a scheme to claim the extra eight grand .

In this case, they used Joana ‘s clothes as an excuse . Next time they would probably come

up with other ways . How could I let this group of thugs go their selfish ways ?

Rubbing my eyes , I left the room while acting all sleepy . “ What ‘s going on here ? ”
