Chapter 99
When they saw that I had become serious , both Joana and my mother-in –
law were somewhat surprised , thinking that I could say something beyond their expectations . Clearin
g my throat , I then said , “ Bianca went into her room to playanother day and messed up your stuff .”
When Joana heard
that I was talking about such an insignificant matter , she kindly replied : “ This is just a trivial matter , s
o don’t worry about it . If it ‘s messy , I ‘ll clean some up when I get back .
“ It’s not a matter of tidying
up . The problem is that there are expensive jewels in her room , so I ‘m afraid Bianca took some , sinc
e she ‘s still young . I purposely mentioned your Dela jewelry
. “ Joana , just list me the jewelsthat you have , and I ‘ll help you check when I get back later . “
After bringing up the subject of Joana ‘s jewelry with my mother-in-
law at the time , she went home once , but then I heard from Vitória that she rummaged in Joana ‘s roo
m for a long time , only to leave it empty -
handed . Therefore , _Joana must have hidden the jewels so as not to
find anything . Well , I was deliberately saying this so that Joana would reveal where she had hidden th
e jewels . Considering my mother-in-law ‘s avarice , she would definitely take
advantage of this opportunity .
Sure enough , her eyes instantly lit up at my words . Joana , however , did
not notice anything . “ My jewelry is locked in a box in the closet , so Bianca should n’t have
been able to unlock it . ”
“ I am glad to hear that .” I feigned an expression of relief .
My mother-in-
law was clearly uneasy when she found out that Joana ‘s jewelry was locked in the closet , because aft
er a while she voluntarily let it out , saying : “ Linda , stay here and keep Joana company . I’ll go
back and get someclothes changes . _
“ Mom , why do n’t I ask Carlos to bring you some clothes ? _ ” I knew why she wanted to go home , so Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
I said that intentionally . _
“ That’s right . Ask Carlos to bring the clothes . _ Joana also panicked a bit when she heard my mother-
in – law saying
who wanted to go home , so she immediately helped to stay with
her . Naturally , she had no idea that my mother-in-law wanted to go back for her jewelry , as she
was just worried that Carlos wouldn’t be able to visit her again if I stayed around .near .
“ I also want to go back and take a look at my old man . I
haven’t seen him for a few days , so I’m worried about his health . ”
“ Oh , that ‘s true . You really haven’t seen Dad in a few days , Mom . How about I take you home ? _ ”
“ No , it’s fine . There are plenty of taxis around so I can hail one , ” my mother-in –
law said in refusal . So she immediately got up . _ “ Linda , I ‘ll leave things here for you . I’ll
be right back after I clean upsome clothes . After saying that , she hurriedly left the hospital . _
Meanwhile , Joana was obviously unhappy to see her go . _ _ And she didn’t even know
why my mother – in- law . If she knew that my mother-in-
law was going after her jewelry , she would certainly be very distressed . However , having my mother-
in – lawstealing her jewelry was n’t my real goal right
now . My intention was just to send her off and have a good chat with Joana ! _
