Chapter 43


    “ Not exactly . I only saw him a few times at social events ” – replied Isabel .


    At that moment , the woman was quickly ushered inside . Seeing Henriques limping after her , his shirt


    covered in blood , the hospital director cautiously asked : “ President Ribeiro , Mrs. _ _ Soares and the


    child will be fine with Sarahere . Why are you not examined ?  _


    “ It’s all right , ” Henriques refused , limping after her .


    When Isabel heard the hospital director ‘sment , she abruptly eximed , “ Could this Mrs. _ _ _ C


    ould Soares be Cam


    Soares ?” Her voice was a little loud , so Henriques ‘ head spun as he looked at us . _ the look inhis ey


    es were extremely wintry , freezing to


    the bone . The moment her eyes met mine , however , her gaze suddenly softened considerably . _ _ _


    _ _ However , Isabel and I both winced at the look on her


    face . With furrowed brows , _Henriques approached and stopped in front of us . _ “ This is a private m


    atter , so please keep this between us , ” he murmured softly . _ Isabel and I nodded instinctively . Look


    ing at me , he opened his mouth a little and wasabout to extend his hand when he


    noticed the blood all over his body . In the end , he did n’t say anything , just bowed his head to us befo


    re turning and leaving . Isabel and I didn’t dare stay here either , so we hurriedly left .


    When we got back to the car , Isabel still looked pretty scared . ”


    I finally experienced all the strength of Henriques Ribeiro today ” .


    “ What do you mean ? _ ”


    “ Didn’t


    you see the look in his eyes when he looked at us earlier ? ” Isabel countered . “ Why do people say he


    is a handsome devil ? _ _ He is simply the devil in the flesh ! _ He almost gave me a fitcardiac ! ” Natur


    ally , I  felt the same because Henriques ‘ look before was truly petrifying .


    “ Who is Cam Soares ? And why did Henriques Ribeiro look at us like that ? ”


    “ Cam Soares is a celebrity . As for why he looked at us that way , it ‘s probably because he ‘s afraid


    that I ‘ll attract the paparazzi ‘s attention by shouting her name , “ – Isabel deduced . _ “ After


    all , they don’twere they talking about saving the mother and child ? I think Cam Soares must be preg


    nant with him . Just look how nervous he was earlier .  ” _


    “ Oh , yes . This Henriques Ribeiro is really a bizarre person to be unbearably arrogant even at


    a time like this . He must be used to doing what he wants .”


    “ Don’t you know ? Isabel looked at me strangely ,  _


    “ Know what ? _ ” – I asked in return .


    “ That Delta Hospital is owned by Henriques Ribeiro ‘s family . ”


    Is Delta Hospital owned by the Henriques Ribeiro family ? _ I


    was scared for a moment . “ Does n’t Henriques Ribeiro work mainly with luxury items ? _ Why does he


    have a hospital ? ”


    “The Ribeiro Family ‘s industries are spread across the country , involving finance , real estate , retail , j


    ewelry and also medicine … ” At this , Isabel reached out and popped my head . “ I tell you , Linda , yo


    u are regressing a lot


    .! It seems that marrying Carlos Morais not only lowered her tastes but also lowered her social circle . ”


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Upon hearing his words , I


    could n’t help but smile bitterly . In fact , I ‘ve been absorbed in working hard after marrying Carlos , all


    my time taken up with work and home . _ _ To prevent him from feeling inferior and to save onexpense


    s for dresses and jewelry , I even


    tried my best not to attend any events among the upper echelons of society , even if there


    was an opportunity to do so . As a result , my social circle has


    shrunk . Therefore , Isabel is not wrong into say that I downgraded both my likes and my social circle !


    Upon seeing my bitter smile , remorse flooded Isabel . “ If I had insisted on preventing you from marryin


    g Carlos back then , you would not have ended up in these circumstances .  ”


    ” What ‘s the use of saying that now?” I


    took a long breath . Everyone chooses their own paths . _ Since I chose Carlos Morais , who can I


    me for all this ?  _


    When I returned home , Victoria was the only one . When she saw me returning so


    early , she came to me immediately . “ Why are you home so early today ? _ _ ”


    “ I didn’t have much work at


    the office today . Where are the others ? ” As soon  as I said that , Victoria ‘s expression changed a littl
