Chapter: 119
Debbie intended to turn him down, but when she recalled what he had said to her on the playground, an idea popped up into her head. She mustered up the strength and pushed him onto the couch.
Lying there, Carlos looked at her in disbelief.
‘What just happened? Did I, Carlos, just get knocked over by a girl? *
Debbie then walked towards the couch and leaned over him with her hands on his chest. Instantly, Carlos understood what she was trying to do.

Debbie’s eyes widened with shock. She felt hurt. ‘How is he able to stay calm in such a situation?
Apart from my pretty face, am I not attractive enough?
That must be it, or else, why would he not be tempted?
Did he say that toon the playground because he doesn’t have any feelings for me?’
Debbie’s heart grew numb. Her mood turned sour Like bad milk. For the first tin her life, she hated herself.
During the remainder of the lesson, she kept silent. Carlos was focused and she seemed attentive. But only she knew what was going on in her mind.
An hour later, Carlos closed his book.
“That’s all for today,” he said.
With a nod, Debbie put away her book, looking distracted.
After the lesson, she got up to leave the study, but as soon as she opened the door, Carlos asked her to cback. She turned around in puzzlement.
He took out his wallet from his pocket, pulled out two cards, and handed them to her.

Limit.”
The savings card had the annual revenue of one of the branches of his companies. He figured it would be enough to cover her expenses.
Debbie’s eyes almost popped out at his words, and her mouth gaped open.
Nine figures? She held out her hands and counted on her fingers. One zero, two zeros, three zeros… hundred, thousand…million… My God!
One hundred million? ? ? ?
“No, thank you.” Debbie refused him, instinctively. She had her reasons, all of which were valid.
Carlos knew what she was thinking. Although he wasn’t sure what her life would be Like in the future or what kind of person she would turn out to be, right now, she was a person with a good heart. Pure and honorable. She still didn’t understand how important money was yet.
“We’re not divorced yet. You’re still my wife. I see no reason why I shouldn’t support my wife.”
