Why do you think he gave us the cards?” Kasie raised her brows at
Debbie and continued after a pause, “It’s as the saying goes, ‘Love me, love my dog’. He wanted to treat your friends well because he cares about you! I wish you would look before you leap anymore. There must be skind of misunderstanding between you and him. Why don’t you two just sit down and talk?”
Kristina echoed, “Exactly. And that day, when we were having lunch on the fifth floor of the Alioth Building, he joined us. You two started showing off your affection for each other before us. We were so jealous of you! I still remember the way he looked at you. His eyes were full of affection. If it weren’t for my dear Dixon, I would have already fallen for Carlos.”
Debbie rolled her eyes at her friends and snapped back, “I can’t believe that you both are smitten by him. And here I thought that I could count on you to bring him down. Oh, my heart is broken.” ‘Kasie and Kristina are so mean. Ever since they found out that Carlos is my husband, they seem to have forgotten what he had done toin the past, ‘ Debbie mused.
Since that twhen Carlos had gone to Jork to rescue her, Debbie had been so touched and had forgotten the terrible things he had done to her in the past. But now, the memories cflooding back to her. ‘He had his men throwinto the ocean. And he even threatened to buryalive! The jerk!‘ she cursed inwardly.

Before Kasie could finish her
She gave her a proud smile and said, “I did! I slapped him right across the face.”
“What? both Kasie and Kristina blurted in unison, stunned by her confession. Kristina choked on the red beans in the milk tea and coughed violently. After she stopped coughing, she asked in disbelief,
“Are you kidding me? Tomboy, did you really slap him?”
Debbie nodded nonchalantly and thought to herself, ‘How dare he think so low of me! I let him off easy by only slapping him once!’
Kasie covered her face with both hands. She knew that Debbie was a short-tempered girl, but she never expected that she would slap her husband across the face.
“Tomboy, why are you always so impulsive? Who do you think Carlos is? He’s the richest man in Alorith! No, the richest man in the world! ! How could you lay your hands on him?!”
Debbie sat upright and told them with a straight face, “This is not the first tI’ve hit him. It happened once when Jared tookto a wine party. I almost turned him into a eunuch by kicking him in the crotch.”
She could still remember how hard she had kicked him that day.
Kasie and Kristina stared at Debbie, mouth agape.
Words had left them. Finally, Kasie found her voice. She patted Debbie on the shoulder and said, “Tomboy, he hasn’t killed you after what you have done. He must Love you very much. You must be nicer to him, okay?”

Debbie couldn’t believe her ears. She shook her head at her two friends.
She didn’t want to go hthen. And she didn’t want to go hthat evening either.
Dixon called Kristina a while later and she bid goodbye to her friends and left soon after. Kasie and Debbie stayed there until 9 p.m. They hailed a taxi and went to the university.
When they got out of the taxi, many students were swarming into the university. The university gates closed at 10 p.m. At the entrance of the girls’ dorm, many couples were hugging and kissing, unwilling to say their goodbyes for the night.
“I’m a big big girl, in a big big world; it’s not a big big thing, if you leave me…” Debbie was about to enter the dorm when her phone started ringing loudly.
She took it out from her pocket and was surprised to see the non the screen.
Kasie turned to her and asked with a frown, “Who is it? Why are you not answering?”
