“What’s going on?” Carlos demanded. Spotting him, they all made way for him.
With everyone out of his way, now Carlos could see clearly. Lewis was lying on the floor, cupping his face. Beside him was Debbie with a coat draped around her shoulders. Her eyes reddened as soon as she saw
Carlos.
The elders of the Hilton family had scolded her harshly without listening to her explanation. Carlos was the only one that could provide her with comfort right now.
But she didn’t move. She was waiting for him to go near her.

Carlos, look what your wife did! Trying to bed your cousin while you weren’t home! We wouldn’t have known, but they were too loud. This is the woman you’ve been protecting! How can we ever show our faces anywhere if word gets out?”
Lewis got to his feet and looked fearfully at Carlos.
“C-Carlos,
Debbie…she toldthat… you weren’t htonight and… askedto… to c-cto her room. S- so I did…”
With a hideous face, Valerie berated, “You married well this time! God, what a whore! Even though your father and I don’t approve of your marriage, you still take her side!”
No one else said anything. Swere too scared to speak, others were too angry, Like Miranda.
She looked at Lewis with a livid expression on her face, as if she wanted to beat him to death right now. If looks could kill, Lewis would have been a smoldering corpse.
Carlos walked towards Lewis, stood in front of him, and then without a word, sent him flying to the wall with a heavy kick. The beaten man screamed painfully.
The others gaped at the sight. Worried about Lewis, Valerie panicked.
“What are you doing? Why hit Lewis? It’s your wife who did this!”
Not responding, Carlos grabbed Lewis by the collar and gave him two heavy blows to the face. The disgusting man’s squeals pierced the air.
And blood covered his whole front side, red, wet, sticky; all gushing from his broken nose and ruined Lips.

“Carlos, chill.”
Carlos brushed them aside, took off his coat, and threw it to Debbie, who had been stunned into a trance by his sudden outburst. She caught his coat reflexively.
Lewis fell onto the floor, but Carlos lifted him up and punched him again. Now Carlos’ fists were covered with the pathetic loser’s blood.
Sof it flecked onto Carlos clothing as well. He appeared to pay no mind to that fact.
Everyone panicked.
Since he couldn’t stop Carlos, James suddenly stalked towards Debbie and slapped her hard across the face.
Focused on Carlos, Debbie didn’t see the slap coming.
