“Since her health is bad, why can’t she just behave and stop pissingoff?’ Debbie thought to herself.
A bad feeling rose in Carlos’ heart. He knew Debbie too well. There was a good chance she wouldn’t Let Megan off the hook easily this time. He tried his hardest to control his emotions and did his level best to calm her down.
“Debbie, Listen-she’s innocent.” What caused this mess was that Debbie was accused of taking birth control pills. Megan was the one who told Carlos about it, but he already knew that there was something more complicated behind the accusation. Megan might have been a pawn in a gthat someone else was playing, trying to get rid of
Debbie. He had asked Emmett to investigate the truth.
“She’s innocent? Then what about me?” Hearing him defend Megan disappointed Debbie. She felt she was owed at least the samount of respect, and he definitely wasn’t showing it. He just grew enraged and colder when he found out the result of the blood test, and didn’t even listen to her side of it. True, with the steroidal compounds showing up in her blood, it didn’t look good for her, but there had to be sother explanation. Maybe someone had ground it up in her food, or something else. But Carlos had jumped to conclusions immediately. She was his wife, dammit! He should believe her over Megan.

“I won’t Let her go this time.” As she finished this sentence, she hung up at once. She wasn’t interested in hearing any more excuses.
Everyone in the car remained silent and held their breath the whole time. They were all well aware who Debbie was talking to.
Debbie’s phone rang a few more times but every time, she rejected the call as soon as it rang.
Carlos called one of Megan’s bodyguards and figured out where they were going. Realizing her intent, he hurriedly drove out with Emmett, tracing their routes.
But a few minutes later, the bodyguard called again, reporting to
Carlos that they had lost track of their car.
Carlos immediately called Tristan and asked him to check Debbie’s GPS position.
Jared finally stopped the car by the side of a river. This location was carefully selected by Debbie. She had personally cto study the surroundings beforehand. It was quiet here with no cars passing by. No one to see what was going on. No one to call for help.
Megan was forced to get out of the car. At the sight of the surging waves of the river, she was frightened, feeling the colors drain from her face. ‘This was how Debbie almost lost her life, ‘ she thought.
“Does she have a similar fate in mind for me?’ She was hoping to rely on Carlos, but she wasn’t sure he’d be able to find Debbie, or get here in tif something drastic happened.
She tried to compose herself.

Debbie remained silent.
“Why did you bringhere? It’s so cold outside,” Megan said, hoping to break the awkward silence.
Debbie grabbed her by her wrist, dragging her closer to the riverbank.
Megan’s legs were trembling.
“What are you doing? If Carlos and Wesley hear about this…”
When Carlos was mentioned, Debbie chuckled.
“Carlos will lovelike he always has. Only this time, you won’t be in the way.”
