NovelEnglishDebbie’s heart skipped a beat when he said “but,” and she asked, “But what?”
“Nothing. Didn’t he tell you about the expo?” he asked curiously. The whole world would have its attention turned to the expo, and Carlos should be taking his wife to it. Yet…
“He told me, but I refused to go with him,” she said honestly. Now, for sreason, she regretted having turned Carlos down
Since Debbie had already declined Carlos’ offer, Gregory didn’t think she would accept his invitation.
“Well, since you want to stay home, I better leave you be. Bye, Debbie.”

“Gregory, did Carlos do something to you after he had seen us together at that restaurant?” On one hand, she was afraid that her petty husband would’ve done something to hurt Gregory.
On the other hand, she sort of knew that he wouldn’t because Gregory was Colleen’s brother.
“No, he didn’t. Carlos is always nice to me,“ he replied. The truth was, when the new semester began, most of the teachers began to pay more attention to him.
They left him with more homework, and made him the class monitor and commissary in charge of literature and art. He was much busier than before.
They had said that they were doing this for his own good, but he didn’t like it at all.
“Great!” Debbie heaved a long sigh of relief.
“By the way, you said
‘but.’ But what? What did you want to tell me?”
Gregory hesitated for a while before answering honestly, “I heard from someone that Carlos was attending the expo with… Portia.”
Debbie couldn’t believe her ears. ‘What?! Portia? That woman again? She is everywhere! ‘
She gulped and asked, “Why Portia?” She hated that woman.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Sorry Debbie, but I don’t know why either. I’m curious too. After all,
Carlos had shut her out from the entertainment circle before. And now he is attending the expo with her. It is really confusing.”
Portia was a college student, and was not related to Carlos in any way.
But he had taken her out as his date a couple of times recently.
Gregory wondered, ‘Is it because Portia is pretty?
But Debbie is more beautiful than her.’
Debbie frowned at his words. ‘Carlos had shut her out before? Why didn’t he tellabout this? Why did he do it? Was it for me?’
“Gregory, I’LL go with you,” she said all of a sudden. She wanted to keep an eye on Portia in case she seduced her husband.
