Carlos smiled.
“This meeting is very important. I promise I’ll take my medicine as soon as it’s over, okay?”
“No. I want to see you take your medicine right now.”
‘He’s a grown man. Why can’t he take proper care of himself?’
Carlos sighed.

After returning the phone to Ashley, he walked back to his office.
Megan was doing her homework at his desk.
“Did your aunt Debbie call on my phone?” he asked her.
Megan drew back her head in fear and answered honestly, “No, she left you a message. I’m sorry, Uncle Carlos. I didn’t mean to read it. Your phone was right there on the desk. I saw the message accidentally. And
I was worried about you.”
Carlos unplugged his phone silently. Then he said, “The rain has stopped. When you finish your homework, I’ll ask the driver to take you home.”
“ALL right. I’ll need another ten minutes.” Megan continued with her homework.
Looking at her lowered head, Carlos sank into deep thoughts for a moment .
When he cback to his senses, he made a video-call request to
Debbie. It was accepted at once. Debbie had been sitting under a big tree, waiting for his message.
Video chatting had becthe main means by which Carlos and Debbie communicated with each other these past few days.

However, through the camera lens, Debbie could see not only Carlos, but also Megan, who was doing her homework at his desk. Her eyes burned at the sight of the girl, and her cheeks puffed with anger
At that moment, she realized how stupid she had been to ask Carlos to send her abroad so early. Now, she wouldn’t know about it if Megan seduced Carlos again.
She cursed herself a million times. Carlos picked up his phone after taking the pill. That was when he saw Debbie’s unhappy face.
“There was a heavy downpour a while back. It was unsafe to drive, so Megan chere for shelter and to do her homework. She will Leave as soon as she finishes her work.”
Debbie made a face.
“I didn’t ask. Why are you explaining it?” she said, pretending not to care.
“ALL right, Mr. Handsome, why don’t you go hand get srest?”
