Debbie spent the night at the hospital to keep him company. She had wanted to ask Carlos about the incident of James adding birth control pills in her food. But throughout the night, she couldn’t find a chance to ask him about it.
She had already argued with him over Megan, so she didn’t want to stir up more matters to annoy him. She understood that Carlos must be stuck between a rock and a hard place. After all, it was his own father.

“Wait!” Carlos said and paused the video conference.

“Where are you going? Why are you wearing make-up?” he asked curiously.
“Is she dressed well to meet a man?’ he thought angrily.
Remembering the phone call earlier, Debbie could hardly force a smile.
“Tell you after I cback.”
