“What?! Why are you so obsessed with sex? Must you always link everything to what you do in bed?” Debbie snapped at him.
He pulled her into his arms, kissed her on the lips and said, “Well, that’s one of the keys to a successful marriage.”
Debbie pushed his hands away and complained, “Stop it!”
“Okay, okay. Is your cheek still hurting?” he asked.
“Not at all. Just go on with your work. I’ll be fine.” She took the ice pack from him and dabbed it on her cheek.

“I’ve finished my work already. Let’s go hnow.” He had planned to teach Lewis a lesson before going back home, but he hadn’t expected
Debbie to chere along with the jackass.
And when they had arrived, he had been distracted by her swollen cheek, which gave Lewis the perfect excuse to get away
In the evening, Carlos and Debbie lazily lay in bed after taking a bath together. He told her their schedule in a couple of days. As the largest shareholder of Orchid Private Club, Debbie would attend an investors’ dinner tomorrow. After that, together with Carlos, she would fly to New York to celebrate New Year with the Hilton family the day after tomorrow.
But Megan would go there too. In the past few years, she had celebrated
New Year with either the Hilton family or Wesley’s family. Both families doted on Megan for her bright and bubbly personality. Other than that, her parents had saved Carlos’ and Wesley’s lives.
Debbie’s heart sank when she heard Megan would celebrate New Year with them.
Watching her carefully, Carlos noticed Debbie’s change of mood. It didn’t take rocket science to tell what was on her mind. In a soft voice, he coaxed her, “Actually, Megan is a good girl. I think there must be smisunderstanding between you and her. Maybe, you could use this opportunity to know her better.”
He understood why Debbie disliked Megan. Megan was wholly dependent on
Carlos and his friends. It was perfectly normal for Debbie, his wife, to feel uncomfortable when she saw another girl invading her space.
But Megan had just cof age. If anything, Carlos planned to send her abroad to study in a few years. Hopefully, that would put Debbie’s worries to an end. If all went well, Megan might as well find a boyfriend there.

Carlos kissed her again.
“Don’t worry. I won’t let anyone cross you, okay?”
Relieved by his promise, Debbie cuddled his neck and said, “You cannot go back on your words. If someone crosses me, I’ll go have fun without you.”
“Without me? How would that be?”
“There are many things I can do. Maybe, I’d even go clubbing with a random handsguy, just to blow away your money. That must be really interesting…Aargh! Carlos, don’t bite my ear!”
“Really? You still have the energy to mess around with another guy? Am
I such an incompetent husband?” Carlos pressed her against the bed, his eyes as dark as ink. A cold shiver ran down her spine as she looked him in the eye. He Looked more menacing than wolf now.
