Debraâs POV:
Sally and I immediately clamped our mouths shut.
I couldnât believe that Carlos caught us asking the waiter for his number.
The atmosphere became extremely awkward.
Carlos strode to us slowly, his expression unreadable.

I puffed out my chest and denied his accusation without hesitation.
âYouâre sorely mistaken.
I never asked Caleb to buy me a ring.
