âWhy are you here?â I asked impatiently.
Was he here to ruin my moment with Debra?
Carlos explained, âI didnât know Debra was here.
I just discovered the other sellers that Adam was likely to reach out to, so I came to inform you.
But I didnât know that she would be in your room.
When I saw her and tried to speak to her, she ran away.
â
I growled, wishing I could punch him.

What a fool!
âItâs not easy for her to finally accept me! And you scared her away?â
âWhat?â Carlos grasped the gravity of the situation and begged for mercy.
âIâm really sorry.
I made a mistake!â
His expression turned contemplative and he asked softly, âMaybe you can try to ask her out again?â
I sighed and shook my head.
âI donât think it will be easy.
She has been hurt so much that she is constantly on guard against me.
Her decision to approach me was already a once-in-a-blue-moon occurrence
She wonât come even if I ask her out now.
â
âI see.
â
Carlos bowed his head, a guilty flush on his cheeks.
He paced back and forth anxiously, trying to come up with a solution for the problem at hand when he inadvertently trod upon an object lying on the floor.
âWhatâs this?â Carlos picked it up and read it.
There was a confused expression on his face when he Looked back at me.
âThe moving plan? Why was it on the floor?â
My mind recalled the scene from a moment ago when Debra and I were ki*sing.
âIt accidentally slipped from the desk when I ki*sed Debra.
â
âOkay.
â
After a moment, Carlos asked tentatively, âThis plan seems useless at this point.
Would you Like me to dispose of it for you? Given the present circumstances, it is certain that the plan will require revision, and the Barton family should similarly consider reevaluating their strategy.
â
âWait!â
I stopped Carlos.
I noticed that the file was open.
âDid you open this file?â I demanded.
Carlos shook his head and said, âNo, I just came in.
â
Ny heart sank.
