Chapter 1005

I’m actually still very sleepy. I want to go back to bed and sleep for a while Longer.”

Jared casually leaned against the sofa and grumbled, “Tomboy, we’re guests of yours here. Is that how

you would treat your guests? You haven’t even served us tea or coffee or anything yet and you’re

already making us leave! Well, that’s not polite.”

“Fine, get a dollar from my bag and go downstairs and buy yourself a bottle of water. Help yourself to

whatever you want,” Debbie spat as she heaved a yawn.

She was very tired. Even though she and Carlos didn’t really have sex last night, the way he touched,

kissed, and bit her was enough to exhaust her. It seemed like he was still the same lover she had

remembered. In fact, even better. And Debbie didn’t even want to get started on how Carlos kissed her.

Looking at the dark circles under Debbie’s eyes, Sasha said sympathetically, “Debbie, you better rest

for now. Don’t worry. We have something else to do. We should get going.” Then, she broke free from

Jared’s grip and walked up to Debbie. In a hushed voice, she cautioned,

“Debbie, you’re still young. Don’t tire yourself out. Be careful of your health, especially your…” ‘Kidney!’

Sasha didn’t blurt out that last word. Frequent sex could cause kidney deficiency, but since they didn’t

really have sex last night, Sasha stopped her joke midway.

Debbie’s lips twitched.

Jared dragged Sasha to leave the apartment. Debbie returned to her bedroom without seeing her

friends off. As soon as she climbed onto her bed, she fell asleep at once.

On the sixth floor

When Stephanie woke up, it was already past seven o’clock in the morning. After drinking the soup

prepared by the maid, she fixed herself and went to knock on Carlos’ bedroom door.

But no one opened the door. After a few moments, she pushed open the door and heard someone in

the bathroom. She realized that it was probably Carlos.

But something was wrong. She checked the time and it was around 8:00.

Carlos normally jogged in the morning. He would come back around 6:40 and by 7:00, he would

already have taken his shower. So why was he showering so Late?

She caught a glimpse of the tidy bed. That was when she grew suspicious. ‘Didn’t Carlos sleep here

last night? Or did he actually make his bed before going into the shower?”

As she got lost in her thoughts, the sound of the running water suddenly stopped. Stephanie stared at

the bathroom door. Soon, the door flew open.

With a bath towel sloppily hanging over his waist, Carlos walked out the bathroom. When he saw the

woman in his bedroom, he slightly furrowed his brows.

Stephanie snapped out of her trance and explained, “I just came to tell you, last night I…” She stopped

mid-sentence when she noticed an obvious love bite on Carlos’ neck.

‘Love bites!’ Stephanie thought in shock. She struggled to shift her sight past his neck and onto his

arm, only to find hickeys there as well. Her heart sank and her face went pale.

Sensing her gaze on his body, Carlos checked his arm. He remembered that Debbie had deliberately

left love bites there as payback for his torture. Without letting it bother him, he grabbed another clean

towel and wiped his wet hair. Instead of explaining the situation to

Stephanie, he asked her, “Do you have anything important to tell me?”

As an experienced woman who had dealt with difficult situations in business, Stephanie was able to

quickly regain her composure. Taking a deep breath, she collected herself and asked casually, “Last

night-“

“Stephanie,” Carlos interrupted her coldly.

“I hope what happened last night won’t happen again.”

“I’m sorry, Carlos. I know that you are mostly busy. I shouldn’t have—”
