Chapter 1025

The yearning in her eyes amused Carlos. Debbie was very different from other women he had seen

before. Women were always conscious of their figure and were afraid of putting on weight. They

wouldn’t have too much food for supper, nor would they indulge themselves with desserts at this Late

hour.

“Wait for me here,” he said and went into the dessert store.

Standing outside, Debbie looked at the man she loved through the window. Carlos picked up several

cakes with different flavors and put them onto the tray he was holding. Within a few minutes, he strode

out with five or six small cakes inside a paper bag.

He pulled Debbie into his arm. The girls in the store stared enviously at Debbie because she had such

a caring and handsome date.

Unable to hold herself back, Debbie took out a chocolate cake from the bag and began to enjoy it.

She scooped a spoonful of cake and brought it to Carlos’ mouth. He shook his head, but she grumbled,

“You bought so many, I can’t finish all of them. Let’s not waste good cakes. Besides, I will surely gain a

few pounds after eating so much. Come on! Take a bite. Let’s put on weight together.”

Grinning and not knowing how to turn her down, Carlos opened his mouth and ate the cake she was

feeding him with so much love.

Later, when they had just gotten into his car, Carlos’ assistant called him. There was an emergency

meeting he had to attend at the company.

Carlos wanted to take Debbie back home first, but she refused his offer and insisted that she take a

taxi home.

Sighing in defeat, Carlos hailed a taxi for her. He waited until the taxi was out of sight and then turned

around his car and drove towards the company.

At Hilton Group

When he saw Carlos’ car approaching the company entrance, Frankie trotted over. When Carlos got

out, he informed him in a hurry, “Carlos, they are waiting for you.”

“Hmm.” He handed the car keys to Frankie and walked into the building.

Frankie called out hesitantly, “Carlos.”

Carlos turned around and waited for him to continue.

Frankie approached him and whispered near his ear, “We found that someone had been following you

for the past few days. It’s…

Stephanie.”

Carlos furrowed his brows and replied in a cold voice, “I see.”

“Stephanie is following me?’ He was annoyed.

The senior executives and managers of Hilton Group were all sitting in the meeting room, waiting for

Carlos

When he entered, they greeted him. After Carlos sat in his designated seat, James, who was sitting in

the CEO’s chair, began, “Now that everyone is here, let’s begin the meeting.” He Looked around the

table once and then continued, “Milo of the Beckett Group has passed away

Ben Sugden has been responsible for the project that they are handling in co-operation with us.

Gentlemen, let’s discuss what we are going to…”

Two hours later, after the meeting was over, Carlos and James entered the elevator together. James

cast a quick glance at the expressionless

Carlos and asked casually, “Carlos, you didn’t come to the company this afternoon. What were you

doing?”

Carlos’ eyebrows shot up at being questioned.
