Chapter 1034

Not only he, but Stephanie held her breath at the mention of the baby.

She was afraid that Carlos had a baby with this woman.

“The baby…” Debbie almost let slip.

But she really couldn’t tell him the truth right now.

“I stumbled and fell, and then I lost it…” For Piggy’s safety, Debbie would Lie, even if it meant putting

her neck on the line to save the little girl.

Carlos snorted, “You fell on purpose, right? After all, the baby was not mine.”

Debbie realized that Carlos trusted James very much, and he wouldn’t believe whatever she said. In

Carlos’ eyes, she was a shameless, disgusting woman who had betrayed him and Left him while he

was in a coma.

Silence reigned in the office, until Stephanie finally spoke.

Suppressing a mocking smile, she said, “Debbie, I don’t know why you are saying that Uncle James

isn’t Carlos’ dad. Even if it’s true, he is the one who raised Carlos to where he is now. For all practical

purposes, he is Carlos’ dad, and there’s nothing you can do about it.”

“Shut up! You know nothing!” Debbie screamed.

For Carlos, Debbie could swallow her pride. After all, she still loved him and respected him. But who

the hell did Stephanie think she was?

She had no say in this matter. Stephanie didn’t know what Debbie was capable of, if someone dared

rub her the wrong way.

Stephanie had underestimated Debbie. Such a sharp reprimand was simply beyond what she had

expected.

“Debbie!” Carlos warned in a cold voice, fearing Debbie might turn violent at any slight provocation

now.

“Carlos, I’m so disappointed in you,” murmured Debbie, her eyes teary

Pulling out a handkerchief from his pocket, Carlos wiped his brow, as if the white piece of cotton would

magically wipe away the tension building in his head and the air around them. ‘I’m the disappointed

one. I’m so disappointed in you, Debbie!’ he thought.

Stone-faced, he placed an internal call.

Under a minute, Frankie, one of Carlos’ new assistants, knocked at the door.

“See her out,” said Carlos, trying to sound as composed as possible.

The assistant, oblivious to what was happening, greeted Debbie with a polite smile and indicated the

way out.

“This way, Debbie,” he said courteously. But Debbie didn’t move. She Looked Carlos in the eye and

asked, “Carlos, are you sure that you two are getting engaged?”

“Debbie, what do you mean?” At that moment, a man’s stern voice came from outside the office.

Then, James appeared and entered.

Pointing at Debbie, he gloated, “You can do whatever you want, Debbie, but get this from me.

Stephanie will be my daughter-in-Law, and there are no two ways about it. Three years ago, Carlos had

spent his whole fortune on you. Yet you left him while he was in a coma. Now that he is recovered, you

can’t wait to get back together with him. I know what you are after. Just admit it.”

He was implying that Debbie was after Carlos’ money.
