Chapter 1070

“Debbie’s a good girl. I hope you two can get back together. I know

Stephanie’s quite well-connected, but I don’t think you need her help.

She’s not right for you. Marriage is for life, and a good marriage is a happy one. I don’t want you to rush

into things when you don’t know your own heart. Your decisions affect more than just you now. Make

the right one.”

Miranda never beat around the bush. Whether Carlos took her advice or not, she didn’t hold back. In

the end, she added, “Get your company back. If you want, I’ll help you. No strings attached.”

“Aunt Miranda, did Debbie pay you off?” That was the only answer Carlos had for why she would have

told him all that.

Miranda didn’t mind his suspicions. She smiled and explained, “Just remember I only want what’s best

for you.”

That he could trust. Although Miranda was cold, she had treated him well growing up.

“Yeah, I know,” he replied.

“Okay then. I have to let you go. I have some work to do. Bye.”

The office was quiet again. Carlos stared at his phone and thought hard about every word Miranda

said.

She never talked bullshit. Every word of hers had meaning.

He couldn’t help but wonder what on earth happened while he was in a coma.

Why did Debbie hate James so much?

It wasn’t long before Debbie finally understood the consequences of turning Carlos down.

She had already signed a contract as an artist under Star Empire. She was exhilarated, reporting for

the first day of work with a spring in her step and a light heart. And when she rounded a corner in the

wonderfully air-conditioned hallway, that was when she saw Carlos. He was her new boss.

It wasn’t long before all the employees were summoned to a general meeting. Carlos stood up on

stage, a huge screen behind him. He introduced himself, and the new employees, including Debbie,

introduced themselves. After the introductions were out of the way, they got down to expectations.

“All the new artists need to release a new album in two months time,” Carlos demanded.

“Release a new album in two months? Are you nuts? It takes at least six months to produce a quality

album. How can I do that in two?

You are obviously punishing me! I see how it is, taking advantage of your position to make my life hard,

‘ Debbie thought angrily.

Nevertheless, Debbie accepted the challenge. She wouldn’t admit defeat so easily. So she turned

down a lot of other offers and locked herself in her room, concentrating on composing songs and

writing Lyrics.

She Lived every day at full throttle.

Two weeks later, at one night, when Debbie was busy writing lyrics, she got a call from Jared.

“Hey, you busy? You gotta go out with me tonight,” he said playfully.

“I can’t. I need to get this done,” Debbie refused bluntly. She was almost driven crazy by the heavy

workload and her hermit-like existence. She wasn’t really in the mood to hang out with Jared.

“You’ll never guess what I saw tonight,” Jared said again, smiling evilly.
