Chapter 1107

The man closed the news app and sighed.

Debbie shook her head, joking, “You’re kidding right? I’m nothing compared to you. You shine like the

sun while I’m the glow of a lightbulb.”

Kinsley Fletcher rolled his eyes.

“My brother doesn’t have time for you, so you come to me. You sure know how to use your

connections.”

“I’m flattered. I remember you felt sorry for me when you heard my Life story. So are you gonna help

me or not?”

“Fine, but how do you know I’m in Askor? I just got here. I was still in America this morning,” Kinsley

asked, impressed by Debbie’s information network. He assumed Yates let her know about his

whereabouts.

Debbie replied with a giggle, “I just know. We have a_ special connection.”

“Knock it off! Yates says you’re Carlos’ woman. Carlos will hunt me down if he thinks I’m putting the

moves on you. So don’t even joke about that. Just tell me where you are, and I’ll come over.” Actually,

Yates had discovered who she was long ago. He played things close to the vest, not interested in

getting caught up in their affairs.

“Great. I’ll text you the location. See you later.”

As night fell, Debbie stepped out of the car and ducked into a Chinese restaurant, her head bowed and

face obscured by a mask.

To avoid more gossip, she brought Ruby along.

In a booth, a tall, handsome man was waiting for her. When he saw her, he scratched his grey hair and

complained, “The paparazzi saw me and snapped a few pics. If they see you with me, the rumors will

fly, and dozens of girls’ hearts will be broken.”

Debbie took off the mask and sat opposite him.

“I’m not scared. What are you afraid of?”

“Afraid?” He managed to look affronted. Debbie was sure he was faking it. He lifted his head and

looked down his nose at her.

“I’m a gentleman who would rather die than break someone’s heart,” Kinsley protested, throwing her a

cigarette.

Debbie caught it. But after a quick glance at it, she rolled it across the table at him and said, “No

thanks. I quit.”

She had learned to smoke from Kinsley. For two years, she had lived like a walking zombie. It felt like a

hole had been punched in her chest, and in place of a heart there was only a black void. As she

smoked, she watched the cigarette burn and the smoke waft away into the air, as if her grief floated

away with it. When she found out that

Carlos was alive, she felt alive again and gave up smoking.

“Wow, the power of love.” Kinsley put the cigarette back into the pack.

Debbie ignored his tease. Opening a file on her phone, she said, “Here, that’s my target. If you can

make her fall for you, then my path to Carlos’ heart is clear.”

Kinsley swiped up and down, taking in what he could. When he saw the woman’s name and picture, he

slid Debbie’s phone back to her and replied, “That’s Stephanie. She is like a goddess in the business

world. You must be kidding. Besides, she’s with Carlos now. If Yates is afraid of Carlos, what makes

you think I’ll mess with him?”

‘Yates is afraid of Carlos?’ Debbie thought. ‘Interesting, but unlikely.’ “Yates must have lied to you.

Carlos looks serious and distant, but he’s really just a teddy bear,” Debbie argued. ‘I’ve tussled with him

a Lot. He never hurt me.

All the stories about him being hard and cruel are just fake news, she thought.
