Chapter 1226

Debbie smiled and asked, “You know I’m head over heels in love with

Carlos, right?”

Kasie nodded. ‘I know. And because you couldn’t have him, you married

Ivan, ‘ she thought.

“Do you think I jump to conclusions?’ Debbie asked.

Kasie said nothing, as she was totally confused.

“So did he kiss you or did you kiss him?” she asked with a smile. ‘If

Ivan kissed Kasie, it means that he’s not gay. But if Kasie kissed him, that’s bad news. I don’t want her

to get hurt.”

“He kissed me…” Kasie answered, Lips trembling.

Her answer made Debbie heave a sigh of relief.

“Thank God! Hey Kasie, if you don’t hate him, date him.

Kasie’s jaw dropped even more. She was well and truly shocked. ‘What the hell? Is she crazy?”

“We’re heading for a divorce, Ivan and I. So if you want him, he’s fair game. I know Emmett would want

to see you happy. I think he’s stilt watching over you.” Kasie might already know it, but Debbie wanted

to make sure she did.

Kasie sighed and murmured, “Sometimes, I dream about him. I’m scared he’d be mad if I found

someone else. We were going to get married.”

Tears welled in her eyes once more.

“I remember that. But he’s gone now.” Debbie could totally relate.

After all, she thought Carlos was dead for three years.

Only Carlos was really still alive. His death was a cruel lie, while

Emmett’s was a crueler reality.

The two women talked for a long time, about everything and nothing. And

Ivan didn’t matter. Kasie was happy that Debbie wasn’t mad at her. ‘I gotta stay away from him till those

two are through, ‘ she told herself.

After talking Like in the old days, they were still as close as they ever were.

The next day, Kasie and Debbie hung out together as if nothing had happened Last night. At the

canteen, they chatted over a meal.

Carlos looked at Debbie and thought, ‘I guess she doesn’t know about

Ivan. I’d better keep my mouth shut. I don*t want her to get hurt.*
