Chapter 1248

“Don’t abandon me, old man.”

“Abandon you?” He was confused.

“I heard a story. A couple were shipwrecked and trapped in a cave. They had no food. To survive, the

boyfriend killed his girlfriend and ate her,” she explained.

The serious expression on her face amused Carlos. He turned to the ocean and replied, “Out there is

the endless ocean. I’m not ready to make you into dinner just yet.”

Debbie contemplated what he said and added, “Yeah, I’d probably be tough and stringy. But if you got

tired of fish—”

A N G E L A ‘s L I B R A R Y

Carlos threw her a glance.

“Well, there is that… And I do like the way you taste,” he said with a far-off Look in his eyes.

Debbie could tell that he was thinking of something dirty, but she wasn’t going to say anything. All it

would do would cause problems, and all they had were each other.

They bantered while they ate. Debbie didn’t like the taste, but she kept stuffing herself. They needed

energy to escape.

By the time they finished eating, it was dark. Debbie lay on the sand, looking at the starry sky.

“Do you think they’ll find us?” she asked.

Sitting beside her, also Looking at the sky, Carlos said firmly, “Oh,

I’ve got good friends. They’ll find us.”

Unless he missed his guess, Wesley would get the idea that something was very wrong.

Debbie rolled on her side and faced Carlos.

“Old man, why don’t we Live here?” Life on this deserted island would be hard, but it would be quiet

and simple. They could set up a little hut, and it would be just like Gilligan’s Island. It would just be her

and Carlos. The more she thought about it, the more she Liked it.

“What about Piggy?” he asked.

Hearing Piggy’s name, she became dispirited.

“I miss her. She’s my baby.”

After a short pause, Carlos asked, “Why didn’t you marry Piggy’s father, Hayden? Why Ivan?”

He could tell Ivan didn’t love her. And they didn’t really act like a married couple.

Debbie looked at him in disbelief. Carlos had asked her the same question Last time before her

wedding. Now she was curious what made him think like that.

“Who told you that?”

That hit him Like a slap. Hayden told him so.

“Eww. What the hell, Carlos?” Debbie lay on her back and fixed her eyes on the sky again.
