Chapter 1262

* she thought, shocked.

Suddenly, in a flash of insight, she thought of a possible Link between

James and Stephanie. ‘James tried everything in his power to get

Stephanie and Carlos to tie the knot, and even bought her a house. So if James had an affair with her

mom, then maybe she’s…’ Debbie had a wild guess as she tried to piece everything together

Coming back to her senses, she told the person on the phone, “Dig into

Stephanie’s background. Check for anything suspicious.”

“Yes ma‘am.”

The arrogant Stephanie was a goddess in many people’s eyes. If it turned out that she was just an

illegitimate child of her mother and another man, then things would really heat up.

After ending the phone call with the detective, Debbie then called

Jared back.

“Hi Jared, how’s Sasha? Set a date yet?”

“Hey Tomboy! Damon came by,” Jared said slyly as soon as he picked up the phone, ignoring Debbie’s

questions.

“Okay. And?” Debbie asked in confusion. They were brothers. It would weird if they cut contact.

“We’ve been on the outs for three years. Know why he dropped in?” Jared asked in a mysterious tone.

He sounded happy though. He was on cloud nine, whenever he thought of his brother’s face, and the

fact that he had to eat crow.

“No. Why?” Debbie asked as she walked into the wardrobe and began putting together her outfit. She

felt wonderfully refreshed, so she volunteered to pick up Evelyn and Justus and take them on a play-

date at Carlos’ manor.

She promised Carlos. What was more, he sent her a message this morning to make sure she

remembered.

She had just texted him back, telling him that she was up now. But she hadn’t gotten a reply. He was

probably busy

“Carlos is doing a serious investigation on his dad, leaving no stone unturned. He’ll know everything by

the time that’s done. Damon also asked me about all the rumors. Did you abort your kid? Is Piggy

Carlos daughter? He had a lot of questions.”

Debbie was surprised. So Carlos did keep his promise. He was just the most wonderful man. But she

really wondered about something else. Eyes brimming with tears, she asked, “So what did you tell

him?”

“That he was an idiot. Those rumors were all lies. I said you never cheated on Carlos! I wish you could

have seen the Look on his face. He looked like he had just eaten shit. He didn’t know if he could face

you anymore. Ha-ha…” Jared burst into a fit of laughter.

Debbie Laughed too. But then she let out a long sigh.

“Don’t count

James out yet. He’s a sly old fox. I’ve done my own investigations, too. And when he found out he was

being looked into, he was able to have info hidden and cover his tracks. He laughed it all off when he

was confronted with it.”

Of course, what prompted Debbie to Look into the Link between Stephanie and James was something

Miranda had said. She told Debbie there was something fishy going on there.

“Don’t worry. Maybe Carlos’ not as savvy as James, but he’s way wealthier, and more powerful. If

anyone can dig up dirt on James, it’s him,” Jared said confidently. He had faith in Carlos.
