Chapter 1379

“Please speak to him soon. The company is in utter chaos. I didn’t even have time to accompany Kasie

to pick out her wedding dress. My mom had to go with her instead. Because I had to sort out the mess

Carlos created for me. At times I have been so depressed I wanted to kill myself. Please, Tomboy, call

him now.” The day Kasie and Ivan went to the bridal shop to pick out a wedding dress, Ivan was just

about to try on a suit for himself when he got an urgent call and had to rush back to the office.

Before he left, he called his mom to come to the bridal shop to keep

Debbie rolled her eyes.

“Carlos, this call never happened. Since you’re so stubborn, there’s only one choice left for me.”

“What’s that?”

“I can’t Let you take the Walker Group from Ivan, so I’ll leave the

Star Empire and go back to the Walker Group.” Debbie wouldn’t concede

“You can’t afford the default fine,” he declared calmly.

Debbie smiled.

“No, I can’t. But my ex-husband can. If I want to leave the Star Empire, he’ll support my decision and

help me out. Right,

Carlos?”

Carlos smiled hopelessly in a resigned manner. She knew he cared about her and that she was his

Achilles’ heel.

“How about a kiss, then?” Carlos tried again
