Chapter 1391

He sighed resignedly.

“Blame you?”

Suppressing her laughter, Debbie pretended to be indifferent.

“Yes, blame me. You’re good at holding grudges. Let go of me. I want to get out.”

The car had arrived at the manor. Debbie got out first. Then Carlos carried the sleeping Piggy out and

caught up to her.

The housemaids grabbed the suitcases and carried them into the villa.

As they walked inside, Debbie gently patted the little girl’s back and said, “Piggy, baby… We’re home.

Wake up. Grandma’s here.”

Miranda knew they were coming home today, so she was waiting at the manor.

Piggy slowly opened her eyes. She Looked at Debbie and swept her gaze around the house with her

sleepy eyes. In a haze, she called out,

“Mommy…” But then, she cradled her dad’s neck and went right to sleep again.

Blame it on the jet lag-the little girl seemed really drowsy. Carlos said, “Let her sleep for a while longer.

I’ll put her to bed upstairs.”

Debbie nodded in agreement.

Miranda asked in a low voice, “How long has she been asleep? If she sleeps now, she’ll be up all

night.”

“A hair over ten minutes,” Debbie said as she changed into her slippers and walked into the Living

room with Miranda.

“Okay then. Let her sleep.”

After tucking his daughter into the quilt in the kids’ room, Carlos came downstairs. He told Miranda,

“Debbie and I aren’t having dinner at home tonight, Mom. Get the chef to cook up something for you

and

Evelyn.”

Miranda nodded and asked casually, “Going out?”

“Tonight is Barlow Aston’s one-hundredth birthday. We’re invited to his party,” he said matter-of-factly.

Debbie looked at him in surprise.

“Hey! You didn’t tell me that.”

“Would you have come if I did?” he retorted.

She was wordless. And he was right. If he had told her about it, she would have just had him drop her

and Evelyn off at her apartment.

“But why are you so sure I’LL go now?”

Ignoring her question, he shifted his gaze to the housemaids standing by.
