Chapter 367

“Yes, sir.” Quinn took out the checkbook, and began to draft the requested amount.

But Debbie put a hand on the assistant’s pen. She took a deep breath and said, “Thanks, Hayden. But I

don’t need this. It’s my fault.”

As more and more people got involved, Debbie felt bad. She turned to face the parents and their

daughters, ready to apologize. Knowing what she was trying to do, Damon beat her to the punch.

“Someone told me what happened. It’s not Debbie’s fault. There were more than ten of you. Bullying a

girl like that, hardly fair,” he scolded. Carlos had found out the truth and told him about it. Damon wasn’t

afraid to offend any of those so-called important families.

‘What just happened? A few simple words from Damon and Debbie isn’t responsible at all? He even

made her sound like a victim, ‘ the crowd wondered. ‘Can I leave now?’ Debbie mused. She just

wanted this night to be over.

Without giving anyone a chance to retort, Curtis pushed his glasses up and echoed gently, “Is that so?

Debbie, you may leave now since the truth is out. We’ll take care of the issue.”

His words triggered the crowd to look at him, stunned.

On the other hand, Debbie turned to Curtis and hesitantly whispered,

“Mr. Loftus…”

She was aware that the whole thing had started because of her. Thus, she felt responsible.

Just then, Damon’s phone rang. He looked at the screen and muttered,

“Why is Carlos calling now?”

Hearing Carlos’ name turned everyone’s attention to Damon’s phone.

Then as expected, Damon answered the call.

“Hi, Carlos.”

No one knew what Carlos said on the other end, but they saw Damon wave his hand while saying,

“There’s no need to send Wesley for such a trifle. It will be fixed right away. On the other side are

daughters of the Moran family, the Hue family, the Eveque family… Wait. What?

Wesley is already on his way? Okay then.”

Damon gazed at Curtis after hanging the phone up and said, “Carlos asked Wesley to send some

special force here. They’re on their way.”

Carlos’ name alone was frightening enough. More so, knowing that Wesley was rushing here with

some special force… Gosh! No one dared to stand up for their daughter again.

The air inside the room was suddenly heavy with fear. Discarding the questions in his head, Sebastian

told Debbie, “Debbie, Gail was wrong earlier. I apologize for what she did. I’m taking her home now.”

Warmth filled Debbie’s heart as she shook her head.

“Uncle, I’m sorry for troubling you.”

“Debbie, come home for dinner sometime,” intervened Lucinda as she patted Debbie’s hands tenderly.

It was now clear to her that Debbie’s husband was not Hayden. But she was sure Debbie was

connected with

Carlos somehow.

Afraid of Carlos, many parents thought that it was wise to get out of that place before the situation got

uglier. They followed Sebastian’s example and apologized to Debbie for their daughters.
