have married a powerful man

Politely, she excused, “I’m sorry, but now I have something to talk to

Mr. Gomez about.”

That caught Hayden off guard. For a long time, Debbie had kept him at arm’s Length, and meeting her

here, he hadn’t expected her to take the initiative to talk to him. But he then realized that she was using

him as an excuse.

It was okay by him, anyway. With a smile, he nodded at the people, then held Debbie’s hand and led

her to a quiet place.

When the people were out of sight, Debbie heaved a long sigh of relief.

She really hadn’t anticipated so much attention on her

‘I must warn Carlos against decorating me with faux accolades that make everyone run to me with

unrealistic expectations. This is just crazy she mused.

Lost in thought, she didn’t notice Hayden had placed his right hand tenderly on her waist. Not until he

Lifted off the hand did she realize it. The way he fixed his eyes on her was revealing. Behind his gaze,

she could see his images of regret at chances Lost. Now, she was another man’s wife.

The thought of Debbie moaning under another man in bed was torture to him.

He clenched his fists and asked in a cold voice, “Deb, the assistant gave you all this, huh? If you need

this, I can give you more.”

Hayden had no idea how Emmett managed to make Debbie the largest shareholder of Orchid Private

Club. All the same, he had to admit that the man was really nice to her

Debbie was confused. ‘The assistant? Who? Ah, I get it. He must be referring to Emmett.‘ “Although I

major in Economics and Management, I don’t Like business she said. The only reason she ended up at

the

Economics and Management School was that Carlos had arranged for it, through Philip.

So as not to disappoint Carlos, she had agreed to switch from her preferred course without

complaining. After all, she Lived in dependence on him.

Looking Debbie in the eye, Hayden said in a sad voice, “Deb, what can I do to make you come back to

me?”

“Hayden, I cut your sister’s hair, yet you don’t mind and even confess your love to me. Are you not

afraid that your beloved sister will be mad at you?” Debbie asked as her eyes darted around, looking

for Sasha.

Hayden knew the conflict between Portia and Debbie; his mother had snitched on Debbie to him as

soon as he got back home from a business trip.

“Portia is a willful girl. And you didn’t hurt her. I don’t think it’s a big deal,” said Hayden, making it sound

easy. But staring at him,

Debbie said word for word, “Hayden, I cut your beloved sister’s cherished hair.”

Hayden was amused by her seriousness.

“Deb, I’ve known you for many years. I know what kind of girl you are. You never stirred up trouble.

She must have offended you.” When Debbie was still with Hayden, she had been really nice to Portia.

But neither Hayden nor Portia had treasured

Debbie back then.

Debbie cast a meaningful glance at him. ‘Since when has he trusted me so much?’ But she had to

repeat what she had said before.
