Chapter 558

Year.

Brooks, Wade’s second son, had some health problems and had no sons or daughters.

Lewis, Wade’s third son, was a playboy, and hadn’t gotten married yet.

She really wished that Carlos, son of her youngest son James, could have a baby. But she didn’t want

the baby’s mother to be Debbie.

After Carlos left, Valerie turned off the TV and began to ponder on how she could drive Debbie out of

the Hilton family.

When Debbie woke up again, it was already dark outside. She struggled out of bed and went to the

bathroom to take a bath

Her jaw dropped when she saw herself in the mirror-she was black and blue all over.

‘That asshole!

He was worse than a dog in heat!’ she cursed inwardly.

Despite the anger, she didn’t dare curse him to his face.

The next morning, she didn’t wake up until noon. She readied herself and took a deep breath. ‘Once

more unto the breach, ‘ she thought, echoing the speech in the classic play. She had to steel herself

every time she was together with that family. She went down the stairs to have lunch. Much to her

surprise, no one in the Hilton family was hostile to her.

After Lunch, she went back to her room. ‘Did Valerie decide to make peace with me after I stood up to

her? Thank God. Finally, ‘ she thought .

In the afternoon, Miranda invited her to come along and visit Carlos’ grandpa in the hospital.

Miranda and Debbie had no common interests, so they didn’t chat on the way. The old man was still in

a coma. After that, Miranda asked the driver to send Debbie back to the Hilton family’s manor, and she

herself hailed a taxi and went off to work.

Debbie was really confused. ‘Why did she invite me to visit Grandpa?

I mean, it’s normal to visit him. But it’s not normal for us to visit him together. We barely know each

other.’

Despite the confusion, Debbie didn’t ask Miranda for an answer. She went back home obediently.

When she arrived at the manor, Valerie was taking a stroll with Megan.

They saw Debbie and looked away as if she were invisible. Debbie greeted Valerie out of politeness,

but she didn’t respond.

Debbie went back to the bedroom and felt something was not right. ‘This is weird. It’s like the calm

before the storm. Is Valerie planning something behind my back?’ Debbie mused. And she was right.

After supper, Valerie asked everyone to sit down in the Living room.

She even called Carlos back from work. He wasn’t finished, but he did as she asked anyway.

Since Debbie had been caught seeing Hayden, Carlos had been terribly cool towards her. When he

entered the living room and saw the family waiting for him, he came up to Debbie and sat next to her

naturally.

Since Carlos was now here, Valerie cleared her throat and began,

“Debbie, I heard your academic performance was not good.”
