Chapter 607

Carlos flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said indifferently, “It has nothing to do with you.”

Poor at reading moods, Damon consoled Megan, “It’s okay. Debbbie is an odd woman. As far as I

know, she has only a few friends. Besides, our

Megan is so adorable. I can’t see how anyone could not Like you. Don’t think about it too much.” He

stroked her hair gently.

But the comments rubbed two of his friends the wrong way. Carlos looked at him with burning eyes and

asked, “Who is the odd woman? I dare you to repeat it.”

Gruffly, Curtis snatched the glass of wine from Damon’s hand, poured the wine into his own glass, and

snapped, “Boy, you have the nerve to speak ill of Debbie before Carlos! Try that one more time, and I

swear, he’ll beat the crap out of you!”

Instantly, Damon regretted his mistake. Why would he cross Carlos? To make up for his error, he went

to the wine cabinet and brought the other glasses of wine that Curtis had poured for them.

“I’m sorry,

Carlos. You know how clumsy I sometimes get in expressing myself. Guys, let’s forget that dry joke and

drink.”

They clinked glasses and settled down to some chitchat.

Turning to Curtis, Carlos asked, “I’ve already gone through all the formalities for Debbie to study

abroad. How about you?”

But Curtis, somewhat not in favor of the idea, made an incredulous face and asked, “You want her to

go there alone?”

Stubbing out the cigarette, Carlos shook his head.

“No.”

Although he was mad at Debbie for her refusal to have his baby and her insistence on taking birth

control pills, he didn’t want to have her study abroad alone.

While the men were chatting, Megan went to the bathroom, inserted an anonymous SIM card into her

phone, and dialed a number.

When she came back to Carlos’ office, the men were almost off, heading to the Orchid Private Club

together.

Wesley was the first to notice something was not right with Megan.

“You look pale. What’s wrong?” he asked.

Megan was startled to see everyone staring at her with curious eyes.

Flustered, she looked away and covered her face with both palms.

“Nothing. I’m perfectly okay…”

Since she Looked calmer and more composed when she dropped her hands, no one around bothered

to press further. Briefly, Carlos consulted with his secretary about some work related issues, and then

they all left the Hilton Group’s offices together.

They had hardly left the building when the employees began to gossip about them.

“I envy Megan so much. Lucky girl! She’s surrounded by some of the finest eligible bachelors all the

time.”

“Now, she’s in the company of not one, not two, but four high-class men, everyone eager to please her.

How Lucky of her!”
