Chapter 706

“Some friend you are! I’ll find Emmett a new girlfriend.” After saying that, she Looked around to look for

Emmett.

But to her surprise, she saw Wesley. She also noted that he was not with Blair, but Megan! Why was

Megan everywhere?

‘Where’s Blair? Why isn’t she here with Wesley?’ Debbie wondered.

She also saw Olga, smiling from ear to ear. Then she spotted Gus with a petite girl with short hair. They

were staring at a watch.

“So Gus isn’t gay…”

Meanwhile, Kasie held Debbie’s arm and said in a whisper, “Really?

Great! When Emmett finds someone new, I can start dating younger guys.

Debbie rolled her eyes and snapped, “Hot for younger guys, huh? How about Jared? He’s in his

twenties..

“No! Stop! I’d rather be with Emmett.”

“Hah!” Debbie Laughed at Kasie’s reaction.

Gregory stood there, listening to the girls banter. To him, Debbie’s laugh was so magical that it Lifted

his mood and warmed his heart.

“Deb!” a familiar voice said, interrupting Kasie and Debbie.

Debbie turned her head to see Hayden, a woman in a gorgeous yellow gown at his side. She was the

daughter of the Hue family, and Hayden’s fiancee.

Debbie greeted him in a polite yet distant manner, “Hi, Mr. Hayden,

Miss Hue.”

Hayden cast a sidelong glance at Carlos, who was surrounded by a group of people, and then looked

at Gregory.

“You’re here with Mr. Smith?” he asked Debbie.

Debbie wanted to nod, but Gregory opened his mouth before she could reply.

“You’ve got to be kidding, Hayden. I could never have the honor to be Debbie’s date on such an

important occasion. We’re old friends from school.”

‘Why is he lying?‘ Debbie was confused. ‘Why not just tell Hayden the truth?’

Hayden gave him a smile and clinked glasses with him. No one knew whether he believed what

Gregory said or not.

Despite his fiancee’s presence, he told Debbie softly, “I was going to ask you to the expo, but

something happened… Please choose whatever you like. It’s on me.”

Hayden’s fiancee cast a burning glance at Debbie. Debbie cried inwardly, ‘What’s he trying to pull? Is

he trying to get her to hate me?’ When Debbie and the woman had last met at a party, she had

destroyed her evening dress with a glass of wine. So she didn’t need a reason to dislike Debbie. And

now her date was trying to make nice with

Debbie. It would come as no surprise to Debbie if she woke up to find this woman holding a knife to her

throat.

Debbie took a deep breath and tried to ease the tension.
