Chapter 755

“Emmett said that he got hurt while he was trying to save… Megan,”

Kasie replied.

“Carlos had asked Emmett not to say a word about it to you. But Emmett slipped it in front of me and I

felt bad about keeping this from you,” she added.

“Megan!

Why is it Megan again?!’ Debbie tried to calm down. She called Carlos immediately, but it was Megan

who answered the phone.

“Where is

Carlos?” Debbie asked, suppressing her anger.

Megan whimpered, “Uncle Carlos is still unconscious. But the doctors said that his situation wasn’t

critical. The bullet has been removed.

He needs to recuperate now.”

“Bullet?! You are saying that is not critical?” Anger and anxiety made

Debbie roar, “He was shot in the arm last time because of you. Where did he get shot this time? Tell

me!”

Megan cried, “Aunt Debbie, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean for this to happen.”

“Stop crying and tell me where he got shot!”

Megan stopped wailing and said, “His shoulder…”

Debbie closed her eyes in pain, too furious to speak. She didn’t know what to say either. She couldn’t

really blame Megan, because her parents had saved Carlos‘ life once.

That afternoon, Debbie bought an air ticket bound for Alorith in the evening.

After spending an hour in the car, ten hours on the plane and another hour in a cab, Debbie dashed

into the hospital.

At the entrance to the inpatient department, Debbie stopped and took a few deep breaths to calm

herself down before climbing up the stairs hauling her Luggage behind her

The VVIP inpatient department was always quiet. So, the whisper of the two nurses in the hallway

could be heard pretty clearly.

“I thought she wasn’t Carlos’ wife.”

“No, she is only his niece.”

“Then, what’s with the hugging? She’s not a child. She should have some boundaries.”

Debbie heard every word. ‘Even strangers know that Megan should keep her distance from Carlos. But

she acts like a little girl around him.

* Too focused on their gossip, the two nurses only nodded to Debbie as she walked past.

Debbie heard the sobs from inside the ward even with the door shut.
