Chapter 985

Debbie stepped into the elevator holding Harley in her arms. The moment the elevator doors closed,

she wondered if it would be a good idea to stop on the sixth floor and invite Carlos to head downstairs

with her.

After taking a while musing about it, in the end, she realized that she probably wouldn’t have the

courage to even knock on his door, so she headed right over to the first floor.

She went for a stroll around the garden with Harley, but unfortunately, both Carlos and Millie were

nowhere to be seen. This made Debbie feel so downhearted. Even Harley was so down because Millie

wasn’t there to play with him. He kept on spinning around restlessly. Bringing her phone out, Debbie

searched for Carlos’ contact details and was about to dial his number when all of a sudden, a car rolled

up and pulled over close to them.

She realized that it was Carlos’ new Emperor. The driver promptly opened the back door for the

passenger, and Carlos stepped out of the vehicle.

“Old man!” With all enthusiasm, Debbie waved at him as she sat on a bench.

Shifting his gaze over to the woman waving at him and her pet dog,

Carlos politely nodded and paced toward the elevator.

Watching him head straight for the elevator, Debbie ran over to him, with a tight grip on the leash. Of

course, it should go without saying that Harley ran quite fast as well.

“Wait a second!” Debbie called out to him before the elevator doors closed.

Carlos held the elevator for them, As soon as they stepped foot into the elevator, it began ascending.

Upon noticing that Carlos had loosened his tie a bit, “Are you going to come downstairs to take

“Yes,” he briefly answered. That was the reason why he had returned much earlier than he usually did.

“Oh, that’s great. Then, Harley and I will wait for you to get ready.”

“Alright.” He didn’t seem to have any problem with it.

Moments later, the elevator arrived on the sixth floor and the doors slid open. Carlos and Debbie

proceeded to get off one after the other.

With the fingerprint scanner, Carlos opened the door to his apartment.

But before coming in, he recalled that there was someone behind him.

He turned his head to check on them. Both Debbie and Harley had their gazes fixated on him. Given

that he didn’t have it in him to leave them there and keep them waiting outside, he was left with no

other choice but to say, “Come in.”

“Okay, thank you,” she replied gladly. That was exactly what she had been hoping to hear him say.

The second she entered his unit, Debbie was astonished as she discovered that in spite of Living within

the same building, Carlos’ apartment was much too different.

It was significantly more spacious compared to hers, probably about three times as huge.

As soon as Carlos entered the apartment, Millie ran to greet him with excitement. Harley barked at her

as if to complain about being neglected.

Millie then turned back to play with Harley. When the dogs were entertaining each other, Debbie

scanned the room and did a quick observation.

“Isn’t your…girlfriend home?” she asked Carlos, who was taking off his coat.

Every time she spoke of his girlfriend, Debbie felt as if she and
