Chapter 989

Stephanie wasn’t very pleased with his tone.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to go with me. But why are you making my decisions for me? Did you even

ask what I wanted? What if I don’t want a manicure anymore? What if I don’t want Megan to go with

me?” Women tend to be capricious. One minute they want one thing, the next, they don’t. Carlos never

tried to communicate with Stephanie. He just decided things for her without a care for what she really

wanted.

Carlos frowned at this but the person he was calling had just answered.

“Hi, Uncle Carlos,” came Megan’s voice.

“Megan, Stephanie’s going to get a manicure. I was going to ask if you could keep her company. I’ll

send the driver over.” Again, Carlos decided for Stephanie.

Stephanie was pissed. She picked up her purse on the sofa and left the apartment with a grim face.

“No problem. My class just ended. I’m about to go home.” Megan sounded upbeat.

Carlos looked at the door closed after Stephanie.

“Okay. Bye.”

After hanging up, Carlos went to the study. There was indeed an international video conference tonight,

but he could easily bow out of it if he wanted to.

Blair was playing with Harley. Debbie took out some food from the freezer and asked her, “How about

“Four dishes? There are only the two of us. Two is enough.” Blair wanted to help her prepare the meal,

but Debbie refused.

Debbie craned her head from the kitchen, giggling, “I forgot to tell you. I have a big appetite.”

“Okay then. I’m not a picky eater. I can’t wait to eat!”

“Okay, four dishes and one yummy soup coming up.” Debbie cooked the soup first. While it was boiling,

she started to prepare the other dishes.

An hour later, dinner was ready. She carried the meal to the table in the dining room.

Blair turned the TV off and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Without giving it much thought, Debbie went to open the door.

When she saw the man’s face, her eyes widened in shock and she shut the door quickly.

“Crap! Wesley is here!‘

Blair was still in the bathroom. Wesley rang the doorbell again impatiently. Debbie wasted no time in

making the emergency call-Carlos.

Carlos was in the middle of the meeting. When Debbie’s call came, he turned the video off and

answered it.

“Old man, hel Debbie said urgently.
