Debbie realized that Carlos’ words weren’t a joke. She immediately packed her guitar and pulled Kristina’s wrist, who was still standing there. She decided to run away as fast as she could. Before she took her Leave, she grabbed the money in her iron box. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Hearing Emmett revealing her real identity to Carlos, she immediately went ahead.
As the group of bodyguards slowly approached them, Emmett cleared his throat and said, “Carlos, you wife’s name is also Debbie Nelson.”
“What does it have to do with—” Carlos said and halted. Even before he could utter the words “my wife”, his face changed from one expression to another.
The man who just planned to bury Debbie seemed to be trapped in a daze after Learning about her identity.
Carlos’ facial expression changed from indifferent to stunned, then shocked. Never had Emmett seen so many expressions on his boss’ face before. He was both amused and frightened, knowing Carlos would not spare him this time.
Suddenly, Debbie stopped after a few strides. Since her identity had already been revealed, she released Kristina’s wrist, turned around and went back to Carlos. With a fierce face, she said, “I dumped you,
Carlos. Remember to sign the divorce agreement!” She then turned her back and continued walking with Kristina.
With a shaking hand, Carlos pointed to Debbie’s retreating figure. His face couldn’t be painted. He was too angry to utter even a single word.
The girl who he had called a slut and ordered to be buried alive was his wife? This thought kept on playing on his puzzled mind. Because of this, for quite some time, Carlos remained in a daze. He still couldn’t believe what had just happened.
Until finally, he came back to his senses. Immediately, he could only think of kicking Emmett as hard as he could on his leg.
Emmett wailed mournfully. He had known it! He had known this would all come to no good end for him.
“What were you doing? Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Carlos exclaimed in anger. After saying that, he trotted towards his Bentley.
As he got inside, he quickly pressed on the accelerator and left that place.
When the car approached Emmett, he reduced the speed, rolled down the car window and ordered, “You better go to a construction site and carry bricks tomorrow! I don’t want to see your face in the coming year!”
With a mixture of anger and disbelief, he sped up and left Emmett behind.
Hearing his boss’ words, Emmett suddenly forgot the excruciating pain on his leg. Watching the guitar container and iron box left by Debbie and Kristina, he was at a loss whether to Laugh or to cry.
Meanwhile, Debbie and Kristina stopped and sat on a bench at the roadside after running a Long way. They gasped for breaths, unable to talk.
Kristina had been startled by Carlos’ presence and hadn’t heard what
Emmett had told him. There were only three words that kept on repeating in her mind — “bury her alive!”
The very thought made Kristina tremble with fear. She grabbed Debbie’s hand and stammered, “Tomboy, hurry… Take the money… Take the money and run as far as you can. I do not wish to see you buried alive!” Her innocence made Debbie puzzle whether to laugh or get worried. ALL along, Kristina knew Debbie had offended Carlos several times. She also knew that he would, by no means, let her go that easily.
“Since he now Knows who I am, I am positive that he will sign the divorce papers soon. He won’t have to bury me alive anymore, ‘ Debbie thought. ‘Otherwise, how will he be able to divorce me if I am nowhere to be found?’
Without taking into consideration how easy it would be for Carlos, she didn’t realize that he would no Longer need to divorce her if she were buried alive. Automatically, he would be single again in that case.
“He won’t do that. Rest assured. He is not a mean man,” she assured
Kristina. Patting her hand in an attempt to comfort her friend, Debbie wondered what could happen after today’s incident.
