Could you please let this go? Please, please, I’m sorry.”
“Megan, get up! Why are you kneeling in front of her?” Damon asked angrily. He rushed over and sat Megan back onto the bed. Wesley pulled the covers back and tucked her in. It was a scene out of a fairy tale.
Debbie gaped at Megan’s performance. She applauded.
“Megan, I beg you too. Please do becan actress after college. There’s no doubt that you will make it big.”

Debbie’s side and said to the others, “Whether the accident happened because of Debbie’s bad driving or because of Megan’s provocation, both of them have been hurt equally. So, let’s just move on and stop talking about this.”
Debbie let out a sigh. This whole thing had been stressful and irritating from the beginning. She didn’t want to waste more ton
Megan either.
However, Megan acted surprised and cried, “What? Uncle Carlos, I am innocent. How could you protect a murderer? You know I can’t swim! I would be dead if you hadn’t cto savein time. How can you letsuffer like this after what my parents had done for you?” Megan got agitated as she thought about her parents.
“Calm down, Megan. Don’t get too excited,” Damon comforted her.
Megan inhaled deeply to steady her breathing. Then she looked at Carlos in the eye and said in a choked voice, “All I want is an apology. Is that too much to ask? Uncle Carlos, you used to give me everything I wanted. But now, I can’t even get an apology?”
Carlos wanted to put the whole thing behind him. Besides, he didn’t want to lose his friends over this matter. He took Debbie into his arms and whispered to her, “Honey, you pushed Megan into the river after all. And she’s younger than you, isn’t she? Could you just apologize to her?”
Debbie wrenched herself free from his arms and dashed towards the bed.
She tossed the covers away as Megan screamed.
Wesley grabbed Debbie’s arm and pushed her aside forcefully. Luckily,
Carlos followed her and caught her promptly. Debbie bumped into his chest. Carlos embraced her, as he glared at Wesley furiously. He declared in a raised voice, “Wesley, I dare you to touch my wife again!”

Megan just now? Huh!’
Once again, Debbie squirmed out of Carlos’ arms and yelled at him,
“Save your hypocrisy!” Then she pointed at Damon and Wesley.
“You, and you! You’re both acting in collusion with him. You two play the bad cops and he plays the good cop, just to makeapologize to her. But guess what? I am not as gullible as you three. Damon, Carlos, Wesley, you three idiots are all being played by this venomous, manipulative bitch, and you
don’t even have a clue! I wonder how you beca colonel or a CEO. Damon, if I were Adriana, I would have left you too.”
The three men’s faces had turned coal black. Never had a woman given them such a harsh tongue- lashing in their whole lives.
Debbie took a deep breath and lowered her voice.
“Apologize? No problem!” She walked towards Carlos and grabbed his hand, trying to remove the ring from his finger.
