NovelEnglishAfter a long time, she finally managed to say, “Carlos, what did you hear aboutthat makes you so hostile against me?”
‘What did I hear about you? Are you afraid of being exposed?’ Carlos felt even more disappointed. Without saying a word, he opened a drawer and took out a stack of photos and a sheet of paper in between.
Just with one Look, Debbie knew what the photos were all about and what was on the paper. ‘Now that James began to strike back, I don’t need to hide anything from Carlos, ‘ she thought.
“Carlos, lettell you the truth. It was James who forcedto Leave

Whatever Debbie said, Carlos would not believe. He had been warned.
Besides, Debbie called James by his name, which only made matters worse. ‘She doesn’t show any respect to Dad!’ Thinking of this, he rudely interrupted her.
“Shut up! Enough of that blabber!”
The viciousness in his voice gave Debbie such a real scare that her mouth went dry all of a sudden. ‘I now get the point. In Carlos’ eyes
James is a caring father. I must expose his true colors.‘ So she said,
“Carlos, do you know James is not your biological father?”
Actually, that was new to Carlos. If anyone else had told him that on any other day, he would have believed it. But this, coming from Debbie, was indeed odd. Stranger than fiction.
“Remember what your grandpa told you on his deathbed? I know you may not believe me. But what James did against you and everyone close to you while you were in a coma speaks volumes. No one might have told you what the old man did to the Hilton group. Besides the fact that you cback to a changed leadership in the company, you may not be privy to the acrimony that led to the departure of long-tand trusted employees. Anyway, the losses you’re seeing are just a tip of the iceberg. If you don‘t watch out, that man, James will be your downfall,
I promise you. Oh, by the way, he even took away the company and properties that you gave me.”
Disdain written all over his face, Carlos retorted, “You must be disappointed to hear that Dad cto me and askedto take the CEO’s position back. But I turned him down. As for the company and properties
I gave you, I have a hunch, you cback just to revenge yourself, huh?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at the man in disbelief, Debbie gaped at his cold retort and apparent naivety.
“It’s your decision if you want to trust James, and I don’t care anyway. So let’s just assthat I came here to avenge myself. But this is not because he took away the things you gave me, but because he ruined my life and destroyed our marriage.
For that, I swear, he’ll pay a heavy price!” she roared. Clenching his hand to fist inside his pocket, Carlos answered with a cold expression,
“It was you who wrecked our marriage.”
“For the umpteenth time, get this straight Carlos. I did what I did under duress. When James did a mock funeral for you, had his men abduct
Sasha to blackmail me, and threatenedwith our baby, to coerceinto signing the divorce papers, what should I have done, Carlos?
Should I have agreed to abort our baby? Tell me, Carlos!” Debbie mocked.
“Where’s the baby?” Carlos asked all of a sudden.
