“I just happened to drop by. Come with me. I will buy you a drink and we can have a good talk.”

Megan frowned upon hearing her invitation. But she hid her emotion and smiled again.

“I’d love to. Please come in and wait till I get changed.”

She stepped back from the doorway to allow Debbie to enter. Debbie had had no intentions of going into her house, but then she was curious to know if there would be any of Carlos’ belongings in there, or if she might find some clue regarding their past. She decided to go in and find out.

At the hallway, Megan brought a new pair of slippers for Debbie to put on. After that, they walked into the Living room.

“Wait here,” Megan said indifferently and went straight to her bedroom without giving Debbie a second glance. The fake smile had faded away from her face the moment they had walked in and closed the door behind them. She dropped her pretense since there was nobody else here except the two of them.

Debbie didn’t care about her cold attitude. She stood in the middle of the living room and scanned the space.

The decor was the sort of style most girls would have loved. The walls were painted in pastel hues and pink. Even the furniture was colored in either baby pink or light blue.

Exquisite and rare ornaments were placed on the tables and the cabinets. Everything Looked pricey. But Debbie didn’t find anything strange or special.

Suddenly, a photo frame on the table caught her attention. Curiously

Debbie walked towards it. She stood there and looked at the picture without touching it.

There were three people in the picture-Carlos, Wesley and Megan.

It must have been taken a few years back, judging from the complexion of Carlos’ face. He looked tanned. Besides, he looked much younger in the picture.

Carlos and Wesley were both wearing a set of camouflage clothes. They had a thin smile on their usually calm faces. A short and young Megan stood in between them with a sweet smile, wearing the same camouflage uniform. In the background was a blue sea. It was a warm picture…

Debbie already knew how Carlos looked in camouflage uniform because he had a lot of group pictures of himself and other big shots hanging on the walls of his study in the manor. Those pictures were taken while he was serving in the Special Force.

“That picture was taken five years ago. Uncle Carlos had just fostered me and had been taking care of me for a while at the time.” Megan’s voice came from behind her.

Debbie turned around and saw her wearing a blue, long overcoat. In a sincere tone, Debbie praised as she turned back to look at the picture once again, “It’s a nice photo. Two handsome men and a beautiful mixed girl. Breathtaking.” Debbie couldn’t help but think that if Megan hadn’t fallen in love with Carlos, she would have been fond of this girl too.

Megan remained emotionless even after hearing Debbie’s praise.

“I’m ready,” she said flatly.

They went out together. Megan’s bodyguards followed close behind them and got in another car.

It wasn’t until Megan opened Debbie’s car door that she was shocked to see the other two guys sitting there. After a pause, she climbed into the back seat without a word.

Kasie shot her a cold glance and moved over, and then looked back down at her phone. That showed Megan the proper amount of contempt and disdain Kasie was going for.

Jared was in the driver’s seat, and he turned around to glare at Megan.

“Well, you do have the guts to come along. You think Carlos will back you up so Tomboy won’t do anything to you?” he remarked with sarcasm.

Debbie settled down in the passenger seat. After fastening her seat belt, she grabbed Jared’s head and made him look at the road ahead.
