“Who?” Ivan was confused.

She turned to look at his profile.

“You. Are you sad?”

“Why would I feel sad?” On the contrary, Ivan was quite happy because

Debbie would have a bright future with Carlos soon.

“Aren’t you sad about getting divorced?”

Ivan finally understood. He smiled and instead of explaining anything to her, he requested, “Call yourparents. Think of an excuse and tell them that you won’t be home tonight.”

“Why?” she asked.

His smile broadened. He could see a bright future with Kasie too.

“I have something to tell you.”

“You can tell me now and then drive me back home.” Kasie had a rough idea of what he wanted to do.

“I think I’m going to need the whole night to say it all.”

She gaped at him, speechless. Did he really take her for a fool?

Nonetheless, she pulled out her phone and called her mother. Putting on a relaxed voice, she said,“Mom, I’m at my friend’s house. I’ve had a bit of wine, so I’ll spend the night here.”

“You drank wine? Which friend? Do I know your friend? Is it a boy or girl?” Mia asked routinely. It wasn’tthe first time that her daughter had stayed overnight at a friend’s house. Each time, Kasie would callher to let her know so she didn’t worry.

“Of course it’s a girl. Mom, when have I stayed overnight with a man?”

Kasie lied, her eyes darting around with guilt. Typically, she would have hung up impatiently after hermother’s string of questions

However, she didn’t dare to now that she was telling her a lie.

Fortunately, Mia couldn’t see her guilty expression, so she agreed.

“Okay. Take care of yourself.”

“Will do. Bye!”

Kasie heaved a sigh of relief as she hung up the phone.

Ivan asked with a smile, “Do you often stay at friends’ houses?”

“Well, sometimes… When my friends and I have a lot of fun. I’ll stay at some friend’s house or replace ahotel myself, and then go back home the next day.” Kasie had quite a lot of friends, from all walks oflife. Apart from doing investment and business, she would go out to have fun with her friends duringmost of her leisure time.

“Sounds like you enjoy playing, just Like Piggy,” Ivan remarked
