Otherwise, she wouldn’t have failed time and again to run away from this man.

But it still hurt to hear him talk about her like that to others.

Wesley put out the cigarette and walked to her.

“I was just joking around with Carlos,” he explained with an awkward look on his face.

“Oh,” Blair responded. He knew that she wasn’t convinced, but he didn’t know how to comfort her. Itwas all Carlos’ fault. If he could, he would make that hateful man run a hundred kilometers with atwenty-kilogram Load on his back.

Before Ivan’s wedding, news that the Hilton Group was going to take over the Walker Group wasspread everywhere. Nobody knew why or if it was true.

Only very few people knew that it was all because Carlos was enraged.

So many of them had already suffered under his rage. And it was all for

Debbie.

Ivan was very busy dealing with the issues at hand. It was true that

Carlos was about to buy out the Walker Group.

So while preparing for his wedding, Ivan had to work overtime to cope with the trouble Carlos made forhim.

Numerous times, he cursed himself late at night why he had been dumb enough to have chosenDebbie, out of all the women, for a sham marriage. After all, he had many other female friends tochoose from.

If he hadn’t made the wrong choice, Carlos wouldn’t have been angry with him and giving him a hardtime now.

However, just as he was busy solving problems, Carlos suddenly stopped progressing with thepurchase.

Just as he felt relieved and thought Carlos had let him off the hook,

Ivan found that someone was buying his company’s shares at a high price and selling them low.

Ivan was on the brink of having a nervous breakdown.

He was so miserable and helpless that he had to call Debbie for help.

“Debbie, I raised Carlos’ child for more than a year. Does he have to be so heartless to me?” hecomplained once she answered the phone.

“What’s wrong?” Debbie was puzzled. She knew nothing about Carlos’ recent acts of revenge on Ivan.Ever since that press conference that

Carlos held, she had been swamped with commercials.

Then for the first time in Ivan’s life, he broke down and started confiding in a woman about the crueland callous things another man was doing to his business, which were taking a great toll on him.

Debbie was completely taken by surprise.

“I’m sorry, Ivan. I didn’t know he was doing that. It’s all because of me. I’ll try and talk to him.”
