Chapter 147

Chapter: 148

You know for a fact that I’m currently studying. Who knows, the two of us might even get a di—”Meeting Carlos’ eyes, she swallowed back the word “divorce” and didn’t dare to complete hersentence.

Carlos was holding a glass in one hand with a firm grip. He was now staring at her with fierce eyes as ifhe were going to kill her right that instant if she dared to say that word.

She really couldn’t understand why he hated so much to divorce her.

“Oh for heaven’s sake! Why can’t you just sign the di— Fine, I won’t say the word again. Don’t look atme like that. I’m really serious. Did my father give you a large fortune with the condition that you mustbe my husband your whole life?” She really couldn’t replace another acceptable reason except for this one.

Normally, marriage should be based on love. But she didn’t love him, and she didn’t fancy the idea thathe loved her. ‘Wait, is there a possibility that he fell in love with me?‘ Thinking about this, she couldn’thelp but burst into Laughter.

‘How’s that possible? A rich and powerful man Like Carlos would never fall in love with a boyish girl likeme,“ she mused.

Carlos poured a glass of water, gave it to her and said, “Are you not thirsty? You’ve been talking sincewe arrived.”

“Uh… I am.” She took the glass over and drank all the water with one gulp. All of a sudden, she felthungry. Although there had been lots of delicious dishes prepared at the gathering this evening, shehad no appetite and had barely eaten.

It was past 8 p.m. and she wanted to leave the villa and grab something to eat.

“Carlos, I want to go out to eat something. Are you coming with me?” she invited.

Carlos just looked at her, saying nothing.

She didn’t know what was on his mind and assumed that he didn’t want to. She took out her phone andsaid, “Since you’re not coming with me,

I’m calling my friend to come with me.”

Iho?”

“Jared. I guess he hasn’t eaten anything either.” Before she was able to dial his number, her phone wassnatched away by the man.

Carlos turned off her phone, put it in his pocket and walked towards the gates.

While putting his shoes on, he said, “Grab the car keys. You’re driving.”

“Oh! Okay.” She nodded; for her, it would be a good idea since she knew he had drunk much thisevening.

She drove the BMW cautiously. When she stopped at a red light, she tilted her head and stole a look atthe man who was taking a rest in his seat with his eyes shut.

“Carlos, call your Lawyer now!” she demanded.

Although Carlos had heard Debbie’s words clearly, he didn’t respond, choosing to look out the carwindow instead.

“You are not calling your lawyer? Fine! I’ll call Emmett and ask him to call your lawyer!” Debbie said asshe called out the address book on the vehicle navigation screen

“Without my consent, he won’t call the lawyer.” The man finally opened his mouth to speak.

“Then call him!” she demanded.

“Focus on driving. I’m a man of my word. I won’t rescind my decision.”
