Debbie.
However, the bar was so crowded Debbie couldn’t run fast although her physique enabled her to. As soon as they reached downstairs, they were barred by the bodyguards.
But she hadn’t forgotten to resist. She knocked down the first bodyguard that tried to lay his hand on her.
And then the second, and then the third… When she was going to handle the seventh, the bar suddenly became eerily quiet. Debbie had an ominous feeling when a chill crept up her spine. Jared, who was standing opposite Debbie, saw the man behind her. His face twisted with fear. ‘Should I flee for my life? Debbie is his wife. Maybe he wouldn’t harm her even if I left her alone here.’
After knocking the last bodyguard to the ground, Debbie pretended not to sense the person standing behind her and strode towards the entrance of the bar.
“Stop!” came the cold command in a stern voice. Upon hearing Carlos voice, Debbie felt her Limbs go numb.
The other customers all stepped back from the scene, mostly because they all wanted to keep a safe distance from Carlos, the man with an intimidating presence.
“What should we do?” Debbie whispered to Jared who was standing beside her.
‘I wish I knew, ‘ Jared wailed inwardly.
“How about I run and you go appease your husband? You’re his wife after all. I suppose he won’t be too hard on you.”
“No way! Are you ditching me?” Debbie pinched his arm hard. Jared let out a painful scream and jumped in agony with one hand covering the pinched spot.
“Debbie, this man is your husband. He will let you pass after you play cute and sweet. Trust me, men are the same. I’m a man and I know it.”
“Play cute and sweet? Me? Kill me, kill me right now, Debbie cursed internally. She felt that this would be the most difficult thing she ever had to do.
While they were whispering, Carlos came down the stairs husband is arriving. Our Lives depend on you now, buddy,”

Debbie closed her eyes. ‘Okay, I’ll do it. For my friend and myself.
Just this once. It shouldn’t be too difficult.’ After calming herself down, she raised her head and turned around abruptly. She threw herself at Carlos, buried her face in his chest and said, “Mr. Handsome, I feel so dizzy. Who am I? Why am I here? What is this place?”
The onlookers all watched in shock. ‘Ugh…is this playing cute or dumb?’ Jared cried inside, feeling his end was near. ‘What’s happening?’ Carlos wondered.
The thick stench of alcohol from Debbie made him wince in disgust. He shot a grim glance at Jared, who almost lowered his head to the floor, and demanded, “What’s going on? Why is she Like this?”
Jared didn’t dare to lie to Carlos. He looked up and was going to tell him about Bernard, but when he looked around, he noticed that Bernard was long gone. ‘Shit!’ Jared cursed.
“Um, nothing. Tomboy just drank a little. Right, Tomboy?” Jared stressed on her name as a cue for her to respond something.
Taking the hint, Debbie nodded immediately and said, “Yes, yes, I… alas, my head, my head is spinning so fast. Mr. Handsome, can you take me home?”
Carlos didn’t expose her trick. His face was as gloomy as ever. When he carried the woman in his arms, the crowd exclaimed in shock.
