Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife

Chapter 88 Falling In Love

Carlos continued, "Megan was only twelve at the time and she watched her parents die. The horror was too much for even Wesley and me to bear, let alone for her, who was only a little girl. Stimulated by what had happened in front of her, her asthma had come back. She was taken to hospital soon enough to just save her life. It was a painful day for everyone. She could have died that day..."

Imagining the horrible scene, which was even difficult for a tough guy like Carlos to describe, Debbie immediately felt sympathetic towards Megan.

She now thought that Carlos had done the right thing by saving the girl this time, though he had gotten himself badly wounded.

Debbie banished all the negative feelings in her heart and said, "I'll go check if the doctor has come." Then she turned and walked towards the door.

Carlos didn't stop her. He slowly passed out as Debbie walked down the stairs.

A few minutes later, Debbie came back to the room with the doctor at her heels. As she saw the man lying there, motionless, his eyes closed, her body went stiff with uncontrollable fear. She ran over to the bed to check on him, and she saw that the bed was soaked with the blood from his wounds. "Car...Carlos," she called. Tears welled up in her eyes the minute Carlos' name escaped her lips.

"Wake up! Please don't scare me like this."

She patted his face softly, trying to wake him up. "I'll be good. I'll attend all the classes you've arranged for me. I'll do everything you've asked me to do. Just wake up. Please!" she begged.

Carlos' eyes slowly fluttered open. Looking at the wailing girl by his bedside, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Really?"

Debbie stopped crying and nodded repeatedly. She sighed, relieved to hear his voice. "Yes, I promise. Just don't go passing out on me again, okay?"

The doctor got everything ready for his immediate treatment. "Mr. Huo, I'll stop the bleeding first," he said, swiftly getting to work on Carlos' wounds.

A trace of smile appeared on Carlos' pale face when he looked at Debbie's tear-stained face. "Be a good girl now and don't cry anymore. Wait for me outside, all right?"

To get out of the doctor's way so that he could efficiently do his job without any disturbances, she left the room quietly and waited outside.

Strong feelings surged inside her which she felt she had to share. Too anxious to wait to see her friends in person, Debbie decided to talk to them on the phone right away. She typed a confession into her message box. "I think I have fallen for Carlos Huo."

Kristina was the first to respond. "Isn't that quite normal? He's perfect! Even though I have a boyfriend, I still would love to be with Carlos."

Kristina wouldn't stop talking when it came to Carlos. However, Debbie didn't reply to her statement. There was too much going on in her mind at that moment. She had to spill it all out. She continued to type, "He has arranged a lot of classes for me. Although I don't like any of them, so far I have gone to all the classes. He always has this straight, calm face. When I think of him, I am afraid...but I also feel happy."

Kasie didn't comment, but just nodded at the phone screen. She had always hoped that sparks would fly between Debbie and her husband. It was finally happening.

"He's actually so good to me. He knows what my favorite food is and always asks Julie to cook whatever I like. He knows that I have a huge appetite, but he never complains about me eating too

much or worries about me getting fat. And when we got out, he ordered so much food for me," Debbie went on.

When they dined at Alioth Building the other day, her friends could tell that Carlos treated her preciously.

"It is true that he is cold and condescending, but when we are alone, he is gentle to me."

That text came as a shock to Jared, who found it hard to connect the word 'gentle' to Carlos. 'Gentle? Mr. Huo? What's that like?' This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"He knows that Kasie and Kristina are my good friends, so when he buys VIP cards for me, he never forgets about them."

Kristina and Kasie nodded viciously at that statement. Thanks to Debbie, now each of them had more than ten VIP passes to all kinds of fancy places.

"I got so mad when another woman sat in the passenger seat of his car. I got mad when he stayed in Megan's room for too long. I was so angry when he was good to her."

'Sounds like love to me, ' Jared thought as he read her messages.

"In J City, he had rescued me. I didn't tell him this at the time, but I was really touched by his care for me."

Jared rolled his eyes and thought, 'Women always tend to be grateful to the person who saves them in an emergency.' In Debbie's case, that person was Carlos. There was an infinite possibility of romance between them.

"It pained me so much when I saw him wounded. All my anger vanished in an instant."

'Is Mr. Huo wounded?' everyone wondered when they saw Debbie's message.

"He is my husband, he is handsome and he has the most perfect body. After he found out that I'm his wife, he did everything in my interest. Why am I still hesitant to be intimate with him? Is there something wrong with my head?"

Kasie couldn't hold herself anymore. She typed, "Your head is fine. Maybe you're just frigid in bed."

Debbie's wistfulness was expelled by Kasie's words. She looked at her phone and laughed.

The rest of the group posted the Rolling On The Floor Laughing emojis.

Debbie sent several Crying Face With A Hammer Over The Head emojis and mentioned Kasie in her next text, "You're the one who is frigid in bed." Every time they got down to have sex, she was as eager as he was. But the road always got bumpy. It hadn't yet happened for them, for some reason or the other.

Carlos had managed to control his urge every time things went south or when Debbie wasn't in the mood. His self-control was beyond her imagination. In fact, she was so stunned sometimes that she suspected if he had some physical problem. But since she could clearly feel his erection against her, she knew that was not the case.

Perhaps he truly respected her and didn't want to force her into it.

When she thought of all this, tears filled her eyes again. She turned to look at the closed door beyond which Carlos was lying wounded; she thought of Megan. If only she could beat the hell out of that culprit!

Megan was the reason why her husband was bleeding in bed.

Carlos had told her that Megan's parents had saved his life. So he felt like he owed that girl and was indebted to her.

"Arghhhh!!" Debbie yelled, troubled by all these contradicting thoughts. She stopped crying and pounded the wall fiercely with her fist.

Meanwhile, her friends were still talking to her in the group chat. "Debbie, has something happened to Mr. Huo?" Dixon asked.

"Yes, but it's confidential. Keep it to yourselves, please," she said. Debbie regretted having blurted out Carlos' injury.

She was worried if it would lead to some trouble for Carlos if the news of his injury was leaked. But she also believed that her friends wouldn't betray her.

"Isn't he on a business trip?" Debbie's friends asked in unison. They all knew that Carlos had gone on a business trip two months ago.

"He came back out of the blue. And to my surprise he told me he saw my performance. I wonder how." She mused if he had gone to her school to see the performance.

Yet considering the depth of his injury, it seemed unlikely.

"Tomboy, after watching you dance, I really think that Mr. Huo has done all this for your own good. He has turned you into such an elegant, glowing woman," Kristina said, proudly.

"What?! Elegant and glowing? Really? Are you talking about me? Come on!"

Debbie was surprised that her friends thought of her that way.

Kasie agreed gladly with Kristina on that. She said, "Kris is right. Moreover, your skin is much better now too. Your hands used to be rough and covered in calluses. But the last time I held your hand, it was soft and smooth like silk. And that time in the bathroom, I saw that your skin had become fairer and rosy. I almost drooled all over you."

Debbie blushed at her comments. "Okay, stop! Don't talk about all that stuff with the boys here. Delete it!" Debbie demanded.

Kasie immediately deleted her messages. But Jared posted a Grinning Face emoji and said, "Too late. I already saw it. Tomboy, next time we meet, let's take a bath together. I want to see how good your skin really is."

"Back off! Wait until I tell Carlos about that comment."

Jared was terrified and deleted that message immediately. "My mistake. Please forget that I even said it," he pleaded.
