Chapter 577

“No. Megan got sick, and they were all worried about her, so they dropped it for now,” he replied while

adeptly cracking an egg into a bowl with one hand.

Listening to the sound of whisking eggs, Debbie felt her heart was soaked in bitterness, but she

pretended not to mind.

“I didn’t know you could cook. When did you learn that?”

Carlos paused shortly.

“I’ll cook for you someday soon, okay?”

“No need for that. The servants can cook. By the way, you worked all day. Where are the servants?

Aren’t they supposed to do that?” Debbie’s eyes started tearing up. Carlos was busy every day. She

didn’t have the heart to ask him to do anything for her after work. But right now, another woman was

having him work in the middle of the night.

“Megan didn’t feel well. She wanted to eat the noodles I cooked for her before,” he explained briefly.

“Huh!’ Debbie held back her tears without one more word.

She didn’t know since when she’d always been trying to reign in her temper.

But it was only around Carlos that she would suppress her anger time and again.

“Megan said it was urgent. What is it?”

“I want to go back to Alorith alone tomorrow, she blurted out.

Carlos put down the bowl and chopsticks.

“We’ll only be here for three days. I’ll be finished with work by then. What’s the matter? I gave you a

private villa all to yourself. I promise no one will disturb you there.”

Debbie was conflicted. She appreciated what Carlos had done for her, from the bottom of her heart, but

meanwhile, she couldn’t stand him being nice to other women, even if the woman was his supposed

niece.

Especially a niece who wanted him for herself!

She wanted to be mad, but she also thought she shouldn’t be.

It might make her seem petty.

She wanted to cry, but she didn’t know exactly why she was hurt.

“Okay, can you come back now? I miss you, honey. I can’t sleep without you by my side.”

Carlos missed her too, but the meal wasn’t finished yet. He didn’t like leaving things half done.

“I’ll be back in half an hour.”

The manor was very close to the villa. He could get there in very few minutes. He always finished what

he had started. The noodles would be ready in a dozen minutes.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

“ALL right, bye.”
