True Love Waits novel Chapter 461

Kasie stared at Ivan, evidently confused by his words. "Why?"

Ivan wrapped his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear, "Mr. Huo has his memories back."

She froze, eyes popped out, her mouth agape. "Really? How do you know? When did this happen?"

"Tonight, at the party. But Carlos, that cunning fox, kept it to himself. He may be waiting for the right time." Ivan didn't know him very well, but from what he could see, Carlos deserved to be seen as a cunning fox, in business and in his private life.

Kasie was still wallowing in the exciting news. "Does Debbie know?" 'Thank God! Maybe she'll finally have something good happen in her life, ' she thought, genuinely happy.

"I think Debbie is still in the dark. Don't tell her. Let's just focus on you and me for right now." Ivan gallantly held the door open to his apartment and let Kasie walk in first.

She felt around the wall for a light switch and turned it on. Being able to see, she searched for a pair of slippers, just like when entering her own home.

Ivan smiled as he watched her behave casually. He wanted her to feel comfortable.

"Why can't I tell her? That's so unfair. She's been hanging on, waiting. I'll give her a call." After shedding her coat, Kasie pulled out her phone to call Debbie.

But Ivan swiftly snatched her phone away from her hand and held onto her with his other arm. Leading her into the living room, he hissed, "No, don't ruin the moment."

Kasie stopped walking and looked at him with a serious look. "Seriously, why are you okay with that?" She thought Ivan must feel something for Debbie. Otherwise, why did he marry her?

Tossing her phone onto the sofa, Ivan pulled her into a hug and kissed her lips.

Kasie couldn't resist his affectionate kiss.

Gradually, the air between them became warmer. He pushed her up against the wall, and his kiss became more passionate. She locked her arms around his neck, like it was the most natural thing in the world.

His lips suddenly left hers, and seductive words came from them. "Kasie, I love you."

The woman who was so smitten with his kiss suddenly snapped back to reality. Her half-closed eyes abruptly opened wide like saucers.

But before she could react, Ivan scooped her up and pushed open the door to his bedroom with his foot.

In a split second, Kasie was lain on his bed, her heart pounding rapidly. Seeing him undoing his tie, she swallowed a bit of saliva and hesitated again. "Ivan, no. Not now. Debbie..."

She still couldn't jump over this issue.

Debbie, marriage... These words were like a curse that halted their relationship, a wall neither of them could climb. Ivan had almost given himself over to passion, and was so close to letting Debbie's secret slip.

Kasie was struggling to sit up but Ivan pinned her down again. "Kasie, listen. It's not what you think. Debbie and I are just friends."

"I know you aren't in love. But let's do this right. Wait until you're divorced." Truth be told, she was so moved to hear his confession of love. She didn't need to hide her true feelings from him anymore.

But she knew that she didn't want to rush into anything either. Especially sex.

However, Ivan didn't think the same way. He wanted her now.

Helpless, his voice thick with passion, he lowered his head to nibble her earlobe and whispered, "Listen!"

"Yes?"

"We're not really married." He blurted out the truth.

"What? How?" That was the last thing she expected to hear. Kasie was stunned for a moment, but then she said with a smile, "No way. Stop kidding around."

He raised his head to stare into her eyes. "I'm not kidding."
