True Love Waits novel Chapter 477

'Could this man be any more overbearing?' Debbie shook her head silently. She then wrapped her arms around Carlos' neck and said in an extremely tender voice, "Mr. Huo, it hurts, doesn't it? I had lunch with Kinsley earlier, and now, I just walked arm-in-arm with another man. Imagine how I felt when I watched you kiss Stephanie and get engaged to her."

Carlos realized that she had done all those things to get even with him, just as he had anticipated. The look in his eyes softened. He bowed down his head and kissed her on the lips.

The space inside the car was filled with passion and lust. But Debbie pushed the horny Carlos away and snickered, "Mr. Huo, we should stop here. I got my period today."

Carlos was frustrated. 'She is determined to torture me.'

They rode to the manor to see Piggy. When they arrived, Miranda welcomed them in.

She smiled at Debbie and said, "I just finished reading to her. She fell asleep. Do you want to check on her?"

"Yeah, thanks," Debbie replied.

She pushed the door open without making any noise. The light in Piggy's room had been dimmed to a perfect glimmer. If it were to be too bright, she would have difficulty falling asleep; if it were too dark, she would get scared. The little girl was sound asleep now.

Miranda went to her room to get some sleep. Carlos leaned on the door frame, looking at Debbie and Piggy tenderly.

Before he found out who Piggy really was, he had envied her parents so much. But it turned out that he was her father after all.

He was grateful to Debbie for giving him such a lovely daughter. He wondered when she would forgive him. If she did, the three of them could live together every day. How great that would be, he thought.

Debbie walked over to him and whispered, "I'm sleeping with Piggy. Good night." With that, she shut the door on his face.

He heard the lock click from the inside.

She was avoiding him, he realized.

While he was in the study, Carlos got a call from Frankie. "Mr. Huo, I found out." He had been expecting this call.

"Shoot."

"Miss Nian and Mrs. Miranda Huo had come up with the plan together."

Carlos wasn't surprised.

Frankie continued, "Mr. Wen had a part to play too. They worked together to make Miss Nian marry Ivan. On the one hand, it would stop Ivan's mom from pressuring him to get married and on the other hand, it would make you jealous." Frankie said the last word very cautiously. He paused for a reply.

Carlos closed his laptop and ordered, "Go on."

"There were others involved too. Xavier, Yates, and Curtis." 'So, they all played me, ' Carlos thought, squinting.

At first, the plan had included only Miranda, Ivan, and Debbie. But considering that Carlos was too smart for them, to make sure the plan would go perfectly, Debbie decided to get more people to work with her. So later, she persuaded Yates, Xavier, and Curtis to join her to pull it off.

When Xavier had sent Carlos the picture of Debbie in a wedding dress, it had actually been Debbie's idea.

Since they knew that Debbie and Ivan weren't in love, everyone in the group tried their best to bring Debbie and Carlos back together.

"What was Yates' part in their plan?" Carlos' voice betrayed no emotion.

Frankie coughed to cover his embarrassment before he continued, "Yates and Xavier knew long back that Miss Nian was your ex-wife. That was why they chose to be Piggy's godfathers. They kept the truth from you because they knew that once you and Miss Nian were back together, she would be the one in charge, and they wanted to see you get bullied around by her."

Carlos had always been a proud man and was looked up to by everyone. His friends wondered what it would be like if the powerful Carlos ever became submissive. But Carlos had different plans for the whole lot of them.
