Carlos was amused by the shy and annoyed expression on her face. He bowed his head and kissed


    her forehead softly before whispering,


    “Honey, I’ll go to the hospital with you, but I think I deserve a reward for the trouble.”


    Hearing him call her honey again, Debbie couldn’t help smiling and taunted quietly, “And what reward


    does this child want?”


    “This, of course.” He pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply on the lips. Nothing else could be


    heard anymore in the room except for the heavy breathing of the two.


    Some timeter, Debbie walked out of Carlos’ room again with burning cheeks, looking definitely


    rumpled. She fetched a mask from her bedroom and asked Carlos to put it on.


    Just as they were about to Leave, Debbie reminded him to put on a pair of sunsses too. After that,


    she took a nce at him and decided that everything was finally set now. They Left the vi and


    headed for the hospital.


    Emmett had already made an appointment for them with the doctor. In the consulting room, the doctor


    looked at Carlos’ wound carefully and changed his dressing. It took about two hours toplete the


    process, after which, they left the doctor’s consulting room. Debbie had been under the impression that


    they would be heading back to the vi immediately, but to her surprise, Carlos was holding her hand


    and leading her to the inpatient department.


    “Where are we going?” she asked in confusion.


    “The inpatient department. Megan was hospitalized and is being kept under observation.”


    Hearing Megan’s name, Debbie didn’t respond and just followed him silently.


    Hardly had they reached the door of the ward before they heard the sound of Megan’sughter


    emanating cheerfully from inside, in stark contrast to the hospital’s general ambiance. At that point,


    Debbie noticed an evident smile on her husband’s face, and secretly, made a face in disapproval.


    Walking inside, they noticed that Damon and Wesley were already there.


    Megan was sitting on the edge of the bed, giggling at Damon’s jokes.


    Her eyes brightened when she saw Carlos and Debbie. She ran towards


    Carlos, calling in a cheerful voice, “Ah, Uncle Carlos, Uncle Carlos, you are here. Are you okay? Does


    it still hurt?”


    Seeing her trotting over, Carlos released Debbie’s hand and spread his arms to catch the girl.


    “Mmm, I’m fine. But you be careful. You shouldn’t do anything strenuous right now.”


    “I’m fine too. But Uncle Wesley won’t allow me to Leave the hospital,” the girlined as she buried


    herself in his arms.


    “Now, now, noints. Uncle Wesley is doing that for your own good.” Carlos pulled her out of his


    arms and rebuked her, “Aunt Debbie is here too. I didn’t hear you greet her.”


    As if she had just seen Debbie, Megan put on an embarrassed look and apologized, “Hi, Aunt Debbie.


    I’m sorry. I was too worried about Uncle


    Carlos. He was wounded because of me and I feel so bad about it.”


    Debbie tried hard to suppress the difort in her heart.


    “Don’t.


    Uncle Carlos did the right thing in protecting you. After all, your parents saved his life,” she replied


    tly.
