As he began to walk away from the table, Debbie quickly followed him, sliding her arm into his.
“Are you going back to your office?” she asked.
“No, I have to meet with a client at Clouds Road. I can drop you off at school if you’d like.”
“Okay,” Debbie replied.
That evening, after school Debbie dropped by her aunt’s house to bring her some Lipsticks before
heading back to the vi.
“Debbie, this brand is insanely expensive. How can you afford it? Where does the moneye from?”
Lucinda asked. She knew Debbie’s husband was supporting her, but she didn’t know how much he
gave her each month, nor did she know who Debbie’s husband even was.
Debbie grabbed Lucinda’s arm and whispered, “My husband bought these for me, but there are too
many of them. It would be a waste to leave any of them untouched, so I would Like to bring you some.”
“I remember thest time you were here you said that you wanted a divorce. Why are you epting his
gifts?”
Debbie hesitated for a moment and then replied honestly, “I don’t want a divorce anymore. Things are
good between us right now.”
Lucinda took a step back from Debbie to get a better look at her. The girl had changed. She noticed the
moment Debbie had walked in the door.
It was hard to pinpoint what was different from before, but on a closer look, Lucinda figured it out.
“He’s good to you,”
Lucinda said firmly. Debbie used to look rough because she practiced martial arts, but now she looked
put together and very happy. Despite not wearing any makeup, the girl’s skin had a natural glow.
Lucinda only had to nce at Debbie’s clothes to know that they cost a fortune. Flipping up the tag on
her shirt, Lucinda was shocked. The brand was so expensive that even she, an elderly woman with
savings and assets, would hesitate to buy it.
“Aunt, you are remarkable! You can tell that he is good to me just by looking at me.” Debbie’s face
reddened as she attempted to avoid her aunt’s stare.
Noticing that Debbie didn’t deny it, Lucinda let out a sigh of relief and said, “Deb, if you are happy, then
I have nothing to worry about.”

somebody there for her.’ Lucinda was so d.
“Don’t worry, Aunt. I’m very happy now.” Debbie smiled. Although she and Carlos had their
disagreements, he made her happy again afterwards every time.
“Tell me, what does he do for a living? How old is he? Bring him over sometime to have dinner,”
Lucinda said, enthusiastically.
“Okay,” Debbie hesitated.
“He is a 28-year-old CEO. I’ll bring him here to meet you and uncle next time.”
“A 28-year-old CEO?” Lucinda observed. ‘That’s some achievement,
Lucinda thought to herself, amazed. Gail’s father, Sebastian, hadn’t taken over thepany until he
was in his forties.
There were only a few CEOs under thirty in Alorith. Lucinda decided to ask Sebastian about itter.
When Debbie left, Lucinda immediately called Sebastian.
“Where are you?” she asked.
