Carlos joined them.


    When Carlos didn’te home early due to a backlog of work, Tabitha invited Debbie to her room for a


    heart-to-heart talk.


    Looking at the pretty girl, Tabitha said sincerely, “Debbie, I’m going back home tomorrow morning. I’ve


    completely enjoyed our time together for these few days. Before I came here, I was always worried


    about


    Carlos’ck of a social life. You know, he’s not an outgoing man. I didn’t expect that he would find an


    adorable angel like you for a wife.


    I feel much relieved now. Hopefully, you can be strong enough to put up with his odd character and bad


    temper. I know it’s not fair to say so, and you may feel wronged. But I really pray that you and Carlos


    will live happily together. Couples need to learn to give and take, right?”


    Debbie could understand Tabitha. She held her hands and answered, “Mom, rest assured please.


    Carlos treats me well. I’m living a happy life with him. Please don’t worry about us.” Debbie swore to


    herself that she would start to be nicer to Carlos.


    “Thank you so much, Debbie. Now I can rest assured. I’ve urged Carlos to take you to meet our family


    as soon as possible. You’re a good girl, and I believe other family members will be fond of you as well.”


    “Mom Moved by the motherlypassion and unable to hold her emotions anymore, Debbie threw


    herself into Tabitha’s arms.


    Tabitha was so caring, Debbie felt lucky to have a mother-inw Like her.


    “Maybe my own mother wouldn’t have been nicer to me than Tabitha if she hadn’t been taken away


    from me, ‘ she thought to herself.


    When Carlos finally came back home, it was almost midnight.


    Debbie was ashamed of sleeping in when Tabitha was here. So she had gotten up very early this


    morning and gone for a run. After a shopping spree with Tabitha, she then went to meet her friends.


    She was exhausted and went to bed early this evening.


    By the time Carlos came back, she was dead asleep. Quietly, he entered the bedroom, careful not to


    rudely awake her. He approached her stealthily and kissed her on the forehead before he went to the


    bathroom.

    When he walked out of the bathroom, Debbie was sitting on the bed, wrapped by the quilt, ying on


    her phone. On seeing him, she put the phone away, spread her arms, and invited him with a sweet


    smile,


    “Honey, give me a hug.”


    Although he hade in worn out, the bright smile on her face instantly revived him.


    He strode towards her, pulled her into his arms and kissed her affectionately on the lips. After a


    moment, he let go of her and asked in a hoarse voice, “Did I wake you up?”


    Nestled in Carlos’ arms, Debbie shook her head and murmured, “You didn’t wake me up. Hear that


    buzz? Someone sent messages in group chat.”


    Debbie was usually a light sleeper, and the person who had awakened her was none other than Jared.


    He met a girl recently and couldn’t stop posting selfies with her in group chat on WeChat. He just


    wanted to show off.


    Hearing that, Carlos furrowed his eyebrows and reached out to grab her phone to find out who was to


    me. Debbie somewhat unsessfully tried to keep her phone away from him. She was wrapped in


    the sheets, and he could reach across the bed easily.


    Afraid that Carlos might punish Jared again, Debbie immediately grabbed his hand and said in a


    charming manner, “Honey, it’s no big deal. A friend of mine is overexcited about his S.0. Baby, I’m still


    really sleepy, and it’s cold in here. Snuggle?”


    Carlos realized she was covering for someone, so he went along with it.


    He curled his lips, got onto the bed andy down beside his wife. He felt really ufortable now. He


    thought about taking a look at her phone, but somehow it didn’t seem worth the effort.


    Debbie rested her head on his arm and wrapped her arm around his waist.


    A satisfied smile found its way to her face.
