“I’m sorry, Aunt Debbie. I was wrong.
Could you please let this go? Please, please, I’m sorry.”
“Megan, get up! Why are you kneeling in front of her?” Damon asked angrily. He rushed over and sat
Megan back onto the bed. Wesley pulled the covers back and tucked her in. It was a scene out of a
fairy tale.
Debbie gaped at Megan’s performance. She apuded.
“Megan, I beg you too. Please do be an actress after college. There’s no doubt that you will make
it big.”
“Deb.” With a frown, Carlos stopped her from saying more. He strode to
Debbie’s side and said to the others, “Whether the ident happened because of Debbie’s bad driving
or because of Megan’s provocation, both of them have been hurt equally. So, let’s just move on and
stop talking about this.”
Debbie let out a sigh. This whole thing had been stressful and irritating from the beginning. She didn’t
want to waste more time on
Megan either.
However, Megan acted surprised and cried, “What? Uncle Carlos, I am innocent. How could you
protect a murderer? You know I can’t swim! I would be dead if you hadn’te to save me in time.
How can you let me suffer like this after what my parents had done for you?” Megan got agitated as
she thought about her parents.
“Calm down, Megan. Don’t get too excited,” Damonforted her.
Megan inhaled deeply to steady her breathing. Then she looked at Carlos in the eye and said in a
choked voice, “All I want is an apology. Is that too much to ask? Uncle Carlos, you used to give me
everything I wanted. But now, I can’t even get an apology?”
Carlos wanted to put the whole thing behind him. Besides, he didn’t want to lose his friends over this
matter. He took Debbie into his arms and whispered to her, “Honey, you pushed Megan into the river
after all. And she’s younger than you, isn’t she? Could you just apologize to her?”
Debbie wrenched herself free from his arms and dashed towards the bed.
She tossed the covers away as Megan screamed.
Wesley grabbed Debbie’s arm and pushed her aside forcefully. Luckily,
Carlos followed her and caught her promptly. Debbie bumped into his chest. Carlos embraced her, as
he red at Wesley furiously. He dered in a raised voice, “Wesley, I dare you to touch my wife
again!”
“And now he is protecting me! Who was it that asked me to apologize to
Megan just now? Huh!’
Once again, Debbie squirmed out of Carlos’ arms and yelled at him,

“Save your hypocrisy!” Then she pointed at Damon and Wesley.
“You, and you! You’re both acting in collusion with him. You two y the bad cops and he ys the
good cop, just to make me apologize to her. But guess what? I am not as gullible as you three. Damon,
Carlos, Wesley, you three idiots are all being yed by this venomous, maniptive bitch, and you
don’t even have a clue! I wonder how you became a colonel or a CEO. Damon, if I were Adriana, I
would have left you too.”
The three men’s faces had turned coal ck. Never had a woman given them such a harsh tongue-
lashing in their whole lives.
Debbie took a deep breath and lowered her voice.
“Apologize? No problem!” She walked towards Carlos and grabbed his hand, trying to remove the ring
from his finger.
