With one hand on the doorknob, she took another deep breath and pushed it open.


    Megan was crying in Carlos’ arms. His face was pale. His shoulder was bandaged. One of his hands


    lightly patted the weeping girl in his arms.


    At his bedside were Damon and Zelda.


    Zelda, who was the only one facing the door, saw her first.


    “Mrs. Hilton,” she greeted Debbie in a surprised voice.


    All eyes fell on her at once. Even Megan raised her head to look at

    Debbie with her red, swollen eyes.


    The look of delight was so obvious in Carlos’ eyes when he saw Debbie.


    But then he asked with a frown, “Who told you? Why didn’t you tell me that you wereing back?”


    He had specifically asked Emmett, who was close to Debbie, to not break a word to her. How did she


    know?


    Debbie put her Luggage aside and said sarcastically, “If I had told you that I wasing back, I


    wouldn’t have been able to see this moving scene of your sweet niece crying in your arms and you


    comforting her with so much care. It would have been a pity. Am I interrupting,


    Carlos?”


    Megan stayed in Carlos’ arms, staring at Debbie, who had shown up all of a sudden. As if she had

    *Humph!


    Is this bitch trying to provoke me?’ Debbie thought.

    Zelda also sensed the tension in the room. Seeing Damon leave, she said to Carlos, “Carlos, I’ll go and


    make sure your lunch is prepared on time.”


    And then, there was only Debbie, Carlos, and Megan left in the ward.


    Megan finally came to her senses and got out of Carlos’ embrace quickly and exined anxiously,


    “Aunt Debbie, you have misunderstood me. I was only worried about Uncle Carlos.”


    Debbie’s eyes were fixed on Carlos all the while. Upon hearing Megan’s exnation, she smiled, “I


    didn’t misunderstand anything or anyone.


    How I envy your close rtionship with your uncle Carlos. If only I had such an uncle too..


    “Megan, give us a minute,” Carlos said in a low voice. Megan got up to leave, but Debbie stopped her


    in her tracks.


    “If you Leave, who is gonna take care of your uncle Carlos? I have to study, so I’ll be leaving now.”


    “Aunt Debbie…”


    “Don’t you dare call me that!” Debbie bellowed, draining the color from
