‘No? Did I guess wrong?’ Debbie let out a deep sigh.


    But she had no time to think more about Carlos’ strange behavior. When she saw Carlos unwrapping


    the gift box brought to him by her and Ivan, she quickly tried to stop him.


    “Carlos, wait! You might want to wait till you’re alone.”


    Her words fell on his deaf ears. He untied the blue ribbons and tore the wrapping paper from the box.

    It was then that Stephanie finally found her chance to cut in.


    “This has gone far enough, Carlos!”


    Reminded of her presence, Carlos slightly tilted his head and cast her a cold stare.


    “Newssh: we’re done. You were just a pawn I used to get back at Debbie.”


    ALL the other people were dumbfounded. They gave Carlos a thumbs-up in their mind. ‘That’s some


    serious chutzpah. Way to go, Carlos!”


    Humiliated, Stephanie blushed in anger. She pointed at Carlos, yelling in a trembling voice, “Carlos…


    You You asshole!”

    As he went on to unwrap the present, he questioned casually without looking at her, “You jumped at the


    chance to be my girlfriend right when I emerged from mya. James even arranged it for you,


    ruining my life to do so. Who’s the asshole again?”


    Feeling a little guilty, Stephanie couldn’t find the words to form a retort. He wasn’t wrong. Meanwhile,


    she sensed something was very wrong with Carlos. She didn’t bbor the point-all she’d do was


    humiliate herself. This was not the right time. So she grabbed her handbag and stormed out of the


    private room without another word.


    Carlos finally opened the box and moved the crepe paper aside to reveal his gift. He held it up for


    everyone to see. The guests Looked at the present in his hands, eyes wide in surprise. It was men’s


    underwear, and specifically, men’s triangle briefs.


    More surprisingly, there was a cute bowknot on the stic waistband.


    “Bwahaha…” Damon was the first to break the silence with a fit ofughter. He couldn’t believe his


    eyes. What a weird woman! How could she give Carlos something Like that?


    Niles was the next to start guffawing. He gave a thumbs-up to Debbie whose face was red from


    embarrassment.


    Xavier and Yates also started chuckling uncontrobly.


    Even Wesley, the serious colonel, grinned from ear to ear and watched the show with keen interest.


    They thought that the manly Carlos might get angry when he saw this


    But much to their surprise, he wasn’t pissed. Instead, he carefully put the underwear back to the box


    and put it aside.


    Then, he straightened his clothes and said calmly, “I need a cigarette.


    Have fun.”


    With that, he made his way to the balcony overlooking the golf course, ignoring everyone’s confused


    gaze.


    They exchanged curious nces with each other, unable to understand


    Carlos’ behavior tonight.
