“Please speak to him soon. Thepany is in utter chaos. I didn’t even have time to apany Kasie


    to pick out her wedding dress. My mom had to go with her instead. Because I had to sort out the mess


    Carlos created for me. At times I have been so depressed I wanted to kill myself. Please, Tomboy, call


    him now.” The day Kasie and Ivan went to the bridal shop to pick out a wedding dress, Ivan was just


    about to try on a suit for himself when he got an urgent call and had to rush back to the office.


    Before he left, he called his mom toe to the bridal shop to keep


    Kasiepany. Thankfully, Kasie was understanding, and she didn’tin.


    “Okay, I’ll call him now.” ‘Carlos has gone too far.‘


    Debbie was deep in thought before she finally made the call. The phone rang a couple of times before

    Hit Debbie? Carlos would rather hurt himself than do that.

    “Fine. Call me, ‘Honey.’ Then I‘1l let him off,” Carlos said,promising with a frown.

    “I can’t Let you take the Walker Group from Ivan, so I’ll leave the


    Star Empire and go back to the Walker Group.” Debbie wouldn’t concede
