Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife

Chapter 219 The Truth

As soon as Debbie finished eating, Carlos peeled a banana and handed it to her.

Damon saw this. He looked at Carlos earnestly and said, "Bro, I'd like a banana too."

For the first time since Jared, Damon and Adriana had walked into the ward, Carlos spoke. "Beat it!"

Seeing his brother getting bullied, Jared snorted, "Don't be so bossy. Your wife's here."

The others laughed.

The atmosphere inside the ward was pleasant. Everyone was happy, except Carlos.

"Tell us what happened," Curtis said to Debbie.

The smile on Debbie's face froze when the accident was suddenly brought up. She looked at Carlos. He was confused by her look. "If you have something to say, just say it."

"It's true. I mistook the gas pedal for the brake."

They were rendered speechless by her careless mistake.

Debbie, however, was wondering if her friends would believe her if she told them that Megan was involved in the accident. And Carlos... Would he trust her words?

Luckily, Wesley wasn't in the ward. Among the four, Carlos and Wesley valued Megan the most. If Wesley were there, he would be pissed at her if she told them that the accident was caused by Megan.

'Should I tell them that Megan not only provoked me, but also purposely told Carlos that I had taken birth control pills?'

Debbie pondered silently.

She blamed herself for being too weak. She shouldn't have let Megan get to her so easily. She had learnt her lesson. Even if she decided not to tell the others the truth, she would get back at Megan sooner or later. She promised herself.

Noticing that she was in a bad mood, Colleen patted her hand and said, "It's okay. If you don't feel like talking, just forget about it now. You are fine, that's all that matters."

Adriana chipped in, "Get some rest. When you are ready to talk, Mr. Huo will be here beside you. If there's some problem, I'm sure he'll fix it for you."

Debbie was still silent.

Jared couldn't hold his tongue anymore. "Tomboy, you have never been so hesitant before. What's wrong with you?

" It was true. She used to speak her mind anytime, anywhere. That used to be her trademark.

But now, she couldn't. And it was because of Carlos. She was wondering if he would believe her. If he didn't, then whatever she said would be pointless. And he might even think that she was trying to frame Megan.

When that thought hit Debbie, she forced a smile and said, "This is just the result of me being a bad driver. It's nothing else. Relax, everybody."

They could tell that she was definitely hiding something, but no one forced her to share.

The others left the hospital together after spending some time with her.

Left alone with Carlos, Debbie fell silent once again and slept immediately after.

When she woke up, it was already dark.

The ward was quiet. Debbie was alone. Bored, she stared at the half empty infusion bottle. "Hello? Anybody there?" she shouted after clearing her throat.

Carlos walked in from the next room.

He walked to the bed and pressed the nurse-call button. They were engulfed in complete silence as they waited. Soon after, two nurses walked in and Carlos said, "Bring her dinner."

"Yes, Mr. Huo."

The nurses turned to leave, but Debbie said, "Please wait."

"Yes, Mrs. Huo. What can I do for you?" asked one of the nurses.

"Could you help me get out of bed?"

Since Carlos was standing right beside her, the nurses were confused by her request. They stared at him in search of an answer.

'She is ignoring me completely!' His face clouded over in anger.

"Get out!" he ordered icily.

Seeing his furious face, the nurses fled from them quickly.

"Hey! You scared them away! I need their help!" Debbie complained with a frown.

Carlos walked over to her, rolled the bed up for her, and put a pillow behind her back so that she could lean against it comfortably.

Debbie threw the covers aside impatiently and tried to get out of bed on her own. "Where are you going?" Carlos blocked her way.

"The bathroom! It's urgent. What? You have a problem with that, Mr. Huo?" Debbie yelled. 'If you don't want to be here, then leave! Why the long face? No one forced you to stay!'

Carlos walked around the bed and picked up the infusion bottle. He slowly hung it on the mobile rack.

Debbie wanted to do everything herself, but Carlos refused. He led her towards the bathroom, supporting her with one hand and pushing the rack with the other.

After she was done, Debbie washed her hands and walked out of the bathroom. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

Carlos was waiting at the door. Silently, he escorted her back to the bed, one arm protectively around her waist.

It was unnecessary, but he insisted. So in the end, she was kind of carried back to her bed.

As soon as she sat on the bed, her dinner arrived. It was a huge meal.

Since her hands weren't injured, it never occurred to Debbie to ask Carlos to feed her.

She told the nurses to lay the table for her, and began eating.

However, Carlos was angered because he thought that as her husband, he wasn't being relied upon at all.

He closed his eyes to suppress the anger building inside him. When Debbie finished eating, he sat on the bed and said, "Now, tell me."

Debbie stared at him and asked, "Tell you what?"

"How did you fall into the river?" The car window had been broken. It seemed that she had been smart enough to break the window with the emergency hammer to save herself under the life-threatening

circumstance.

"Where were you when I fell into the river?" she asked as she wiped her mouth and studied his face carefully.

Carlos thought about it. The accident had taken place yesterday afternoon. So he was... "In my office." During the time she had her accident, he hadn't arrived at Orchid Private Club yet. But he was about to leave.

Debbie sneered, "Is it so difficult for you to tell me the truth?" She knew that he had gone to Megan's place and had told her about the examination result as soon as he had left the hospital.

Carlos' brows knitted tightly. He didn't understand what she was talking about. "Have I ever lied to you?"

"You're lying to me NOW!" If he wasn't lying, how would Megan have known that they had gone to the hospital?

"Debbie Nian, why are you trying to push my button? What good does it do you to make me angry?" Carlos lifted her chin and forced her to look at him in the eye.

Debbie wasn't afraid. She brushed his hand away and retorted, "Push your button? How? Are you angry because I exposed your lie?"

Carlos stood up, trying to calm down. "Sleep. We'll talk when you have a better attitude." He started walking towards the door.

"Carlos Huo!" Debbie called from behind him.

Carlos stopped, but didn't turn.

"If I tell you that the accident had something to do with Megan, will you believe me?"

Carlos turned around now. Debbie looked serious. "What do you mean?" he asked with a frown.

"While I was driving, I got a call from Megan. She told me that you went to her place after you left the hospital, and that you told her you were very disappointed in me." Debbie stressed every word and spoke slowly.

"She also said that you told her that you'd realized that she was the one who loved you the most and that you would never leave her. And she was the one who told you about the birth control pills."
