Take My Breath Away

Chapter 519 - Mineral Water



Debbie noticed Carlos' move at once. "Stop right there!" she warned. "Since you like beautiful women, why not sleep with her? She's beautiful. Since you're a clean freak, I've checked for you. She's as clean as a whistle."

Carlos soothed her, "I don't like any other woman. I only love you. Honey, I don't fear that you won't remember me. Even if you had amnesia, I'd find a way for you to fall in love with me again just as you did with me. The medicine will harm you and our baby. That's what I'm afraid of."

His remarks were full of genuine concern. He loved her. He really loved her from the bottom of his heart. That was why no matter what she did or how unreasonable she was, he cared about her all the same.

Debbie had always loved Carlos, but now, she loved him even more.

She knew that Tess wasn't the flirtatious type. The girl danced for a living. That was all. She never seduced Carlos. So Debbie wouldn't harm her. She was only using the poor unfortunate girl to teach Carlos a lesson.

"Sleep with her!" Debbie demanded again.

"I won't!" Carlos declared.

"You have to!" Debbie was about to fail to maintain her charade.

"No!"

There were tears in her eyes. Happy tears. "Are you sure you're not going to sleep with her? This is a golden opportunity you might never have again."

"Even if it were the end of the world, even if there was a blade held at my throat, I would never cheat on you. You're the only woman that I'll ever love in this life, in the next life, and forever and ever."

Carlos' expression was the same as he had when he held the press conference to declare his love for Debbie to the world. Tears flowed down Debbie's cheeks.

She tossed the syringe into the bin and ran toward Carlos, throwing herself into his arms. "Honey, I love you so much," she sobbed into his shoulder.

Carlos was relieved when he saw her throw the syringe away. He spread his arms wide and caught her. "I love you too, babe. Don't cry," he said, holding her tightly to him and gently caressing her hair.

"I was only testing you. I had found a hair in the passenger seat of your car. Then you were watching those beautiful women dancing for you. I thought you were having an affair," Debbie explained in tears.

'A hair in the passenger seat?' Carlos thought for a moment, puzzled, and then he remembered something. 'It must have been from Frankie's girlfriend.'

He kissed Debbie's hair and said, "I would never allow another woman to sit in the passenger seat when I'm driving. That seat belongs to you only. Reeve organized those dancers. I didn't know anything about it."

Debbie nodded. "I believe you."

The farce was over. Carlos scooped Debbie up into his arms and carried her toward the door. When he passed Niles, he said coldly, "The woman on the bed is yours."

'Mine?' Niles shook his head. "No, I don't want her. I'm leaving too."

'I'm a decent man. I never fool around, ' he told himself.

The next day, Frankie and his girlfriend visited Debbie.

When she met Frankie's blonde-haired girlfriend, she realized whose hair it was in the passenger seat. Debbie felt terrible about doubting Carlos and wronging him. That evening she was really nice to him.

Afterward, Carlos had the fluid in the syringe analyzed. One day later, when the results had arrived, Dixon approached him stifling his laughter and said, "Mr. Huo, it was mineral water."

Niles had only gone to the hotel to give the syringe to Debbie and to have some fun as well.

Carlos then realized that Debbie and Niles had played him for a fool.

He didn't dare mess with Debbie, but Niles, on the other hand—

Carlos got Dixon to call a number and told him what to say. "Professor Liu, Mr. Huo has discovered that Dr. Niles Li is not good at what he does, and he seems to have too much free time. Mr. Huo suggests that he take some tests, read more books, and write some papers to brush up on his skills."

After that call, nobody saw Niles for a long time. They became curious and called him to see what he was up to. He complained that he had been busy reading, preparing for all kinds of tests, and writing papers. If he didn't do the tasks on time, then he would be punished.

Evelyn was already four years old when her sister Terilynn Huo was born. She was stunned when she saw the baby. She had never known that a newborn baby was so... ugly.

Looking at the baby in Carlos' arms, Evelyn was disappointed. Out of curiosity, she poked her sister with her index finger and said, "Daddy, why didn't you give me a panda sister? Pandas are more beautiful."

"Bwahaha!" Everyone burst out laughing.

Niles looked at her and said, "Evelyn, your daddy is just like a superman. He can give you a panda sister. Ask your daddy and mommy for one."

Upon hearing that, Evelyn turned to her daddy with big pleading eyes. "Daddy, Daddy, can I have a panda sister?"

The others erupted in laughter again. Carlos hugged Evelyn, kissed her forehead and asked, "Evelyn, are you pretty?"

The little girl furrowed her brows and didn't know why her daddy was asking her this, but she nodded. "Yes!"

Carlos explained patiently, "Do you know? When you were born, you looked just like your sister. Wrinkled. But look how pretty you are now. In a few days, your sister will be pretty too. Don't you want a pretty and lovely sister just like you?"

Evelyn propped her right hand against her chin, thinking about it for a moment, and then she said, "I still want a panda."

Carlos was lost for words.

A week later, Evelyn stood by the cradle, looking at her sister with wide eyes.

The baby was indeed much more beautiful now, just as her daddy had said.

"Mommy, she's smiling!" The baby girl's eyes were like two crescent moons when she smiled. Evelyn found her lovely.

Leaning against the headboard, Debbie looked at her baby girl lovingly. "Yes, she's smiling at you. Evelyn, would you like to hold her?"

Evelyn asked, excited, "Can I?"

She had never held a baby before.

"Of course you can." Debbie picked Terilynn Huo up and looked encouragingly at Evelyn.

With her mommy's help, Evelyn held her baby sister for the first time. Although the baby was so small, she was a little heavy for Evelyn, but Evelyn proudly held her little sister in her arms.

Terilynn Huo was babbling while Evelyn held her. "Mommy, what's she saying?" Evelyn wondered.

"She's saying that you're great." Debbie smiled, feeling blessed while gazing at her two beautiful daughters.

Evelyn was delighted to hear that.

When Carlos walked into the ward with the soup he had made, he happened to see Evelyn holding her sister and Debbie squatting down with her hands supporting the baby.

'How fortunate I am to have these three lovely women in my life!' Carlos thought to himself.

"Daddy!" Evelyn called out cheerfully when she saw him.
