Nevertheless, since Carlos and she were still married, strictly speaking, the old
man was also her grandfather by law. Perhaps, it was a good thing that she had
come to see him after all. Otherwise, she would never have guessed about his
current situation. Turning to the driver, she asked, “Who's taking care of Carlos’
grandfather?’
“Professionals, I hear. He's provided with around-the-clock care,” the driver
explained, squinting as though he were trying to recall.
“Carlos and his parents often come to check on him as well.”
After asking a few more questions, Debbie left the hospital. While waiting outside
for the car, she stretched out her right hand to catch some snowflakes until her
hand went numb with the cold.
Thanks to Emmett making arrangements while she was at the hospital,
Debbie could stay at a place which Carlos owned in New York. At least, just until
she returned back home. It was not until she walked into the room that she
learned the villa was where Carlos Lived whenever he came to New York. A few
personal items could be found neatly propped in their respective places, some
suits in the closet being one of the things which she noticed.
Although Emmett was thoughtful in his actions, it was a pity that
Carlos and Debbie were not meant to be together.
Having flown for more than ten hours, after which she had headed directly to the
hospital, it was no wonder that she felt the exhaustion overcoming her. By the
time she sat on the bed, she did not want to move a single muscle anymore.
However, when it dawned on her that this was not her own bedroom, but
Carlos’, and that she would be sleeping in his bed, she mustered what was left of
her energy and dragged herself into the bathroom. As soon as she finished
taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, she plopped onto the bed and
fell asleep the moment her head touched the pillow.
On the other side of the world, Carlos was still at work in the Hilton
Group.
He was putting aside some finished files, when he saw the text message from
Debbie.
“You didn’t ask,” he replied.
When he had received her message about letting Gail off easily the day before,
he had been at a loss for words. Despite the Lady being the one who was asking
for a divorce, her message felt as though he was the one who wanted to get out
of their marriage. More importantly, where had she gotten the nerve to propose
terms and conditions?
After sending the message, Carlos turned to Emmett and asked in a flat tone,
“How's everything with her in New York?”
“Her? New York?’ For a moment, Emmett was confused as his thoughts were
preoccupied with his work responsibilities. “Oh, right, * he thought suddenly. It
finally occurred to him whom Carlos was asking about.
“After her visit to the hospital, Mrs. Hilton went to the villa on
Mountain Avenue. Right now, she is likely resting in the villa.”

“Postpone everything tomorrow on my schedule,” Carlos said.
