True Love Waits

Chapter 53 They Deceived Me Together

Carlos rubbed his arching brow and swore to himself that he would never divorce Debbie, however hard she was to handle.

"Yes, I admit that she's a wilful girl. But luckily, she doesn't smoke. Nor does she hang out with dubious people." Carlos paused for a moment and then added, "Apart from your brother, Jared." 'Is my brother a dubious fellow in your eyes?' Damon thought to himself.

He couldn't help grinning at Carlos' description of Jared. "You're right. He's not very reliable," commented Damon. Jared, as a rich second generation, had some disreputable associates. And Damon believed it was quite normal.

Wesley, who had finished playing golf, went back to rejoin his friends. He sat down in his seat and said indifferently, "Megan's 18th birthday is coming next month. Where are we going to celebrate her birthday?"

Five years ago, Wesley and Carlos had adopted Megan Lan.

She was an innocent and adorable girl, whom Damon and Curtis had grown quite fond of.

"Since it's Megan's coming-of-age ceremony, we need to make it a grand one. Why don't we celebrate it on her favorite island? We can drink, sing and dance all night long," said Damon.

After some consideration, Carlos offered, "She loves the island in Q City. I'll buy the island for her as a gift and you guys will be in charge of the other affairs."

Damon made a face and exclaimed, "Wow, look at you, Mr. President. The island at least costs hundreds of millions of dollars. You made it sound like you are going to buy groceries at some convenience store If I were a woman, I would do everything I could to make you mine. After all, owning Carlos Huo means owning the world."

Carlos cast a chilly glance at Damon and mocked, "If you were a woman, you would look butt-ugly. No man would fall for you."

Damon, who had always been proud of his handsome face, was enraged by Carlos' mean words. "Carlos Huo, you're just jealous of me and my looks. I'm such a handsome man. If I were a woman, I would be the most beautiful woman in the world. Am I right, Wesley?"

Ignoring Damon's shallow expression, Wesley refilled his and Carlos' glasses. He clinked glasses with Carlos and said, "I'm on a vacation now and I have plenty of time to spare for the party. Don't worry. I'll take care of everything. If I need your help, I'll call Emmett."
