Chapter 161 Every Woman Loves Mr. Huo

"Can we go shopping this afternoon? I want to go back to sleep," Debbie asked Kasie.

"No, we can't. Even Jared, who is the laziest among us, has gotten up. Dixon 'Doctor' and Kristina are already on their way to the Shining International Plaza. You hurry up,"

Kasie urged. "Fine. I'm getting up. Wait for me. By the way, usually, you get up later than me. Why are you so early today?" Debbie mumbled as she sat up.

Kasie giggled shyly. "My boyfriend got a promotion at work. He is coming to Y City tonight. I want to buy him a present to celebrate this milestone."

Speaking of Kasie's boyfriend, Debbie knew little about that guy. The other day Kasie had gotten into a fight with Portia because of him. Debbie had wanted to inquire more about the man, but then she had been too sloshed to even make sense of it.

"When did you get a boyfriend? Why did Portia accuse you of being the other woman? What's the matter?" Debbie put her phone on speaker and started brushing her teeth.

For a while, Kasie was silent before asking, "Can we not talk about it?"

"You know, we're BFFS and BFFs have no secrets. I told you guys about Carlos a long time ago, but none of you believed me. You even thought I was crazy. I had no choice but to stop mentioning it again. So you have to tell me everything too. We can't be friends while using double standards on each other," Debbie declared firmly.
