True Love Waits

Chapter 186 I Always Stand By Your Side

"Remember, mum's the word. It all rests on Tomboy's decision. Anyway, I'm just helping them to cover their marriage. And I can't do anything until I get the green light to let everyone know. So I have to pretend that she's my wife, until she says otherwise," explained Emmett.

Kasie finally made a sense of the situation. "So, you mean that everyone thinks you're Tomboy's husband, even though you never said anything. You just let people think what they want, right?" "Exactly." Emmett sighed helplessly. His boss's wife wanted to keep a low profile.

"But still... Why keep it a secret from Hayden Gu? Isn't it better to let him know? If he knew Mr. Huo was Tomboy's husband, he might stop pestering her." Emmett and Kasie continued to walk along the road, engrossed in a talk centered around Carlos and Debbie. She asked, and he felt it was only fair to let her know what was going on. That way, she might not let anything slip either. Carlos wasn't happy with her at the moment, and maybe if she understood more about the situation, then she might even be able to help.

After pondering Kasie's question for a short while, Emmett said, "Maybe Tomboy just didn't bother explaining anything to Mr. Gu."

Emmett had always been impressed by Debbie's unique personality. There were many reasons why. But what impressed him most was her attitude toward the title of "Mrs. Huo." If any other woman were in Debbie's position, they probably would let the whole world know that Carlos was their husband.

But Debbie was different. She had silently kept it a secret for three years, and more surprisingly, she had even wanted to divorce Carlos.

She was actually trill, not a faker, not just trying to attract Carlos' attention. Luckily, Carlos had figured out who she really was and had done everything to win her over. Or else, they probably would have already divorced.

Emmett and Kasie kept carrying on like this until they reached the gate of Kasie's apartment building. Before they bade each other farewell, Emmett tried to call Debbie one last time. To his surprise, the call went through.

Kasie's jaw dropped when she saw how Emmett's face changed all of a sudden. With a pathetic expression on his face, he begged in a feigned sobbing voice, "Mrs. Huo, you have to help me!" "Emmett?" Debbie stifled a yawn, trying to wake up. "What's wrong?" she asked in confusion while rubbing her sleepy eyes. She had just woken up and powered her phone on when Emmett called. Hearing the noise from the bedroom, Carlos guessed that Debbie was finally awake. He put aside his work and walked out of the study, only to find that she was on the phone. Then, he called a housemaid downstairs and asked her to prepare food for Debbie.

"I was only complimenting you, but Mr. Huo got angry with me and intended to send me to D Country. You know there are too many strong men there. What if I get hurt? Mrs. Huo, you know I always give you my full support. I've hidden your marriage from others like you asked. I've even blatantly gone against my boss for your sake. You have to save me!" Emmett exclaimed.
