True Love Waits

Chapter 472 I Owe Her An Apology

Debbie slumped back lazily on the sofa as she watched the news. What Carlos was saying made her tense. She sat up abruptly and focused her full attention on the screen and hung on his every word. He stood there, dashing as ever.

There were no tears on his face, nor did he look sad. However, his words touched every listener. "I lost my memory and oppressed Debbie. Heartbroken, she finally gave up on me and left. During her absence I was miserable and started reflecting on my acts. I'm not proud of what I did, and I regret every bit of it. Even though I want my ex-wife back, I have never cheated on Miss Li, because she was never my girlfriend. After I had lost my memory, she worked with someone else on a scheme against me, posing to be my girlfriend. This was only her role in the scheme that they had concocted together. So she is not the victim here. Debbie is. From three years ago up until this moment, Debbie has been suffering too much because of me."

Debbie gaped in shock and put her hand to her mouth. The tears flowed freely down her cheeks like a broken dam. Then her phone began to ring incessantly from people who were concerned about her, but she hung up without answering each time. How could she possibly speak on the phone in this condition? She had lost all sense of composure and could only hold her bleary eyes fixed to the screen on Carlos. He was clearing her name in front of everybody. He was declaring his love for her to the world. Every word he said warmed her. Once her heart was broken, but now she felt that she was whole again. Unable to contact Debbie on her phone, Ruby ran over to Debbie's office instead. She wanted to tell Debbie to watch the news. But when she walked into the office and stopped to catch her breath, she saw that Debbie was already watching it. Ruby was relieved. She handed Debbie a tissue and consoled her. "Debbie, don't cry, although I feel like crying too. What Mr. Huo said is so touching," Ruby said choking on the words.

Debbie wiped her eyes silently, but it was no use. Each time she did, the tears would just roll down her cheeks again. If Carlos were by her side now, she would hug him tightly and wail in his arms. She would tell him how much she loved him and that her love for him had never stopped and never would.

Carlos went on, "I had loved and treasured Debbie. In the past three years, she was framed and had endured unbearable pain. It's all my fault. I owe her an apology. Debbie, I'm so sorry for everything. From now on, I'll protect you and make sure no harm comes near you. I will remarry Debbie as soon as possible. I hope that I have made my feelings and intentions for Debbie loud and clear. Thank you." The reporters were in a frenzy now and wanted to ask Carlos more questions, but Carlos turned them down.

Just then, Ruby thought of something. She urged Debbie, "Release the proof! Hurry!"

Debbie looked at her bewildered. She remembered that she was going to do something before the news had started but forgot what it was.

'Proof, proof..." "Oh, right!" she remembered.

Quickly she scrolled through the pictures on her phone and found the one she was looking for, and posted it on Weibo. It was her single status certificate proving that ever since she divorced Carlos three years ago, she had remained single and never married Ivan.

Once the photo was out, the rumors were shattered.
