Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 178

Then Debbie learned that Carlos was Prof. Marc Dou's student too, which came as a surprise. And Emmett turned out to be Prof. Marc Dou's stepson.

When Emmett was 13, his mom remarried Marc. And Emmett had lived with his mom in the professor's house afterwards.

As Emmett's stepfather, Marc didn't spoil the boy. On the contrary, being an educator, he was strict with him, especially about his education, which turned the rebellious adolescent against him. Emmett vowed that he would never call Marc "Father," nor would he ever use Marc's family name. To this day, Emmett kept his family name Zhong. Therefore, despite being father and son, Emmett and Marc had different family names. That was why the connection between them had never occurred to Debbie.

But as Emmett grew up, he realized that Marc cared about him a lot. When it came to Emmett's marriage, he was even more concerned than Emmett's mom.

He had sent Emmett on more than thirty blind dates within a couple of months. If Emmett hadn't been so busy, Marc would have made it three blind dates a day for him.

When they walked out of the VIP passage for first-class passengers, Carlos took out his phone and called Marc just as he had said. "Prof. Dou, Emmett has been so idle lately he has even started to sabotage my relationship with my wife. If you run out of candidates for his blind dates, I can have Tristan send you the name list of all the socialite divas and rich girls in Y City. You're welcome, Professor. Yes, my wife is with me right now. We're flying to New York. We'll visit you after the New Year. Please send my regards for your wife and wish her a 'Happy New Year!' for me. We're boarding. Bye, Professor."

When the call ended, Carlos turned his phone off.

"Mr. Huo, are you sure you haven't gone too far? Aren't you worried that Emmett might rise in revolt?"

"Not far at all." Carlos had kept his cool in Debbie's presence. If she weren't around, he would have humiliated Emmett with useless errands, just to remind him who was in charge here.

For getting too close to Debbie, Carlos would use every opportunity to put that man in his right place.

Seeing how jealous her husband was, Debbie was lost for words.

On the plane

Since Carlos' private jet was in New York, the mighty CEO had ordered Emmett to charter the entire first-class cabin. Two flight attendants led them through the bar full of refreshments and into the first-class cabin.

Megan had a separate seat with a curtain, while Carlos and Debbie had a private booth with a sliding door that could be locked from inside.

The booth was large enough for the two of them. It was a pleasant surprise for Debbie that she could have some alone time with Carlos on the plane.

Before getting on the plane, she had been troubled. She was thinking, 'What if Megan insists on sitting next to Carlos? Should I go ballistic or put up with it?' Thankfully, she didn't have to worry about it anymore.

Although Megan's seat was near their booth, the privacy of the booth was priceless.

It was twelve hours later that the plane touched down. In New York, it was evening already.

To pick them up from the airport, Carlos had some of his staff from the company offices in New York on standby. After some pleasantries, everyone got in the car.

They went straight to the Huo family's offshore manor.

When they arrived, the gates were wide open, in a traditional Chinese decor, with lanterns on either side, heralding the arrival of the New Year.
