Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 272

The next afternoon, as Debbie drowsily lay next to Carlos, her phone suddenly rang, jarring her awake. She grabbed her phone and saw that it was from an unknown number.

Since Carlos was working on the bed, she didn't want to interrupt him. She got out of bed and walked to the corridor to answer it. "Hello?"

"Hello, is this Mrs. Huo?"

"Yes, who's asking?"

A few minutes later, Debbie returned to the ward and threw a glance at Carlos, who was having a video conference. She silently opened her suitcase and selected a set of light-colored clothes and her cosmetics bag before going into the bathroom to freshen up.

Half an hour later, Carlos saw her come out of the bathroom, wearing delicate make-up. He was about to ask her where she was going, but she paid no attention to him. Without giving him so much as a glance, she grabbed her handbag and walked towards the door.

"Wait!" Carlos said and paused the video conference.

Debbie turned to look at him. "What's up?"

"Where are you going? Why are you wearing make-up?" he asked curiously. 'Is she dressed well to meet a man?' he thought angrily.

Remembering the phone call earlier, Debbie could hardly force a smile. "Tell you after I come back."

Ignoring his glare, she turned around and left.

Debbie arrived at a crowded street in downtown and got out of the car. It was already five minutes later than the agreed time. Entering a cafe, she quickly walked upstairs as per the instructions given by the woman on the phone earlier.

There was only one person sitting at a table on the second floor. She looked quite pretty and was around the same age as Debbie. She was wearing a red dress and a white coat, along with soft flats. She had some light make-up on her face.

As soon as the woman spotted Debbie, she stood up. Debbie noticed the slight baby bump. 'She's indeed pregnant...' Debbie confirmed in her mind.

The woman took the initiative to greet Debbie. "Nice to meet you, Mrs. Huo."

Instead of feeling raged, Debbie was actually amused as she stared at the woman who claimed to be Carlos' mistress. She wondered if all mistresses nowadays were this shameless to blatantly challenge a legal wife. Besides, this woman had played her cards well. Debbie had just returned to Y City the day before, but this woman was able to get wind of the information and had even managed to contact her.

Debbie took a glance at the glass of orange juice on the table and apologized politely, "I'm sorry for being late. I don't think I know you."

"It doesn't matter that you don't know me; Mr. Huo knows me very well," she said outright. As she spoke, she took out a few photos from her handbag. With a smug smile lingering on her lips, she laid them on the table, gesturing for Debbie to sit down.

When Debbie sat down opposite the woman, a waiter came to take her order. But Debbie shooed him away. She wasn't intending to waste much time with this shameless woman. Moreover, she didn't think she could share a conversation with that woman for as long as a cup of coffee's time.

The woman scanned Debbie from head to toe. Trying to hide the envy in her eyes, she collected herself and ridiculed, "I never expected Mrs. Huo to be such an ordinary woman. I heard that you'd gotten married to Mr. Huo three years ago, but you still haven't given birth to his child. Is that true?" While she spoke, she deliberately touched her swollen belly.

Debbie slowly picked up the first photo from the table. It was a picture of the woman holding Carlos' arm as they walked out of a parking lot.

As she examined the photo, Debbie casually replied, "Yes, that's true. I'm still a student. I don't want a child yet, so my husband respects my decision because he cares for me. What about you..." She coldly shifted her gaze to the woman and asked, "You look like you're around thirty. Why did you wait for so long to have a baby? Do you have any unmentionable disease or something like that?"
