Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 290

Carlos' words sent a shiver down Portia's spine. Engulfed by fear, she struggled to break free from the bodyguards, and screamed in a hysterical voice, "Mr. Huo, what do you want from me? Let go of me!"

With his eyes shut, Carlos asked casually, "Miss Gu, that's exactly what I should be asking you. What did you want with my wife, huh? What were you thinking, trying to drug my wife and her friend?" With those words, he opened his eyes and shot a sharp glance at the trembling Portia. "You had the guts to lay a finger on my wife! How dare you?!" he shouted between gnashed teeth.

"No, I didn't... I didn't..." Frightened by his icy-cold stare and the dangerous aura, Portia could hardly find her voice. She kept stammering, "I didn't..."

Carlos sneered and ordered to the bodyguards, "Deal with her. Enjoy yourselves."

Knowing that Portia was the daughter of the Gu family, Valerie didn't want her grandson to act rashly just for Debbie's sake. So she tried to persuade him, "Carlos, she's a girl. Don't do this..."

Clutching at her last straw of survival, Portia looked towards Valerie with her teary eyes and pleaded desperately, "Mrs. Valerie Huo, please help me..."

Carlos smirked at his grandmother. "She...is a girl? Then what about my wife and her friend? Aren't they girls too? Grandma, since you have enough mercy to spend on an irrelevant person, why don't you give a little thought to my wife, your own granddaughter-in-law?" he snapped, sounding sarcastic.

Shocked by his strong retort, Valerie took a quick step backwards.

Shifting his gaze back to Portia, he ordered angrily, "Take her out. Now!"

"Yes, Mr. Huo!" the three bodyguards answered together.

In an instant, they forcibly dragged Portia towards the door. Knowing that Carlos was not joking, she struggled to turn her head around and shouted in a panic-stricken voice, "Megan! It was Megan who told me that Debbie would be attending the tea party!"

Caught off guard, Megan's heart skipped a beat.

She had been keeping silent this whole time, afraid that Carlos' white hot rage would be directed towards her. As her name was pointed out, everyone's attention shifted to her.

Meeting Carlos' cold eyes, she shuddered and said in a shaky voice, "Uncle Carlos, no...I had nothing to do with this. I'm not even familiar with Portia. We've only met a few times. How is it even possible for me to collude with her to harm Aunt Debbie?"

Portia broke free from the bodyguards. She madly rushed back to the living room, and pointed at Megan, who was standing close to Valerie for her safety. "It was her! She told me that you were not in Y City that day, and that Debbie would attend the tea party with her friend!" she said to Carlos.

That day, Portia had seen the message which Megan had sent in the WeChat group and instantly had come up with the plan to drug Debbie.

In a fluster, Megan quickly pulled out her phone and walked over to Carlos. She explained, "I just casually sent a message in a WeChat group, saying that Aunt Debbie would be attending the tea party. I didn't personally talk to her, nor did I mean any harm. Uncle Carlos, you can check my chat log."

She nervously tapped the chat log, found her message from that day and showed it to Carlos. Indeed, Megan had only written a few words. It said, "I heard that Mrs. Huo was also invited to the tea party!"

Carlos moved his sharp eyes away from the phone and rested them on Portia once again. "So, your target was Debbie from the beginning, correct?"

Portia repeatedly shook her head, unable to find the words to defend herself. The only thing she could do now was deny everything. Otherwise she would end up being dead by morning.

"Looks like you won't tell me the truth till you see the depths of hell."

He gestured to the bodyguards. Seeing them stride towards her, Portia abruptly collapsed onto the floor as her legs gave out. She said in a low whisper, "I'll say it..." Despair was written all over her face. She decided to spill everything, hoping that Carlos wouldn't punish her by giving her to those bodyguards. She knew what would happen if he did that. She was still a virgin...
