Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 366

Debbie interrupted Hayden. "Hayden, I know what you mean, but I can't." 'I love Carlos. I know he's dead, but I can't fall in love with anyone else, ' she thought to herself.

Actually, Hayden had already steeled himself for this. Every time he tried to get back with Debbie, she would turn him down. After so many times, you just expect it. But you can't blame a guy for trying, right?

For the last few years, Hayden had traveled to and fro between his home city and this country, and Piggy had grown up calling him "Daddy Hayden."

Of course, he hadn't told anyone about Debbie and Piggy. That was her secret to reveal, if she chose to. After all, he was Debbie's ex-boyfriend, and if anyone found out, the rumors would start up again. And the last thing he wanted to do was ruin her reputation.

The next day, Debbie swung by Curtis' house.

She picked up Piggy and then drove to the Alioth Building.

She had asked Hayden whether he could book another restaurant instead. After all, the Shining International Plaza was owned by the ZL Group. But Hayden told her that he planned to buy some things for Piggy in the Shining International Plaza after lunch. So she didn't turn him down out of hand. Hayden was a good guy, and it was not like Debbie was made out of money.

As usual, Debbie wore sunglasses and a hat for her disguise.

At the underground car park, she got out of the car, scooped a sleepy Piggy up in her arms, and entered the elevator.

When she entered the private booth, Hayden was already there, waiting for them. And so were various cold dishes. The smell made her quite hungry.

Upon seeing mother and daughter, Hayden put the documents in his hands aside, stood up and took Piggy from her arms so that Debbie could get situated. "You miss me, Evelyn?"

Hayden believed that the nickname "Piggy" didn't suit the aloof girl at all, so he insisted on calling her "Evelyn" whenever he saw her.

When she saw Hayden, Piggy's eyes snapped open and she gave him a broad smile. "Daddy Hayden! It's been forever!"

Hayden was pretty amazed at Piggy's words. He looked at the little girl and said, "Wow, Evelyn. You're smart! You remember how long it's been?"

She formed a three with her fingers. He knew that meant three months. He had to admit that Piggy was far more intelligent than other children her age—thanks to Carlos' genes.

"Yeah. Daddy Hayden, where?" Piggy blinked her round doe eyes as she looked at Hayden.

Putting her on his lap, Hayden picked up a dessert he had specially ordered for her and put it to her mouth. "I've been busy working. But not today. Today I'm all yours."

Piggy took a small bite of the dessert and said, "Daddy Hayden, Grandma Colleen said...we're moving. With you?"

Hayden gave her a smile and patted her head. Then he turned to Debbie and asked, "Sure you're going back? After what happened last time..."

If Hayden had asked her the same question two days ago, Debbie would have nodded without hesitation. But after recalling Carlos' attitude, she was not so sure anymore. She shook her head and said, "I really don't know. It depends."

Hayden knew what she meant. They had gotten closer since she left the city three years ago. He asked a waiter to serve the main dishes and kept chatting with Debbie's charming daughter.

At lunch, Debbie received a phone call from the private detective she hired. "Miss Nian, I've got some news about James Huo. You free to talk now?"

Debbie cast a glance at Hayden, who was feeding Piggy, and waved her phone. "I have to take this."

"Sure."

Debbie left the room. Piggy was almost full, so she asked Hayden to take her out of the baby chair. He did as he was bidden, and started to eat his own meal.

Just at that moment, his phone rang. It was from his assistant. "Hello? What?!" It was rather shocking news, and commanded his full attention.
