Chapter 494: Payback

Ever since Debbie knew Carlos' memory had returned, she refused to have sex with him. When Debbie said, "He's my husband. We count on each other", Carlos was greatly comforted by her words.         

"Pfft! Your husband? You and Carlos haven't even remarried yet. What a trollop you are to say that! If he loved you, why hasn't he married you yet?" By now, James had figured out that Carlos had fully regained his memory.     

Debbie flashed a smile at him. "It's not that he doesn't want to marry me. He carries the divorce certificate and residence booklet around with him every day, just in case I agree to marry him. Your daughter tried everything to get this man, and yet I'm still considering whether or not to give him a second chance."     

Her words had amused Carlos. 'When did she find out about that?' he wondered.     

Everyone that was present in the operating room exchanged glances with each other. They couldn't believe their ears and looked at Carlos who was still smiling. They were all aware that he was one of the wealthiest men in the world. 'Since when did Carlos Huo have to try so hard to get a woman?' they all wondered.     

No longer in the mood to waste time speaking to James, Debbie cast a glance at the bodyguards. Taking the hint, they grabbed James by the shoulders and forced him to kneel down on the broken glass.     

"Argh!" His scream pierced the air in the operating room.     

Most of the broken glass cut cruelly into his flesh and embedded into his skin. His face was now as pale as Stephanie's.     

Carlos ignored his screams of pain and took Debbie into his arms, whispering in her ear, "Honey, there are so many of them watching. It'll be so humiliating if you still reject me. Let's remarry tomorrow and make them all jealous, okay?"     

Debbie rolled her eyes at him. 'You think just because my tone softened I would agree to marry you now? Yeah right! You wish.' So she said softly, "I just need some more time."     

Carlos was deeply disappointed     

and frustrated. Chasing Debbie was the most difficult task he ever had to do.     

James didn't have much time to make his decision. Carlos nodded to the doctors, and they picked up the scalpels and were about to begin the surgery. James couldn't bear to watch. He gritted his teeth and bowed his head. "Debbie, Carlos, I'm sorry. Please let my daughter go." Meanwhile he thought to himself, 'Screw you, Carlos Huo! You had your memory back and found out that Stephanie was my daughter a long time ago!'     

Debbie shook her head and said through clenched teeth, "What kind of apology is that? Not sincere enough!"     

James turned his head to look at Stephanie, who was lying on the hospital bed expressionless. From the very start, she had never said a word to him nor in his defense, but still, James apologized again humbly, "Carlos, Debbie, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done those terrible things to you years ago."     

Debbie felt much relief to finally hear those words coming from him. She had waited a long time for them.     

Then she noticed Stephanie just lying there nonchalantly. Debbie shook her head in disapproval. 'While her father is apologizing on his knees for his daughter's sake, she is acting as if she doesn't give a damn.     

Like father like daughter. They're both heartless, ' Debbie thought.     

"Where is that woman?" Carlos demanded.     

"Stephanie, tell them," James urged.     

But Stephanie lay there with her eyes closed as if she was sleeping.     

'Acting defiant?' Carlos thought. He sneered and told the bodyguards, "Get them out of the room. Leave the doctors to do their work."     

The bodyguards hauled Glenda and James out of the operating room. Glenda was weak as a leaf and never stopped crying, whereas James' pants were drenched in blood.     

While the doctors operated on Stephanie, Carlos and Debbie left the hospital. The bodyguards stood guarding the operating room in case James and Glenda tried to barge in to save their daughter.     

Sitting on the bench listlessly in the hallway, James peered around the corner. There were a couple of cameras in the hallway, but neither of them seemed to be working. He assumed that Carlos had sabotaged them beforehand.     

Glenda grabbed his arm and asked tearfully, "What should we do? Our daughter is still in there. We must save her."         

James patted her hand to comfort her, and then he called one of his men to pick them up from the hospital. Once they were inside the car, he texted someone. "One billion for killing Carlos Huo, half a billion for killing Debbie Nian, 100 million for bringing their daughter to me!" he promised in the message.     

"James, let's get Stephanie and get out of here. We can't beat Carlos Huo. We have plenty of money. Let's leave Y City." Glenda was scared. Carlos was too cruel.     

He made them watch as he tortured their daughter. They could do nothing and were helpless to save her.     

A venomous light flitted across James' eyes. "He took one of my daughter's kidneys. I'm going to take both of his daughter's!"     

Glenda was shocked. 'Carlos' daughter? She's only a three-year-old little girl.'     

On the way home, Carlos was busy speaking on the phone. He had James closely watched. Wherever that evil man went, he was tailed.     

Carlos figured out what James might do next.     

He wanted to give his daughter a normal upbringing, so he let Evelyn continue to go to the kindergarten. All the cars used to pick her up had been refitted to be bulletproof. Many bodyguards in casual clothes were arranged around the kindergarten whenever Evelyn was there.     

Thinking of Evelyn's safety, Carlos realized that he had to take care of James as soon as possible.     

He asked Frankie to set up an emergency meeting the next afternoon. All the high-ranking executives of ZL Group were requested to be present.     

"Time for Dixon and the others to come back," he told Frankie.     

Debbie had been deep in thought in the car. Upon hearing Dixon's name, she sat up immediately, and her eyes lit up. "Dixon is coming back?"     

"Yeah. He's capable enough to undertake some tasks now. I can use his help." Soldiers were trained to be used in a time of crisis. Carlos believed that Dixon wouldn't let him down.     

"When is he arriving? I want to pick him up at the airport." Among Debbie's friends, Dixon had been apart from her for the longest.     

Kristina had been out of touch. Debbie and Kasie had tried to call her the other day, but her phone number wasn't in service anymore.     

Seeing how excited Debbie was, Carlos wasn't happy. He squeezed her hand as a warning and asked, "You're very happy to see him?"     

"Of course! I haven't seen him for years. I've missed him!" Debbie admitted, ignoring his warning.     

A warning was all that Carlos could do. Despite being jealous, the mighty man cared too much about Debbie to scold her.
