The color complimented her fair skin and the vintage style made her look
elegant. Carlos was smug. He had such good taste.
As he stared at her with passion in his eyes, he began to fantasize. He knew
what Lay beneath that dress, and he wanted to see it. God knew how much he
wanted to take that dress off her and make love to her.
After some wild fantasies, he swallowed hard and composed himself. He
dismissed the maids. Then he walked up to Debbie. When she Looked at him
confusedly, he suddenly knelt on one knee and helped her put on the shoes.
Debbie stared affectionately at the man helping her with her high heels. She was
so moved. Ever since he regained his memory, he treated her so well, even
better than when they were first together. She told herself to keep him at arm's
Length, but each time he treated her Like this, she couldn't be mean to him. She
didn’t know what to do.
After helping Debbie with her high heels, Carlos opened the jewelry box on the
desk and helped her put each piece on one by one, despite her reluctance.
At last, he took out a ring. He held it up to her, displaying the huge heart-shaped
diamond, a 3.5Qct princess cut.
“And now, the piece de resistance,” he announced. He was about to put it on her
ring finger, but Debbie protested silently with her index finger pointing forward.
Her meaning was obvious.
Carlos flashed a thin smile. He obeyed her this time and put the diamond ring on
her index finger instead.
After that, she tried to draw her hand back, but he grabbed hold of it again.
Staring into her eyes, he declared imperiously, “I'm just going to take your
protests in stride. It's normal to fight every once in a while. But no matter what,
you'll be my wife. I'm not budging on this one!”
Debbie looked back at him sullenly. In her mind, she thought, “Do you have to be
SO possessive?’
Carlos carried Debbie in his arms as they descended the staircase. Her dress
was floor-length, and he didn’t want her to trip on it. A fall down the stairs could
be lethal.
