“Our very own Carlos must dote on her the most. Did you hear the rumor that
Megan was the other woman between Mr. and Mrs. Hilton?”
“Maybe Carlos is nicer to Megan than to Mrs. Hilton. Megan must have saved the
world in her previous Life. What else could explain her never ending streak of
Luck?
At Orchid Private Club
After supper, Wesley answered a phone call and bade his friends adieu, unable
to stay with them any longer.
Being a military officer sometimes denied him time for his taste for the fine things
of life.
The members of his crew settled down to whine, amid chitchat. But Damon didn’t
stay long either. About two or three glasses later, he too excused himself.
“Hey, guys, will you excuse me? I need to go back home and keep my wife
company. See you tomorrow.”
That left only Curtis, Megan and Carlos in the private booth.
In a bad mood, Carlos was inclined to seek solace in drink. After he and Curtis
finished a bottle of fine Chinese spirits, the latter got a call from Colleen. As he
stood to leave, Curtis had a hunch that Carlos might want to stay at the booth a
little longer, so he reminded Megan to watch on him.
“In case he gets two extra glasses after I'm gone, please don't let him drive. I
know Emmett will be on standby, so you can call him to drive the two of you any
time,” he advised and walked out of the club as well.
“Uncle Carlos, why are you not happy? Is it something that you could get over by
talking? Should you feel the need to kindly talk to me,
I'll be more than willing to listen.” Megan propped her hand against her chin and
looked worriedly at him.
Staring at his glass, Carlos asked, “How did you know she took birth control pills?
Tell me the truth.”
Although he was not staring at Megan, sternness was obvious in his voice.
Her heart skipped a beat at the question.
“I-1 saw it... with my own eyes. Uncle Carlos, you don't believe me, do you?” she
stammered.
At the beginning, Carlos didn’t believe Megan's words. But after he had taken
Debbie to the hospital, he could only accept the bitter truth that his wife had been
taking birth control pills.
After a long pause, he spoke.
“Your aunt Debbie is short-tempered.
Please be more tolerant towards her.”
