Debbie stopped and looked at him coldly.
“I'm sorry. Do I know you? Get away from me.”
Gus was stunned by her rude tone. It was not until then that he sensed there was
something wrong about her behavior towards him.
His happy face disappeared. He shouted at her back, “Debbie, I was just asking
you to call me “Uncle’, as you rightly should. Do you have to pull such a long face
for that?”
Without so much as a pause, Debbie walked straight towards her classroom.
“Damn that Curtis!
Why does he put me on such frustrating tasks every time?’ he wondered sullenly.
On the eighth day she was in England, Debbie video-called Carlos and learned
that he was sick.
She asked Emmett how it happened, and he told her that ever since she had
gone to England, Carlos hadn't gone back to the manor even once. He ate and
slept at the company and worked more than ten hours a day. The long hours,
stress, and lack of sleep eventually damaged his health.
Today was the third day he had been sick, but he had taken no medicine and
insisted on working without a break.
Worried, Debbie made him go to the hospital by coaxing, ordering, and
threatening him all at once.
Even so, she still didn’t believe that Carlos would take his pills Like he was
supposed to.
During recess, she sent Carlos a message asking, “Did you take your medicine?
Take a picture so that I can see it for myself.”
She didn’t get any reply. Instead, she got a domestic call from an unknown
number.
“Hello?” she answered.
“Aunt Debbie, it's me. Uncle Carlos hasn't taken his medicine yet. He's having a
fever of 39°C. I've tried to persuade him, but he won't Listen.
You try.
“It was Megan.
Debbie couldn't figure out why the girl had called her all of a sudden.
“Where is he?”
