Having been left at such a loss for words, Miranda stopped dead in her tracks. It
was as though Debbie had perfectly read her mind. In fact, that was precisely the
reason why she had been treating her so cold
ALL throughout these past three years, she would get upset every single time
she thought of Debbie.
She used to have such a good impression of Debbie, believing that she was the
one who had been destined for Carlos. Be that as it may, from what she had
been told, Debbie left Carlos after the unfortunate car accident and filed for a
divorce, had an abortion, and in the end, eloped with another man. Getting so
saddened by that, she felt so utterly disappointed in Debbie.
Miranda didn’t bother looking at her, and she didn’t give her any sort of answer
as well.
Debbie went ahead and added, “James tricked me into believing that
Carlos didn’t make it, and pressured me into leaving Alorith. I know you may find
it so hard to believe right now after everything that happened. I completely
understand that. But Aunt Miranda, if I can find a way to prove myself to you and
that I'm telling you the truth, I hope that you will help me win Carlos back again.
Would you please do me this favor? If I have to beg, then I'm willing to do that.
This way,
Carlos will also end up being able to regain the executive rights to the Hilton
Group. Isn't that right?”
Everything that Debbie just said sounded quite believable and was within reason.
As a matter of fact, James had won the support of the senior managers and
successfully secured his position in the company while Carlos was still in a coma.
No one was capable of making him step down apart from Carlos. Having said
that, James had done such a good job pretending to be a respectable father
while Carlos was suffering from memory loss. Because of that, the amnesiac
Carlos had complete trust in him, and not once had the thought of taking back
the Hilton Group ever come to his mind.
Whenever she would get the chance to speak with Carlos in private,
Miranda would always try to remind him that he could easily take back his
position in the company. However, Carlos would just simply refuse considering
the idea every single time. It even came to a point where he actually gave her a
fair warning not to sow the seeds of discord between him and his father.
Given that Miranda still wasn't saying anything and just kept quiet,
Debbie tried asking once more, “There’s something else I've been meaning to
ask you about, Aunt Miranda. Was it also James who told everyone what the
cause of the car accident was? Did he tell you that it was because the truck
driver had been extremely exhausted while he was driving?” With the cause of
the car accident being mentioned,
Miranda finally turned around to look at Debbie. This was something she wasn't
expecting to hear, so her curiosity had gotten piqued.
A bit taken aback, she asked her directly, “What are you trying to imply from
that?”
Seeming so resolute, Debbie peered straight into her eyes.
“Just two nights ago, James tried to run me over with his car. And as luck would
have it, somehow, I managed to dodge it. But that incident reminded me of what
happened that year. Being at the jaws of death, I had a suspicion that it was...”
“Bite your tongue!” Feeling so anxious, Miranda Looked over towards the door.
Upon checking through the glass window and making sure that no one was
standing outside the room, she flatly said, “You should be acting your age. Are
you not aware that out of the mouth comes evil? Be mindful of what you say. For
now, why don’t you head back to Alorith?
And don’t come back until you could bring me some proof that would be enough
to prove your innocence. If you can't come up with anything to prove yourself, I'm
telling you right now that you shouldn't expect getting any help from me, and I will
even help James get rid of you!”
