Before Megan could respond, Colleen said, "What aunt? We're not married yet."
Curtis walked over to stand at her side and smiled, "Do you think you can get rid of me? You're stuck with me, woman."
Colleen blushed and made a face at him."I need to borrow Debbie for a minute. You guys go ahead." Then she took Debbie's hand and led her away to the door.
After they walked out of the ward, Colleen looked at Debbie and said worriedly, "About Carlos saving Megan, don't overthink."
"Okay, " Debbie responded. but she found Colleen strange.
When they moved to the safe passage, Colleen stopped walking and reminded her, "Debbie, you don't have to get angry with Carlos because of Megan. That will save you unnecessary stress."
"Colleen, what are you trying to tell me? I don't understand."
Colleen laughed and said, "Right. I was so anxious I forgot that you had only seen Megan a few times."
Then she lowered her voice and said to Debbie, "I don't know what that girl is up to. You know what? Wesley's girlfriend, well, sort of girlfriend, got engaged to someone else, mostly because of her."
Debbie was shocked by the news. She knew Colleen was talking about Megan.
"Afterwards, Curtis and I argued a couple of times too. All because of her.
I don't mean to talk about her behind her back, but she's too manipulative. You never know what she is thinking. Anyway, be careful. Don't get into disagreements with Carlos over her. Otherwise, you will only give her what she wants. Okay?"
Finally, Debbie understood what she meant."If she is so awful, why can't the four of them see it?" It struck her as odd that a whole four men still doted on Megan, even with full knowledge of her manipulation. Were they blind?
"They are men. Only women can see through other women's deep buried dark thoughts. In their eyes, Megan is an innocent, adorable girl. An angel. They never think badly of her. Nor do they believe that she will stir up things among us, " said Colleen, shrugging with resignation.
If what she said was true, then Megan was really a horrible person."I wonder what she is up to, " Debbie said honestly.
le? Why can't you just keep your lovey-dovey down a notch in front of the single?"
"Why don't you just bring Adriana back and floss on us with the sweetness between you two?" Carlos retorted.
That line didn't go down well with Damon. If anything, it cut him deep at heart like a knife. Although he didn't say a word, his face darkened.
Seeing the brooding look on Damon's face, Debbie felt bad. She tugged at Carlos' sleeve. Carlos knew what she meant. He looked at her with a frown. 'Is she feeling bad for Damon?' he thought unhappily, a little jealous.
Assured that Megan was fine, Carlos and Curtis left the ward with their women.
After their cars drove out of the hospital, they went in different directions.
In the next two days, Carlos didn't go to the company. He worked at home. Debbie had offered to take care of him at home, but he sent her to school. As he had demanded, Debbie didn't skip a single class.
On the third day, Debbie and Kasie waited on the playground for Jared and Dixon to come to the classroom with them. A few minutes passed, but the boys didn't show up. To kill time, the girls chatted as they were waiting.
Then all of a sudden, Debbie spotted two familiar figures in front of the office building. 'Is that Carlos? Isn't he supposed to be resting at home? Is he fit enough to teach already?' she wondered.
"Debbie, what are you looking at?" someone asked in a soft voice.
