Chapter 4
She quickly opened her bag to get the money. To her surprise, she only had two hundred dollars and some changes left. Pausing for a few seconds, she cleared her throat and added, “Uh… can I get a discount?”
“A discount?” Carlos repeated, outraged. The more he looked at her, the more he was sure that he had seen her before.
It did not take a genius to know that the man in front of Debbie was pissed off. He Looked as if he were planning on throwing her into the sea to feed a shark. If Looks could kill, she should have been dead already.
Suddenly, Debbie’s face lit up. She took out her phone and suggested,

Carlos cast a fierce glance at his assistant and threw the money to him.
“Catch that woman!” he ordered, through gritted teeth.
“Yes, sir!” Emmett was confused, but he followed Carlos’s order nevertheless.
At the same time, Debbie was able to leave the bar unscathed. It did not take long before she reunited with her classmates.
Her face was still flushed as she sat in Jared Hampton’s car. What had happened just now was the craziest thing she had ever done in her life.
‘Oh my God! I gave my first kiss to a stranger! Was that considered as being unfaithful to my marriage? Did I just cheat on my nominal husband?”

“What’s wrong? Are those hooligans still after us?” Kristina Lawrence nervously asked. She was so terrified that she almost jumped up from the seat when she heard Kasie. In a fit of panic, she hurriedly
looked at the rear window to see what it was.
Kasie leaned closer to Debbie, who was still in a trance, and shook her shoulders excitedly.
“Debbie, do you know who that man is?”
It was only then that Debbie came to her senses. She knew very well that Kasie was someone who would easily get startled. She did not mind, though, as she was used to it by now.
