Debbie tilted her head, looking at Carlos. "I mean it. You're too much for me in bed. I need a break. Tess is a sweet, lovely girl. You'll like her."

Carlos, Frankie and Tess all fell silent when they heard what she had said.

Before long, they arrived at the hotel. Carlos didn't know why Debbie had demanded that they go to a hotel or what she was going to do here. It was evident to him that she was angry about something. Since Debbie was pregnant and had many mood swings, Carlos was ultra-cautious not to make her mood even worse. He didn't ask her anything on their way to their room. Whatever she was going to do, he was there to protect her.

While Frankie was checking them in, the lobby manager took Carlos, Debbie and Tess to the Presidential Suite upstairs.

When the lobby manager opened the door for them, Debbie's phone rang. "I'm in a hotel on Riverside Road. Room 1806. Come over now. Bye."

"Who was that?" asked Carlos.

"Who was that?" asked Carlos.

"Niles," Debbie replied.

He was confused. "What's he coming here for?"

"I bought something, and he's bringing it over for me." Debbie held Tess' hand and walked inside the room. Then she suddenly turned back and looked at Carlos conspiratorially. "Something good."

One look at her expression gave Carlos an ominous feeling.

"Mr. and Mrs. Huo, I think... I better go." Tess' heart was hammering nervously in her chest.

Debbie shook her head and gestured for Tess to sit on the couch. She opened the freezer, took out a lot of the beverages, and told Tess, "Relax. Have a drink. Then take a shower and get ready to sleep with my husband. Oh, don't worry. He's very good."

Tess wanted to cry out loud.

Carlos pulled Debbie into his arms and apologized, "Honey, could you please forgive me? I shouldn't have gone to the Moon Restaurant. It won't happen again."

Debbie blinked innocently and asked in feigned puzzlement, "Why are you apologizing? You did nothing wrong."

Carlos felt defeated and helpless. "It's all Reeve's fault. I've asked Frankie to take care of him. Don't be mad, okay?"

Tess was shocked by his words. She had seen Carlos a few times on TV, but he always looked cold and unapproachable. She had never imagined that he could be so tender.

How she envied Debbie!

Debbie ignored Carlos and moved over to sit beside Tess. "Drink this. Pure milk. Carlos likes it."

'Wh-what? Since when?' Carlos thought to himself.

Tess didn't dare to refuse. She took the carton of milk and said in a voice barely above a whisper, "Thank you, Mrs. Huo."

Once Tess finished drinking the milk, Debbie marched her into the bathroom.

When he was alone with Debbie in the bedroom, Carlos scooped her up and said, "Honey, it's late. Let's go home."

Debbie didn't struggle. She stared at him, demanding coldly,

"Let me down!"

Carlos could do nothing but comply.

Knowing that something interesting was about to happen, Niles was eager to have some fun while watching it all unfold before his eyes. So after he had parked his car, he ran upstairs. He was quick enough to reach the door of Room 1806 before Tess finished showering and came out of the bathroom.

When Carlos opened the door for him, Niles was still panting.

He almost screamed in surprise when the cold man suddenly appeared from behind the door. "Carlos," he greeted him meekly.

"Niles, come on in," Debbie said when she heard him at the door.

Niles grinned at Carlos as he walked past him and went inside the room.

By then, Tess had finished her shower. Dressed in a robe, she stood at the bathroom door looking at the others, lost and pitiful.

Niles handed the thing in his hand to Debbie. "Who is she?" he asked quietly. He looked at Carlos and then at the unknown woman. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he asked again in shock, "Did you walk in on them?"

Debbie laughed. "Don't be ridiculous."

Seeing her laugh, Niles was relieved that it wasn't what he thought.

Carlos walked over to Debbie, but Debbie asked Niles to take him to the living room. She and Tess stayed in the bedroom alone.

In the living room, Carlos grabbed him by the shoulder and pulled Niles closer to him.

"What did you give her?" Carlos asked through gritted teeth, a menacing expression on his face.

Scared, Niles gulped and replied, "Debbie asked me not to tell."

"You have to."

Niles hesitated but still shook his head. "Nah, your wife is in charge now. I listen to her."

Just then, Debbie said from the bedroom, "Niles, Carlos, we're ready. Come in."

Carlos gave Niles a warning look and strode into the bedroom.

Tess was trembling with fear as she lay on the bed and Debbie stood beside the bed.

Debbie was holding something in her hand. When Carlos recognized what it was, the expression on his face turned gloomy. He rushed over to her and said, "It's dangerous. Give it to me!"

Debbie took one step back. "Don't come closer!" she warned. "I won't hurt myself, but if you come near me, I will!"

Carlos sighed and paused. Pissed and anxious, he kicked Niles hard in the butt. "How dare you give her that! What were you thinking?"

"Ow! Carlos, she made me!" Niles explained miserably as he gingerly rubbed his ass.

"Carlos, don't blame Niles. I threatened him. Do you know what's inside the syringe?" The syringe that Debbie was holding was half full. It was filled with a clear liquid.

The smile that she wore made Carlos even more anxious.

He told himself to calm down. "I don't care what it is. Don't harm yourself. You can stick that needle into anybody in this room but yourself."

Debbie was touched a little by his words. Still wearing an eerie smile, she said, "It's the medicinal fluid to make a person lose their memory. You know, the kind that James had you injected with."

The expression on Carlos' face changed dramatically. "Honey, this is crazy! Please drop the syringe!"

Debbie held the syringe up to eye level and flicked it with her finger tapping the air out of it and then gently squeezed it, so some of the fluid squirted out of the end. "Okay, sleep with her and then I'll put it down. Or you'll have a wife who has amnesia. Come to think about it, it may not be such a bad idea. When you had amnesia, you made me suffer a lot. Now it's your turn."

Carlos clenched his teeth and closed his eyes painfully. Then he declared firmly, "I won't sleep with her!"

He wouldn't betray Debbie no matter what.

Debbie began moving the syringe towards her arm. Carlos' heart was in his mouth. "Honey, calm down. Tell me what you want, and I'll do it, except sleeping with her."

Niles gaped at Debbie in sheer disbelief. He couldn't fathom the idea that Debbie was forcing her husband to sleep with another woman. It was the first time that he had ever seen or heard of such a thing.

"You don't do what I want! You don't love me!" Debbie pouted.

"Honey, I love you. Only you. Don't hurt yourself, please." Quietly and slowly, Carlos took one step forward.
