Since she was now at the hospital, Debbie decided to have herself examined. She put on a mask and a baseball cap and went to the obstetrics and gynecology department.
Her problem was that her aunt Flo didn't visit her this month. And when a woman didn't get her period, that meant either there was a problem, or she was pregnant.
She idly wondered if she had been drugged with birth control pills again. But that was highly unlikely given the family dynamics now. The person who needed to be humbled was not her. The Hilton family members probably weren't going to pull that again.
An hour later, Debbie showed up at the offices of Hilton Group.
Despite her gauze and baseball cap, many employees still recognized her. They said hi to her, and she was forced to acknowledge at least a few of them as she made her way to Carlos' office. She pressed the button for the elevator and waited for a while.
When she arrived at the top floor, Zelda was the only secretary there.
Debbie shushed her and quietly opened the door to the CEO's office. She wanted to tell him the good news in person.
Before the door could be opened all the way, she heard a girl weeping.
The door was only opened a crack, but she could hear it clearly from where she was.
“I didn't do it on purpose. Uncle Carlos, please help me fix this!" she pleaded.
Debbie stopped in her tracks-it was Megan.
Carlos just sat there silently. ‘Good on him, ' thought Debbie. ‘He shouldn't get himself in trouble just to get her out of it!'
In a choked voice, Megan continued, "I didn't see her when I was backing out! She was behind my car, and I didn't see her at first. I hit her..."
“Hit her?
Who did Megan hit?" Suddenly, Debbie had a bad feeling about this. She thought she knew exactly whom Megan hit with her car
Carlos finally answered in a serious voice, "Megan, you're all grown up now. Take a Little responsibility, okay?"
“Please, Uncle Carlos! I didn't do it on purpose. Once Kasie is recovered, I'll apologize to her personally. Help me cover this up! And have the footage deleted, okay?”
Debbie had been beaming since she had left the hospital, but she wasn't smiling now. Megan had run over Kasie!
Carlos frowned and said nothing.
Megan kept pleading, “Uncle Curtis is getting married soon. I really, really want to go. Uncle Carlos, please help me! Don't tell—"
Bang! Debbie pushed open the door heavily
The door hit the wall, making a loud sound. Even Zelda, who was forced to keep quiet, was startled.
When she saw who was standing at the door, Megan shivered, pale as a ghost.
Even the unflappable Carlos seemed surprised, furrowing his eyebrows
‘Did she hear everything?' he wondered. He strode towards Debbie and called out, "Honey-"
