‘Was I really that easy to read?' Carlos wondered upon hearing Niles’ remarks. The truth was that he had been under the assumption that he was doing a good job acting Like he couldn't care Less about the topic.

Seeing how Wesley appeared to be fuming with anger, Damon tried to clear things up very carefully, “In a nutshell, wherever that woman goes, trouble seems to follow." During the time Carlos brought her along to New York, she made a mess out of the Hilton family. And back when she was in Alorith, she caused a lot of problems here."

He tried his best to make Niles understand, but he still failed to do so. It was the details that the young doctor was eager to hear. Niles had a lot more questions up his sleeve, but Wesley already lost his cool.

"Say that wretched woman's name one more time, I dare you, and I'll transfer you to the army and turn you into a military surgeon. Make no doubt about it." The military surgeons who belonged to his troops had undergone such harsh conditions to make sure they could serve their purpose to the best of their abilities.

And with that statement, he finally managed to shut Niles up.

Niles shot Carlos a quick glance, but to his astonishment, as the person directly involved in the matter, he didn't look like he was showing any interest in finding out the answer anymore. With that,

Niles had no other choice but to cease asking further.

Considering the fact that Carlos himself didn't really care that much about knowing his past, he wasn't in any position to be sticking his nose into his business.

“Alright, I won't be prying into it anymore. But at the moment, she is quite a well-known singer in Zugrurg. People say that her songs seem so heartbreaking. Whenever she performs, the fans, as well as the artist herself, tear up. It's possible that she has a tragic past."

Listening to him prattle, Damon took a sip of wine, sneering at him,

“She has done some detestable things, but the worst of them all is when she ran off with another man. What kind of sad past do you think she could possibly have? That woman is one manipulative bitch. You shouldn't let her make a fool out of you."

"She ran off with another man...‘

At that point, Niles* and Carlos’ personal opinions of Debbie probably couldn't get any lower.

It was around two in the morning by the time their group left Orchid

Private Club. Niles climbed into Wesley's military vehicle and told him, “Since you live alone anyway, I'm just going to crash at your place tonight."

Simply giving him a cold stare, Wesley didn't say anything.

The two of them immediately drove off to Wesley's apartment. After making sure that Carlos was already out of sight, Niles began asking again, "Wesley, just between the two of us, what's Debbie's relationship with Carlos?"

Kicking his leg, Wesley yelled at him, "Your curiosity is going to get you in an awful lot of trouble sooner or Later!"

Niles screamed painfully and answered, “I just really wanted to find out." Truth be told, he was actually beginning to regret poking his nose into it. But at that point, he was already much too invested in the topic to drop it. If Wesley still wouldn't tell him anything else about those two, Niles was sure that he would be having a hard time sleeping.

“Carlos and Debbie used to be married." Wesley finally gave in and spilled the beans. Niles’ jaw almost dropped at those words. Wesley went on, "We don't want Carlos to remember such a miserable past. So, it would be best for you to watch your tongue whenever he's around."

“My God. So, she used to be Carlos' wife." Niles was aware that Carlos had been married. But during that time, he wasn't around as he had been studying abroad. For that reason, he had no idea whom Carlos had gotten married to or the state of their married life.

Niles scratched his head, feeling so bewildered.

"But to me, Debbie doesn't look like the type of person you're making her out to be. Being unfaithful and eloping with some other guy? I don't see her as someone capable of doing something like that."

“That's why I've been trying to tell you not to be swayed by her acting. Carlos got seriously injured. That's why he lost his memory

And all of that was because he put himself in harm's way to protect her." Not once had Wesley ever uttered Debbie's name after that terrible accident.
