Debbie pulled a long face when she heard his answer. "Humph! That's so unfair!" Meanwhile, she felt like a fool. Why didn't she think of Carlos' private plane? She wouldn't have had to endure such a long and tiring trip if she had come to the Gobi Desert in his private plane!
Carlos chuckled under his breath. He coaxed, "Don't be upset. We'll fly back home together."
Debbie pursed her lips, her cheeks bulging up in anger. But she could do nothing else about it anyway.
Finally, they made up for lost time in a hotel near the Gobi Desert. Debbie would never forget that night. Carlos was hungrier than ever in bed. She had initially planned to do some sightseeing, but from the moment he showed up, she was too exhausted to do anything but sleep. On the third day of her trip, when she rode a camel, she found her legs trembling terribly due to the strain of the previous night.
She couldn't help wondering if Carlos deliberately did it to punish her. But each time she complained to him, he would shook his head innocently. "No, I didn't mean to. I swear!"
Debbie had no choice but to drop it.
On the fifth day of their stay on the Gobi Desert, Debbie eyed the man up and down. He looked as fresh and clean as usual. She asked gloomily, "Don't you think life is hard out here?"
Carlos kissed her cheek and then answered sincerely, "No. Wherever you are, that's home. I feel so much better with you."
"But what about the company?"
He kissed her again. "What about it? I'm on holiday."
He answered each of her questions perfectly.
On the seventh day, they ended their trip and boarded Carlos' private plane. They flew back home in relative luxury. It did save a lot of time traveling in a private plane.
Evelyn was playing with her little sister at the manor. When she saw her parents come back home, she excitedly darted towards them and called out, "Daddy, Mommy!"
Debbie planted a kiss on Evelyn's cheek and said lovingly, "Baby, Mommy missed you so much!"
"Mommy, I missed you, too!" Evelyn stuck her head out and looked at her father. Stretching out her arms to him, she added, "I missed Daddy more."
Carlos grinned from ear to ear, and scooped her up in his arms.
Debbie unhappily watched the father and daughter talk and laugh amongst themselves. 'Forget it. I have Terilynn, my little baby, ' she comforted herself, and went to see her baby girl.
Miranda was working, and wasn't home. Wade took care of Terilynn. Seeing Debbie come over, he handed the baby girl to her and asked, "Have a good time?"
Debbie carefully bounced Terilynn in her arms while answering Wade, "Oh yeah." But she thought to herself, 'I had a good time, except that your son found me. My escape failed.'
"Glad to hear it. Oh, Miranda asked me to tell you, you don't need to worry about the kids. Between us and the nannies, they're fine. So you can circle the globe while you're still young."
Debbie was moved by his words. "Thank you, Dad."
After everything she'd been through, she felt really happy with what she had now.
Besides a husband that spoiled her to the hilt, she had awesome in-laws, and two lovely daughters. 'I am so blessed, ' she thought to herself, her face glowing with happiness.
Debbie was so tired after her long journey. She lay in bed, playing on her phone, feeling drowsy. When she was about to put her phone up and sleep, she saw Carlos emerge from the bathroom. Immediately, she tossed her phone aside and threw herself into his arms. "Honey!"
Holding the fragrant woman, Carlos kissed her lips and caught a glimpse of her phone. The screen was still on. "Playing on your phone? I thought you were tired."
She took him to the bed and sat him down. Nestling in his arms, she whispered gently in his ear, "I'm waiting for you…" Her hot breath fell on his neck.
"Awesome. I'm turning in." He decided to tuck her in first before diving into work.
They lay in bed, hugging each other. Carlos reached out for the bed lamp and turned it off. In the dark, Debbie became a little handsy and ran her fingers across his muscular body.
Carlos grasped her hand and said in a husky voice, "Not tonight. You need your rest—badly. Tomorrow, okay? Promise."
This was the first time he turned her down after he got his memory back. She shook her head, her big eyes sparkling brightly in the dark. "I want a third child with you."
Carlos clung to her tightly. "Honey, we have two daughters. That's enough. I don't want to see you suffer anymore." He couldn't bring himself to see her endure the pains of pregnancy and delivery.
Debbie turned her body and climbed on top of him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and complained, "No way. I want a third child. I have to find out how many lovers you had in your past life!" There is a saying: A daughter is like a lover from a father's past life. Debbie had given birth to two daughters for him, so she believed that he must be a philandering man who had a lot of lovers in his previous life.
Carlos couldn't help laughing. "Listen to you! I don't even remember my past life." 'She's very possessive too, ' he thought.
She grinned and nodded, "Well, yeah! Your last life, this one, and the next, too. You're mine forever!"
Carlos suddenly turned and pressed her under him. With tenderness in his eyes, he announced affectionately, "Okay, I'm yours, forever!"
"Hmm-hmm!" Debbie nodded her head vigorously.
"Now that you're not tired, let's find out the truth—together." As soon as he was done speaking, he kissed her lips and made love to her.
However, before Debbie was successfully pregnant with the third child, she gave up on the idea very soon. She couldn't keep up with him, and it was passionate torture every night.
One day, Debbie registered a new account on Weibo with another name. From time to time, she would post some pictures of Carlos and her, recording their daily life.
Although none of those pictures revealed their faces clearly, some fans still figured out it was Debbie's account, and those pics were candid snaps of her family.
The amount of followers on Debbie's new account skyrocketed. From a few hundred to a few million overnight.
A lot of fans said the same thing. They said, "Mrs. Huo, you're too happy with Mr. Huo to remember your fans. Please consider us. You haven't released a new album in a long time. We want to hear new songs. Please!"
A fan commented, "Mrs. Huo, it's been two years and three months and four days since your last album. Your fans are running out of patience. How about a comeback this month?"
Another fan commented, "Maybe you can make it up to us with more pics of Mr. Huo."
"Or the pictures of your two princesses! I want the two little girls to melt my heart!" commented a crazy fan of Debbie's.
Meanwhile, a ton of private messages came flooding into Debbie's new account. Bowing to pressure from her fans, Debbie had no choice but to secretly snap a few pictures of Carlos working in his Western suit. She selected nine of them and posted them on her Weibo page. She wrote, "Look at our husband, girls. He's too busy to pose. Always working! This is candid camera!"
Her post went viral. Like there was any doubt it would.
Judging by the comment section, a lot of young girls were excited. "Debbie is a queen!" they wrote. "She refers to Mr. Huo as 'our husband!' Debbie, I love you. I'll be your fan forever!"
"Does that mean I'm 'Mrs. Huo' too?" some fans teased.
For a time, life was relatively normal. When everybody around them thought that they would just live happily ever after, Debbie seized a chance to secretly escape again, leaving her husband and two daughters behind.
Her plan was quite successful this time. This was longer than her previous attempts, and her whereabouts were well-hidden, which almost drove Carlos crazy. He had sent men to the far corners of the earth, but to no avail. He couldn't find his beloved wife anywhere.
