"GOOD MORNING, SWEETHEART." NO ONE KNEW SHE WAS MARRIED TO THE CEO UNTIL HE WALKED INTO THE OFFICE HOLDING HER HAND. Chapter 1 The Divorce Agreement "Philip, this is the divorce agreement. I've already signed it. Please give it to Carlos." Debbie Nelson plucked up her courage and handed the signed agreement to Philip Brown, the steward of the Hilton family. Philip was shocked by the words "divorce agreement". His first thought was that Debbie wanted to get a divorce so as to carve up the property that belonged to Carlos Hilton. But as he looked through the document, he saw that she wanted to give up everything, including her share of the mutual property. Philip heaved a heavy sigh. "Debbie, why are you being ridiculous? Why would you want to divorce Mr. Hilton and even choose to give up your property?" Debbie was only a college student, and she had no parents. It was unwise for her to ask for a divorce now, much less give up her property that was worth quite a fortune. Embarrassed, Debbie looked away and scratched the back of her head. "Carlos and I have been married for three years, but our marriage only exists on paper. I don't want to waste my time on him anymore," she admitted, instead of hiding the reason from Philip. She had a life of her own. She did not want this nominal marriage to take her youth. In her eyes, Carlos was merely a stranger whom she had never met literally, so she had nothing to lose if she let him go. Besides, this marriage was arranged by her late parents. She had no feelings for it at all. "I see. It seems that you've already made up your mind. Today... No. I will give this to Mr. Hilton tomorrow." Debbie let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Philip," she uttered with a lovely smile on her face. Philip stood up to leave. But before he took a step, he turned to Debbie and stated, "Debbie, Mr. Hilton is a good man. In my opinion, you two are a perfect match. I hope you think it through again." 'A perfect match?' Debbie repeated in her mind. But she had not even seen her husband in the past three years. Even if they were a perfect match, so what? A bitter smile formed on her lips. She took a deep breath and firmly replied, "Phillip, I've made up my mind." The next afternoon, Phillip still had not received a call from Debbie. He had expected her to regret her hasty decision to get a divorce or at least add some conditions to the agreement. However, she did not. Resigned, Philip took out his phone and dialed a number. As soon as he was connected to Carlos, he said, "Mr. Hilton, there's a document that needs your signature." "What kind of document?" Carlos asked indifferently. Philip hesitated for a moment before answering, "It's... a divorce agreement." Carlos, who was dealing with some papers in his office, stiffened. It was only then that he remembered he had a wife. As Phillip received no response from the other end of the line, he suggested, "Mr. Hilton, why don't you talk with Mrs. Hilton about it?" "How much does she want?" Carlos asked coldly. "Nothing. She even wishes to give up her share of your mutual property." "She wants to give up everything?" "That's right. But Mr. Hilton, I would like to remind you that your father is not in good health at the moment. If he finds out about this, he will lose his temper again. What's more, if the news that your wife has abandoned you spreads, I'm afraid it will leave a bad impact on you and the company," Philip concluded calmly. "Very well. Put the agreement in my office. I'll return to Alorith in two days." "Yes, Mr. Hilton." Philip did not dare to say anything more. After all, once Carlos had made up his mind, nobody could change his decision. In the Blue Night Bar in Alorith. As the night fell, more and more young people entered the bar. Debbie usually wore casual clothes. But since today was her birthday, she had decided to wear a pink dress trimmed with lace. It was unusual for her to dress like a lady. Several classmates of hers pulled out their phones and took pictures with her. While they were enjoying the party, a fat drunkard appeared out of nowhere and wrapped an arm around Debbie's waist. "Hey, beautiful lady. Let's also take a photo." As the man sexually harassed her, Debbie slapped him across the face with all her strength. The drunkard sobered up in an instant. He gritted his teeth in anger and walked closer, intending to teach Debbie a lesson. Fortunately, her classmates stood in front of her to protect her. Debbie was a sheer beauty. This was not the first time she had experienced being harassed by filthy men. One of Debbie's classmates looked at the drunkard up and down and commented with utter disdain, "Can you behave yourself? It's embarrassing for an old man like you to annoy a young girl." "Next time, look at yourself in the mirror before you leave your house. How did you have the nerve to take a picture with a decent lady? " another mocked. The man was enraged that the group of young people insulted his appearance. Fuming with anger, he put down his drink and bellowed, "How dare you?! I won't let you off!" As soon as he said those words, he waved his hand. Soon, a group of hooligans surrounded Debbie and her classmates. Those who had attended Debbie's birthday were her college students. Afraid they would make trouble for themselves, they did not dare to fight off campus. Meanwhile, Debbie's eyes widened in horror upon realizing that they were outnumbered by those hooligans. So, without hesitation, she shouted, "Run!" Her classmates were also aware that this was not the right time to be a hero. Without wasting a second, they picked up their bags and bolted. The hooligans chased them around in all directions. Unfortunately for Debbie, she could not run fast as she was wearing a dress and high heels. She got separated from her companions before she could even reach the exit. Because of this, she took off her shoes and ran barefoot. When she turned a corner, she suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure. Meanwhile, the hooligans were getting closer. Debbie, who was a bit tipsy, had no time to think of a plan, so she just threw herself into the man's arms and held him in desperation. "Honey!" she called in the most coquettish voice that she could muster. Chater 2 Catch That Woman With a frown, Carlos looked at the beautiful woman, who suddenly popped up in front of him. At first, he thought that she was an unknown entertainer or model, who wanted to hook up with him. But for some reason, her face looked so familiar. While he was lost in thought, Debbie wheeled him around, leaned against the door and stood on tiptoe to kiss him. The man's tall figure obscured Debbie from view. In others' eyes, it seemed that the man was forcing Debbie to kiss him when it was actually the contrary. Carlos was infuriated. Nobody had ever offended him like this. Just as he was about to push Debbie away, she unbuttoned his shirt and blatantly felt his chest. She stiffened for a second when she felt his hard and toned pecs. 'Wow. What a muscular man!' she remarked inwardly. The hooligans, who were chasing Debbie, left when they saw the intimate scene. They did not think that one of them was their target. As if the kiss was not enough, Debbie nestled in Carlos's arms. As soon as she noticed that the hooligans were gone, she pushed the man away and smiled fawningly at him. "Oops. Sorry. I mistook you for someone else." Carlos wiped the lipstick off his lips in disgust. He caught a whiff of red wine on this woman's breath and in his own mouth, so he surmised that she must have been drinking. At this moment, Debbie raised her head to look at the man. Not until then did she see his face. His dark and deep eyes, thick dashing eyebrows, high nose, and beautiful lips all showed his elegance and nobility. However, his eyes were icy cold, and his dissatisfaction was written all over his face. Upon realizing that the man was displeased, Debbie flashed him a smile and said apologetically, "As compensation, I'll give you two thousand dollars!" In her eyes, he was the most handsome man she had ever seen. Two thousand dollars was worth it. 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, "I know! I'll make the transfer via the cellphone." She clicked on the screen, but it did not light up. A sinking feeling emerged in her heart when she saw that her phone was dead. Embarrassed, she raised her head and smiled awkwardly at the man. "It seems that my phone has died..." Meanwhile, Carlos was fuming with anger. He felt that the woman in front of him was making a fool out of him. Just when he was a second away from losing his temper, Debbie stuffed all her remaining money into his hand and ran away. Carlos was dumbfounded. He stared at the money in his hand in a daze and then looked in the direction in which Debbie just left. Emmett Cooper, Carlos's assistant, had just gone to park the car. When he headed towards the bar, he saw Carlos standing still with a grim expression. Emmett swallowed hard and then trotted towards his boss. Seeing that Carlos was holding hundreds of dollars in his hand and giving off a frightening aura, Emmett cautiously asked, "Mr. Hilton, are you... are you going to buy something?" 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?' On second thought, Debbie believed that it should be alright. She had signed the divorce agreement anyway. All of a sudden, Kasie Garcia gasped in shock and exclaimed, "Oh, my God!" "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. "Who is it?" she asked back with a deadpan expression. "That man is the man of women's dreams. He's the famous CEO of a multinational group in Alorith! He's Mr. Hilton!" "Oh... I've never heard of him." Debbie picked up a bottle of water and took a sip leisurely. "His name is Carlos Hilton!" Kasie stressed, hoping she would get the same enthusiasm. Carlos was a legendary figure she could not afford to offend. Upon hearing the name, Debbie spat the water out. Kasie got splashed with water on the face. With a helpless look on her face, she stared at Debbie, who, for some reason, was panic-stricken. "What? Are you saying that beer-bellied drunkard is Carlos Hilton?!" Debbie asked with eyes wide open in shock. Chater 3 Show Off Their Love Kasie rolled her eyes and patted Debbie's head. "Not that one, you dummy. I'm talking about the man you kissed!" "Wait, what?! You kissed Mr. Hilton? You're quite a troublemaker, aren't you, Debbie?" Jared remarked with a chuckle. He was the first to react. He was so surprised with what he had just heard that he stepped on the gas hard. His father was the general manager of a financial company in Alorith. He had known about Carlos for years. When Kristina heard Carlos's name and recalled who he was, she exclaimed, "Oh, my gosh! Debbie, you just kissed Mr. Hilton! Come here. Let me kiss you to feel his lips and smell his scent!" As soon as she said those words, she threw herself at Debbie. "Stop it." Debbie pushed Kristina away in annoyance and wiped the water off Kasie's face with a tissue. She was so dumbfounded by what she had just learned that she even forgot to apologize to Kasie. "Carlos rarely appears in media. How do you know it's him?" she asked in a serious tone. "He cooperated with my father, and I met him once," Kasie replied impatiently. "Are you sure it's him?" Debbie queried. The truth was, she was on the verge of breaking down. "I'm a hundred percent sure!" Although kissing Carlos was a great honor, Kasie never expected Debbie, who had never flirted with men, to be so excited. A sinking feeling emerged in Debbie's heart. She was doomed. Noticing that Debbie was in a daze, Kasie patted her friend's hand comfortingly. "I heard that many women wanted to sleep with Mr. Hilton, but they were thrown out by him. Debbie, you have no chance of hooking up with him. But on the bright side, not all women have the chance to kiss him." Debbie shook off Kasie's hand and glumly said, "He doesn't deserve it." "Whatever. Anyway, we have to celebrate. Let's go shopping tomorrow! After that, let's ask Debbie to treat us to dinner!" Kristina shouted excitedly. Debbie rolled her eyes at Kristina and leaned back in the backseat, lost in thought. She paid no attention to her classmates' enthusiasm. Unlike them, she was distressed. She and Carlos got married three years ago. The marriage procedure was handled by Carlos's assistant. When their marriage had been finalized, Carlos asked Phillip to give Debbie the best no matter what she needed. For three years, it was only tonight that she saw what her husband looked like. Carlos had kept a low profile and never accepted any interviews. The media was not even allowed to post his photos on the Internet. But one day, the media had a slip-up and posted Carlos's photo. It was a picture of him holding a female star's arm at a press conference. However, the only thing that was shown of him was his back. No wonder Debbie felt that his back looked familiar. And tonight, she kissed him at the bar... If Carlos had signed the divorce agreement, he would be her ex-husband now. Debbie got home about an hour later. To her disappointment, Carlos had not signed the agreement yet. She went nuts upon knowing this. Her uneasiness did not dissipate even when she was about to sleep. She just twisted and turned on the bed the whole night. The next day, Debbie walked hand in hand with Kasie and Kristina at Shining International Plaza. She had dark circles under her eyes as she had a sleepless night. With shopping bags in their hands, Jared and Dixon Stevenson followed the girls wherever they went. They had been shopping for hours, and the boys were exhausted. Unable to take it any longer, Jared patted the shoulders of the three girls. "Hey, ladies. I've never seen you so energetic in long-distance running before. Why don't you take a rest when you go shopping?" "What for?" Kristina pointed at the store in front of them and added, "We're here. This is the last stop." Jared clasped his hands together and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, ladies!" Debbie, Kristina, and Kasie all walked over to the store and whispered with one another. When the saleswoman saw the box of lipsticks in Debbie's hand, she smiled at her and said, "Hello, Miss. That lipstick is popular here. If you want it, take it. You're lucky we still have one left for you." Debbie took a look at the price tag. The lipstick cost $129, 999. 'Should I buy this or not?' she asked herself. "Debbie, have you forgotten that you're rich? You drive a car worth tens of millions of dollars. What are you so hesitant about? These lipsticks just cost more than a hundred thousand dollars. You can afford it. If you're hesitant, I'll decide for you. Buy it!" Jared urged. "The car isn't mine. I just use it for the meantime," Debbie uttered. Actually, the car belonged to her husband, not her. She had nothing to show off. Just then, a commotion occurred not far away. Debbie lifted her gaze to see what was happening. Suddenly, her eyes widened, and she almost dropped the box of lipsticks in shock. Several people were making their way to the shop Debbie and her friends were in. The man in the lead was wearing an expensive dark tailored suit. His attire emphasized his tall and straight figure. His deep eyes were calm, yet his imposing aura made people back away and make way for him. 'This man is... Oh, no! It's my husband! But who is the lady next to him? She has fair skin and a perfect figure. She's absolutely stunning, ' Debbie marveled inwardly. It was unusual for Carlos to have a girlfriend, much less go to the public with her to go shopping. 'Is he so eager to show off their love?' Debbie wondered. Chater 4 You Can't Afford It Having sensed Debbie's gaze, Carlos cast a glance at her. It seemed to have caught Debbie by surprise as she quickly lowered her head and stared at the lipstick. Pretending to be calm, she asked Kasie, "Do you think this color suits me?" However, Kasie didn't answer her question. She tugged at Debbie's sleeve excitedly and said, "You and Mr. Hilton meet again! What a coincidence!" Kristina asked, "Debbie, who is the woman next to Mr. Hilton?" Kasie asked, "Debbie, is Mr. Hilton here to see you?" Debbie looked at the two women beside her morosely. All of a sudden, an unfamiliar voice rang out. "I don't think it suits you. After all, you can't afford it." Confused, Debbie raised her head to see who it was and she found that it was the woman next to Carlos talking. Did they know each other? Olga Moron, her curly brunette hair tied back into a chic updo, walked up to them, arm in arm with Carlos. She unfurled her slender fingers with painted fingernails and gracefully took the box of lipsticks from Debbie's hand. "I'll take this. Pack this for me!" Then she looked at Debbie up and down with a contemptuous smile on her lips. In her eyes, Debbie was just a college student pretending to be high-class and elegant. 'Why did Carlos cast a few glances at this woman? Yes, she is beautiful, but she is not as attractive as I am!' Olga thought. Displeased, Debbie snapped at her, "Why are you looking at me like that? Besides, how do you know what I can or can't afford?" Then Debbie snatched the box from Olga's hand. "I'm paying for this now!" she said to the saleswoman. The saleswoman kept silent, but she took out the POS machine and swiped Debbie's card before she turned around to pack the box of lipsticks. Olga's face darkened at once. "How dare you speak to me like that? Who do you think you are? You should know your place before you go shopping in a high-end mall like Shining International Plaza!" Debbie sneered and looked Olga up and down. "Humph! What makes you think you deserve to shop at a nice establishment like this? Who gave you the right to look down upon others? I'm afraid this set of lipsticks is not suitable for your age." Needless to say, Olga wasn't pleased by the way Debbie treated her. After all, as the most beloved child of the Moron family, she always had people licking her boots ever since she was little. No one had ever spoken to her like Debbie did. In response, Olga took a deep breath before she turned around and walked up to Carlos. Playing the victim, Olga pouted her lips at him and said, "Mr. Hilton, that woman disrespected me and called me old." "I didn't say you are old. You said so yourself." Debbie shook her head at Olga as if she were watching a play. "You!" Although Olga was furious, she didn't know how to retort. She had no choice but to turn to Carlos for help. "Mr. Hilton, you can't let her treat me like that." When Carlos looked at Debbie carefully, he realized that she was the one who had kissed him at the bar! All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were focused on Carlos as if they were waiting to hear what he had to say. However, he opened his mouth to say something but eventually refrained. Olga looked at the silent man with an aggrieved expression. She wanted to say something, but she had to let it go because she was afraid of him. Meanwhile, standing right behind them was Emmett, Carlos's assistant. The more he looked at Debbie, the more she seemed familiar to him. Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. Scratching his head, he walked up to Carlos and said, "Mr. Hilton... this is..." Chater 5 Not Deserve To Enter This Mall Before the words "Mrs. Hilton" came out of Emmett's mouth, he was interrupted by a loud voice. "Hi, there! It's you." Debbie approached him and pulled him to the side before he could even react. He stood still and looked at her in confusion. "Mrs. Hilton, what's the matter? Mr. Hilton hasn't seen you yet, so I want to introduce you to him." Debbie wanted to laugh at the moment. She and Carlos had been married for three years, but they still needed someone else to introduce them to each other. Debbie leaned over and whispered, "Thank you, Emmett, but there's no need for that. I've already asked Philip to give him the divorce agreement I've signed, so there's no need for us to know each other personally." "What divorce agreement? Are you going to divorce Mr. Hilton?" Emmett was so shocked that he took a step back and stared at Debbie in astonishment. He couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with her brain. Carlos was a rich man. Why would she take the initiative to ask for a divorce? Debbie grasped the hem of her dress and said shyly, "Yes. But to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, please keep it a secret for us." When Emmett came back, Carlos had just finished paying for the things that Olga had bought. His cold eyes rested on Emmett's face for a moment. And when he remembered that he was kissed by Debbie yesterday, his expression became gloomy. He remarked indifferently, "Emmett, whatever is your relationship with her, I don't care. But I want you to throw her out of Shining International Plaza immediately. Someone like her doesn't deserve to enter this mall." "But Mr. Hilton..." Emmett replied in a low voice. "Emmett, Mr. Hilton has already given you an order. Why don't you go and do it now?" Olga complacently interrupted before Emmett could continue. She was obviously pleased to hear what Carlos had said just now. She thought that Carlos wanted to drive Debbie out because of her. "But Mr. Hilton, she is..." Emmett was in a dilemma. The woman that Carlos wanted him to drive out was the wife of the owner of Shining International Plaza. How could he possibly do that? So he plucked up the courage to dissuade Carlos, hoping that Carlos would change his mind. But when he noticed Carlos's cold gaze, he didn't dare to say anything more. He turned to the bodyguards behind him and ordered, "Ask them to get out of here now." Emmett did his best to be still polite to Debbie. He felt so unlucky being caught between his boss and his boss' wife. Debbie had been listening to their conversation, so she heard that they wanted to drive her and her friends out. "You don't need to do anything. We're leaving now." After saying this, Debbie took the shopping bag from the saleswoman and left the store. Carlos watched her receding back with a trace of confusion in his dark eyes. Olga glared at Debbie's back and then adjusted her expression. She took Carlos's arm and said softly, "Mr. Hilton, I'm hungry now. Let's go to the fifth floor of Alioth, okay?" Carlos turned to Emmett and ordered, "Lead the way." Emmett cast aside all his doubts and hurriedly walked to the front to lead the way. Meanwhile, Debbie and her friends were already at the entrance of Shining International Plaza. All of a sudden, Debbie stopped, turned her head, and looked at Jared and Dixon. "Guys, thank you for carrying shopping bags for us. Let's have a meal in Alioth on the fifth floor first. My treat." What she said shocked Jared. He exaggeratedly slumped in the arms of Dixon, who was standing behind him. "Dixon... Is she out of her mind?" Actually, Dixon was also confused. Debbie was indeed behaving abnormally today. The food in Alioth cost an arm and a leg. Only a few people in Alorith could afford to dine there. Kasie calmly kicked Jared's foot and said, "Debbie's car is worth more than ten million dollars. Of course, she can afford to eat in Alioth. Are you underestimating her?" Jared felt that Kasie's words made sense. So he stood up straight and tidied up his clothes. But... Debbie could possibly afford to treat them to a meal in Alioth, but it was not easy to get a table there. People had to make a reservation in advance. So he said, "It's lunchtime now, so maybe there's no table available for us." He remembered that every time his father invited some important guests to a meal in Alioth, he had to make a reservation a week or half a month or even three months in advance. However, Debbie didn't hear Jared at all. She was preoccupied at the moment. Carlos, her husband, openly took another woman out shopping and bought things for her. If she was not mistaken, each of the shopping bags in Emmett's hands cost more than ten thousand dollars. Or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. Debbie's monthly allowance from Carlos was actually an enormous amount. But she thought that she was just a student and didn't need that much money, so she only took a small amount every time. And Philip seemed to have saved the rest for her. She didn't ask about it anymore. Debbie had never bought such expensive things for herself because she didn't want to squander Carlos's money. But the woman who was with him just said a word, and he paid for everything she bought. Debbie was Carlos's wife, so why should she pinch and scrape? Why should she think so much for him? She was not supposed to live frugally, right? Anyway, she was about to divorce him. So why not take this opportunity to enjoy a wealthy life? Debbie turned to look at her friends, who were still discussing Alioth. She thought it was only worth inviting them to a feast. So she took out her phone and called Philip. The call lasted for a minute. After hanging up, she turned to them again. Her friends, who had just discussed intensely, looked at her in astonishment. But she just said calmly, "Let's go." "To where?" Kristina asked cautiously. Debbie smiled and answered, "I'll treat you to a meal, right?" She then walked ahead to lead the way. A few minutes later, they arrived in Alioth. Debbie was waiting for the waiter to confirm the private room reserved under her name when the elevator on the fifth floor opened again. The man who came out first exuded such a powerful aura that no one could ignore him. Debbie clutched her chest in surprise. When she didn't mention divorce, she felt like seeing Carlos was more difficult than going to heaven. But ever since she brought up the divorce, this was the third time they had met. This time, she couldn't help wondering if Carlos was deliberately appearing in front of her to get her attention and save their marriage. "Throw her out!" These three simple words brought Debbie back to her senses. The floor manager wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and explained nervously, "Mr. Hilton, these are the guests arranged by Philip." Upon hearing Philip's name, Carlos glanced at the students, pointed at Debbie, and ordered, "Emmett, drive her out of here, and let the others stay." Olga, who had been silent all the time, almost burst into laughter. She still thought that Carlos was doing this because of her. Emmett, on the other hand, was so confused. Carlos didn't know Debbie at all. Why was he always against her? It seemed that he really hated her so much. Half a minute had passed, but Emmett still didn't react. Carlos lost his patience. He gave Emmett a sharp look and asked, "Emmett, can't you handle a trivial matter like this one?" Emmett was terrified. He immediately responded, "No, Mr. Hilton. It's not like that. It's just that she is... Actually, she is..."
