Chapter 329 I Know Carlos Well

Raising his eyebrows, Niles was left utterly dumbfounded. A wealthy and good-looking man, he had rarely been turned down by women. But in that very moment, a gorgeous woman just refused his offer. That being said, he couldn't help himself from taking a good hard look at her once more.

Truly as pretty as a picture, she was wearing a white waisted blouse matched with a latte ankle-length skirt, and sporting a pair of stilettos. It was such a sight to see; she just appeared so fashionable and elegant. The way she carried herself gave Niles a good impression of her. He promptly stepped out of the car, opened the passenger door for her, giving her a soft smile. "Don't mention it. We're friends, aren't we? And friends should lend each other a helping hand, isn't that right, Miss Nian?"

'Since when have we been such good friends? When did Carlos find a friend like this? So cheerful and kind?' Debbie pondered to herself for a second there.

"It would be totally fine for you to sit in the passenger seat. I'm not taken," Niles went on.

Upon hearing that, Debbie was amused. "I'll take you up on that offer then," she replied. Since Niles had been quite insistent, Debbie stepped foot into the car and proceeded to sit in the passenger seat.

After asking Debbie where she was gonna be heading, he drove over to the place she mentioned.

For a little while, none of them said anything to each other as they were on their way. Some relaxing music was being played on the speakers, and one of the songs caught Debbie by surprise. "By any chance, do you like this song?" she asked Niles the second the song started.

Glancing over at the video player, Niles answered, "Yes. I've actually been listening to it for a couple of days now. Unfortunately, the artist's name isn't indicated anywhere in that video. It's just so heart-breaking. Whenever I listen to it, I feel like crying, as though I'd just broken up with my girlfriend. But truth be told, I've never fallen in love before."

That last part cracked Debbie up. "Maybe you should give Irene's songs a listen then. They are uplifting and energetic, much like the style you prefer. I think you might like them."

"I've heard of Irene. She is a well-known singer in Z Country, isn't she?"

Debbie quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, indeed she is. And on top of that, she is a really nice person as well." As she told him things about one of her closest friends, she had a smile on her face.

"Do you know her personally?" Niles asked, looking at her with curiosity written all over his face.

"Yeah, I sure do. She's a friend of mine," Debbie told him straight away. For some reason, she felt at ease being around Niles, so she learned to trust him.

"Really? The two of you are friends? Then what is your line of wor

he moment Carlos and Niles finally reached the club, Damon and Wesley had already been waiting for about an hour. Damon had never been the patient type. "You finally showed up. What took you so long? I thought the two of you eloped or something," he grumbled.

Awkwardly trying to explain the situation, Niles replied, "Something came up at the hospital. I had no choice but to work a bit of overtime. Carlos dropped by the hospital."

Pouring them a glass of wine each, Damon fixated his gaze at Niles and asked him, "Do you enjoy being a doctor?"

Shaking his head, Niles protested, "Not a single bit. Patients would always be coming in left and right. To make matters worse, more and more medical records are piling up on top of all the operations."

Looking at Niles unsympathetically, Wesley remarked, "You're the one who chose that." Wesley already lost count of how many times he had talked to Niles about this, hoping that his younger brother would enlist in the army alongside him. But much to his dismay, Niles had always dreamt of being a doctor.

Brushing his hair, Niles retorted, "It might be tiresome, but I still think it's much better than being in the army. The rigorous training the soldiers have to go through just isn't for me." He had always wondered how the soldiers made it through such harsh conditions. 'Wesley is such a brutal and relentless leader. Don't they ever get worried that they might meet their end through his hands one day?'

Resting his hand on Niles' shoulder and patting him, Damon commented, "It takes an uncompromising commander to build up a strong army. You should realize that it's your brother's toughness that's helping those people to turn into remarkable soldiers. All of them are considered elites. When they go on a mission, every single one of those men would be capable of fighting several enemies."
