Chapter 137
Chapter 137
Carlos left the villa but did not return. Instead, he called his three friends and asked them to hang out with him.
Robert was the first to receive Carlos‘ call. When he heard that, he did a double–take before asking in surprise. “Carlos, have you been in a good mood recently? I never expect you to ask us out! I’ll call Aaron and Brian right away. How about we go to the old place playing Texas Hold’em poker with chicks?”
“Let’s go somewhere else. Somewhere interesting,” said Carlos calmly.
If it weren’t for the fact that Robert was too excited to listen to Carlos‘ words carefully, he would definitely be able to hear the frosty in Carlos‘ tone.
Hearing this. Robert raised his eyebrows slightly and said in surprise, “Carlos, no way! A new place for fun? Okay, okay, it’s up to you. We’ll be on call!”
“OK, I’ll wait for you at the training ground.”
Without waiting for Robert’s reply, Carlos hung up the phone.
On the other end of the line, Robert was dumbfounded.
Did he hear it wrong just now? He seemed to hear “training ground“…
That could be considered hell on earth!
Robert immediately reached Aaron and Brian, and the three of them drove the car trembling with fear.
They quickly had an emergency meeting in the car.
Aaron narrowed his deep–set eyes slightly with his arms crossed. “Why didn’t you just say that Brian and I had something to do and couldn’t make it to the training ground? Why did you drag us into it?” he asked, looking at Robert with displeasure in
his eyes.
Meanwhile, Brian’s fat face was distorted, his forehead covered in sweat from anxiety.
He grabbed Aaron’s arm as if the latter was the only person that could help him.
“My dear buddy, you must save me! You’re the only one among us who’s tougher, and I’m the weakest. I’ll end up in bed for days if I fight with Carlos. I faint at the sight of puppy blood and I’m anemic, and I’m afraid of heights. I even have high blood pressure at a young age… If I practice with him, I’ll die!”
“Weakling, I hate weak men like you. Let go of me. I’m sick of you!” Aaron said with disgust.
“No, no, no! Buddy, you must save me!” Brian threw himself into Aaron’s arms and hugged him tightly.
Robert broke out in a cold sweat. “What’s wrong with Carlos? Didn’t he only go back to the training ground when he was in a bad mood? Did your brother mess with him again?”
“He has a mission these days, and he’s not in Caurtine. How is that possible? Call Sam and ask if there’s anything wrong with the business.”
Hearing this, Robert quickly called Sam for help. Sam had already learned something from Susan.
Hearing this, the three of them suddenly realized that Carlos was frustrated in love.
But why did the three of them wound up being the miserable ones because Carlos was having a fight with his woman?
This training ground was once for new recruits. Later on, this piece of land was sold by the government and Carlos bought it for training.
Most of the equipment was still available, and there were two parts that were kept well. One was the shooting range and the other was the boxing stadium.
The three of them could handle it if Carlos wanted to practice shooting, but if it was boxing…
“Boxing…”
Brian felt that his life was in danger, and unable to take it anymore, he fainted on the spot.
Aaron looked at him with disdain. “We’re not on the ground yet. Drop the act!”
“I… I’ll practice in advance. Don’t expose me…”
He said quickly with only one eye open and then closed it.
It didn’t take long for the three of them to arrive at the door of the training ground.
As soon as Robert got out of the car, his legs went limp. Aaron, a tough man, couldn’t help but feel his scalp go numb.
Carlos was basically not a human when he was practicing boxing.
He could turn into an iron man who didn’t feel any pain or tiredness. He was always the one to attack and never defend.
How were they supposed to practice with him?
Aaron forced a smile and said. “Since we are already here, what else can we do? Let’s bite the bullet and face it!”
Aaron dragged Robert in, and Brian was carried in.
As soon as they entered, they breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing gunshots.
Brian nimbly rolled down from the stretcher. Patting his chest forcefully, he let out a long breath and said, “Thank goodness. It’s just shooting training. My life is saved.”
“Let’s go in and see Carlos!”
Aaron breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly. But the moment they entered, they frowned and their faces grew serious.
They saw Carlos practice shooting with both hands at the same time. Although it was just a machine gun, the recoil force was very strong.
Each shot had a strong recoil. Carlos‘ arm was still wrapped in gauze, and blood was dripping from it onto the yellow sand.
There were many drops of blood on the sand.
The three of them quickly rushed in to stop him from the self–harming training.
Aaron frowned and said, “Carlos, what are you doing? Do you want to lose the arm?”
Up until now, Carlos had yet to regain peace of mind. The anxiety made him immune to pain.
When they brought it up, Carlos realized that the wound on his arm had split open again.
There was a doctor here, who soon came over and bandaged his wound.
They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Carlos‘ composed expression as he calmly wrapped himself in gauze. It seemed that Carlos didn’t intend to hurt himself.
“Carlos, what’s wrong with you?” asked Robert, swallowing in fear.
Carlos‘ behaviors were a bit strange.
“I’m troubled, Carlos said flatly.
“Is it because of your newlywed wife. Ms. White?” Aaron asked.
At his words, Carlos‘ face became slightly grave. He was silent for a moment before nodding.
“She didn’t know that I’m the one she was married to. I didn’t care about it at first, so I cold–shouldered her. When I realized that she was my wife, I found she loved someone else. I disdained restricting her with our marriage, and I also thought about giving her freedom, so I didn’t think there was a need to explain it.
“Now things have gone beyond my expectations. Now I have accepted her, and she got over the man she loved before. Logically speaking. I should make things clear, but I seem to have made a huge mistake.
“She can’t tolerate being lied to. If she finds out that I had been lying to her all the time, she would never forgive me. And now, I am interested in her and want the two of us could be a real couple, but she refused. The reason is that she thinks she
is Simon’s wife.
“Guys, what should I do?”
Carlos was at his wit’s end, so he called his three friends to discuss the countermeasures together.
