But I think, deep down, Carmelita actually loved Sly.

She just couldn't accept it because of their "professional differences."

Deep down, they both cared for each other, hence why Carmelita said, "Sly, I--"
"I know. Me too."
And there'd been multiple times in the series that Carmelita shows her affections to Sly. The blushes after they kiss...you think there's a reason why she never truly caught Sly?
