Clearly, you have two solutions, when you probably only need one solution
with two projects.

A solution is just a collection of projects. It doesn't actually do
anything when it comes to the compiler. Visual Studio cares (but Visual
Studio is an IDE, not a compiler). The C# compiler only cares about
projects, and will produce a single assembly for each project.

Therefore, you can have project A in solution A, as well as in solution B
and solution C.

So, to meet your needs, since you are debugging project B in the context of
project A, perhaps you should have a single solution with both projects in
it.

Solution A contains
   Project A
   Project B

Solution B contains
   Project B
