Chapter 1121
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âOh, Iâll come back later.â
âALL right, Stephanie.â
She went to her own room. No sooner had she put her purse on the table than her phone buzzed.
Kinsley had sent her a text.
âYou back in the hotel?â
She replied immediately, âYeah, I just got back.â
âToday was the happiest day of my life, spending it with you. I canât wait to see you again.â
Stephanie read the message but didnât reply to it.
She went back to Carlosâ room. He was super-busy. The members of the board were very unhappy
about Jamesâ affair. It was a stain on the company. They demanded he step down. Some of them even
told Carlos if he didnât take over as CEO, they would resign.
Debbie had caused a sensation on the Internet; the Hilton family was falling apart. Thanks to her, even
a multi-national corporation Like
Hilton Group was in chaos. Carlos was never more impressed than now.
Stephanie watched him answer one phone call after another. Even his forehead was frowning.
âHow did things get this bad?â she asked.
Carlos looked at her silently.
Actually, he knew.
She knew as well, and wasnât shy about pointing it out.
âYou should have gotten rid of that bitch when you had the chance. Debbie is a troublemaker, and you
let her get away with it.
At first it was just a personal feud between her and your father. Now even the company is affected.
Hilton Group is now in trouble, and if you remove her, the problem goes away.â
âListen to you! Hilton Groupâs troubles are because of James, no one else,â Carlos retorted.
Debbie was only a woman. If Carlos wanted to stop her, she would be stopped.
Stephanie knew what he was thinking.
âTrue, but itâs not like youâll do anything, anyway.â
Again, she had hit the nail on the head.
He stayed there for no more than three days. After that, Carlos headed to the headquarters in his home
city. He had to take care of this scandal once and for all.
Reporters had gathered at the entrance of Hilton Groupâs offices, waiting for an opportunity to interview
James. This was seriously juicy gossip, and even sound bites would mean more clicks online.
Some employees were milling about in the crowd. They were holding white banners decrying James,
calling him âscumbagâ and âliar.â Their chanting was lost in the din, until you got close to them. Then it
was clear-they didnât want James as their CEO.
