Chapter 1165
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Debbie pursed her lips and complained in her mind, âNot picky? Heâd make the book of Guinness World
Records for the pickiest eater.â
Carlos, of course, noticed that.
âWhat? You got a problem?â he asked.
âNo, no. Iâm going to the kitchen now.â
Debbie left the study in a hurry. On her way to the kitchen, she wondered what she should cook for
Carlos.
A half-hour later, Debbie appeared at the door of the study carrying a bowl of noodles topped with
sliced tomato and scrambled eggs. The odor of food was like a trigger, and Carlosâ stomach started
rumbling the moment he smelled it. He put his laptop aside and watched as she placed the bowl before
him with great care.
âItâs Late, so donât eat too much.

Iâll make breakfast for you in the morning. Cool?â
âMmm hmm.â He took over the chopsticks from her.
While he was eating, she felt kind of bored and walked towards the bookshelf. Suddenly, she
remembered something and offered, âThere are more noodles if youâre still hungry.â
âSure.â
Debbie giggled and went downstairs again.
In the end, Carlos finished two bowls of noodles. He really was hungry.
While Debbie was doing the dishes in the kitchen, Carlos went downstairs. Watching her clean, he
flashed a smile, as a feeling of warmth coursed through him.
Debbie turned off the light in the kitchen and walked out. She then saw
Carlos relaxing on the couch, watching TV.
âDid you finish your work?â she asked curiously.
âYeah.â Carlos stood up from the sofa and turned off the TV.
âI think you should stay here. Itâs safer.â
Debbie shook her head.
âI have to find more evidence to clear my name.â
And that was when it hit her. âCarlos used to be close to Megan. Now sheâs dead, and Iâm the suspect.â
She looked him in the eye.
âYou donât think I killed Megan, do you, old man?â
Carlos cast a sidelong glance at her.
âI donât think youâd be out in the dark alone.â
