Chapter 1264
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âOkay. Hmmâ¦let me think. Iâd better let my aunt know. She might reconsider letting Sasha divorce
you.â
âHey, no, donât do that, Tomboy⦠Waitâ¦â Debbie ruthlessly hung up on him. Stunned, Jared stared at
his cellphone in silence. After a while he put it down, and a smile spread across his face. He knew she
was poking fun at him again. That was what they did. He was pretty sure happy days were close. Sheâd
get back with Carlos, and that meant good things for her friends.
Debbie picked up Piggy and Jus from Curtisâ house, and drove them to the manor. Carlos was still at
work
As she thought, there were maids already there. As soon as she pulled in, they swarmed around her
and greeted her enthusiastically. One of them said, âWelcome, Debbie. Carlos requested that we take
care of you and the kids.â
âThank you.â Debbie got out of the car with Jus in her arms, while a housemaid held Piggyâs hand and
walked with her into the villa.
Dinner was ready by the time Carlos came home. When he opened the door to the villa, he heard the
childrenâs chirpy laughter echoing around the house. He smiled, knowing that Debbie and the kids were
here
His weariness he felt from a hard dayâs work vanished into the air Like smoke in a gale. He changed
into his slippers and put the briefcase in a corner. Then he walked into the living room, shrugging off his
suit jacket.
âCarlos.â A housemaid took the suit jacket from his hands and hung it on the wooden hanger on the
coatrack.

Debbie was feeding Jus porridge when she heard the housemaid greet
Carlos. She turned her head, but before she could call out to him, a little figure excitedly ran towards
the man.
It was Piggy. The little girl had thrown her sippy cup aside and was clumsily running to Carlos. As she
ran, she called out excitedly,
âUncle Carlos, you came!â
A broader smile crept across his face when he saw the cute little girl.
He strode over, bent down and scooped her up in his arms. After pecking her cheek, he asked, âDid
you miss me?â
âMiss you a lot!â Piggy wrapped her Little arms around his neck, resting her head against his broad
shoulder.
Carlos gently patted her back as he carried her into the dining room.
Seeing Carlos with Piggy, Jus inarticulately babbled, âBaba⦠Hiâ¦â
The little boy looked at the handsome man with curiosity. Debbie reminded the boy, âJus, you can call
him Uncle.â âBaba? Did he mean brother? Heâs already more than thirty. Does he look that young to
Jus?â Debbie wondered and shifted her gaze to the man. âWellâ¦he does
Look young.â
Jus nodded and greeted again, âUncle⦠Hi
Carlos touched Jusâ head and teased, âUncle? Debbieâs your cousin, and
Iâll beâ¦your cousin-in-law soon enough.â
Debbie got all choked up by what he said. Caught off-guard, she blushed and rolled her eyes at him.
âJust eat,â she said angrily.
