Chapter 1385
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âForbes Billionaires list? The most beautiful woman in the world? A son older than Evelyn?â Davis
recalled Carlosâ words once again in his mind, but he stopped there. There was no way he could make
it. Staring at the receding figures of the three, Davis suddenly realized something. Carlos was making a
joke.
âHey, wait. Was he talking about himself? Heâs one of the richest men in the world. Heâs powerful. His
wife is the loveliest singer. Of course heâd want someone just like him to vie for his daughterâs handâ¦â
Even after they were too far away to see Davis, Carlos still wore a dark expression, emanating
coldness. He wasnât happy with the idea that someone would marry his lovely daughter one day and
take her away from him. Debbie sighed helplessly.
âWhen did you get here? Why didnât you tell me you and Piggy were coming?â she asked
Carlosâ face softened a little, but his voice still sounded stern when he spoke.
âSo if I told you I was coming, would I see you eating with another guy?â
Debbie snapped nonchalantly, âWhat? You have a problem with me having dinner with my colleagues?â
Carlos didnât say anything else. He didnât dare. He didnât want to piss her off. At this point, his anger
had completely vanished, and he apologized tenderly, âNo. My bad. Sorry.â He pulled her closer to him
Debbie sneered, âCarlos, no need to apologize. Give me my daughter and you can leave now.â With
that, she reached out her arms to Piggy
Carlos held their daughter tightly and pulled away from Debbie while patiently coaxing, âI didnât fly all
the way out here to give you our daughter. Weâll wait till youâre done with work and go home together.â

He winked at his daughter. Evelyn got the hint and echoed, âMommy,
Daddy and I missed you. Donât make us go.â
âMake them go?â
Debbie took a deep breath and forced out a smile before explaining,
âMommy wonât make you go. Youâll stay with me. But Daddyâs a busy CEO, so we shouldnât keep him
from his workâ¦â
âHoney, that doesnât matter. Mom can run the company for me,â Carlos quickly chipped in, a cunning
smile on his face.
Debbieâs lips twitched. Miranda and Carlos were ganging up on her. She smirked, âQuit calling me
âhoney.â By the way, are you going to deal with James or not?â
With this name brought up, the playful smile on his face faded away
âOf course,â he said, a cold glint in his eyes. He had just seen James two days before. The sly old fox
should have figured out Carlos was back to normal. But they didnât talk about that. They just made
small talk.
âHeâs transferring his property. Some of the staff, cooperative projects and company assets are
involved in his case, including the branch company in New York. So I have to handle it carefully and
quietly,â Carlos explained. He knew Debbie wanted to see James Live out his remaining days in jail.
So he was collecting evidence of Jamesâ crimes, leaving no stone unturned. He had even employed a
third-party finance company to audit
Hilton Groupâs accounts, just in case.
As far as he knew, corruption and bribery had become commonplace in
Hilton Group when James took over as CEO. And it didnât stop with James
âmany employees were involved on some Level. But most of them had cleaned up their acts after
Carlos resumed his rightful place as head of the company.
