Chapter 1416
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Debbie was her bridesmaid, and she insisted that Carlos serve as the best man.
With the great CEO as the best man and the superstar as the bridesmaid, the wedding was rather eye-
catching. All the paparazzi were there, snapping pic after pic. Even after the ushers had escorted the
worst offenders out, they waited outside, hoping to get an exclusive with any of the wedding party.
Then Debbie focused on getting her new album ready, while Carlos kept himself busy with work, taking
care of his daughter and courting his ex-wife.
One day, Carlos was finally able to relax at Lunch instead of being chained to his desk. He called
Debbie.

âHey baby. Want to catch a show with me tonight?â
âWhat show?â she asked curiously.
âRemember when you were on the operating table? Were you scared?â he asked in a low voice.
âWhat? When?â Debbie wasnât sure what he was talking about.
âWhen James threatened Evelynâs life, and forced you to divorce me and leave Alorith,â Carlos said.
Debbieâs heart skipped a beat.
âOf c-course. Wh-why?â she stammered.
âBecause I swore Iâd make James pay for what he did to you.â
âAnd?â Debbie had a bad feeling about this.
âIâLL pick you up tonight. Weâll watch a reality show together. Live audience, front row seats.â
Debbie didnât know how to respond. âA reality show? It seems Like no matter where James holes up,
Carlos always hunts him down.â
After hanging up, Debbie put off all her work that night. She was too curious about exactly what was
going down. When Carlos came to pick her up, she was waiting for him at the entrance.
He got out of his car, kissed her, and tied her scarf for her, tucking part of it into her pink overcoat.
Gallantly, he offered her his hand, and they walked hand in hand to the vehicle.
The car rolled to a stop in front of a hospital. Debbie recognized the place-Niles worked here.
After they got out, Carlos held her waist tightly, ignoring her protests. They went inside the building
together.
Debbie snapped at him, âWhen I first met Niles, I was injured. But someone didnât offer to give me a
ride, and didnât even look at me. I was a wreck then.â
Carlos knew the guy she was talking about. It was him. Feeling guilty, he kissed her hair and
apologized, âIâm so sorry, honey. I swear it wonât happen again.â
While they were walking to the elevator, Debbie cast a scornful glance at him and snorted, âYouâre such
a liar. I only believe about a third of what you say.â
Carlos curled his lips and said, âHow about this?â
âHow about what?â
âI love you. I love you. I love you. Nine words. Believe a third of them, and that would be three.â âYou
can believe that I Love you.â This was what he meant.
