Chapter 464
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Portia fixed her eyes on the ring immediately when she saw it, and knew it was precious. Certainly
more than any of them could afford. Even an idiot could tell that ring was priceless.
Shocked at the size of Debbieâs ring, Portia started to study her accessories.
She found out that the plain-looking ear studs Debbie wore were actually worth hundreds of thousands
of dollars.
The shoes she was in cost nearly twenty thousand.
âSo, is Debbie really married to a secretary?â
But Emmett was Carlosâ secretary. It made sense to Portia that he could afford these things.
âI Like stealing other menâs wives. Itâs exciting. Be my girlfriend
Iâll buy you two rings just like the one you have. What do you say?â
Lewis said shamelessly.
Debbie couldnât believe her ears. She Looked at the man who was smiling at her evilly. âHeâs flirting
with me right in front of Portia. So did
I get it wrong? Maybe theyâre not here to talk about their engagement?â
Her thoughts were interrupted by her ringtone. She pulled out her phone, and saw it was Carlos. She
walked away from Lewis and took the call.
âIâm heading back,â she told Carlos.
When she was back inside the booth, Carlos took her hand under the table and asked, âYou were gone
for awhile. Where did you go?â
âI came across a friend. We talked,â she answered casually.
âOkay. Are you full?â
âYeah.â
âLetâs go then.â Carlos held Debbieâs hand and stood up.
Debbie was speechless. âLeaving the table as soon as he is stuffed,
Carlos is so arrogant.*
Seeing Carlos stand up, the others all followed. Someone took his and
Debbieâs coats for him. A couple of guests helped them get their coats on, and someone else opened
the door for him.
Their enthusiasm made Debbie sick. But not Carlos. Her husband was expressionless, as if he were
accustomed to it.
Once they were out of the building, they got into the car.
âIâll drop you off at the manor, but I have to go back to the office. Itâs work.â
