Chapter 474
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
âArenât you mad?â
âYes, Iâm mad, but not at you. Get Lewis on the phone.â
âEr O0-Okay⦠Hey, Mr. Jerk, itâs for you!â Carlos heard Debbieâs voice coming from the other end.
âMr. Jerk?â Carlos chuckled. âWell, sheâs not wrong.â
Confused, Lewis took over the phone.
âMe? Who is this?â
He saw the caller ID-Mr. Hiltonâand wondered, âAnother Hilton. Do I know him?â He asked casually,
âHello, who is this?â
âMe. The simple word scared Lewis to death-he recognized Carlosâ voice.
He eyed Debbie up and down, wondering who she was to Carlos.
âHey,
Carlos, whatâs up?â
Lewisâ words caught Portiaâs attention. âDid Carlos call Debbie?â
She looked back and forth between Debbie and Lewis and thought to herself, âWhy did Carlos call
Debbie? How are they related?â
After Carlos said something, Lewis nodded immediately.
âOkay. I get it.
Iâll be there soon.â
After hanging up, Lewis fixed his gaze on Debbie. After a long time, he decided to take her with him to
meet Carlos.
âLetâs get going.â He grabbed her wrist.
Debbie shook off his hand in disgust and snapped, âWhere? Why should I go with you?â
âIâm heading to my cousinâs office. This is your fault. And you need to tell him.â Lewis didnât know why
he had to take Debbie with him, but he had a gut feeling that he would be much safer if he took Debbie
to meet his cousin.
Ralph, who had just sent two patrolmen away, approached them and offered, âLewis, Miss Debbie, Iâll
get the car.â
Debbie bid Kasie goodbye and was about to get into the car when Portia grabbed her arm-hard.
âNo! Weâre not done Portia yelled. Her men would arrive in a few minutes. She had no intention of
letting Debbie off the hook so easily.
Before Debbie could respond, Lewis pulled Portia away and snapped impatiently, âGet the hell out of
here, Portia. I thought you were an ice queen, but youâre really as clingy as an octopus.â
He didnât love Portia; he just took it as a challenge to melt the ice queenâs heart. But now she was
getting on his nerves.
