Chapter 477
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Ignoring Lewis, who was too shocked to stand up, Carlos buzzed Emmett.
âGet in here. And bring some ice.â
Then he led Debbie to the couch, sat down and stroked her cheek softly.
âSo it was Portia?â
His voice was soft, but Debbie could somehow feel danger.
It came back to her now, how people used to describe Carlosâcruel and cold-hearted. Debbie grabbed
his hands and coaxed him, âHoney, cool down. I got even with her. I slapped her several times, and
even cut her hair. So just Let it go, okay?â
Carlos, however, was not easily convinced.
âLeave her to me,â he said.
A cold shiver ran down Debbieâs spine, as his tone suggested that he would kill Portia.
âDonât, Carlos. I donât care. It was nothing. Leave it to me, please.â
At this moment, Emmett came in with an ice pack and handed it to
Carlos.
Lewis was still lying on the floor, but Emmett didnât even blink.
However, when he spotted Debbieâs swollen cheek, he asked worriedly,
âDebbie, what happened? Did someone hit you? Does it hurt?â
âWho had the nerve to hit Carlosâ woman? Look at Debbieâs fair skin.
That must be stinging, â he thought.
The concern that Emmett showed towards Debbie really touched her heart.
âItâs all right. I feel much better now, but itâs nice of you to ask,â she said with a friendly smile.
âEmmett!â Carlosâ voice sounded as cold as ice.
Emmett shifted his gaze to his boss and answered, âYes, Carlos!â
âYour heart must be broken now, huh?â Carlos asked, emotionless.
Emmett nodded honestly. He always had a tender heart for women.
Besides, Debbie had always been nice to him.
Debbie somehow sensed something was not right with Carlos, and winked at Emmett.
