Chapter 485
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Every one of her questions was answered.
âAargh! Gail suddenly screamed so loud her voice startled the other three women in the villa.
Debbie looked at Gail, astonished, but Gail screamed at her again.
âDebbie, why did you get to marry Carlos?! Why? Aargh! That relationship must fail!
âGail must be crazy!â Debbie thought.
Lucinda knew that Gail was acting unreasonably because she couldnât take the news well. She felt
physically and mentally exhausted. Even she herself didnât know how Gail had turned out to be like
that.
Sitting on the sofa listlessly with red eyes, Gail mumbled to Debbie,
âWhen we were little, Grandpa often bought you princess dresses. When you wore your pretty Little
dress and ignored me with other kids, I swore I would marry better and be happier than you when we
grew up.â
Gailâs maternal grandpa, that was, Debbieâs paternal grandpa, had spoiled Debbie when he was alive.
He was always buying new clothes for her.
On the other hand, Gailâs paternal grandpa was biased in favor of her male cousins and treated her
indifferently. Therefore, every time she saw her maternal grandpa spoil Debbie, she felt jealous
When Debbie was ten, the Nelson Group was given to the Loftus Group in payment for debts, and then
her grandpa passed away. Meanwhile, her father suffered from a rare illness, which cost at Least ten
million dollars in two years. From then on, Debbie was no longer a princess
When the Nelson familyâs financial woes began, only Lucinda and
Sebastian had helped them, and Debbie had been invited to the Murphy familyâs house very often
Unable to stand the attention her parents were showering on Debbie,
Gail felt her space invaded, and soon in retaliation, she started to bully Debbie around.
Not to trouble her aunt and uncle, Debbie had stoically endured Gailâs bullying.
But one rainy day, Debbieâs endurance came to an end. That day,
Debbieâs dad was in the hospital in a coma. The doctors needed an adult relativeâs signature for the
operation. Debbie thought of her aunt, so she came to her house for help. However, it was Gail who
answered the door; and she wouldnât Let Debbie in.
If it had ended like that, Debbie wouldnât have hated her so much. That rainy night, Gail had pushed
Debbie into a kennel and kept her there with a dog for an entire night.
The next morning, a housemaid found Debbie when she went to the kennel to feed the dog. She was
shocked! Immediately, she woke up Sebastian and Lucinda. When the kennel was opened, in the biting
cold of late fall, Debbie was carried out unconscious and freezing. For three days, she remained
hospitalized, running a fever. Shocked at the heinous act,
Lucinda had given Gail a thorough flogging and for the next three days forced her to kneel in the
ancestral temple, until Debbie was discharged.
Debbie was surprised that Gail had brought up the things from their childhood. In Debbieâs memory,
when she was a child, her grandpa loved her the most. The things the other kids had, her grandpa
would make sure she had them too. She also had some things that no other kid had.
Her bedroom was packed with the princess dresses her grandpa had bought for her, just because she
Liked them.
While Debbie was lost in thoughts, Lucinda stood up, intending to lecture Gail. However, Debbie put
out an arm to stop her. Then she turned to Gail and said, âNobody was ignoring you. The other kids
and I wanted to play with you, but you always acted haughty, as if you were better than the rest of us.
Whenever we played in the garden, you always told your mom on us. With time, nobody wanted to play
with you anymore. You had made your bed, and you had to lie in it. Itâs so unfortunate that you havenât
outgrown that juvenile stuff yet. Aunt
Lucinda and Uncle Sebastian are so worried about you.
