Chapter 550
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Hayden was reduced to silence again. After a while, he stood up, came to her, pulled her to her feet,
and embraced her tightly.
âDid you know
I was so worried about you when I learned you married Carlos I immediately booked a ticket to New
York? Do you really think he can manage a big company like Hilton Group without being underhanded
and scheming? Impossible. Heâs known as a ruthless businessman. Even if you donât Love me, Let me
in. Donât push me away. Iâll wait for you, until the day you finally figure out who he really is. Youâll come
back to me.
â Debbie was only human. When someone she had once loved whispered to her how much he cared
about her, she froze and didnât know how to turn him down.
Hayden went on, âI wonât get married to anyone else. IâLL wait for you
When Carlos hurts you, Iâll be waiting. My arms are your harbor. You loved me once, but I never
stopped loving you.
Babe, I know itâs too late, but I wonât give up. My life is a dark place without you. Iâm a walking zombie. I
work my ass off at Gomez
Group. I do it for you. I used to be a jerk, I know. Thatâs why I want to make money, a Lot of money. I
want to give you everything.â
Words like âno,â ânever,â âcanâtâ were on the tip of Debbieâs tongue, but she didnât have a chance to cut
in. She was waiting for him to calm down and then to turn him down.
Howeverâ¦
âHayden, I see you came to New York to declare your love for my wife.
How touching!â a familiar and cold voice said. His voice was like a thunderbolt over Debbieâs head.
She pushed Hayden away in a fluster. Nonetheless, when she turned around, she saw Carlos sitting
comfortably in an armchair. He seemed to have been there for a while.
Her face went pale. She trotted over to Carlos and said, âCarlosââ
Before she could continue, Carlos took her hand, stood up, and strode towards Hayden with her.
Hayden, however, wasnât nervous at all at Carlosâ sudden appearance. He held out his right hand
confidently to shake hands with him.
âCarlos, what a coincidence!â
âYeah, it is.â They shook hands just as they had the other day in the restaurant. Debbie watched them,
her mouth agape.
As if nothing had happened, Hayden invited them to sit with him.
âCare for a cup of coffee?â
Carlos shook his head and wrapped his arm around Debbieâs waist. After giving her an affectionate
look, he replied, âNo, thanks. My wife is kinda snacky, and I have another cafe in mind. If youâll excuse
me.
Bye, Hayden.â
âWhen did I say I was hungry?â Debbie wondered.
But she was more confused by the weird interaction between the two men.
She watched them, holding her breath, and didnât dare to say anything.
