Chapter 703
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
She had already rejected Carlos, and the latter had decided to attend it with Portia. So she had to go to
the expo with Gregory.
After hanging up, Debbie went to the walk-in closet to pick out her dress. She left her phone in the
bedroom.
In the meantime, Carlos kept calling her. He had earlier switched her phone to mute mode while she
was asleep. She was only able to answer
Gregoryâs call because she happened to be playing on her phone at the time. Carlos called her several
times, but she wasnât aware of it.
At Hilton Group
Carlos stood by the French window, his phone in his hand. Zelda stood before his desk, holding her
breath.
After a long time, Zelda swallowed hard and broke the silence.
âCarlos,
Portia has been waiting for you for thirty-five minutes now,â she said nervously.
Since Debbie wasnât answering his call, Carlos had no other choice.
âFine, Iâll go with her.â
Zelda nodded and was about to leave when he added, âLet my wife know.â
She couldnât believe her ears, so she had to confirm.
âLet Mrs. Hilton know that you are attending the expo with Portia, sir?â She really couldnât believe that
the intelligent CEO would be so childish sometimes.
Well, Emmett and Tristan had already gotten used to their bossâs abnormal behaviors when it came to
his wife. However, it was Zeldaâs first time dealing with this.
âHmm.â Carlos put his phone on the desk and walked towards the Lounge.
He knew what was on Zeldaâs mind, but didnât bother to explain. âI have a possessive wife, and I have
to play along, â he thought. He didnât realize that he was the same as well.
Last time, when he had gone to the fashion show with Portia, Debbie saw it on TV and smashed it into
pieces.
He didnât want to piss her off this time, so he tried calling her many times. But she didnât answer.
Zelda would have to tell her on his behalf. âIf Debbie calls me after learning about this, Iâll pick her up
and declare something important to the public using this opportunity.
If she acts as if nothing happened⦠No. That wonât happen. I know her well, â he thought with a smirk.

all kinds of people.
The jewelry and watch exposition was being held by Hilton Group. The company had been preparing
