Chapter 714
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Mrs. Hilton now, she had to keep a polite smile on her face. She grabbed a plate of desserts that the
waiter had brought to her and apologized, âLadies, Iâm sorry. Iâm starving. Ta ta for now.â
She was obviously saying goodbye to them. A quick way to end the conversation. But strangely
enough, they didnât get the hint. Or maybe they feigned ignorance so they could stay longer. The
questions stopped, and the nagging began.
âItâs too late for you to be eating anything, Mrs. Hilton.â âOooh! That Looks sinful! You should watch
your figure.â âAre you trying to put on the pounds?â
âYouâre in such good shape! Why would you want to be fat?â âCareful,
Carlos may not like you if you put on weight. You definitely need to watch your weight-a rich handsome
man Like Carlos has a Lot of girls to choose from.â
âIs Hayden really your ex-boyfriend?â
Debbieâs head started to pound. She needed to either flee or get rid of them, otherwise she might go
mad. This evening was not going well, certainly not the way she envisioned. What were these women
doing here?
Why werenât they at least window shopping for all the jewelry and watches at the exposition? Why were
they poking their nose into her business? Why couldnât they just leave her alone? ALL these women
were such a pain and-wait⦠Maybe Carlos revealed her identity so that she wouldnât be able to keep
tabs on him.
In the end, Debbie put down the desserts, deliberately clattering the plates on the counter. She was
loud, trying to get their attention. She ran her eyes over the group and asked, âHowâs the jewelry?â
Confused, the women answered in chorus, âThe jewelry is amazing!â
Everything on display was beautiful and luxurious. From sparkling tiaras to gem-encrusted hairpins,
from necklaces, chokers, and earrings to diamond-studded bracelets. A dizzying array of gems, rubies
emeralds, opals, pearls, and polished pieces of jade. Even rings and cuff links. And some of the finest
timepieces expertly crafted by Swiss watchmakers. But the prices were too high
If their husbands were as rich as Carlos, they would have already bought all of the jewelry here and
brought their favorites home with them.
âAnd what about the watches?â Debbie continued to ask.
Again, the women replied in confusion, âThe watches are great!â
âSince everything looks awesome, maybe you should spend more of your precious time appreciating
them. Iâm not as interesting as all that ice out there. I shouldnât be the focus here. Please!â Debbie
waved at them with a smile.
âYouâre being modest, Mrs. Hilton. Youâre more attractive than those jewelry and watchesâ¦â
âYes, I think so. Mrs. Hilton, are you still a student? Where do you go to university?â
Meanwhile, more and more spectators arrived, adding to the group gathered around Debbie. Debbie
was on the brink of a meltdown. âJesus!
Save me from idiots! Please!â she exclaimed in her head.
She knew it. That was why she didnât want to expose her identity. Now, where was the bad man who
had let the whole world know about it?
Couldnât he see that she was surrounded by a Large group of people? Why didnât he come back and
save her?
Left with no choice, Debbie put on her high heels again and squeezed through the crowd that had
gathered in the lounge.
âIâm sorry. I need to look for my friends. Please enjoy yourselves!â
She broke free of the hangers-on, practically pushing her way through the crowd. Debbie limped
through the hall to Look for Carlos, Kasie or her other friends.
But she didnât see any of them. Instead, she spotted Wesley and Megan
