Chapter 784
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
He and Carlos would never spare anyone who dared to hurt Debbie.
After hanging up on Carlos, Curtis dialed another number.
âHey bro
Itâs me, Curtis. My wedding is set for next month. Do come and attend the banquet .
At the Gomez Group
In her four-inch high heels, Portia entered the hall of the huge building.
âMiss Portia.â
âHello, Miss Portia.â
Employees stopped and greeted her warmly as she passed by them.
Portia, however, didnât even spare a glance at them. She remained emotionless and entered the lift in a
hurry.
She headed straight to the top floor and pushed open the door to the
CEOâs office without knocking.
âHayden! Our headmasterâs secretary just called me. Originally, I was supposed to be attending a
fashion show on behalf of the college. But he told me that I was weeded out. Hayden, you have to help
me!â she complained.
Hayden, who was working on some important documents, put aside his pen and rubbed his arching
eyebrows.
âPortia, youâve gone too far this time,â he said. âAnd itâs rude to barge in without knocking, â he added in
his mind.
Portiaâs eyes widened.
âHayden, your own sisterâs career is being destroyed. Yet all you have to say is that Iâve gone too far?â
She couldnât believe it.
Hayden stood up from his seat and went over to her. He patted on her shoulder and said, âLet me
guess. You must have offended Debbie again, huh?â He had also crossed Carlos, who in return, had
done something unbelievable to the Gomez Group in retaliation. The companyâs shares had dropped
dramatically, and Hayden had to work over time for more than a month to make up for the loss.
He hadnât had the time to contact Debbie or fly to England to visit her during the last month.
Portia was fuming. âDamn it! Does Carlos have his magical umbrella over the entire city? He has
already found out what I had done and even got back at me so quickly!â she thought angrily.
Recently, she had gone through days when everything had gone utterly wrong-she had no commercials
in hand at all. And it was all because of
Debbie! In order to make her happy, Carlos had shut Portia out of the entertainment circle. That was
why Portia had asked the pregnant woman to go to Debbie and drive a wedge between her and Carlos.
She had done it in a fit of rage. She hadnât thought that Carlos would dig out the truth so soon.
Her eyes brimmed with tears as she yelled at Hayden, âWhy would Carlos fall in love with a woman
who was dumped by you? I thought a CEO like him would have better taste in women. Is he blind?
Whatâs so good about her? She must have seduced him with her fake innocence!â She couldnât accept
the reality. She hated to admit that Carlos preferred Debbie over her.
Hayden poured a glass of water for her and said casually, âDeb is a good girl. You are blinded by
hatred.â He really felt sorry for Debbie; his sister and mother had mistreated her.
