Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Chapter: 65

Debbie had passed by the building so many times, which was one of the landmarks of Alorith. Even so, had it not been for Emmett sharing the company address with her, she would not have remembered that it was where Carlos worked.

As far as she knew, Hilton Group had businesses in many industries such as high-technology, real estate, cosmetics, clothing, and entertainment.

As the boss of such a colossal group, despite his age, Carlos was highly respected. His success and competence spoke for itself.

Somewhat in awe, Debbie could only imagine the pressure and responsibilities that came with his work.

When she entered the building while holding the meal box, she ran into some people who had finished their work and were on their way out.

The young lady wore a white shirt underneath her coat, partnered with a pair of jeans and white sneakers while her purple hair was in a bun. A single glance at her was all it took to guess that she was a college student. Her young and vigorous vibe even convinced some onlookers that she might still be in high school.

Such a lovely girl did not often frequent their building, and hence, she was hard to miss. As more and more people stepped out of their offices, some of them began to wonder whom the girl was visiting there.

“Excuse me, miss, how can I help you?” Rhonda Wallace, who was a secretary, asked at the front desk when she noticed that Debbie was looking around like a Lost child. The more mature woman warily

sized her up and down. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“I’m here for Carlos Hilton,” Debbie answered nonchalantly. As soon as that name came out of her mouth, everyone who was within earshot turned to gaze at her in bewilderment.

‘Who is this girl? What’s the nature of her relationship with Boss?

Nobody has dared to call him by his full name, ‘ Rhonda wondered.

Wherever Carlos was concerned, people addressed him as respectfully as they could. Therefore, it was always either Mr. Carlos or Sir… never

Carlos Hilton.

“Are you a fan of Carlos’?” Rhonda asked, her chin raised. There was a hint of contempt in her smile. Before the young university student could reply, she spoke again.

“I’m sorry. Carlos is very busy. I’m afraid he does not have time to meet fans today.”

Tens, sometimes even hundreds of people, came to see the influential man every day. But as their boss’ status was beyond average people’s dreams, not everyone was fortunate enough to be graced with his presence. ‘And certainly, not a university student like this girl, ‘

Rhonda thought to herself.

“I’m not his fan,” Debbie was quick to answer.

“I’m his… family.”

Few people were aware that she was married to Carlos. And with divorce on the table at any given moment, she did not see the point in having to disclose that information.

This time, Rhonda burst into laughter. Sarcasm and scorn were written all over her face, and she did not even bother to conceal them.

“Young girl, it’s wrong to lie. Carlos’ family is in the U.S. taking care of the company over there. Everybody knows it.” The secretary sneered, and continued, “Next time you come up with a lie, be prepared.”

After deriding Debbie, the older woman cast an impatient glance at her and waved her hand as though she were telling her to leave.

Debbie could not help but narrow her eyes at the woman.

“I’m not lying,” she said.
