Chapter 127
Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Chapter: 128
Kristina was about to help Debbie when Kasie grabbed her hand while shaking her head.
âHow can Kristina not see that Debbie and Carlos have a special relationship? Debbie is our best
chance to get off the hook.â
Carlos sat down in the armchair and slowly lit a cigarette while Debbie was waiting for his response.
However, Carlos remained silent. Having run out of patience, Debbie said, âSince you arenât saying
anything, I take it that you have given us your acquiescence.â
âNo problem, just as long as you drink all ten crates of beer yourself,â he said casually as his fingers
slid on the screen of his phone. When he found Tristanâs phone number, he typed, âGo home.â
âCarlos, Sir, Debbie is a girl. Certainly she canât drink all the beer by herself. Let me drink with her,â
Jared put in. When he heard that
Debbie had taken all the responsibilities, his legs were not shaking anymore and he jumped off the sofa
instantly
Whatever relationship Debbie and Carlos had, Kasie didnât think it mattered anymore.
âCarlos, they will die if you make them drink all that beer.â
Then Dixon broke in, âI am also to blame for the party. I should be punished with them.â
âMe too,â said Kristina.
Carlosâ eyes shifted from one to another.
âVery touching. Your friendship is deeper than I thought.â
Debbie had heard that before, but when Carlos said it, she couldnât help shivering.
âOf course. Weâre old friends,â she said defiantly.
âIf you donât want to drink the beer, okay then,â he announced.
The kids felt a huge relief when they heard that. But unfortunately,
Carlos wasnât finished yet.
âBut youâll have to agree to study abroad next year,â he said to Debbie.
Carlos had been in management for nearly ten years, but he had mostly been managing subordinates.
This girl, his wife, however, was a totally different ball game altogether
Lately, she had been attending all her classes and hadnât been in a single fight. However, every time he
thought of her weak English, it pained him. And now, the mess in the Living room and not to mention
the alcohol abuseâ¦
ALL this had given him a new kind of headache. However, he still didnât want a divorce.
He thought maybe she would be more focused if she studied overseas, where she was away from her
friends.
Back at home, when Jared went upstairs, his legs were weak as jello. As soon as he saw his father,
Jasper Hampton, he embraced him immediately, close to tears.
âDad, I swear I wonât drink a drop of alcohol in the next month.â
