Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Carlos was so unapproachable. They felt it didn’t make sense for him to marry a plain girl Like Debbie.

“Hayden?” Sebastian tried to remember the man.

“He just came home from abroad recently, but in a short time, with the help of his powerful family, he’s already quite influential in Alorith. I don’t know much about him, though. I’ll do a background check on him later,” he promised.

“That’s not necessary. Since he’s Debbie’s husband, she has agreed to bring him here for dinner some day. We’ll know more when he comes.”

“Okay,” Sebastian agreed.

When Debbie got to the villa, Carlos wasn’t back home from work yet.

When she passed by the Living room, she saw the tens of bags of various sizes on the floor. It was only then that she remembered she had been on a shopping spree before she had gone to her aunt’s.

Even she herself was shocked by the number of the extravagance. When did she become so wasteful? Was that the right kind of influence she was picking from Carlos? On the nightly shopping spree, she had gone to Shining International Plaza to buy a tobacco pipe for Sebastian. But on impulse, she had visited the cosmetics shop, which happened to be running a sales promo.

She was lured by a sales assistant who pushed a pitch of ridiculously discounted items.

But when Debbie got to the counter to pay for what she had picked, she realized she had been tricked. She hated their bait and switch sales tactics, but she didn’t want the embarrassment of appearing that she was a flat broke ass, so she just accepted the items. With a kit of hydrating toner, lotion, and cream

going at $10, 000, the prices were simply over the top, forcing her to call Carlos for his opinion before she paid for anything. It was his money after all. To her surprise, he upbraided her.

“Debbie, I have loads of money that you’ll never finish a fraction in a thousand Lifetimes. You can’t afford to be a penny pincher when you have my money and my heart, dear. If you ever hesitate again to spend the money, I’LL move the most expensive cosmetics shop in the Shining

International Plaza into your bedroom,” he warned.

After the brief call, Debbie leisurely walked back to the counter and paid for the cosmetics without batting an eyelid. She had been hesitant about the hydration essence and face mask a moment ago, but after his nudging on the phone, there was not a thing she’d leave out.

After paying, she called him once more and proudly anounced, “Mr

Handsome, I just blew $36, 570 on the damn things. A good treat, huh?”

Carlos was glad that she finally bought herself something fancy, but

Debbie despised that needless obscene spending

“ALL the skin care products are having a sales promotion now. The customers who have spent $200, @00 or more will get a free 8-day trip to the Maldives. Accommodation, refreshments, transportation, all included. Deb, wouldn’t you fancy an all expenses paid trip to the

Maldives?” Carlos asked.

Debbie nodded violently, “Yes, yes, I do. But… how can I manage to spend so much money on one night’s shopping spree?”

The so-called free trip would only be a fraction of the money spent at the mall first. Annoyed by the manipulative sales gimmicks, she passed by as if she hadn’t heard what the sales crew were touting.

“What have you bought?” Carlos asked on the phone.

After hearing Debbie out, he continued, “Go buy two more sets of the same items, if you don’t mind. In addition, you can also buy some lipsticks and other cosmetics. Stay away from the cheap ones, please.”

Debbie was astounded.
