Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Elmer looked at the exquisitely packaged alcohol and felt an urge to cry. He just
sat there in stunned silence till someone nudged him. It was only then that he
managed one of the most stilted smiles before saying, “Really? I'm so honored.
Thank you, Carlos. Bottoms up.”
Debbie didn’t understand what Carlos was doing.
She wanted to ask him, but she felt too embarrassed to ask with so many people
present.
At the table, Carlos barely said a word. Most of the time he just sat there
Listening to the others talk about business, which was normal for him. He was
known to Listen more than talk. The one thing seemed weird was that he kept
asking the waiter to fill Elmer's glass
It baffled everyone except Elmer himself. He got it the moment Frankie came with
the alcohol-Carlos was getting his revenge for the time Elmer tried to stick
Debbie with a multi-million-dollar bill for alcohol.
Revenge is a dish best served cold-or in this case, chilled to perfection. And
Carlos could be very cold indeed.
Debbie didn’t realize it until Carlos brought up the contracts between
Hilton Group and Elmer's company.
Directly and indirectly, Carlos was saying that Elmer had made a lot of money
doing business with Hilton Group. So Elmer, sweating bullets, finally came out
with, “Dinner’s on me. Everybody, enjoy.”
“Thank you, Elmer.” Again, Carlos spoke before Debbie did.
At this point, a steamed fish dish was brought to the guests. The waiter intended
to turn the table so that the dish was in front of
Carlos with the fish's head pointing at him. But when the dish was about to stop
in front of him, Carlos turned the table further and made it stop when the fish's
head was pointing at Debbie. The waiter was taken aback. He hadn't expected
Carlos to do that, but under the circumstances, he had to think fast, so he looked
at Debbie, and recited what he was supposed to say to Carlos-“If a fish’s head
points at you, your every desire shall come true.”
The situation got even weirder. People shifted uncomfortably in their seats.
Debbie smiled awkwardly and tried to lighten the mood.
“Why!

Calros, are you bribing me to toast you?” she asked.
Carlos gave a faint smile.
“You work for me. Do I need to bribe you?” he said.
Debbie was even more embarrassed. “God, sometimes he can be so hateful.”
She picked up her glass and replied, “Of course not. Carlos this glass is a toast
to you. Thank you for helping me at work.”
She was trying to make her relationship with Carlos sound more official and less
personal.
