Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Gail was seething in anger, while Gregory stayed calm. Seeing the exchange
between them, Debbie burst into Laughter. She walked closer to
Gregory and whispered in his ear, “Gregory, thank you for the compliment.
But this girl is my cousin. Could you let her go, please?” Gregory was suddenly
lost in a trance as he breathed in her scent and gazed at her delicate face. He
couldn’t say anything in return.
Hearing no response from him, Debbie misinterpreted his expression and
thought that he was angry with her too. Embarrassed, she stepped back and
stood at a distance from him.
Her gesture snapped Gregory back to his senses. Recalling what Debbie had
asked, he said in a haste, “Rest assured, Debbie. I'm not petty enough to try and
get even with a girl. 'm going back now.”
He quickly turned around and ran into the courtyard of one of the villager's
house.
Soon after Gregory Left, Jared showed up and slowly walked towards her
With obvious worry in his eyes, he shouted, “Debbie, where have you been? I've
been looking all over for you since noon. Why are you just standing here? Aren't
you cold? There's a stove inside the house. Come and warm yourself up.”
Debbie sniffled lightly. She felt touched by what all her friends did for her.
Gregory had defended her in front of Gail and now Jared was worried about her
health. But somewhere in her heart, she felt like something was lacking. She
wondered what it was.
But she soon realized what she had been missing.
When Debbie was close enough to him, Jared whispered, “Hey, I got some
interesting news for you. Carlos had apparently arranged for someone to tell the
village head to give you special care. Did you know about this? Okay, no need to
answer that. I just saw a huge question mark pop up on your face. You had no
idea, did you? Your husband is really warm and caring.” Jared was so envious of
Debbie at that moment. She had received some electric appliances to keep warm
at night, but he had nothing. He only had a man to sleep together with in the
same bed to keep warm, yet, the man wouldn't allow Jared to hug him.
Debbie blinked her eyes, unable to process the information.
“Who told you this?” She had no idea at all. She couldn't believe that Carlos’
influence could reach such a remote village.
“I heard it from the village head!” Jared replied. He had gone to the village head's
house in an attempt to get an electric warming fan or at least, an electric blanket.
Much to his disappointment, he hadn’t gotten anything. Perhaps, the only thing to
help him keep warm now would be wine, which thankfully, their hosts had
supplied in plenty. So he joined the village head for a drink with the
accompaniment of some hearty talks. But the elder was no heavy drinker. Only a
few glasses down and he dropped the guard, turning into a blabbermouth.
In between his juicy tales, he let slip to Jared that someone had requested the
villagers to give special care to Debbie. Although he didn’t know who that person
was, he remembered someone mentioned about a name “Carlos”.
From the village head's words, Jared could put two and two together
The surname Hilton was a rare name, and even across the city, there was only
one “Carlos” whose influence could reach a remote village Like the
Southon Village.
