Burning Passion: Love Never Die

But Blanche’s tone didn’t soften much.
“You know your health condition. Why don’t you save some energy? No one
asked her to protect anybody. As if we couldn’t even afford a bodyguard! She just
wanted to show off and to Let everyone know how capable she was.”
With his eyes closed, Griffin leaned back on the sofa to steady his breathing.
After a long while, he opened his eyes and looked at his daughter, who was still
sulking.
“Do you remember the time when you were kidnapped? Think about how Debbie
saved you.”
Portia quieted down, her hands clenched into fists.
“I didn't ask her to save me. She made that decision on her own. Just Like what
my mom said, she just wanted to show off.”
That year, Debbie and Hayden were only friends. They hadn't started dating yet.
In an attempt to save Portia, she was beaten up so badly by a bunch of
kidnappers that her Life hung by a thread. But those men were still not leaving
her alone. When they were about to rape her, the police came and saved her,
who was dying.
Afterwards, Hayden scolded Portia for hanging out with punks.
It was in the hospital that Hayden first told Debbie that he Liked her.
Back then, he was still a nobody in the Gomez family. He hadn't achieved
anything yet, and every month, he depended on pocket money from his parents.
The only thing he bought for Debbie that day was a rose, which Debbie gladly
accepted, and that was how their relationship had started.
Hearing his daughter's response, Griffin almost had a heart attack. He tried to
contain his emotions.
“Let go this time. If a wrong is avenged with another wrong, there would be no
end to it,” he persuaded while watching Blanche dab Portia’s face with ice.
If the matter got out of hand, he was afraid that Carlos would step in himself. Not
the kind of trouble the old man would wish anyone in his family to get involved in.
But given that Emmett had worked for Carlos for many years, that possibility
wasn't far-fetched. It was not likely that Carlos would turn a blind eye to Emmett’s
trouble. If
Portia angered Carlos because of a trifle between her and Debbie, nobody would
be able to save her.
As Portia was busy massaging her stinging face, she didn’t respond.
However, silently, she had already made a decision in her heart.
“It's impossible for me to let go of this. That bitch is getting more and more
arrogant. This has to come to an end, no matter what it takes!”
Back in Carlos’ villa, he watched Debbie fall asleep. Then he got out of bed and
called Emmett.
“What exactly happened this evening?”
Emmett was just dozing off when the incoming call from Carlos shook him wide
awake. For the hundredth time, he thanked fate for his not having a girlfriend.
Otherwise, his relationship would be strained by such calls from Carlos in the
dead of the night.
Emmett shook his head to expel the thought from his mind and gave
