Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Looking Blanche in the eye, Portia said with determination, “I'm going to be his
woman.” That was the only way she could step on Debbie and teach her a hard
lesson that she would never forget.
“NO! Don’t you know Carlos is married? You're not going to be anyone’s
mistress,” Blanche snapped. There was no way that would end well. Men made
endless promises to their mistresses about how they'd divorce their wives and
marry them. They rarely did, and if the mistresses got pregnant, well, that was all
over.
Portia was not willing to be an ordinary man’s mistress. However,
Carlos was not an ordinary man. Being his mistress was much better than being
an ordinary man's wife. Portia said in a calm voice, “Mom, I don’t think Carlos
loves his wife. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept her a secret from the public. He
has gone to parties with Olga a couple times. Besides, he walked out of the hotel
with a college girl last time, and I'm sure that wasn’t Olga. See? He has so many
women. Men are all unfaithful. And Carlos is no exception. Have you ever heard
of the daughters of the prominent families in Alorith getting married? No! Of
course, Carlos’ wife is not from a powerful family. Do you think I can't drive Mrs.
Hilton out of the Hilton family and replace her?”
“Um... Blanche hesitated. She had to admit that Portia had a point, but she was
afraid that people might gossip behind her back. After all, it would be disgraceful
if Portia was a mistress.
Portia knew what was on her mother’s mind.
“Mom, don’t worry. I don't think people would gossip about me. Carlos is so rich
and powerful, nobody will trash talk him or his woman. After I become his
woman, our family will be more respected.”
“After I become Mrs. Hilton, I'll ask him to fire Emmett!” she swore to herself.
Blanche had been thinking of marrying her daughter to Carlos instead of
Lewis. Despite being the general manager of Hilton Group's New York branch,
Lewis wielded Little power in the company. But the truth was,
Carlos had turned this offer down without hesitation. Left with no other option,
she then decided to marry Portia to Lewis. After all,
Lewis was Carlos’ cousin. The Gomez family could still benefit from an
association with Carlos.
Portia's explanations made Blanche feel better about her plan. She was still wary,
but Portia seemed logical about this.
“But it's not easy to get close to Carlos,” she said to her daughter.
“I know. From now on I'll work harder to stand out. You and Dad can try your best
to get me the invitations of the parties, dinners, and commercial activities Carlos
will attend,” said Portia.
She had been trying to be a better woman all the time. It used to be just for show,
but now it was for Carlos.
She understood that only an exceptional woman deserved to stand by him.
