Burning Passion: Love Never Die

But Carlos stopped her.
“Don’t avoid him. He did nothing wrong.”
Seeing that Debbie wanted to leave, Curtis smiled with resignation.
“Debbie, it's just a dinner. Come on.”
Debbie took a deep breath, but her mind was made up.
“I'm not hungry anymore,” she said stubbornly to her husband, refusing to look at
or talk to Curtis.
Carlos turned around and explained to her, “This is Colleen’s restaurant. And it's
expensive, to boot. Let's just eat and let Curtis pay the bill? We can rip him off.
It'll be fun.”
“Since when do you care about money?” Debbie retorted curtly. The VIP card for
the fifth floor of Alioth Building cost a million each. Carlos had given Debbie and
each of her closest friends a card like that without blinking. Of course, right now,
he wasn’t complaining about the cost. He was trying to pull a prank.
With a smile, he coaxed, “Hey, I get it. But you're hungry, right?
Since we're already here, let's get something to eat.”
Debbie knew Carlos wouldn't let her leave, so she reluctantly followed the two
men inside. Nothing would be gained by continuing to resist, so she decided
maybe she was hungry, after all
Curtis led them into a booth. Before they walked in, a waiter had already carried
a pot of soup stock inside the booth, and put it on the stove to heat it. A faint
delicious smell filled the air when the three stepped inside.
They took their seats. Debbie sat next to Carlos, and Curtis was on his other
side.
Soon, the waiter brought in several ingredients so they could finish making the
hot pot. There was thinly sliced Lamb and goat, beef, egg noodles, bok choy,
crown daisy and winter melon, spinach, lettuce, carrots, taro, daikon, and
watercress. Not to mention various condiments like soy sauce, garlic, white
pepper and XO sauce. The ingredients here were much more exquisite than
those she had eaten at other hot pot restaurants she'd tried. This place looked
like it catered to an upscale clientele. Which was appropriate since she was here
with Carlos.
Assuming Curtis and Carlos were going to eat with her, she didn't stop the
waiters from bringing in dish after dish. There was enough for a sumptuous feast.
When the stock started boiling, Curtis picked up some ingredients and threw
them in. Debbie didn't see everything he used, but there was definitely some
goat and daikon. When the food was ready, Carlos fished it out of the pot with his
chopsticks, putting it on Debbie's plate
She ate without complaint and Life was good. At least for now.
When there was a Lull, she looked around at the two men she ate with and
noticed they hadn't touched their chopsticks.
“Why aren't you two eating?” she asked Carlos.
