Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Chapter: 69
Regardless, she opened the thermal meal box anyway, and said, “As soon as
you try everything, I will leave right away.”
But Carlos wasn't completely listening any more. The moment she opened the
box, a burnt smell filled the room — and hence, Carlos caught a whiff of it.
Wincing, Carlos thought, “What was that? Did she even check if it was edible?”
Debbie caught the man’s expression. “A frown? Why is he frowning? He has not
even tasted it yet. Was it because it does not look good?’
She clasped her hands together and began to explain, “It may Look awful but it
tastes good.” “She's right, “ Carlos thought. “It does look awful.’ “Julie had tasted it
and she said the same. It's really good.
You should have a try,” Debbie persisted. For tonight's mission, she did not even
eat the dishes herself so there would be plenty for him.
Disregarding the mildly horrified look on his face, Debbie took the chopsticks out
from the meal box and handed them to him.
Initially, he was hesitant to accept them, but the expectant Look on her face
made him decide not to disappoint her.
Once he did, Debbie started to introduce the dishes excitedly.
“This is
Dongpo tofu. Well, this is um... Why is it black? Um, it's supposed to be red
braised pork.” She looked at the burnt dish and giggled at
Carlos, embarrassed.
“This one,” she went on, pointing at another dish, “is supposed to be stewed pork
ball in brown sauce. How come it's black too?” Her voice trailed off as she
examined her cooking. The food did not seem to have looked that way earlier.
Not to her anyway.
Due to Carlos’ taste in food, his extensive experience with different cuisine
prepared by brilliant chefs across the world... Debbie's dishes did not appeal to
him at all. They looked so hideous that he did not have to taste them to know that
the taste would not be good.
“Oh, oh, I know this one. These are boiled shrimps. They didn’t become black,”
she exclaimed excitedly. “Of course, these wouldn't be black.
ALL you needed to do was throw them in a pot and boil them, “ Carlos thought to
himself.
His hand holding the chopsticks felt like it had been tied to a stone; it was too
heavy to lift. But Debbie prattled on.
“Carlos, this is the first time I have cooked. I-I came here to apologize. Last
night...”
She lowered her head. The look in the man’s eyes dimmed. Her next words
somehow made him feel relieved like a thorn had been removed from his heart.

“You haven't taken a bite yet,” she suddenly said. Uh-oh. He had thought that she
had forgotten about the dishes. Quite frankly, he had nearly forgotten about them
himself.
Among all the dishes, the shrimps were the only one that seemed Like they
would not give him a stomachache. So he decided to pick up a shrimp.

But before his chopsticks could lift
one from the meal box, she put her
hand on the chopsticks and said,
