Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Chapter: 96

Far from feeling like she had married a husband, in truth, she felt like she had
found herself a father.

As stubborn and proud as she was, Debbie had never flattered anyone to gain
favor, but lately she had been trying very hard to please her husband. As if that
weren't bad enough, he wasn't making it any easier for her. Instead of having to
see him only in the mornings and the evenings at the villa, she would now have
to put up with him in her school.

Debbie just couldn't catch a break with this man. It had to end today.

She would much rather lay her cards on the table and get it over with.

Carlos walked around the desk to the sofa across her and sat down.

“Divorce is not an option.” He made himself very clear.

“Why? I told you I don’t want your money. I don’t want anything from you. Why
are you still refusing to sign the papers? What else do you want?” “What's wrong
with this guy?’ By then, she was so angry she wanted to rush over, choke him,
kick him in the head, and throw him in

Arctic Ocean.

Giving him no time to respond, she went on, “I know I've spent a lot of your
money in the past three years. Don’t worry. I'LL pay every penny back as soon as
1 find a job.”

Carlos sensed anger in her tone. When she finally finished speaking, he said, “I
didn’t do right by you in the past three years. I neglected you. I won't make the
same mistake again in the future.”

“Eh? Did he just apologize to me?’ Debbie didn't see that coming.

“There is no need for an apology. Anyway, you don’t Love me and I don't love you
either. A loveless marriage between two people is meaningless.

Furthermore, according to the law, married couples who stay apart for two years
or more are automatically considered divorced. So if you still refuse to sign the
divorce papers, I will have to sue you.”

Her last few sentences forced him to let out a chuckle. After all, this young lady
was too naive.

*Sue me? No problem. I can help her find the best lawyer in the city.

But automatically divorced?’ Carlos felt obliged to correct her.

“Listen. First of all, to be automatically divorced, the couple must be separated
for two entire consecutive years. One year, nine months and ten days ago, I went
back to the villa and slept next to you, but you were too sound asleep to know it.”
Being the gentleman that he was, Carlos had kept the Lights off so she wouldn't
wake up and it was too dark to see anything anyway. Nothing had happened
between the two of them that night. Besides, he had only stayed for two hours
and then left for work again.

Debbie's eyes nearly popped out at his reply. “Hell no! I didn’t even know a man
was sleeping next to me?’

Carlos took out a cigarette, but since Debbie was present, he didn't light it.
Playing with the cigarette in his fingers, he continued,

Debbie was so puzzled her face fell
faster than a corpse in cement boots.

In that instant, her mouth hung with
lips slightly parted and her eyes were
as wide as they could stretch. She
started wondering if she should hire
a lawyer to see if Carlos was trying to
fool her. The content is on

Thirdly.” He suddenly stood up and
moved towards her. Leaning over her
with his hands on the arms of the
chair, he pressed his face close to
hers. Debbie was forced to lean back.

“Wh-What is he doing? Why is he so close? Is he trying to seduce me?’
Debbie thought nervously.
