Burning Passion: Love Never Die
Chapter 502

His icy tone brought everyone to a halt. Nobody dared to take one more step.

Valerie, who had just gotten up, slumped back into the couch at Carlos’ command. Everyone could seethat the dad and grandma didn’t Like

Debbie. Watching Carlos, they all wondered what he was going to say.

It was Carlos who provided everything for the entire Hilton family, so whenever he spoke, both his dadand his grandmother Listened. At least those two, James and Valerie, were less authoritative in front ofhim.

Sensing Carlos was about to say something, Megan suggested, “Uncle

Carlos, grandma hasn’t eaten dinner yet. But she wanted to have dinner with us. Why don’t we eatfirst? Do it for grandma?”

Carlos ignored her. He pulled Debbie into his arms and announced, “I only need three minutes.

And I’m going to say this only once. If any of you has a problem with

Debbie, you have a problem with me! She is my wife, and I love her. If you can’t treat her nicely, thenwe’re not staying.”

There was dead silence in the living room. Valerie sighed. After a while, James roared, “Shut up, youungrateful son of a bitch! Did I say you could marry her? She’s not welcome here!”

Carlos was going to talk back, but Debbie pulled at the corner of his shirt and shook her head when heLooked back at her.

He knew she was worried about him. After giving Debbie a comforting look, Carlos told James,“Grandpa blessed our marriage. Although he’s sick and in hospital, he’s still the head of the family. Hespeaks for all of us. Grandpa’s blessing means that she’s part of this family.

Hilton men are gentlemen. You should treat women with more respect.”

James pointed at him furiously. His mouth opened and closed, but words failed him.

They knew Carlos never backed down, so Valerie compromised.

“James, calm down. If your dad made the match, it isn’t the kids’ fault. Carlos did the right thing,defending his wife. Okay, enough. Time to eat.”

Debbie blinked in disbelief. ‘Has Carlos’ grandma actually accepted me?

My husband is awesome!‘

Tabitha, who had been quiet the whole time, echoed, “Mom’s right. It

New Year’s Eve. James, please stop. Let’s have dinner first.”

She barely ever spoke in James’ presence. However, as Debbie’s mother-in-law, she thought it wrongto remain silent any longer.

Since Tabitha had spoken up, Wade Hilton, James’ elder brother, spoke up too. He looked at his threesons and reprimanded, “Are you blind?

Escort your uncle James to the dining room!”
