Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Chapter: 76

‘Hmph! Calling backup? No big deal. I don’t give a damn, ‘ Debbie thought to herself.

“Settle the account!” Debbie demanded and glared at the cashier with an intense look on her face. However, the cashier was still hesitant. The name Victor rang a bell. She had heard it before.

Was he the vice-general manager of the mall? She wasn’t sure about it.

But if he was who she thought he was, how could she afford to offend him?

When the cashier hesitated to take her card, Debbie lost her patience and snapped, “Didn’t you hear me? I said, take my card and give me the receipt!” The truth was, she felt bad that she had to direct her anger at the cashier as she knew why the woman behind the counter was unwilling to do her job; she must have known whom Gail had called.

“Miss, I’m sorry, but could you please wait a minute? That lLady.. she seemed to have called the vice- general manager of our mall,” the cashier explained while looking back and forth between Debbie and Gail.

She had no idea what was happening. All she knew was that she wanted to offend neither of the customers.

‘Huh? The vice-general manager of Shining International Plaza? What’s the big deal? My husband is the owner,” she retorted in private.

She walked towards Gail with an irritated expression and said in a sarcastic tone, “How many times have you been to the dean’s office? Did you think I was stupid? I know you were the one who snitched on me. If

I could, I would tear that mask off your face, but I’m simply too busy to be bothered right now. We both know that does not mean I’m afraid of you. Fortunately for you, I had been in no mood to have open disputes with you regarding the matter, even though you kept stabbing me in the back. You won the last time. But if you think carrying on with that attitude is going to keep giving me losses, then you better get ready.

I’m warning you, Gail. If you dare provoke me one more time, I’ll make sure you’re on the losing end.”

Gail turned pale upon hearing Debbie’s threats. She knew that the feisty girl before her was not afraid of her at all — if she had to be taken down, she would be. She shuddered at the thought that she was arguing with someone who was not afraid of anyone.

“What kind of nonsense are you spewing now? I didn’t tell the dean anything!” Gail denied, hoping to escape Debbie’s wrath. That was her strategy; she would refuse any accusations against her, knowing full well that Debbie had no concrete proof that she was the one who had told on her.

However, the nervous Look on her face had already given her away. Her voice had begun to tremble whenever she would try to explain herself

Debbie, who was already expecting Gail’s reaction, flashed a mocking smile and silently cursed the bitch.

“For the sake of your parents, I will not be beating you up today. Instead, for the last time, I’m going to tell you that this collar pin is mine, so you better choose another one. Otherwise, you know you’ll be walking out of here Limp,” Debbie warned her. She had her arms crossed before her chest, projecting a demeanor and gesture of someone who was fearless.

Kristina and Kasie giggled behind Debbie because they knew that their friend was just bluffing. Debbie could be a little tetchy but she had a tender heart.

Debbie would not really beat Gail up because the girl going against her was her aunt’s daughter — they were in fact cousins by blood, so she was actually quite tolerant of her cousin; even after what Gail had done to Debbie, the latter had still begged Carlos not to get her cousin expelled.

However, Gail did not share the same sentiment as her relative. She got pissed off and yelled, “Who do you think you are? Don’t think that I don’t know your dirty Little secret. The BMW you’re riding? It must be from your sugar daddy, huh? The guy must be old. I don’t think the collar pin will suit him.“ She made her voice louder than ever on purpose so that everyone could hear what she was on about.

Rumor had it that Debbie had a sugar daddy, and almost all the students in the university believed it to be true.

Gail believed that only a successful businessman like her boyfriend deserved that pin they were arguing to purchase, and she would, by no means, give it up to Debbie.

The people surrounding them all turned to look at Debbie with judgmental and condemning eyes.

When Debbie noticed that everyone around her had chosen to trust her spoiled cousin’s statement, she heavily banged her palm on the counter making a thump loud enough to silence the people chattering and murmuring about her

AlL of a sudden, Kasie rushed towards the rumor-mongering girl. She was fuming when she said through gritted teeth, “Do you think I don’t know what you’ve done to Debbie behind her back? How dare you make up stories to frame her? Are you appealing to death? Apologize to Debbie, now!”

The girl before the enraged friend knew what Kasie was talking about.
