Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Chapter: 172

“I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls. I pray you are flying high when your engine stalls.”

Debbie had sung this song to Carlos before, a cover of Jaron NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Lowenstein. He hadn’t known Debbie was in the bar until he heard the song. Then he caught sight of the love declaration on the screen.

Instantly his face darkened and he stiffened, looking like a Living ice sculpture.

When the song was finished, the customers started screaming and whistling in excitement.

At that moment, someone came over to Carlos and reminded him he was there to sign a contract, so he walked away from the window. And that was when it all hit the fan.

After Debbie had stepped down from the stage, a man poured a glass of liquor. He held the liquor in one hand and walked towards her with a wad of notes in his other hand.

“Come on, chica, down this glass of liquor and these notes are all yours.”

Debbie glanced at the notes. There was less than two thousand there.

For a glass of liquor. She thought it wasn’t worth it, so she turned him down.

She could make as much in one hour just by singing, and singing didn’t harm her body, yet drinking did. Besides, alcohol is murder on the vocal chords. She wanted to be able to sing well, so she said no.

The contempt in her eyes made the man feel like doggy doo. Humiliated and irritated, he took out a thicker wad of notes and tossed it on the table.

“Drink!” he demanded.

Now, there was a respectable amount. She grabbed the cash and the glass. Without a word or any hesitation, she put the glass to her lips and downed it.

The man was pleased and with a sinister sneer, he poured a second glass. Everyone started cheering when Debbie emptied the second glass.

Kristina was singing when she saw what was happening to Debbie. She was worried about her. Then she remembered Jared was there too, but when she turned her head, she couldn’t see any trace of him. He’d been making time with a girl, though, so it was possible they Left together.

So it was up to her to keep a bad situation from getting worse.

After Debbie had downed three glasses of liquor, she’d earned more than

10, @0@ dollars.

Jared finally revealed himself. He was tipsy, and staggered out of the bathroom, slumping back into his seat. Since there was a throng surrounding Debbie at that moment, Jared couldn’t see her, so he turned his attention to the girl he had met earlier.

By the time Kristina found him, Debbie had already drunk seven glasses of liquor. She let him know, and the news sobered him.

Jared rushed to Debbie, snatched the glass from her hand, and snarled,

“What the hell do you think you’re doing? How much have you had?”

Noticing the thick wad of notes, Jared shivered. ‘If Carlos finds out about this, I’m screwed.‘

Debbie waved her hand and said, “Eh, relax. Look at the money I’ve made. Thousands of dollars a glass. And I‘m not drunk yet.”
