Burning Passion: Love Never Die

“Carlos, what a surprise! You're not busy now?"
“No. Mom, when did you see Debbie take birth control pills?” Carlos asked
outright.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line. Tabitha figured that it
must be Megan who told Carlos.
Carlos waited on the phone patiently. After a while, Tabitha finally opened her
mouth.
“I think it's good she took a contraceptive, since your grandma and dad don't like
her. It'll be a problem divorcing her if she gets pregnant with your child...”
“Mom!” Carlos’ powerful voice interrupted Tabitha's mumbling.
“Whether they like Debbie or not has nothing to do with me. Just answer my
question. When did you see Debbie taking birth control pills?”
“Carlos!” Tabitha raised her voice. His cold voice stung her heart.
“You've never talked to me like this before! You've become distant from me
because of Debbie. I'm heartbroken by your coldness.”
Carlos remained silent. Suspicion rose in his heart. It wasn't a difficult question to
answer if she had indeed seen it with her own eyes, but she kept jumping over
this issue. It dawned on him that things were not as simple as he had thought it
to be.
“Sorry, Mom. I have work. I'll call you later. Bye!”
“Carlos! Carlos...” Tabitha wanted to talk to her son for a while longer, but he had
ended the call without waiting for her reply.
She sat staring blankly at her phone for a while before coming back to her
senses. She stood up and walked to James’ study
James was talking to someone on the phone with a smile on his face when she
pushed open the door and walked in. At the sight of her, he instantly pulled a long
face and ended the call in haste. The smile had vanished from his face.
In a cold voice, he asked, “Anything?” He returned to his seat and randomly
grabbed a file which was on his desk
The expression on his face had changed so abruptly that it was impossible for
Tabitha to not have noticed it. Her face went pale.
“Carlos knows about Debbie taking contraceptives,” she said, trying to sound
calm.
James put aside the file and asked with a frown, “So soon?”
She merely nodded without saying anything. The truth was that she was the one
who had blurted it out to Megan. But she couldn't dare tell
James that, afraid of his ill-temper.

There was a moment of silence in the
study. James lit a cigar, took a drag
and slowly blew out a stream of
smoke. Tabitha wanted to stop him
from smoking for the sake of his
health. Yet, the words were stuck to
her throat. She dared not interfere
