Burning Passion: Love Never Die

Looking Blanche in the eye, Portia said with determination, “I’m going to be his woman.” That was the only way she could step on Debbie and teach her a hard lesson that she would never forget.

“NO! Don’t you know Carlos is married? You’re not going to be anyone’s mistress,” Blanche snapped. There was no way that would end well. Men made endless promises to their mistresses about how they’d divorce their wives and marry them. They rarely did, and if the mistresses got pregnant, well, that was all over.

Portia was not willing to be an ordinary man’s mistress. However,

Carlos was not an ordinary man. Being his mistress was much better than being an ordinary man’s wife. Portia said in a calm voice, “Mom, I don’t think Carlos loves his wife. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have kept her a secret from the public. He has gone to parties with Olga a couple times. Besides, he walked out of the hotel with a college girl last time, and I’m sure that wasn’t Olga. See? He has so many women. Men are all unfaithful. And Carlos is no exception. Have you ever heard of the daughters of the prominent families in Alorith getting married? No! Of course, Carlos’ wife is not from a powerful family. Do you think I can’t drive Mrs. Hilton out of the Hilton family and replace her?”

“Um… Blanche hesitated. She had to admit that Portia had a point, but she was afraid that people might gossip behind her back. After all, it would be disgraceful if Portia was a mistress.

Portia knew what was on her mother’s mind.

“Mom, don’t worry. I don’t think people would gossip about me. Carlos is so rich and powerful, nobody will trash talk him or his woman. After I become his woman, our family will be more respected.”
