Chapter 124
“I thought you wouldn’t feel it,” Debra chuckled bitterly. “Ever thought about how much worse words could hurt me?”
After a moment of silence, Juan said, “I’ll handle it.”
“No need.” Debra turned to leave.
“Why didn’t you tell me about the rumors at school?” Juan asked.
Debra paused and sounded amused. Tell you?”
Juan felt uneasy with her tone. “If you had told me, I would have…”
“If I told you it was Shelia spreading the rumors, would you believe me?” Debra interrupted.
Juan was taken aback. “I asked her. It wasn’t her.”
“So, there’s nothing to discuss,” Debra scoffed.
Simply put, Juan trusted Shelia.
As Debra turned to leave, Juan grabbed her arm and asked sullenly,” Are you implying I’m biased toward Shelia?”
“You know the answer,” Debra retorted.
“How do you know I haven’t investigated this? Why are you so sure it was Shelia?” Juan pressed, showing no intention of letting her go.
“Let go!” Debra shook off his arm.
The disgust in her eyes stung his heart.
“Admit it, Juan. You just believe Shelia more. There’s nothing left between us pra said icily.
She walked out of the house, leaving Juan standing there in a daze.
Chapter 124
#25 BONUS
The Frazier family was in chaos. Tension ran high as everyone looked at Ralph.
“Sir, do you think Ms. Frazier really wants a divorce from Juan?”
“They can’t get divorced. Without Juan, what will happen to our projs?
“Yes, we must contact Ms. Frazier immediately.”
Ralph didn’t know what to do. Debra wasn’t answering his calls, and Juan was beyond his reach.
No one knew what new conflict the young couple was brewing.
Rosalie smirked nearby, “I don’t think they’ll get divorced. Everyone in Seamar City knows how much Debra adores Juan. Even if he’s keeping. a college girl as his mistress, she’ll pretend she doesn’t know and continue to be Mrs. Nichols.”
Just then, the gates opened.
Debra heard Rosalie’s mocking voice from the doorway.
In Rosalie’s mind, she was Juan’s lapdog.
