From Heartbreak to Happily Ever After novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27 

In her last life, Juan could have helped her, but he hadn’t, merely watching from the sidelines. 

Thinking about it, Debra pulled her hand away from Juan’s. 

Juan wrinkled his brows. 

Fortunately, no one noticed her movement. 

After the banquet, Juan and Debra left, hand in hand. Once outside, Debra withdrew her hand at the right 

moment. 

Juan felt uneasy. 

After a while, Debra spoke up. “Why did you come?” 

“Knowing they’d make things difficult for you, why did you still come alone?” 

Debra paused. “I asked you.” 

‘It’s Shelia’s birthday today. I had to make a quick visit, Juan said. 

“Shelia’s birthday?” Debra was surprised. “Then why did you come?” 

Juan always seemed to prioritize Shelia. 

Juan frowned. “This banquet concerns the relationship between the Frazier and Nichols families. I have to come.” 

“A grandiose excuse,” Debra muttered. 

Juan didn’t catch that. “What were you saying?” 

Debra didn’t reply. In her last life, Juan knew it was the Frazier family’s banquet but still didn’t accompany her, leaving he 

to deal with the mean Rosalie and the elders. He couldn’t even be bothered to give her an excuse for not coming. 

“I said it’s a big day for Shelia. Is it appropriate for you not to keep her company?” 

“You don’t need to remind me.” 

Juan’s tone softened at the mention of Shelja. “Shelia is an orphan. She’s obedient and sensible. As soon as she heard it was the Frazier family’s banquet, she told me to handle things first through a call, and I promised to accompany her after the banquet.” 

As soon as he finished speaking, Juan realized he had misspoken. 

Debra felt a pang in her heart and chuckled bitterly. 

Shelia was an orphan. What about her? 

In Juan’s mind, she couldn’t hold a candle to Shelia. 

“Suit yourself. I’m going home.”
