Torn Between Love and Hate novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209 Trouble Arises 

After finishing her phone call with Joseph, Deborah left Moxley Manor.

Joseph was busy, she knew that.

So she didn’t let him come to pick her up; instead, she called him and told him the location of a restaurant, then drove

there herself.

Joseph was feeling a bit uneasy, but Deborah couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s broad daylight now, what are you worried about? Alright, you just drive to the restaurant, and I’ll drive there too.”

Joseph reluctantly agreed, “Alright, just be careful on your way. I’m leaving now. Oh, and my dad mentioned that he’d like to invite you to Black Manor for dinner on the fifteenth day of New Year.”

On this special Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Gerald invited Deborah over for dinner.

It went without saying that the Black family had accepted Deborah.

Although whether the Black family accepted Deborah or not, it didn’t affect Joseph and Deborah being together.

Regardless of everything, Deborah was genuinely happy from the bottom of her heart to receive the approval of Elder Joseph.

“Sure thing,” Deborah replied, her lips curling into a smile as she got into the car.

Chandler was about to go to prison, and the Black family had now accepted her.

Additionally, Alyssa’s attitude toward Joseph these past few days seems to have become less resistant and repulsive

than before.

Deborah had met with Joseph a few times, and although Alyssa pretended not to know, Deborah was well aware that she most likely knew about it.

Deborah had a feeling that everything was moving in a positive direction.

Soon, there will be no one and nothing to stand in the way of her being with Joseph.

After all these years, it seems that the bad times are finally coming to an end.

After hanging up the phone, she got into the car with a cheerful expression and headed towards the restaurant she

had reserved.

Alyssa had a performance today, and Adrian accompanied her.

It was the tenth day of New Year, and Adrian’s film crew had started working. As a rising star, Alyssa had many engagements lined up in her schedule.

Evelyn has been getting along, well with Alyssa lately and, curious about Alyssa’s performance, she decided to join her.

Deborah, on the other hand, had some free time and was looking forward to enjoying a few relaxing days.

She was thinking that after the fifteenth day of New Year, she would go to Oceanview City and return to work at

Jingron Design.

Afterward, Joseph planned to gradually move Jingron Design to Richmond, so they would stay in Richmond in the future.

Deborah worked here, making it convenient for Joseph to manage Jingron while also overseeing the Black Group in

Richmond.

As Deborah drove, she thought about the future, enjoying the beautiful sunshine outside.

As the ice and snow began to melt, her heart warmed along with it.

Moxley Manor was situated in a peaceful area, with few people and vehicles passing by. The open roads also made for a pleasant driving experience.

Deborah was lost in thought when suddenly she felt something flash in the rearview mirror, as if a car was approaching from behind.

She instinctively took a closer look in the rearview mirror, but there was nothing behind her.

Only the bare trees lined the sides of the road, with snow still clinging to their branches.

She must be hallucinating. She averted her gaze and continued to look ahead, focusing on driving.

Not far from the starting point, the car suddenly jolted.

The front wheel seemed to have hit something, causing a problem with the tire, and the car came to a stop.

Deborah had no choice but to get out of the car and go ahead to see what was going on.

As she walked to the front of the car, she suddenly felt that something was off.

The road was smooth, without any obstacles, and there shouldn’t be anything lying across it that could damage the
