"Sir, Mrs. Nichols is here," whispered Joe to Juan.

Juan wrinkled his brow, having noticed Debra the moment she walked in. Marion was trailing behind, a sight that annoyed him.

Debra and Erica walked hand in hand, chatting and laughing. From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Shelia and the others.

Her face bore a playful smile.

Jordan had waited inside for a long time. His eyes lit up the moment Debra approached. He abandoned his wine and strode swiftly towards her.

"What took you so long?" His tone held some impatience but more joy.

Debra said, "Allow me introduce my friend, Erica."

Jordan froze, while Erica teased, "Well well, the kid from the Potter family has grown up."

She moved as if to pinch Jordan's ear, but he quickly blocked her hand. "I'm not a kid anymore."

Debra hadn't expected they would know each other.

Erica explained, "When we were little, the Potter and Houston families had business dealings. I was the oldest, and Randy was my sidekick. Jordan was t

    Shelia just wanted to leave as soon as possible. Carrie grabbed her hand and said teasingly, "What's the rush? Isn't that your boyfriend? He's flirting with another woman right in front of you. As your friends, we'll stand up for you.""Carrie's right. Let's go over there and demand an explanation."Wendy and Carrie exchanged glances, eager to witness the drama between the wife and the mistress.Shelia shook her head desperately.Not far away, the air went oppressive with Juan's approaching. Debra, however, seemed oblivious. "Oh, isn't that Shelia? Why aren't you with Miss Miles? She doesn't look well."Juan's face darkened.He couldn't believe she wanted him to care about Shelia on such an occasion.Erica was full of hostility, and Jordan scoffed, "Just now, Mr. Nichols came in holding another woman's hand. I thought the Nichols family had a new hostess. Mrs. Nichols, why are you here all alone?"His casual words were full of sarcasm.Debra smiled, having no intention of givi

    Jordan was hot-tempered. When he heard this, he exploded, "What the hell did you say?"His fierce expression daunted Carrie, who quickly tried to reason with him, "Mr. Jordan Potter, this is for your good. Do you know this woman tried to seduce Shelia's boyfriend? She even went to school to pursue him. Why are you still speaking up for her?"Erica chuckled, "Shelia's boyfriend? Where did she get a boyfriend?"Carrie scoffed, "You're no better, just another escort like this woman. You're not qualified to question me!""Damn!" Erica was infuriated.But before she could take any action, Randy cut in sharply, "Who are you calling an escort?"His loud voice caught the attention of Carrie's parents.When they realized it was Randy speaking and standing beside their daughter, they informed Wendy's parents and hurried over."What's going on?" Carrie's father assumed an elder's posture, clearly protective of his daughter."Dad! They're bullying me!" Carrie complained.Her father sized

    Carrie was daunted, hiding behind her father.It was the first time he had seen his daughter so aggrieved. He immediately spoke up, "Mr. Jordan Potter! Carrie is just a kid. Can't you just accommodate yourself to her a little? How could you..."Jordan cut him off, sneering, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"Everyone around wore expressions of anticipation.They all knew Jordan's character.Since he was born, only Andrew could manage him. No one else had dared to lecture him.Carrie's father was displeased. "Regardless, I am a senior.""Oh really?" Jordan snorted with disdain.In this circle, seniority always deferred to those more powerful. Carrie's father was just a minor business owner. Without Debra's invitation, he wouldn't have even been able to set foot here."Mr. Jordan Potter, this woman is just an escort. How can you humiliate my father and me for her? At least we run a business, while she has nothing," Carrie said tearfully.Jordan's gaze became sharper. "Say

    "Will do." Jordan then shouted at those people. "Why aren't you leaving yet?"Carrie's expression changed slightly. "Mr. Andrew Potter, the invitation was sent by your family. We've just arrived. Why are you asking us to leave? Is this how you treat your guests?"Debra had to say this girl was quite blunt.No one had dared to be so bold in front of Andrew."Would you like to experience the hospitality of the Potter family?" Andrew raised his eyes, his gaze deep and unfathomable.He had a faint smile on his face, yet his words sent shivers down everyone's spine.Suddenly, several black-clad bodyguards stepped forward, grabbing the arms of these people and dragging them out.Carrie's high heels fell to the ground as she struggled. "Let go! What are you doing? Let go!"In a short while, the hall fell silent, as if this commotion had never occurred."Sorry for the disturbance." Andrew resumed his gentleness.Debra couldn't help but size up Andrew.In her past life, she hadn't ha

    "Mrs. Nichols didn't say a word from start to finish, but Miss Mathis seemed very angry." Joe paused and added, "Among those present were our people. He mentioned that Miss Miles' classmates stood up for her because of rumors that Mrs. Nichols had seduced Miss Miles' boyfriend."Juan pressed his lips together.Shelia had limited interaction at school, and he had never heard of her having a boyfriend."Go and investigate this matter thoroughly, and also check with the school," he instructed.He didn't usually inquire much about Debra's affairs at Arcane Academy, and Debra had always kept a low profile, so much so that Melody hadn't learned anything. However, the rumor of her being involved in compensated dating didn't seem baseless."Yes, sir." Joe quickly left.Juan pushed open the door to the hospital room and saw that Shelia had already woken up at some point. She looked exhausted as she gazed at Juan, apologizing, "I'm sorry for the trouble.""The doctor said you have low blo

    Debra stared at Andrew. Despite his poor health, he managed the Potter family so well, which was quite daunting."Sir, we've brought her over," a bodyguard announced, leading a seductive woman forward.Debra watched from the sidelines, pretending to sip her drink and expecting some drama.The woman blushed coyly, her eyes showing a hint of seduction.Debra recalled seeing this woman downstairs earlier. She had been trying to get close to Jordan but got rejected."Mr. Andrew Potter, did you summon me for something?" The woman's voice was low and captivating.Debra couldn't help but sneak a few glances. The woman was practically clinging to Andrew, who remained composed with a cold smile."What are you doing? Let go of me!"The woman's arms were tightly held, and she was pinned to the ground. Her earlier allure was all gone."Tell the person behind you. If they think they can gather the Potter family's secrets through women, they're mistaken," Andrew said, his voice devoid of wa

    Debra couldn't quite figure out Andrew's meaning, but one thing was certain. Andrew didn't want her near the terrace.Debra didn't challenge Andrew. She simply nodded politely before heading downstairs.When Debra reached the bottom, she saw Jordan drinking alone near the staircase. Spotting her, he immediately set down his drink and asked, "Why did you go upstairs?""I just needed some fresh air," Debra replied.She noticed a hint of nervousness in Jordan's eyes as she asked, "Doesn't your brother like people going to the second floor?""Not exactly. That's where he discusses business," Jordan replied vaguely.Debra had never been to any party held by the Potter family before, so she wasn't familiar with their customs.But she hadn't been stopped when she went up earlier, suggesting it was tacitly allowed by Andrew. Perhaps he wanted her to learn from the event and stay away from Jordan."It's getting late, and I should leave.""I'll walk you out!""It's okay."Just as Debr

    Debra was taken aback.Andrew's question hit her at just the right moment.If Juan just took her away like this, the Potter family's reputation would be damaged. Andrew naturally would stop him. Otherwise, word would spread that the Potter family feared Juan.By standing up for her, Andrew preserved her dignity and showed everyone that the Potter family wasn't afraid of Juan.But if she chose not to go with Juan, it would turn the Nichols and Potter families into enemies.Juan would lose face, and as his wife, she would lose any future support from the Nichols family.And if this matter was learned by Melody, she wouldn't support Debra, who disgraced the Nichols family.The Potter family would gain a new enemy, distancing themselves from Debra, who couldn't read the situation.Though Andrew's words seemed like a question, there was only one answer for her.She had to go with Juan.That way, both families could settle peacefully, and she would secure the protection of both in

    Drake's logic was persuasive, almost hypnotic.Cathryn found herself wavering. "But Liza... ""She's your friend, right? She'll understand. Besides, this is just a business arrangement, not a real marriage. It's just to create some tension for Marion."Cathryn was convinced. "Alright, I'll prepare the gala. But you must explain everything to Liza afterward.""Okay," Drake replied.But his smile faded as soon as Cathryn left.Kale asked, "Boss, are you really going to explain this to Miss Eaton?""Explain my ass," Drake snorted. "Once I get engaged to her, I'll gain control of the Bernard family's resources. Then I'll have enough power to take on Marion. Who cares about her petty little scandals?"Kale mused, "So, you were fooling her?"Drake explained, "She's the only one left in her family. If it weren't for those resources, do you think I'd even consider an engagement with her? She's clueless. Once she hosts the gala and announces the news to the media, do you think she can

    Drake sneezed in his study.Kale came in and reported, "Miss Bernard is here."Drake waved his hand. "Let her in."Kale opened the door to reveal Cathryn standing hesitantly outside. She had come upon learning that Marion had taken Debra away.Drake glanced at her and read her mind. "She was rescued. Helping you cost me a lot."Cathryn stammered, "Don't make it sound so noble. You did it for yourself.""What now? We're in this together. Marion has learned you collaborated with me to kidnap Debra." Drake rested his cheek on his hand. "But it's not a bad thing. At least, Marion can't ignore you anymore."Cathryn bit her lip, stepping forward. "I know you have other plans. We can't let her stay with Marion. You gotta help me for my father's sake."But the mention of the past only served to annoy Drake.Cathryn quickly added, "If it weren't for my father, you wouldn't have made it to Orkgate or become the Lowe family's adopted son. You owe me."Drake snorted, "You're right. I owe

    She had known for a while that Melody was coming after her. That wasn't a well-kept secret. But seeing it plastered online and climbing the trending charts? That was a whole new level of absurdity."Let me see." Marion emerged from the bathroom, drying his hair.He leaned over, glanced at the phone, and nodded approvingly. "That's catchy.""I'm going to find out which genius published this." Debra's fingers flew over her phone, tracing the story back to its source. When the name of New Age popped up on her screen, she froze."New Age?" she murmured, remembering that it was Garland's news agency."Something wrong?" Marion asked.Debra blinked. "I spent 50 million dollars to buy that newspaper. So..." Her own company had just broken a report on her. That was the next level....In the study room, Garland was livid, yelling into his phone, "What were you thinking? Are you people brain-dead? Who let you publish that story? And then you dumped ad money into it too? Did you want t

    "Those things aside, you need to explain something to me. What's going on with your post?" Juan placed his phone in front of Garland.He had only just seen it while walking from the study to the hallway. Garland had managed to edit and post it in that short period. The post read: [Shocking: Ex-husband's Grandmother Travels Thousands of Miles to Kill Me.]Garland was lost for words. He had forgotten to set it private.Juan demanded, "Are you going to delete it, or should I?""I'll do it." Garland grabbed his phone and logged into his alternative account.He clicked open the post, only to find that it had garnered over 99 likes.He hesitated. "How about we don't delete it?"With so many likes, the news must have spread like wildfire among his gossip-hungry peers.He added, "No one knows who I'm talking about anyway."But as soon as his voice died away, several comments popped up under the post.Love2Fly: [Bro, are you referring to Melody Nichols as the grandmother?]JusticeS

    Suppressing the swirl of emotions brewing inside, he asked, "You mean, Juan's ex-wife?""Yes, it's her. She has brought nothing but misfortune to my family, and I won't allow her to keep deceiving Juan and ruining everything," she said, her voice rising with agitation.Seeing her get so worked up, Garland advised her, "Take it easy, Mrs. Nichols Sr. This matter is tricky, and we need to think carefully.""I know," Melody sighed. "Marion has been a thorn in your side. He even sent Liza back by force. The grudges run deep between you and him. If you were to get rid of Debra, it would be justice for all the grief they've caused us."Garland nearly rolled his eyes. 'Justice? Easy for you to say.'He didn't know where she got the idea of a feud between Marion and them.He believed some brainless reporters had spun the story. Now he was more convinced that the media needed an overhaul.With that thought, he replied, "That will take time and careful planning. But if it's Juan you want

    Juan replied, "Just don't go too far."Garland straightened up. "Alright, let me handle this old..."Juan glanced at him, and he corrected himself. "I mean, Mrs. Nichols Sr."Turning to the mirror, he started to adjust his clothes.He put on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, ensuring he looked perfect before smoothing his hair.Dropping his usual playful smile, he said, "Verna, to the study.""Yes, sir." Verna led Garland out.In the study, Garland sat behind the desk, trying out several poses before settling on a more relaxed one. Verna announced, "Sir, Mrs. Nichols Sr. is here.""Alright," Garland acknowledged. "Show her in."Verna opened the door, and Melody entered in a white dress. She carried herself with the grace of a noblewoman from a bygone era.Garland looked her over, impressed that she had maintained her appearance so well at her age.'Bert has good taste, though she doesn't look like my mother at all,' he thought. 'But why did rumors have it that my mother was her

    The maid hesitated. "Mr. Fermin Eaton is often busy with company matters, so he's rarely home.""Is he home today?""Uh...""What? Don't tell me no one is at home."The maid stammered, "Mr. Fermin Eaton is home, but he's busy with work. He might not be able to see you right now."Melody insisted, "Is this how you treat your guests? Go tell Mr. Fermin Eaton that if he doesn't come to see me, I'll pack my things and leave immediately."Her tone left no room for negotiation. The maid could only nod and leave to deliver the message.In the bedroom, Garland was upside-down, reciting lines from economic textbooks.The maid opened the door and froze at the sight. "Mr. Fermin Eaton, you're doing this again."Garland's pained voice broke through. "Verna, perfect timing. A little help here."But not far off, Juan cut him off. "Ten more minutes. Hold it.""I can't. I'm about to collapse.""If you collapse, get back up and keep going.""This is brutal."Verna interjected, "Mr. Nichol

    The cleaners were devastated, and Lara turned even paler.Drake sat on the sofa and said, "Why are you back here? What are you up to?""Boss, I'm sorry I messed up, but I swear, I didn't say anything," Lara pleaded."Is that so?" Drake scoffed. "I'd be a fool to believe you.""I'm telling the truth," Lara said. "They brought me back to get rid of me. You can't fall for their trap."Drake pondered her words. "Whose idea was it to send you back? Debra's or Marion's?""It was Mrs. Houston's idea," Lara replied.Drake nodded. "Well then, you can stay."The quick change in his attitude took Lara aback."Boss, isn't this a bit hasty?" Kale interjected."Do you think so?""Yes.""Then go to my office and print out a new contract for her. Sign it, stamp it, and then it won't be hasty anymore.""Boss...""Do it.""Yes, boss."Lara watched Kale leave, still in disbelief."Go upstairs. You don't need to clean.""Then what should I do?""Whatever you want. Can you order takeout?

    Debra pulled Marion's hand away. "Alright, no more talk like that."Outside, the night deepened. Lara stood at the gates of the Lowe Mansion, hesitating to enter.The security guards spotted her. "Lara?"Lara froze in place. Her first instinct was to run away, but a glance toward the shadows revealed Marion's men watching her intently.Caught between flight and surrender, she noticed a black car slowly emerging from the gates. Her gaze drifted to the figure in the back seat, and she stopped cold.'Juan? What is he doing here?'Before she could make sense of it, Kale, who was escorting Juan out, noticed her presence.He demanded, "What are you doing back here?"Lara was startled and instinctively took a step back. Her face went pale as she stammered, "Mr. Mclean, it's Marion and Debra. They sent me back.""Sent you back?" Kale was skeptical. "Come inside.""Okay." Lara paused and explained urgently, "I didn't tell them anything. They brought me back and left."Kale didn't eve
