Chapter 30

If it weren't for Rosalie suspecting Debra, plus the disappearance of two billion dollars, he wouldn't have made this call.

After Ralph hung up the phone, Debra couldn't help but sneer.

She didn't expect Rosalie to covet her father's legacy so early. At the slightest suspicion, Rosalie urged Ralph to check her bank accounts.

Apparently, this was premeditated.

Debra called the bank, and a receptionist answered the call. "Ms. Frazier, how can I help you?"

"I want to transfer my assets to another account."

"Okay, we'll assign a specialist to assist you."

"If anyone from my family inquires about my assets, please ask for my permission first," Debra reminded her.

"Understood, Ms. Frazier."

Debra hung up the phone.

That piece of land cost her two billion dollars, and there wasn't much left in her bank account. Her father's inheritance had been stored in this account, known only to Ralph.

She didn't expect Ralph to tell Rosalie about such an important matter.

    Marion splurged on the apartment, and the price was high because it wasn't just in any school district. It was around an elite school.With those thoughts in mind, Randy shot a sharp glance at Marion in the rearview mirror."What were you saying?" Debra didn't catch it.Marion chimed in, "He said it's fine, not too pricey."Suddenly, the car made a sharp turn and stopped. The inertia threw her into a pair of broad arms, and then a steady voice sounded from above her."Randy, easy on the speed!""Got it!"Inwardly, he grumbled, 'Romance over bromance!'The car stopped outside a high-end complex across from Arcane Academy. Marion handed an electronic card to Debra. "Your personal information is already recorded. Just swipe it to enter and exit. This complex is highly private. Most residents here are prominent figures, and you can expand your friend circle."Debra glanced at the complex.When she had decided to come to Arcane Academy, she had considered renting here.To describ

    Debra arrived at the school in the afternoon for registration. Though dressed casually, she still caught everyone's eye."Wow, she's pretty. Is she a freshman?""Have you seen her before? Is she even from our school?""I think I saw her during the entrance exam. Must be a freshman."Whispers followed Debra as she walked through the campus.A handsome guy approached her. "Hey, are you new here?"Debra nodded. "Sort of.""Need help finding your dorm? Want me to take you there?""No need, I'm a day student.""Alright, how about I take you to registration? I'm a junior, and Building #1 is for freshmen.""Actually, I'm going to Building #2.""Building #2?" the boy repeated, puzzled."Exactly!" Debra confirmed."But isn't that for graduate students?" the boy asked wonderingly.He scrutinized Debra, who looked like any other young woman in her early twenties. He couldn't imagine her among those older, more serious graduate students. After all, it normally took at least three to

    'With her looks, she could go anywhere. Why did she have to come to Arcane Academy's finance department?' Wendy thought.She said to Shelia, "I think she's here to compete with you, trying to steal your boyfriend."Shelia turned pale, her mind elsewhere.Debra's arrival meant a risk of her lies being exposed."Shelia? What's wrong?" Carrie waved a hand in front of Shelia's eyes.Shelia snapped out of it. "I-I'm fine. I suddenly feel unwell, so I won't go to class this afternoon."On her bed, Shelia pondered how Debra managed to get into Arcane Academy.'Could it be that Debra didn't rely on Juan but paid her way into Arcane Academy?'The thought made Shelia clutch her blanket, a surge of anger coursing through her.Years of hard work secured Shelia's place at Arcane Academy. But for some, wealth paved the way to dreams she'd toiled for. She couldn't accept it.After everyone left the dorm, she called Juan, who answered after a while.Before this, no matter how busy he was,

    But now...Shelia wondered if Debra was the reason for this change.But as far as she remembered, Juan hated Debra."No, I cannot let her steal Juan away. Absolutely not!"...Debra arrived early in the classroom. There weren't many graduate students; there was just one class each year in the Finance Department.These people were either wealthy or exceptionally intelligent.Debra sat in the back row, intending to keep a low profile. If this were found out, Melody would surely cause a scene here at school.Suddenly, the classroom door burst open.Several boys sitting in the front frowned, ready to complain. But upon seeing who entered, they all fell silent.Debra raised her head and looked over.There stood Jordan in casual sportswear, looking relaxed and carefree.Debra furrowed her brow, wondering what he was doing there.As far as she remembered, Jordan had turned in a blank exam paper.The dean of students greeted Jordan politely, "Mr. Jordan Potter, you can sit in the

    In response to Jordan's meaningful smile, Debra replied indifferently, "No."Jordan was surprised. "You don't want to know?""Not interested."No matter who the professor was, she just needed to behave and graduate smoothly."Do you know who I am?""Mr. Jordan Potter, as the dean just mentioned.""Yet you dare to speak to me like this?"Debra turned her head, looking seriously at Jordan. "Well, we're in class right now."Jordan scrutinized her, about to approach and continue the conversation, when Randy pushed up his glasses and pointed at Jordan from the podium.Randy felt obliged to protect the woman favored by his buddy.Jordan frowned, but surprisingly, didn't get angry at Randy.Everyone tacitly understood. Arcane Academy, known for its elite student body, employed influential figures like Randy to manage these privileged students where ordinary professors failed.Randy was backed by Marion.Marion seemed to have no influence there, but since Caleb acknowledged his id

    "Don't worry, I've got it under control. Thanks anyway," said Debra, adjusting her backpack and leaving the classroom.Randy was right. She had deliberately approached Jordan.Everyone knew how ruthless Andrew was, but few knew that Jordan would become someone even more formidable. Making friends with Jordan early on would pave the way to her future success.But Jordan was different from others. He abhorred flattery and forced friendliness.In essence, Jordan was like Juan. She had tried so hard to please Juan, only to be despised by him.But if she ignored them, they would pursue her relentlessly.So, Debra took another path to avoid meeting Jordan.As dusk fell, Debra woke up feeling groggy, only to discover it was pouring outside.Being prone to illness since childhood, rainy days always triggered a fever.Preparing to buy medicine, she noticed a note on the bedside cabinet, detailing the medications inside.Opening the drawer, she found cold, fever, and pain relief medici

    Jordan frowned, turning to see Juan holding an umbrella.Apart from his brother, few in Seamar City had such a presence."Juan?" Jordan snorted. "Why should I listen to you?""Because I'm her husband," Juan replied, his deep eyes carrying a dangerous edge.Jordan froze in place.Juan tossed the umbrella aside and took Debra from Jordan's arms. Joe raised an umbrella and followed Juan closely.Jordan remained dazed.He couldn't believe Debra was Juan's wife.In the hospital room, Debra stirred awake to the same gloomy, rainy weather outside.She vaguely remembered being stopped by Jordan at the entrance of Building #2 but had no idea what happened afterward.Debra struggled to sit up and saw Juan sleeping on his hand."Ms. Frazier, you're awake." Joe entered the room with a briefcase.Juan opened his eyes and saw Debra awake on the bed.Debra looked at his tired face, asking, "You brought me to this hospital?"Juan didn't respond to her question. Joe took out a laptop from

    The look in Juan's eyes made Debra realize there was no point in protesting anymore.If she continued to challenge him, he could force her to go home today.Debra took a deep breath.A wise woman knew when to yield, and sometimes patience was the best strategy."Alright," Debra said. "I'll be home at least twice a week. Is that okay?""Three times," he countered.Debra was about to get angry but held back at his gaze.Being a graduate student at Arcane Academy wasn't overly demanding academically, and going home three times a week wasn't an insurmountable issue. Juan must have consulted the principal.Debra adjusted her attitude and forced a smile at Juan. "Three times it is. Anything else, Mr. Nichols?""You must come home whenever I call. Joe will escort you."Taking another deep breath, Debra continued smiling. "No problem. Anything else?""Not for now."It implied there might be more conditions in the future.Suddenly, Debra felt like studying at Arcane Academy had giv

    Ivan instinctively tried to step back but stopped himself, remembering his mission to earn her trust.Debra noticed his subtle movement and raised an eyebrow. It looked like he was still reeling from the fear of getting hit.Marion came downstairs and approached them. Ivan quickly retreated."Saw that earlier," Marion murmured."Just messing with him," Debra said, chuckling. "He thought he could win me over by playing innocent. Scared stiff but trying not to show it. Hilarious.""Was it so fun?" Marion flicked her forehead. "Not worried I'd get jealous?""He's just a kid. Why would you?" She flashed her phone at him. "This is what you should worry about."Marion glanced at the viral news headline. His expression stayed neutral until he spotted Juan and Andrew's names."Give me a minute.""What're you doing?""Taking them down."He pulled out his phone, fingers flying across the screen.Debra bit back a laugh at his intensity. Just then, her phone rang. It was Ben."Let me

    Barton pushed open the door and entered Andrew's bedroom. "Sir, Mrs. Houston has found all the ledgers.""I see." Andrew nodded.Barton hesitated. "Sir, the mastermind will act soon. Should we...""Life goes on. No need to borrow trouble," Andrew replied. "You can go now."After Barton left, the gauzy curtains fluttered in the breeze.Andrew gazed at the dark sky outside and whispered, "This time, I'm here with you."...The next morning, Debra grabbed her bag, ready to go to work.Ivan blocked her path. "Mrs. Houston, have you eaten breakfast?""Not hungry, thanks." She sidestepped him.He scrambled in front of her again. "Maybe a sandwich?"Debra forced a polite smile. "I'm really not hungry."Ivan blocked her a third time. "Coffee, maybe?"Debra dropped her bag. "Out with it. What's going on?"Ivan looked torn. Debra crossed her arms. "No? Then I'm leaving.""Wait." Ivan quickly took out his phone. "There's news. Today's headlines."Debra snatched the phone. The scre

    Marion's gaze turned icy when he saw Drake blocking Debra's path.Drake glared. "I wasn't done talking.""'Finished now,' Marion said coolly.Drake turned to Debra. "I need to..."She waved dismissively. "I'm going to hit the sack. You should too."Debra walked off, and Marion closed the door for him.Drake lunged forward, but Kale held him back."Boss, your injuries..." "Screw the injuries. Let me at him."Marion opened the door, deadpan. "Don't like it closed? I'll leave it open.""Damn..." Kale clamped a hand over Drake's mouth.It was not wise to fight Marion there at the Potter Mansion. Besides, they hadn't gotten the Lowe Group back.Back in their room, Debra smirked at Marion. "Thought you weren't worried. Why eavesdrop?"Marion pulled her close. "How could I not worry?""Then why let me talk to him alone?" She tilted her head. "I know you're jealous."He pressed his lips together. "I don't want to restrain your freedom. It was just a talk. He couldn't steal

    "What's the fuss?" Debra said.Drake hesitated. "I..." Outside, Erica and Randy shoved past Kale, ducking behind Marion.Kale initially tried to block them but retreated under Marion's icy glare.Inside, Drake noticed the door was slightly ajar. He scowled. "Hold on."Before Debra could react, he yanked the door open, exposing the three eavesdroppers.Debra raised an eyebrow. 'Really?'Erica cringed, looking at Randy. Randy pointed at Marion, and Marion blinked innocently.Debra smiled at them, slammed the door shut, and locked it.Randy gaped. "Did you hear that? She locked us out."Marion's jaw tightened."Let's go." Erica dragged Randy down the hall.Inside the room, Debra muttered, "We're alone now. Spit it out."Drake silently stared at her, and she shifted uncomfortably. "Do you have things to say or not?"Drake awkwardly cleared his throat. "Do you know Fermin likes you?"Debra barely flinched. "Yeah. Why?""You know?" Drake looked like his brain short-circuite

    Everyone snapped to attention, flipping through the records. But the entries were pretty much the same—lists of expenses for rice, oil, flour, and other mundane supplies."Any maps or codes?" Randy scratched his head.Erica smacked the ledger. "Nothing. Just numbers and grocery lists."Debra traced a column of figures. "Right, numbers!"Erica was puzzled. "Numbers? How's that a treasure map?"Randy muttered, "Could it be that we've been thinking in the wrong direction? Maybe this isn't a treasure map after all?"Erica echoed, "Could it really be, like the elders said, just an account book that we've somehow turned into a myth?"As the group agonized, Drake finally snapped. "Debra, we need to talk.""Hm? About what?""Let's talk outside.""Can't say it here?""Outside." Drake stormed out. Debra sighed, turning to Marion. "Can I?"Erica and Randy glanced at him nervously.Marion nodded. "Go ahead."Erica and Randy gaped. 'No jealousy?' The second Debra left, Erica hiss

    The dust on the lock was uneven. Clearly, someone had opened it recently.Marion pulled out an old key. "These locks are century-old designs. No key, no entry."He clicked it open, revealing rows of tablets. The hall was wider than that of the Fraziers.Debra hesitated. She'd never properly paid respects here since marrying Marion."Mom, Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma," Marion said softly, squeezing her hand. "I'm here with Debra."Debra tightened her grip. "We're here to visit you guys. Please watch over us. Help us find who's targeting the four families.""They will." Marion nodded. "Let's find the ledger."To her surprise, it sat under a pillar, barely hidden. "This isn't exactly hard to find.""Getting in is the challenge." Marion checked the ledger's age. "Let's head back. See if combining all four families' records reveals anything."If the ledgers combined meant a map, they'd be one step closer to the treasure.At Potter Mansion, Erica glanced at her watch and gaped. "Back

    Drake's face darkened. "What nonsense are you spouting?""If you're not a spy, why stare at Mrs. Houston? I stare because I like her. You too?"Garland's words made Drake bark a laugh. "You like Debra?"Though shaky, Garland puffed his chest. "Yeah. I confessed to her right in front of Marion, and she let me look. You? Suspicious."Drake clenched his teeth. "Is Debra out of her mind?""See? You're the shady one." Garland jabbed a finger. "Admit it. You've got a crush.""Kale." Drake yanked open the locked door and shoved Garland out. "Get him out of my face.""Yes, boss.""Hey. Don't get mad just because I called you out. Drake, you're just..." "Gag him." When Kale returned, Drake paced angrily."This guy's identity is questionable. Should I...""He is not Fermin, but why is Debra keeping him around?""But Miss Eaton calls him brother. Maybe they're twins?""Twins?""Explains the mismatch. The other one is a genius, and this one a clueless idiot.""Clueless and blin

    Before Garland could react, Drake had already shoved him into the room and pinned him against the door.Garland gulped nervously. 'What the hell? I'm not into guys.'"What's this about? This closeness is a bit much," Garland laughed awkwardly, trying to duck.But Drake flipped the lock with one hand and blocked his escape with the other.Garland's heart dropped. 'Gosh! Is Drake really gay?'"Back off! I'm straight.""What the hell are you babbling about?""You dragged me here alone. Isn't it obvious you want to..." Realization hit Drake. His face darkened, and he smacked Garland's head. "You think I'd hit on you? I'd need brain damage first.""Then why the sneaky moves? And why'd you hit me?" Garland hopped back, indignant."Cut the act. You're not Fermin." Drake got straight to the point.Garland stiffened but doubled down. "Of course, I am. We've fought before. You know my face.""I don't know what game you're playing, but Juan is in it with you," Drake hissed."Juan?

    Edgar's face twisted like Randy had hit a nerve.Randy smirked, "Know your place, Edgar. We're being nice by chatting. Push us, and we'll demand repayment. You'd be jumping off a building by noon.""Why are you rapping so much?" Erica sulked.Randy mimed zipping his lips.Debra turned to Ivan, who'd been hovering near the kitchen. "Escort Mr. Odom to the guest room upstairs. The one at the end. He prefers privacy."As Ivan approached, the bruises on his neck from Debra's strike were still visible.Drake narrowed his eyes, figuring out her plan to isolate the two.Once they were gone, Debra tapped the table. "The ledger."Randy shrugged silently.Erica kicked his shin. "The ledger." "You told me to shut up.""Want another kick?""It's in your bag. You forgot."Erica blinked, then dug through her bag. "Got too intrigued by the story."She then placed the Osborne family's ledger on the table.Debra compared it to the Fraizer and Potter records. "Only the Houston family le
